A double vinyl edition of "Dreams of San
Antonio" vinyl album featuring full
versions of a selection of 13 tracks
from the mix CD released earlier this
summer.
'Dreams Of San Antonio' is an
alternative version of the Balearic
sound and takes in fantastical genres
like Bongo Rock, Acid Disco, Psych
Reggae and Far Flung Folk.
The term 'Balearic' when attributed to
musical style often leaves the most
ardent music aficiandos scratching their
heads in a confused sweat. Attempting to
sum up an infinite set of sounds from
disparate backgrounds and eras is no
easy task. The original manifesto of
what makes something 'Balearic' is a
loose definition : there are no rules,
anything is everything if you keep under
122BPM.
Dom Thomas embarks on his fourth Brutal
Music sonic adventure, celebrating the
ambiguity of the genre to craft a
sublime personal journey through his own
skewed vision of the Balearic sound. A
fantasy trip through Balearic Beat,
Bongo Rock, Acid Disco and Far Flung
Folk. A misty-eyed look back to the
embrionic days of Pacha and Cafe del Mar
married with dreamy images of Barbet
Schroeder's 69 Ibizian paean 'More'.
Dom provides several tracks including
dubbed up, smudged and tweaked takes on
some deeply psyched-out balearica
alongside some essential productions
cherry picked from his collection.
Surely not to be missed are the early
seventies canadian pop hit "Ani Kuni" by
Madeline Chartrand, a rocking electric
sitar driven, glam'd up version of a
native american folk song.
Nora Dean's beguiling "Angie La La", a
highly unusual blend of reggae and
psychedelia released as the flip to a
URoy track on Treasure Isle in the 80's.
Unpretentious French hippie-folk by
ilous & Decuyper taken from their
classic 1971 album, sounding reminiscent
of Crosby Stills & Nash or pastoral
early Pink Floyd.
Mark Fry's "Mandolin Man", a rare
mystical acid-folk production from 1972
originally only released in Italy.
