Que Bel Epoque and both the Salvador CD and 12"

WE CAN KILL THREE WITH ONE HERE. THE 2006 SALVADOR CD IS ESSENTIALLY AN RV GREATEST (FLOOR) HITS COMP. ITS GOT ALL FOUR TRACKS FROM THE QUE BEL EPOQUE AND SALVADOR 12S (SUPERIOR MIXES IN THE CASE OF QBE & LUGOM-IX). IT ALSO INCLUDES UNFLUG (WHICH DATES BACK TO 92

) AND THERE'S A REMIX OF A SENOR COCONUT TRACK THROWN IN FOR GOOD MEASURE.

RICARDO VILLALOBOS - SALVADOR (2006 CD)

TRACKLIST:
1 QUE BELLE EPOQUE 2006 (REMIX) (12:57)
2 TEMPURA (10:29)
3 SUESSE CHECQUES (7:17)
4 UNFLUG (6:51)
5 LAZER@PRESENT (7:31)
6 LOGOHITZ (7:51)
7 LUGOM-IX (REMIX)(11:18)
8 SEÑOR COCONUT ELECTROLATINO (RICARDO VILLALOBOS' 'LECKTRO CARIÑO MIX) (15:30)

LAZER @ PRESENT IS THE FIRST RV TRACK I HEARD SO IT ALWAYS HAS A SPECIAL PLACE (I BOUGHT THE QBE 12 AFTER HEARING HIS HORRORIST REMIX). ELECTROLATINO IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF HIS REDUCTIVE/EXPANSIVE REMIX ETHOS AND, AS USUAL, IT ENDS UP SURPASSING THE SOURCE MATERIAL.

Man, these tracks are something else. Once you pop, the fun don't stop.

According to XLR8R, Villalobo's last visit to the US was 8 years ago.

Could you possibly upload For Disco Only?

Been looking for it for ages!

Thanks in advance.

Nice request. A distinctly trippy twosome and a personal favourite.

Bizarre yet oddly functional mutant funk - a ten second hard-tech interlude here, disembodied operatic wailing there, a completely incongruous yet strangely effective Philip Glass sample, totally mental time signatures, its got the lot:

A1 Morphunk

When I get particularly excited, I call him a genius. Achso and Alcachofa are of the greatest techno achievements I've ever heard.

Thanks for that.

I've got Villalobos' remix of Shackleton - Blood on my Hands (which topped the RA best remix of 2007 http://www.residentadvisor.net/feature-read.aspx?id=867) if anyone wants it.

TheTom

Jun 2 2008, 04:13 AM

Pieter, do you happen to have Odd Machine - We Brought Our Friends? (it was a collaboration between Villalobos and Tobias Freund, for anyone that didn't know)

Bruegs

Jun 2 2008, 05:18 AM

Please, call me Bruegel.

When I bought this I didn't really get it but returning to it a few months later it clicked. The first few minutes of To Learn More are like an opiated variety of musique concrète and the vocal sample reminds me of the one used by Orbital on Philosophy by Numbers. As the layers build it gets progressively more trippy and sort of shoots its load at the end. The title tracks got some beautiful tribal timbres and a percolating, swampy feel.

Odd Machine - We Brought Our Friends

Tracks:
A To Learn More
B We Brought Our Friends

Never got round to upping this. Haven't got much time to say anything about it. Needless to say it’s the elongated tripulations you would expect:

Ricardo Villalobos - Vasco Pt.1

Tracklisting:
A Minimoonstar (13:10)
B Minimoonstar (Shackleton Remix) (9:46)
C Electonic Water (12:57)
D Electonic Water (San Proper's 'It Ate My Quarter' Mix) (8:23)

Vurt, you will probably really like Flora & Fauna, the Eulberg album Im in the process of upping to the Now Playing thread.

There was something else I meant to rec to you too but its temporarily left my mind.

Eulberg is someone I've always meant to check out, so thanks again! Any recommendations of yours are always welcome, whenever you remember them.

Bruegs

Jun 11 2008, 08:58 PM

It came back to me. The last two STL 12's are very good. Genuinely minimal but really infectious deep house. Simple, yet slightly unsettling melodies. Ill get em up some time.

TheTom

Jun 12 2008, 09:01 AM

Bruegel

Cheers heaps for your uploads. Thanks to you I'm filling in the gaps of my Villalobos collection.

And holy fuck, im loving Minimoonstar SOOO much.

Trying not to be a pain (and this'll be the last one for a while, I promise...), could you upload Alcachofa Tools?

Thanks.

Bruegs

Jun 12 2008, 10:47 AM

If you've got the cd version of Alcachofa you've got 2/3rds of Alcachofa Tools because Fools Garden (Black Conga) and Waiworinao appear on that. Tools was put out so that djs could have vinyl versions of all the Alcachofa tracks.

Here is the third track on Tools:

Ricardo Villalobos - Bach to Back

Alcachofa is still his best full-length by my reckoning.

Jun 12 2008, 09:13 PM

Cheers, that was the track i was after!

Has Vasco EP Part 2 been released yet?

I've seen reviews of it popping up in various places.

Bruegs

Sep 24 2008, 04:41 AM

Yeah, part 2 is out. It just has amazordum and a Baby Ford remix of the same track.

The Vasco 1+2 CD should be upon us soon. That's got the full 30min+ minimoonstar session, longer edits of electronic water and amazordrum and a new track called skinfummel. It was supposed to come out on the 8th but still no sign. There is a promo floating about but its just 5 minute edits

TheTom

Sep 25 2008, 06:43 AM

Well, I'm surprised it hasn't been uploaded ANYwhere yet. only those promotional edits.

I think they have a future with Pitchfork
