A video about the record stores in Belgium I visited on and around Record Store Day and the exclusives I was able to pick up. Visited record shops: georgeandthebear musicmaniagent vynilla/ craterecords 320.records

I went to the AB venue in Brussels three times in 5 days for live shows from Autechre, Oneohtrix Point Never (a pre- and after show of the BRDCST Festival) and the mighty Thundercat. Three very different experiences. The video contains flashing images, so be warned.

Nice. Cannot go wrong with Boney M😀
Oh yes you can! But not with that album 😂
Great information on this label and these artists!!
Thanks, Scottie! Plan to do more like these, focussing on artists or labels… instead of the usual “look-how-much-money-I-spent” bragging 😅😎
I just got that Amaro Freitas record last week, it was very dang good.
Glad you enjoy! It is indeed a beautiful listen.
hey Fred. I was really late to the party, but catching up. Fortunately Warp is keeping many titles in print. In addition to the electronic artists you mentioned, I also appreciate Warp reissuing the Boards of Canada, Stereolab and Broadcast catalogs. This video has given me lots to add to the wantlist. I’d love to see a video on Too Pure titles if you’re so inclined. Thanks!
Hey @Russel.S the three bands you mentioned are definitely among the best! Too Pure is a label I know of but I don’t have any of their releases. I do have the albums by Seefeel but only their stuff on Warp - another great band in the label’s catalog by the way.
kinda jealous of your copy of Polygon Window! That album really needs an re-release indeed, that would be a good one for records storeday! :)
Love polygon window and the others pseudonymes : afx, gak....
I think I saw a copy of Polygon Window in a store, used copy, but I had no idea what it was, so I passed on it. It wasn't that expensive, either. I have Black Dog Productions "Bytes", picked it up recently because I already had "Spanners" by The Black Dog. I have Plaid as well. Get rid the that plastic sleeve! It will off-gas and ruin the vinyl. These were all recent acquisitions, within the last 6 months. I started listening to electronic in the 70s with Tangerine Dream, but I missed a lot of the acid house that developed in the late 80s and early 90s - though I've been recently adding it. Just a couple weeks ago I picked up that Fuse release. I'll have to seek out Plastic Man (is that what you said?).
Yes, I saw that you picked up FUSE and Black Dog in your videos. Now go back to that store and pick up Polygon Window!! :-) And yes, Richie Hawtin is probably best known as Plastikman. The album I have is 'Musik' from 1995.
Hello, nice selection, great collection ! Warp is so important to me...I also discovered Autechre with "Tri Repetae ", I only have the Polygon Window on CD, a quite forgotten album I think...I didn't know about the Artificial Intelligence 2 ! Thanks for the memories 😉
Happy re-discovery!
Great walk through! As a Swede I was also always "a little late to the party" back then. Information about these releases (and similiar) was not always easy accessable. Nowadays I listen way more to the AI 2 compilation then the first one. Do you also have the video that was released at the same time? I love its 90's 3d graphics which complements the music perfectly. DId you say that there is a reissue of AI 2 coming? Can't find any information about it.
Thanks for the reaction! No, there's no reissue of AI2 or Polygon Window announced... only albums in the series haven't had a reissue yet.
What a magical series of albums, they still hold up just as good. Still some of my all-time favorite music. Interestingly, in the US at the time, the albums 'Virtual State' by Richard H Kirk (RIP) and 'Azimuth' by Kenny Larkin were marketed as part of the A.I. series. If you like the A.I. series, I highly recommend checking them out.
As a dedicated collector, I have those albums actually. Had I known they were marketed as part of the A.I. series in the US, I would have mentioned them. I think the albums were released through Sire Records in the US, right?
@@spectrum_archives No, Wax Trax/TVT. I'm just basing this on a flyer included in the CD that advertised the A.I. series, it included them. And I think the hype sticker on the Kenny Larkin album, IIRC. Maybe Warp intended to include them in the series, but then decided to make them their own thing, but Wax Trax kept to the original marketing? Who knows
Black Dog, Autechre and B12 were some of the most important releases that have come around in my lifetime. I really wonder how i would have discovered avant-garde electronic music without them. Before these releases, electronic music meant the techno and house sounds that i heard from Detroit, Chicago and London. Warp helped me get...warped. Lol. It was difficult back then for me - i had very few friends that shared my passion for electronic music. Connecting the dots from suburban detroit forced me to find those "brave new waves" that were happening around the globe. Great video. Thanks for sharing your path to the music. Cheers! Shawn
Thanks for the feedback, Shawn!
This is a stunning book - I have it and its well worth getting.
i have that urbie green album, !
I bought it for the stunning cover art and happened to like the music too. Win-win!
Ordered months ago . But looks like I'll be reordering from somewhere else, being let down. Plus it's not worth £100. I already have all the albums and CDs from the j jazz lists
Well, it started out as a kickstarter, so it was sold/announced before being made. Hence the wait, but well worth it in my opinion. Similar to the books Soul Jazz Records have released in the past on Bossa Nova, Cuban Music and Spiritual Jazz (Freedom, Rhythm & Sound). Cool to have if you like graphic design and record sleeve art.
I might have to get this! Cool stuff
Phan ....... tastic! Congrats!
Your Parliament record is on my want list.. Somehow I have missed finding a good copy, might as well get a repress eventually. You have refined taste in quality records and artists, good to see all of these records that I know little about ! I buy from Jackpot and Drastic Plastic, although.. Not so much, lately Cheers from Nevada 🙏
Thanks for you reaction and sorry for my late reply. Indeed, all those early Parliament / Funkadelic records are hard to find, especially over here in Europe.
In the mid-70s, my cousins boyfriend Robert from Detroit managed Funkadelic, Parlament, and Rare Earth. I met him in Las Vegas , a really nice guy, and he was in love with my cousin ! ( I never got any records out of him, though ) LoL !! 👍
Hi Fred. Going to check out Ottla Vogel. That sounds as intriguing album. Great video. Cheers. /Paul
Hello Paul @XjunkieNL ! Yes there’s cool stuff happening on the Belgian Jazz front. I need to do a video about that. Ottla’s album is really good and I will definitely check out the new one from De Beren Gieren. If you like Jazz with an African twist, Black Flower is the go-to band.
Hi Neighbor :) Just discovered your new channel. Cool! Been ages I've been looking for an original Red Clay, maybe I should jump the MOV release. All the best. /Paul
Howdy Neighbour! 😎 Thanks for watching. Indeed, an OG Red Clay is almost impossible to find (or afford) and MOV have really upped the quality of their reissues in the past couple of years.
Awesome stuff!!
Thank you, Sir! Glad you enjoyed it 😎
Pour la part je n'ai rien compris... 😂😂😂😂 Je te taquine.... 😉
Merci pour l’effort 😅
Hi Fred! Nice job with this video. So many records I never heard of! Thanks for posting a list that I can refer back to in the description. Cool to see Tropical shop.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Arnaldo! I try to show a record store in every video, like I did on record store day or my March vinyl pickups. Think it's fun and the store owners really appreciate it.
Have you ever heard McCoy Tyner’s live album ‘Atlantis’? The 18 minute opening track ‘Atlantis’ is about as good as it gets, it’s like a funky ‘A Love Supreme’
No, I need to check that! Thanks @Harrispilton22
@@spectrum_archives yeah you need to. 2 minutes in and Atlantis seriously goes off!
Salut fred... Alors j'ai a peu pres compris ce que tu avais dit🤣🤣 et j'ai noté quelques references que tu as presentés... On va aller ecouter ca... Thank you my friend, good video👍👍
Haha merci pour regarder quand même! ;-) J'espère que vous y retrouverez quelque chose d'intéressant.
Mr scruff 😍
Ooouuiii, voir aussi son album 'Trouser Jazz' qui a aussi eu un réédition l'année dernière.

Great finds Fred! That Trident album is a favourite by Tyner. The harpsichord really makes it sound otherworldly. Tical has aged pretty well, was a daring mix at the time. Not heard that latest Ill Considered album. Their drummer Emre is an old mate. We played in 4 or 5 bands together years ago. Lovely guy and amazing drummer.. can play virtually anything or any style! I remember phoning him a while ago to get him in a new band ( just to play small clubs/pubs) and he said “sorry Ed, am working with Shakira at the moment”! 😂
@Ed-Topo-108 thanks for watching! Yes, Ill Considered are great.
Lo Borges, killer Lp
@bigstar1000 Yes! I really hope the double album with Milton Nascimento 'Clube de Esquina' gets a repress too
I got the Johnny Lytle too, what a scorching session!
I love Ill Considered and their other project Wild Flower, just incredible modern avant jazz. So freaking dynamic
@bigstar1000 impossible to keep up with their output...
and some other good jazz records you got!!
Mccoy Tyner, cool,i actually havent came across any mccoy tyner records yet, cool, fred!
lovely shops and interesting eclectic pickups. Big fan of that Clerkin trio lp too. Hoping they repress their other records.
Hello Dom @seekingathread thanks for watching! A couple of days ago, I noticed that a repress of the Tara Clerkin back catalog was listed in the Bleep newsletter.
It's great that you had so much going on musically! Thanks for sharing your impressions... By the way: I also got the Nightmares on Wax. There really are a lot of gimmicks involved. Very lovingly done...
@vinylund thanks for watching! Warp did a great job with the reissue of 'Smokers Delight' so I really wanted this one too.
Leo Smith! Nice!
Yes! After listening to it now, very happy I picked it up. So beautiful.
Beste Frederik, Je laatste woorden en conclusie over RSD komen recht uit mijn mond, precies hoe ik erover denk. Het zijn ook de redenen waarom Vynilla, ooit fervent voortrekker van RSD in België, het nu een pak rustiger aanpakt. Het aanbod in de winkel was eerder beperkt, omdat ik absoluut niet met overstock wil opgescheept zitten. Ongeveer 95% van mijn RSD verkoop waren dan ook reserveringen voor klanten. Ik heb genoten van je reportage, fijn werk!
@bobdriege426 Jouw aanpak is zeer begrijpelijk en eigenlijk dezelfde als diegene die ik op de meeste plaatsen heb vastgesteld. Eigenlijk heeft "meedoen aan Record Store Day" ook niet langer echt betekenis, omdat de mensen die op die dag platen willen kopen, dat sowieso wel zullen doen, ongeacht als hun favoriete winkel "meedoet" of niet. Misschien heeft het zijn doel bereikt nu de platenverkoop terug piekt en is het gewoon een ding van de grote massa geworden waar iedereen zijn graantje van probeert mee te pikken. (Waarmee ik niet wil zeggen dat kleine zaken opgewassen zijn tegen grote afnemers die wel tegen een klap kunnen als ze hun stock van een bepaalde release niet verkocht krijgen.) Bedankt voor het kijken en voor de feedback!
Love the shops you visited, the atmosphere and layout. Completely agree that RSD lists contain a lot of unnecessary titles, like who needs a box set of Linda Ronstadt's records when you can (or could) find them all the time in the dollar bins? Well, maybe the newer record collector who wants a complete set? RSD is, as you say, what it is. While there's often many items I have no interest in, there's always something. And it's great for the local shops and the record industry in general. And it's a thing. A thing I enjoy doing. Cheers.
@calvinwazoo as always, thanks for watching and for leaving a comment!
tres cool est ce que mardi soir ou mercredi vous pourrez participer dans mon live ? qui se fera la semaine prochaine
Excellent venue footage and editing throughout the piece; and such quick execution given the recent timing of the event. Live musician sound capture was excellent given all the unexpected interference that can happen on site.
@ricefieldrecords It was quite a lot of work indeed, with all the different footage I had from stores and shows. But I absolutely wanted to post it as soon as possible. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you for sharing your record shopping journey, Frederic!! I like your selections. I interviewed G. Love about 10 years ago. Very cool guy!! Very tall!!! Really tall!!!😊 Loverman looks like an interesting artist. Thank you, again!!
@djvinylvertigo Thanks for watching, Scott!! Haven't really followed G.Love after his second or third album and never seen him live unfortunately. Does he still tour? Loverman is my new favorite Belgian artist... should make a video on my country's music scene. Quite a few very talented people here!
Hey man, we’re you tempted by the Two Lone Swordsmen ‘Still My World’? I decided not to buy it & now I’m listening to tracks on UA-cam, sounds great. Global Communication’s 76:14 is a big favourite of mine
@Harrispilton22 that Two Lone Swordsmen didn't make it to Belgium unfortunately, nor did that 94 East / Prince thing. '76:14' is brilliant, bought it on cd back in the day. Probably works best on that format too but couldn't resist buying the excellent 'Transmissions' vinyl box set a couple of years ago, which including the remix lp for the band Chapterhouse.
Cool video man, Oneohtrix and Thundercat look intense. I just saw Tim Hecker recently and I know how you feel about Daniel Lopatin. Too much info sometimes. Brussels is beautiful indeed, I was there a few years ago.
Thanks for watching, Fred!
Thanks for the videos! I heard that Autechre was amazing! Brussels is a very nice city, I really liked the weekend I spent there some years ago... I was wondering if you could speak French or if you come from the part of Belgium which doesn't speak French... 🙂
Sorry for my late reaction. No, I do not come from the French speaking part of Belgium, but I do speak it :-)
Onheatrix point never + Thundercat + autechre = 🤩🥳
Ouuuiii!
Thanks for sharing, Frederick
@frenchvinyladdict Yes, three great and very different shows. Thursday I’m seeing Cymande!
Hey, Thanks for watching and commenting on last night's French Vinyl Addict livestream. I really enjoyed doing it. It was tricky keeping up with the comments as I couldn't see them as they appeared. I hope you think we did a decent job, and I'm sorry if we missed one of your questions. All the best, David
@davidatkinson-lifematters4826 all good, Sir!
Vinyl Corner in Kortrijk! Nice shop!!!!!!!
