Casino Versus Japan - Blue Vacation (parts 1-5)

[@borrowedbody5409]

Two years ago I founds myself on a film shoot in Bikini Atoll (where the US tested many atomic bombs). I listened to this album continually throughout the whole project. We were filming in bunkers and the wrecks of sunken warships. It's the most magical and surreal place I've ever been and probably ever will go. Blue Vacation and all the other tracks on the album somehow capture it exactly. I'll listen to it for the rest of my life, and get transported to that paradise at the dawn of the nuclear age every time.

WELL WHERE CAN I SEE THIS FILM?

[@K_hessel]

seriously, I would love to see that shit with this as the soundtrack

[@borrowedbody5409]

@@crazycrazyjake ​ This is what it got turned into in the end. The tone of the VR/film doesn't really fit with my experience out there - I wasn't involved in the edit, or it would have been CVJ all the way! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqiYopqpmLupp6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYWkgpmdZbJqfpI

This album transports me to paradise, period.

[@lohollywood1f428]

Where's the film? I wanna see!

[@cosbypoop]

It's insane to me that this album came out in 1998. It's way ahead of other ambient albums that are 10+ years younger than this. Blue Vacation 2 in particular gives me feels beyond compare.

Same w a lot of old carbon based lifeforms albums

I have been hooked since 2009

[@sharkeyboy123]

I'm embarrassed to know about CVJ just about now. Absolutely magical.

[@donaharrington3848]

April, 2016, just discovering this artist! Thankyou youtube, I love you!!!

[@seankemp9706]

Dona Harrington I too found him rather late. Friendly suggestion to check out his bandcamp he released a new album this month.

[@dissolveaudio]

Wow. Donal Dineen used to play him years ago on his Small Hours/Here Comes The Night shows on Today FM in Ireland. Great to revisit this stuff!

[@joejennings2922]

I imagined myself floating in space feeling desperate to control where I drifted off to and ended up just letting go and seeing the planets and asteroids and stuff

Part 4 is insane

Now have ten hours on a dedicated playlist...

[@vonzo55]

In this album Erik shows the big influence he has with Wolfgang Voigt

[@bobbygnosis]

You don't need to repeat this. There is not any ceremony anymore. Everyone is gone. And you say this out loud to yourself. You were alone at the time. And the time now is always.

word

[@seankemp9706]

What's this from? I recognize those words. Especially, the last two sentences.

[@bobbygnosis]

Sean Kemp 12:23

[@seankemp9706]

Of course, but do you know where that is sampled from by chance?

[@bobbygnosis]

Sean Kemp No idea. Like you, the tone, tempo and tamber seem familiar. Why this is the case is a mystery to myself as well.

[@LuckyCharm1936]

Love thissss

[@clydefrog217]

what's the guitar from 8:58 onwards from?

[@casinoversusjapan9041]

My friend Scott Beschta (Magic Arrows) was in Europe late-Spring/ early-Summer '98 and recorded a busker at an airport or street cafe (I cannot recall the precise location) on a micro-cassette player. Thank you for listening! First-time vinyl edition coming soon!

[@niallh6419]

@@casinoversusjapan9041 Did this vinyl happen? I literally don't own a record player.... or any vinyl...but I'd commit to the whole medium for this record!!!

[@hcaz5818]

@@niallh6419 yea it happened and it's gone now

[@andreacaloiaro6038]

That part, and its production, is like a good fever dream of a European foray.

[@eauneau4344]

I like a lot of CVJ, this seems like escaped bedroom doodlings.

[@niallh6419]

We must be listening to different tracks.
