Library you enjoy from the 90s to present?
« on: February 11, 2018, 04:16:02 AM »
Library music from 1990 onward is even less popular than that of the 80s, and while what I've hear isnt as interesting, charming, adventurous, exciting, etc. in general, there's a few exceptions. Some of the albums Music House did in the early 90s for example had quite a few songs I enjoyed. There's a small handful of tracks I like from the 2000s along with one or two albums David Vorhaus made in the early 90s I somewhat enjoyed.
So while I take the lower interest and popularity into account, I'm wondering if you at LTM have any favorites, just out of curiosity.

He, I have no favorites in the 90's. Mine are almost all from the 70's and early 80's.
But I must admit I probably don't know that much about 90's library releases..

Yeah, me neither. It's mostly stuff from the first few years of the 90s that I know about myself. Part of me does have some interest in trying some more from the period sometime.

I have a lot of great LPs from 88, some from 89, but only a few from 90. From these ones I really dig these two:

[Prilly Music] ‎- PM LP 151I - Franco Zauli ‎- Together
mega.nz/#!JmQx0ZRa!wlGLD7i3bIlbLZF3VnGmF27oBUNFZ8Ba9cnJdrTQ2I0

[Green Wall] ‎- GW 80804- Punnys ‎- Telephone Line

I have recently downloaded a lot of cd rips from different labels (LMT 6 megathreads), but haven't had time to really listen to them yet. Some of these I'm very curious about.

I agree, roope - 87-90 could have some very good tracks, even some good full LPs. I've heard a lot of great library tracks from 87 in particular, somehow.
Love your avatar, too - it was for that painting that I listened to those Coloursound Fantasyland albums.

Thanks! Fantasylands are fantastic!
There a lot of great albums in the latter half of 80's! Of course often with a couple of weaker tracks, but still pretty great overall.

Agreed, roope, glad to see someone who agrees with me on that :) You might be interested in the 80s comp I made, linked in my signature.

To move things along, though, here's some of those post-90s tracks I mentioned enjoying, from the EMI production music site:
- 'The Water Garden' by Bob Foster, Music House 'Shades Of Green' 1990 https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/MHA/13
- 'Orbital' and 'No Gravity' from Selected Sound 'Electric Lounge Club', 2001 https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/SEL/5309
- 'Digital Domain', 'On Line', 'Where is Everybody', 'Sultry Summer', & 'Data Flow' from this 1998 Music House album https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/MHI/29
- Multiple tracks from Music House 'Sonic Solutions', 1994 https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/MHI/21
- 'Clean Machine', 'Element of Tension' and 'Perservation' from Music House 'Rainbow Warrior, 1990 https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/MHI/14
- 'Nature Study', 'Open Sea', 'Birds High Above', & 'Birth of a Flower' from Coloursound 'Nature Study', 1990 https://www.emipm.com/en/browse/labels/CSCD/15

When it comes to new jack swing, I recall some new jack-ish tracks on this Sonoton album 'Rap Street' (complete with cheesy 90s rap vocals): https://www.sonofind.com/track/SCD0209

roope - nice to know you listened/enjoyed! The feedback means a lot to me.

Onward, this Frederic Milgram track from 1990, love the synth bells:

I recall liking some of the other tracks on the album, Dynamo. It's available here:
https://www.universalproductionmusic.com/en-row/search?qtext=dynamo&mode=workgrouping&vtag=1&vwave=1&vdesc=1&ktype=7&fq=albumId:(338)

And also this fabulous synth pop tune by Frederick Rousseau from 1992

not sure if these are exactly what you've been looking for, but they might be worth checking out:

discogs.com/Saqib-Hassan-Daniel-K%C3%A4fer-Denny-Savage-Kostas-Kefaloukos-Tue-Track-Hip-Hop-Swing-Rap-/release/10555473

discogs.com/Various-Street-Beats/release/2690188

Wow - MXS007 is a library album with explicit lyrics warning!  ::)

Haha, that's a first. Knowing library, though, that might just be an explicit warning that the CD contains lyrics! ;)

Ha! True! I definitely prefer my library without lyrics (El grillo LP on Picci may be my exception).
