- "The trio of Californian experimental vocalist Anna Homler and British free improvisers Steve Beresford and Richard Sanderson first met at the Copenhagen Festival of Experimental Music in 1999 in a concert of Toys n Noise put together by the toy player Martin Klapper. They have continued to play together whenever possible and have played at the London Musicians Collective International Festival of Experimental Music at Londons South Bank and at a concert in Liverpool broadcast on BBC Radio 3s Mixing It programme."
- Service's return orbit finds them in an acid folk state of mind. They softly churn out cosmic tones that bore directly into the right brain, eliciting a bright reign of psychedelic sprites. Their mystical leanings steer them close to the likes of Sol Invictus, but OS zigs where neo folk zags, giving them a sonic momentum that leads to a much outer part of outer space. This beautifully crafted set smells like moist earth covered in leaves. Orbit Service's mining of ever deeper moods has yielded a subtle treasure that glows like distant sun. The album includes contributions from:
Kim G. Hansen (Antenne)
Anna Brønsted (Our Broken Garden / Efterklang)
Elin Palmer (crooked fingers/munly and the lee lewis harlots)
Edward Ka-Spel (The Legendary Pink Dots)
Kirill Nikolai (Still Light)
Dennis Swanson (day dissolved dream)
Esther Hernandez (pee pee)
produced by kim g. hansen and randall frazier on two continents via the internet. mixed by kim g. hansen. mastered by randall frazier. engineered by kim g. hansen and randall frazier. additional engineering by brian gerhart.

Antenne's famous 2016 release:
- Available for just $1,000 USD or more, so that will be:5,431.83 DKK or more
Antenne is Kim G. Hansen from my previous post and Marie-Louise Munck, and is known from the good old Amie Street days.

is a 48.3 km long river in the Charente-Maritime département, in southwestern France. Its source is in the commune of Fontaine-Chalendray.
Went to the record store yesterday to pick up the Purple Snow compilation I mentioned a few pages back, but they were sold out! So I grabbed this instead.
Tigers Milk Records presents PERU MARAVILLOSO, the result of many years obsessively collecting Peruvian music: its in our blood. With a focus on 60s and 70s Latin and tropical music, this debut album features a selection of vintage cuts and unknown treasures from one of Perus most exciting musical eras. The vast majority of these songs were only ever pressed once on vinyl and have remained unreleased since.
Thanks, BT. I downloaded one of Cousin Silas's Dronescapes (I think No. 007) after some of your postings earlier in the year and really enjoyed it; I see there are more.
As a member at First Avenue I have access to a board where members discuss upcoming shows, buy and sell tickets, and generally share info. This band is coming to town and some of the young 20s members were discussing how great the show will be. I'd never heard of them, so I'm listening now on Spotify. I'm apparently too old for EDM, because this sucks.
One of the guys at work was playing this, has an amazing version of Why, the old Carly Simon song, its on Bandcamp and E Music. very strange English Folk music
Going through GP's best of list. Not too easy on Spotify. Really digging the Tamikrest and will definitely download the full Den Sorte Skole when I get home.
Ugh, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. I'll say this for them, they write great hooks and put on a hell of a performance. I actually saw them and Kendrick on the same bill, and Macklemore killed Kendrick as far as the performance went. That said, I only own music from one of them. good kid m.A.A.d city is utterly brilliant. The Heist is hip hop for tweens that has no business being mentioned in the same breath as gkmc. Which is exactly why it will win the Grammy. Tweens buy albums.
One thing the article skips, though, is the backlash regarding Macklemore and race. His biggest hit is "Thrift Shop" that humorously looks at "poppin' tags" and many have taken as making fun of the poor, who of course are disproportionately black. Add to that the already present issue of Macklemore's whiteness (the comparison to Elvis in the article hints at this underlying issue), and you can see why there would be an undercurrent of dissatisfaction with him.
To be clear, I love the anti-homophobia themes of M & RL in "Same Love", and if that helps one tween struggling with sexuality, they can win as many Grammys as they want and I won't hold it against them. I'd still rather listen to Kendrick's "Dying of Thirst" every day of the week and twice on Sunday, though.
Currently listening to:

If it's any comfort, I was, thanks to this board, aware of the Lamar album (and while it's not exactly my thing I do hear quality), but had never heard of Macklemore (probably due to my tween-deficiency).
More waag/Cousin Silas. Pure drift.
- " Winner of the « In memoriam » award of the « Académie Charles Cros » 2005, "Archives sauvées des Eaux" represents the encounter between a pioneer of concrete music, who died of late, and a live sounds manipulator. In the last six years, Luc Ferrari worked on a series of compositions to explore, in every direction, the totality of the concepts he experimented since the beginning of his work in the middle 50s and this CD is a great evidence of those. The idea raised as some water damaged a collection of magnetic tapes, where works from the 70s were recorded. The author decided to compose using what has been saved and proposed to eRikm to participate to a re-building project in Milan. The guest artist, live sampling Ferraris material and playing his own sounds, changed the original creations giving life to a new touching opera. The album, produced by Carla Chiti and Nicola Guiducci, is the live recording of the performance without any post-production "
What is Contemporary Gamelan? Wikipedia says: "A gamelan is a traditional musical ensemble from Indonesia, typically from the islands of Java and Bali, featuring a variety of instruments such as metallophones, xylophones, kendang (drums) and gongs; bamboo flutes, bowed and plucked strings. Vocalists may also be included. For most Indonesians, gamelan music is an integral part of Indonesian culture."
After the Best Of 2013 lists I bought a couple of CDs I'd wanted but missed because they were not available at emusic - amazingly cheaper on a 2 for deal than downloading!

Really enjoying this. May need to be my Christmas music purchase this year.

Enjoyed this, thanks again luddite.
Enjoying this also - thanks BT.

Cousin Silas - Dronescape 011. There's something like 15 hours of these posted. Bliss.

Much, much better. I could only make it through 5 tracks of the Krewella, and now this will nicely cleanse the palate.
