I enjoyed Fonseca on the live album with Fatoumata Diawara, so am scouting out the rest of his discography. Tiene Que Ver (above) surprised me; it started out sounding like it was going to be more of what I had liked the sound of, but then came a track or two where the percussion grated and by the end it sounded a bit....robotic? Which is not what I'd expect from Cuban or African or jazz.
Imagine the sound of a 100 gas-powered remote controlled airplanes slowly joined by 100 gas-powered leaf blowers loud enough to make you wonder whether fractured tinnitus is setting in or whether 100 table saws have joined in. It's an all-out autopsychic stungun assult after that. Lovely.
A happy surprise: when you keep an album on your bandcamp SFL for a while because you really want a couple of tracks from it that are album-only but eventually decide that the whole album is kind of too expensive to buy for the sake of those tracks and delete it and then a while later the label offers that very album as a free promo download because you bought something else from them and you find it in time because you decide to clear out your spam folder....
(Includes tracks by Darren Harper, Porya Hatami and Wil Bolton, all faves of mine).
It also led me Loud Objects which I learned is one of Tristan Perich's projects. Music is so much fun! I'm always happy to hear something new/old for the first time.
Kunal Gupta & Tristan Perich (USA)Our music sets are built in front of you on overhead projector from scratch with electonics and soldering irons. The beginnings of our sets are usually in silence as the preliminary circuit is constructed from scratch, live.From the Piksel07 festival in Bergen, Norway.
I didn't get to see the projector, so i just closed my eyes. ps the last 10 mins or so is a recap/intro into the next act.
Wow! It's kinda surreal seeing all of this sudden attention here to Tristan and his partner's work. He's a real nice guy. We met first in Austria back in 2009 and he just gave me, free, his 1-bit Music CD (the one you plug into?) after we'd met and spent some days together ... and, last year, he sent me a signed copy of his massive conceptual-based book ("...First 100th second...") out of the blue. I've even shared some video of his work on my website, so, YES, continue enjoying and supporting him - ha!
Wow! I hit the jackpot. I thought I only had about 4 or 5 dollars left on my Emusic balance, but it appears according to my payment history they've given me a courtesy credit for 5 & 19 dollars to match the booster packs I bought a few days earlier(5&15). I immediately bought the $50 booster which they've also matched. Wow, still not a monthly subscriber and I can get 2 for 1. (in Canada) expires July 22nd & 24th
I started right here still $128.40 left to go. Music is so much fun!! Thanks to you all for leading me here. Ps i've only heard a 4 min excerpt on the Marathon '15 mixtape from last June. This is so worth the wait. From my Save for Later.

Roberto Fonseca - Tiene Que Ver
thanks @rostasi for the rec...occasionally strikes me as Bitches Brew outtakes.
Trying this one:
Hmm. Not quite grabbing me either.
@Brighternow Both of those Paul Boisselet recordings are quite nice.
This is more robot style:
CD 2 of this magnificent boxset.
People Get Ready - ST
with an underdash of sax on the first track.
Beatrice Dillon - Face A/B
Thomas Köner - Tiento de la Luz
This is very nice indeed. And I would say the most accessible Köner album to date.
