@Brighternow Ha! How did you even find that WJF soundcloud playlist? I just put that thing together, haven't even decided yet what I'm going to do with it.
Also, I just discovered the music of Federico Albanese. Seems to be piano with some occasional strings and electronics. I used my last four emu "downloads" on the first four tracks of his 2012 release. Really pretty, hope the rest holds up.
Tried to follow-up Doofy's Marquis Hill album from a few days ago. Emusic have just two single tracks available, issued six months ago, but not the whole album. Strange!
@greg At least here in the US, 'The Way We Play' isn't on eMusic - It's on the Concord label. I saw Marquis Saturday night, playing the music from the album! Personnel were different, but drummer Makaya McCraven was there. @jonahpwll, this was at the sweet little concert hall up at at Ravinia.
Meanwhile, full steam ahead on the Christmas Classical playlist. It snowed yesterday, even.

You are among the 663 "persons" I follow. - So any activity from you will show up in my profile And there,s 80 following me, including "celebrities" such as Cantaloupe Music, Joshua Maxey, Jens Mikkel Madsen (I Think your'e awesome), Marco Oppedisano and Vincent Bergeron.
Soundcloud is very useful to keep in touch with what's going on . . .
Traditional Music of Notional Species Vol II Release Date: 02 December 2016
Oh, yeah. Those were relatively popular LPs back in those days. It was his first foray at a major label after his India Navigation and Adelphi days when he was known as "Black Arthur Blythe" and brought him a considerable amount of notoriety.
Exact repress of this impossibly rare mythical improvised recording by
pianist Francois Tusques (of Viol Du Vampire fame) and trumpeter Don
Cherry (of Holy Mountain fame). Early intimate 1964 recording privately
released as part of an exhibition designed by pioneering Swiss-French
architect Le Corbusier, sonically evoking the work of Komeda, Mal
Waldron and Bernt Rosengren. Housed in two fold wraparound sleeve.
Graeme Miller & Steve Shill - The Moomins Release date: 3 February 2017
- "Imagine, if you will, a foreboding homemade electro-acoustic, new
age, synth driven, proto-techno, imaginary world music Portastudio
soundtrack for a Polish-made animated fantasy based on a Finnish modern
folk tale and created for German and Austrian TV, composed in 1982 by
two politically driven post-punk theatre performers from a shared house
in Leeds!
To even the most perspicacious and adventurous of
alternative music fans the genuine bloodline of this previously
unreleased record already begins to sound like an entire record
collection in one sitting. It would be surprising if this project's
ambitious and exotic credentials didn't tick at least one box on your
musical matrix and without one drop of unnecessary nostalgic hyperbole
this project already sounds like the perfect fantasy record that you've
never heard. Alternatively we could just say The Moomins and, for many,
things would instantly begin to make perfect sense.
From the same
social landscape as Gang Of Four, The Mekons and Impact Theatre
Co-operative - armed with a Wasp synthesiser, an ocarina and a cassette
of the Robinson Crusoe music taped off the TV, Graeme Miller and Steve
Shill used minimum means for maximum mayhem, instilling over 35 years of
dreamlike illusory fuzziness and freakiness into the memories of a
generation of school age TV addicts waiting for the next 5 minute fix of
outernational fuzzy felt folklore. Collected here, all in one place for
the first time, Finders Keepers in close collaboration with the
original composers finally bring the original homemade micro-melodies
and reintroduce them to a musical landscape where fans of vintage
electronics, concrète tape effects, pocket percussion and domestic
synths are finally ready to be reunited with the magnetic music of
Moominvalley."
