I was looking for a better scan of the cover but there doesn't appear to be one around. Two near half hour meditations both of which are inducing a state of melancholy not entirely appropriate for a Friday morning. The title track employs flute, voice and shakers quite a thing, The Beauty of Sorrow is wistful to put it mildly, I've no idea how Just Intonation adds to the mix but solo accordion with delay is wistful enough for me. At least the temperature is due to get above freezing today!
Single-release of the song The Same Way As You Walk by I Think You're Awesome. Jens Mikkel: bass, vocals, composition Alex Jønsson: guitar Morten Kærup: guitar, banjo Lars Fiil: Keys Frej Lesner: percussion Andreas Skamby: drums Christian Vuust: sax Maria Malmø: backing vocals
Andreas Scholl - Nisi Dominus (and not, as Apple autocorrect would have it, Nice Dominos). The fourth movement, cum dederit, sung by Scholl, has to be one of the most utterly beautiful things in existence.
Another of my unfortunately bought too late Oliveros records. Emu lists this as The Roots of the Movement by the way. Apart from some electronic processing of some kind this is basically your hard core drone from solo just-intonation accordion. That bridge and the river for that matter seem to go on into infinity; the reality is six tracks in just over an hour.
Earlier Sax and vocals with the accordion and field recordings . The vocals sometimes take on a throat singing feel; sometimes it sounds almost like a Cantor. Lot's of lovely small sounds and interplay. I've heard this sort of music from some London improvisers offering their own version of Deep Listening.
A longtime music buddy of mine has been using the Mickey Mouse "Good Gosh Opium" panel as his avatar for years. Gave me a bit of a shock seeing it here.

Aqua Dorsa - Cloudlands
Interesting drone stuff.
So has this artist/label figured out emusic? This album is exactly twice the price at emusic as at bandcamp.
