I'm listening to an utterly amazing mash-up cover version by Thirty Seconds to Mars, in tribute to amongst others Prince, David Bowie and George Michael. See Cover Versions thread for the link.

Well, I'm still not sure if Tom Petty is gone. He has been a big part of my music library with 6 vinyls, 5 CDs and the "Playback" box set (of which only disc 2 & 6 survived the lending to one of my sons, Darned kids) in my collection. I'll think some good thoughts for him while I'm listening to Hoping for good news.
Apart" is a mini-album containing a set of cello improvisations,
concieved during days of solemn recording in the basement of an unused
industrial space outside of Bern, Switzerland in 2015.
Well, it's been confirmed Tom Petty gone, sixty six Sadly back to Js
ETA This really has been an awful couple of days! Massacre in Las Vegas, Terrorist attack in my hometown, Edmonton and How terrible for Tom Petty's family to have him declared dead while he's still hanging on. Sad, sad, sad...

Inspired by Herbie Hancock's '70's space-music and long-form repetitive works like Miles Davis’ On The Corner, Hard Vibe has a trans-minimalist compositional impetus with an atypical array of structural obstructions. Specifically, Hard Vibe force-fuses a hard-boiled chordal pattern from rhythm changes into an all-inclusive oasis of contextual amelioration. This is pragmatically achieved by transforming a major-key cadence into a sadistic pre-determined grid of unremitting minor modulations…a task adroitly executed on B3 by Stabinsky.
Wait, wha..? This much I will say, it just doesn't quit

Really nice vaporwave-ish synth music from Japan, nyop on bandcamp.
the lsd album is joking right? The only record of lsd influenced musicians available?

Hoping for good news.
Flirting With Time
A coyote ran across the road
On the move without a home
A flash of light reminded me of you
This could well be your last stand
Hold the sunlight in your hand
Spread your fingers
Feel the sand fall through
I've done all I can do, now it's up to you...
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, and maybe
Time, baby, is catching up with you
Shadow men talk a real good game
Every punch line has your name
You cried out and no one came to you
I've done all I can do, now it's up to you...
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, and maybe
Time, baby, is catching up with you
Should be more to learn from this
Can't say I know what it is
No difference 'tween a hit or miss, it's true
I've done all I can do, now it's up to you...
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, and maybe
Time, baby, is catching up with you
& still hoping you'll make it before you join up with Roy & George

(without me in the audience)
Still going strong and Mick Jagger's voice is as clear and sharp as it was 30 years ago.
This suits my mood after yesterday's sorrow
