I like that both you and @kuorinki posted the same album one after the other :smiley:

I’m really into that struck bowl feel on ‘House’

But enjoying the whole thing!

I see Ulla Straus has released on West Mineral Ltd, which is a pretty sweet label imo.

newly obsessed with this album, produced by Jenn Wasner (Wye Oak, Flock of Dimes) whose work I’ve admired for nearly a decade, and I feel like you can definitely recognize her in it. I hadn’t listened to Madeline Kenney before, but this album combines some cool, odd vocal harmonies (a few sections reminding me of earlier Dirty Projectors in a very good way) with really interesting, sometimes choppy-but-organic, often fairly sparse instrumentation. having trouble finding a good way to describe the overall vibe, but whatever it is, I’m super down with it :heart:

So happy to see Acreil mentioned here! I love his stuff and he is a real font to knowledge where patching in Pd is concerned. He also has another side to his body of work where he uses unpopular hardware synths to make more traditional compositions.

The Skip James video got me in strange mood this evening. The American Folk Blues Festival brought some great new vibes to just-recently-post-nazi-germany in the 60’s. I sadly missed it but I like the close-up and density of this one.

it brought me to Helen Humes then.


…wich then brought me back home somehow:

Here’s another one I like to put on while I cook:

It’s by one of the guys from Matmos, if you know who those guys are.

Bibio has a new album out. It’s excellent, feels like a perfect blend of everything he’s done so far. https://youtu.be/GWjVgtS5s8I

the perfect thing to find at my local on world record store day - I imagine there’s not a lot of these around.

sounds wonderful too - woozy and textural. the folks at Round & Round Records describe it as "a long form exercise in meditative arrangement and rhythmic deconstruction.

thanks @Galapagoose !

This may be way outside the purview of some of you (and highly criticized by others) but I spent yesterday celebrating the 35th anniversary of the release of my number 1 desert island disc…

Always one of my faves as was Body Electric and Kid Lenses.

I’ve cut way down on metal/hardcore/punk/etc in recent years but Neurot just put out this Brazilian hardcore/industrial/electronics record by DEAFKIDS and it is wrecking me. I hope it gets attention from outside of the usual loud-music Internet echo chambers:

Also I Google translated an article about the main dude from a website in Portuguese and learned the following: The guy is a vegetarian, does not drink, makes a noise, has a fuck band and so on.
