Right now I’m listening to the lush beats of Christian Voldstad… He’s not one of the Tulumati
:grinning: they couldn’t wipe his boots if you ask me… He plays some keys during his sets always sound great
DHB Podcast #117 - Christian Voldstad by Deep House Bucharest on #SoundCloud

Steve Lacy IMO is as underrated as they come. His late career stuff with Mal Waldron is the definition of ā€œmastery of form.ā€

Mood: grateful for the weekend.

The brilliant Flow Sessions just went up a notch

Sunday morning special - Morgan Fisher’s 1985 synth rethoughts on Satie.

Morgan Fisher has had a storied career as part of ’60s one-hit wonders Love Affair, thru to playing keys for Mott The Hoople in the ā€˜70s, and working on ambient, improv and soundtracks in the ā€˜80s alongside Yoko Ono, Haruomi Hosono and Dip In The Pool.

Inside Satie was recorded in Japan following Fisher’s move from the UK in the mid ’80s. Perhaps a perfect fit for the sophisticates of Tokyo at the time, the album adapts Satie’s timeless minimalism to a mix of electronic and acoustic instruments, highlighting and feeding into the similarities between Gnossiene and Gymnopedie and the new age ambient zeitgeist of Japan in 1985.

As a meditation aid, a coffee table staple, and a historic artefact, Inside Satie is a beautiful and warmly satisfying document totally worthy of reappraisal in 2018.

There’s a tune on that comp by CXX called Comfort of Strangers that is ridiculously good. Unfortunately it wasn’t part of the vinyl release and the 12 is about Ā£150 on Discogs :weary:

Staying with the party vibe and another brilliant video…

she has quietly became one of my favourite artists of the past ten years.

Saw them play at the sugar club in Dublin long time ago with a very young lykke li as support act…

I am listening to hold music while attempting to secure a vaccination appointment for an elderly friend. It sounds like someone playing air supply with terrible stock sounds through a Vaseline smeared speaker. A behavioral scientist told me that hold music is often purposefully terrible in order to cut down on queue times by causing customer attrition. Right now I fully believe him to be correct :skull:
