What are you listening to now, I mean right now in this moment?

Watching footage of the eruption in Iceland got me thinking about a hypnotic short film of lava set to some Tangerine Dream music I’d taped off the TV in the mid-80s and used to watch all the time.
After much searching it seems to be the impossible to find “Qaf - The Sacred Mountain” [1985, Jamil Dehlavi] so I have no idea what TD tracks were on it and have ended up with this ambient classic on instead.

That’s the jam. It’s was on the Get Naked compilation. I love how they embraced the UK broken beat and deep house artists too.

Naked Music just reminds me of every “cool” bar in Sydney playing this sound at the time - so polite and whitewashed. The era of clubbers who only ever purchased CD compilations and were more concerned about being seen than the actual music. Ugh.

Glasgow’s Seated Records issue the first album, proper, by sorely overlooked, early ‘80s unit 22 Beaches - eight jewels of familiar yet distant indie jangle seductively offset with balmy Balearic grooves Stitching a trio of rare compilation cuts with five gems previously unreleased in any form.

Early Cobby. Forgot how good this is - Steve put up on his Reels earlier. Remember first coming across Ashley & Jackson on Warehouse Raves 3 with the track The Sermon, which led me to investiogate further and discoivered this buried on the B-side of that release - still stands up today.

Not much of the Naked/Om stuff has aged particularly well, imho
