Back on that 70s proto-metal kick. This had to be one of the heaviest songs in the world in 1970, an all time favorite.

"stressed" is just "desserts" spelled backwards

Colombian Juan García-Herreros playing Havona (Weather Report). I can't remember where I got this vid from as I can't find it anywhere else on the web now. Sound quality is not great and I can only hear the bass with earphones on.

Anyway I thought of this great cover due to:
- WR Heavy Weather is in GD's current rock album survivor list. Tbh it's probably my favourite album on that list
- ISB's thread about what album opened up a world of new music. Well for me it's probably Heavy Weather, along with some of J-L Ponty's albums
- Bass and big band. Yes siree!

Juan García-Herreros (Snow Owl) - "Havona" (cover)

Never heard of em. Like the song though! But why is Juicy J on drums?

Moloko were great. They nailed sounding retro inspired while also being pretty culturally 90s, if that makes any sense. Such an amazing voice too.

This is probably their most famous song, a neo-disco classic.

I just spun Mousse T's Feel Love Mix of "Sing It Back" during a house music set last night! :)

(I'm like this all the time.)

Hey, this is some great stuff! It's electronic music but it sounds really earthy and gritty. I dig.

90's trip-hop from Japan. A really nice atmosphere.

glad you like it! he has made more great stuff too, like:




Just a Band—"Huff + Puff"
I haven't listened to this song in several years, but I just stumbled cross it in one of my playlists. I had forgotten how much I love it.

Throw your dog the invisible bone.

Loop-finding-jazz is an indispensable staple of the microhouse genre. I first discovered it while exploring lowercase/microsound music like the classic Vrioon collaboration by Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto and This Bliss by Pantha du Prince which I was able to track down on vinyl from Germany. Great stuff!

Here's Vrioon:

I was reminded of this one the other day. I like it!



Happiness is a warm manatee

Taking in the 2001 Columbia-issued The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions 3CD / 5LP box set.

As a passionate ambient music connoisseur, In a Silent Way is by far my favorite Miles Davis record, so I leapt at the chance to hear the working material from those sessions.

My understanding is that there was really nothing else like it, neither before nor since, so it's a treasure to enjoy three CDs worth of Davis' exploration of his pioneering new territory.

The music is described as atmospheric, mellow, nocturnal, mysterious, soothing, calm, meditative, hypnotic, and peaceful. I'd love to hear more but I'm not sure anything else comes close.

I remember when that album came out. It was their first album in something like seven years and I know a lot of people were disappointed by it. I've always thought there were some absolute bangers on it though, and frankly Fat of the Land is a tough album to follow up.
