July 2012


  1. Creeps on Candy - Dr. O Alternative Tentacles?  Really?
  2. Augustus Pablo - Memories Of The Ghetto Dub My melodica has been gathering dust for a while, but I think it's time for a change.
  3. Jesu - Tiny Universes I am far too excited about the concept of Godflesh playing Pure in its entirety next year (at a festival that I won't be able to get to), so here's some Jesu to tide me over.  The last time I saw Jesu live, they had so much bass that their hard drive kept locking up.  Brilliant. 
  4. Jean-Claude Deblais - Voix De l'Etrange Great French Library music.  Click the link and you'll know as much as I do.
  5. Jefferson Airplane - The Last Wall Of The Castle I'm torn over Jefferson Airplane.  They never push all of the right buttons at once for me.  This song's not too bad.
  6. Miasma And The Carousel Of Headless Horses - The Pale Staircase This is a great album of Victorian music hall prog.  Never call it Steampunk. It's too good for that.
  7. Captain Beefheart - Sun Zoom Spark It seems that most people got into Beefheart via the Zappa connection.  I like him because he sounds like Island-era Tom Waits (or vice-versa, depending on your point of reference).
  8. Venetian Snares - Nutimik Canadian avant-techno spazz.  Considering this man's last name is Funk, you can't go wrong.
  9. King Tubby & Soul Syndicate - Ethiopian Version Not my favorite King Tubby album, but a great one nonetheless.
  10. L'Infonie - J'Ai Perdu 15 Cents Dans Le Nez Froid D'Un Ange Bronze See Jean-Claude Deblais on my feelings about this track.
  11. TwinSisterMoon - I Wish I Could Drown the World in Reverberation I love reverb and reverb-soaked drone.  Unfortunately TwinSisterMoon albums have a lot on non-reverb-soaked-drone tracks on them, which is perfectly nice, but doesn't always do it for me.
  12. Steve Hillage - Meditation Of The Snake It probably shows my age that I first heard about Steve Hillage through System 7 and his affiliation with the Orb.  Or possibly my good taste. Nah, just my age.
  13. Grails - Dead Vine Blues Grails are one of those bands that should be bigger than they are, especially with their drummer in the mighty Om.  Their new project sounds interesting.
  14. Henry Mancini - Touch Of Evil Only a touch?

June 2012

  1. Alain Presencer - Lullaby This is a great album primarily made up of Tibetan singing bowls (you can see the full list of instruments here).  There's an example of the technique here.  Via Continuo.
  2. Mr. Oizo - WC More fun from Mr Oizo.  This free EP is worth your time (as is his Mactastic website).  Completely worth the email address I had to surrender.
  3. Studio - Origin (Shake You Down By The River) I'm not sure if I admire or just get irritated with bands that have unGoogleable names.  It's probably the reason why I keep coming back to this track, enjoying it, and forgetting to buy the rest of the album.
  4. Ashra - Deep Distance Not as mighty as the amazing Ash Ra Tempel, Ashra is highly enjoyable, if only to spot the samples/influences that the Orb used for their first couple albums (Manuel Göttsching's E2-E4 being the big one).
  5. David Darling - Darkwood IV: Dawn David Darling (who has apparently won a Grammy, but don't let that put you off) is someone I've been meaning to check out for a while.  Apparently he soundtracked four films for Goddard, and didn't get pied. 
  6. Ścianka - Dni Wiatru Amazing and deep atmospheric post-rock.  Time to dig into their catalog.
  7. Kimmo Pohjonen - Keko Some enjoyable accordion insanity from Finland.  Check out the video.
  8. Keith Seatman - Highdown (Simon Heartfield Remix) An enjoyable free remix of a track from the excellent Consistently Mediocre and Daydreams (now on Bandcamp).
  9. Polmo Polpo - Rottura Deep loop music.  Don't know anything else about this band.  Go-go-Constellation Records!

May 2012


  1. d'Eon - #109 A great Popol Vuh/Cluster-esque kettle of swirling keyboard goo that will restore your faith in komische.   Pick it up, because it's both good and free.
  2. Sly And The Family Stone - Luv N' Haight Sly Stone's career has been an amazing trainwreck, which is a real pity.  Perhaps it's time for a Rick Rubin/Daman Albarn intervention?
  3. Fields Of The Nephilim - Submission Two (The Dub Posture) If you don't own Dawnrazor, The Nephilim, Elizium, Earth Inferno, and Revelations, then pick them up and we can talk afterwards.
  4. Earth - Sigil of Brass If you are unfamiliar with Earth, I personally recommend everything from Hex onward.  If you are familiar with Earth, then check out Dylan Carlson's Kickstarter project (I'm a backer). 
  5. Belbury Poly - Cantalus I meant to pick the album up when it came out, but somehow it slipped through the cracks.  I guess I'll have to fix that now. 
  6. Gerard Doulssane - Evening News I'm not sure where I got this particular album from, and the interent is feeling particularly unhelpful right now. 
  7. Tom Waits - Paris Mood (Un De Fromage) Tom Waits is the greatest living American songwriter.  The Island albums were the best ones and Marc Ribot was his best guitarist.  That is all.
  8. Igor Wakhevitch - Twilight And Call Of The Ascending Spirit I recently got turned on to Wakhevitch, even through he apparently had a renaissance in the late 90's.  It's modern composition that doesn't play into Minimalism or Serialism, but pulls from the rock vernacular without going all "Switched On," prog, or ELO.
  9. Trial Of The Bow - Inverloch This is here in celebration of half of the most underrated doom band ever naming their new project after this song.
  10. Gil Melle - Hex (Continued) This is from the Andromeda Strain soundtrack.  Check out more about the Creel Pone label that this was released on here. 
  11. Scorn - Night Tide You know that Scorn album that you haven't listened to in years and is gathering dust in a plie of CD's that won't fit in the rack?  Pull it out and listen to it again.
  12. Demdike Stare - Shade Phenomenally dark dub that is still burning up the internet.  Completely worth picking up.
