Missed this last year. Description: music? Album title doesn't do it any favors, imo.

XP: mainly whirring & some messaienesque tinkling. better than the ersatz fushitsusha they were for the next few outings.
today my 2& a hlf year old boy chose bruce gilbert (didn't like it), steel mammoth (dancing), laurel halo (got the dirty washing out of the laundry basket & chilled)
subsequently, papa goes German homework spinning https://img.discogs.com/syFk8VSFI8WKMNnInRYpAAMPgNc=/fit-in/488x472/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-4881483-1378329731-5528.jpeg.jpg

what's with that spacing? awesome typos, blocked sinuses, thunderstorm weather & general grumpiness suggest a brewing migraine.
batten the hatches.

x-post, re: Tima Formosa. I recall that one being more engaging than the subsequent, more rockish, or "ersatz fushitsusha" forms of the later releases.. a lot of material, though. Can't speak on the quality of the more recent stuff.

re: Rolando Simmons, nice use of portamento

i normally hate this kind of mewling indie afropop beach boys with electronics, but this (and zac davis' more sing-songy & less fax-y ambient bits) have some ineffable wayward charm that the more salient practitioners lack

zac nelson, not zac davis.

Maybe my favorite song so far this year. Don't know much about these guys, scuzz rockers from Mobile.

His Name Is Alive----Patterns of Light: the doors ov the Temple are left open---"calling all believers"----sisters of the Flower bathe in "the cool light of Creation", as acolytes of Crazy Horse, Deep Purple and Father Yod boogie all around; synthesizers ride the circuit---"I want your daemon inside me",or is it "diamond"? So refined and sure, even when anticipating the "donkey at dawn"---sole acoustic-based regrouping of "Dragon Down", recalling You as "a dream within the dream....getting dark outside....gonna heal my heartlights tonight", so not so far from that recharged "Silver Arc Curving...", from "the world has lost the Key-" to "The World is now the Key", o Baby---(where's my crucifix? Why worry though)

I know her brother's work a bit better than hers and that's only a little bit of it really.
But thought this was more contemporary to the stuff by him I really like.

some interesting early 70s stuff being torrented recently.

Mostly just Blue Note semi-regular post-bop from the 60's

was spinning dillo's "boggs 2" until i remembered that the angry dudes from downstairs are acting out some kinda psychic melodrama by complaining to us about the HORRIFIC NOISE we make at all hours (we say no goose boos, sleep early, they do freudian projection because crazy, we now perpetual terrified - they huge)

Gaumen: "Patcher, Panels, Brass": farmer manual /cluster / plunderphonia with trombone type of thing?https://img.discogs.com/VCfOW-dHR0g6omAtn-uIz2RCmAA=/fit-in/600x600/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-416473-1185625252.jpeg.jpg

"whomohw" sounds like farmers manual without trumpets (which is pretty wacky for a caroliner spinoff, in that it's erm.... not... wacky)

although i keep forgetting how much 4:floor gubbins the manual put out (however abstract). white limo not really doing that. rattle rustle bleep & rumble compellingly, though.

Pete Brown & Piblokto Hamburg Germany 1971
pretty ok sounding live set from the Cream lyricist's 2nd solo band. Got nice long songs.
Also has the audio from their POP2 performance as bonus.
