i bet i'm the only person in the world who is listening to oxide and neutrino right now.
which is probably the antithesis of the current love of slo-mo bass heavy sounds.
the uptempo jerky stop-start rhythms, and high-end focus sounds are v. different to the production love of 2012.

The 6ths - Wasps' Nests. I am increasingly starting to suspect that this is Stephin Merritt's best album. New Crystal Castles album. The last track is really mesmerizing. I don't like it as much as their previous album but I think I rate that album more highly than anyone else. Scott Walker - Tilt. I am having a difficult time getting into Scott Walker's latter day albums, but I am making a sincere effort, starting here.

that's awesome, milton. is there a way to download his recordings, or do you have to stream them?
― dexpresso (Z S), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:41 (eleven years ago) link
streaming is disabled, but he's got a lot of CDs out. my all time favorite is this one (who needs electronic music): http://www.amazon.com/Frog-Concertos-Volume-Lang-Elliott/dp/B002MAPGUK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1355273157&sr=8-1&keywords=lang+elliott+frog+concertos

very nice. amazing how the frogs calm you down. in the botanical garden in berlin-dahlem they have this small pond. in summer i just passed by, heard some noises and then had a closer look. there were dozens of frogs everywhere, the more time i took the more frogs i saw. some were copulating, most of them not moving at all. nature is so unbelievably rich.

who needs electronic music
once in florida i laid in bed hearing what i thought were random quasi-musical bleeps and blurts from somebody's electronic device outside, then realized it was frog ambiance from the local pond

Miles Davis live in '73 around the time of the In Concert lp I think. Doesn't have the typewriter rhythms of the studio versions of the tracks they're playing (On The Corner) & I think this might be looser still than the iN Concert recordings
