Xpost first two songs are okay. Overall: nothing spectacular. :-(

first (2014) and second (2017) album releases by Clap! Clap!

from allmusic:

"Coming from a background in jazz, where he sometimes worked under the alias Digi G'Alessio,
Italian musician Cristiano Crisci made a transition into electronic music with the Clap! Clap! project
around the beginning of the 2010s. Crisci's work as Clap! Clap! wove the influence of Chicago's footwork scene
into a tapestry of West African percussion samples as well as frequent use of Crisci's own field recordings."

"Sophomore album...finds the producer folding live instrumentation into the earthy samples"

the 1st Michel Polnareff, which is charming French folk-pop and I need to buy a copy of it as soon as I have money

disc 1, has some of the better known tracks on that I know from having had the 2 lps years ago.
Blooming love Playing Golf.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/bb1ca057a650d2a284e712c698269291/1600059
I noticed this is The return Of , think I picked it up cheap in either Rough Trade or FOPP over Xmas.
Not sure exactly what the difference between the 2 versions is.
& I think I might finally get around to picking up copies of the lps from a couple of years later.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/299c87fd6aee76d91cf0809430973633/5369754
THis is the edition of the cd I have and I bought it a while after first hearing about it. Can't remember details unfortunately, but I got it in the early 90s. & i think I may have heard about it from Forcedexposure.
I love the mournful feel to the tunes and the references to earlier music forms. Seems to be steeped in gopspel/old timey influence but played with an electric feel.

Last night I also listened to the Oneohtrix Point Never comp Fall Into Time, which is possibly becoming my favorite of his... wonderful warm juno vistas...
impressions of highways through forests at night, pure nowness

brimstead, Wednesday, 20 March 2019 21:05 (five years ago) link

I love Fall Into Time. They reissued the releases that make up the Rifts comp a couple years ago, and they’re all so good. Having them each as a separate slab of vinyl makes them much more approachable and memorable than listening to the en masse on Rifts

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/2d7c9f10696526c78ec5be6e27bd7491/1842899
the first of teh Preserved editions i've bought. Think I need to buy some more Eskimo definitely.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/e7f1ecb78cd581fb49eb46bfad75dcb8/3122646
& i think particularly Minor Swing. Do love these Proper sets. Nice cheap way of getting decent sounding collections of good stuff.

early 70s US hard rock, released by Finnish label Svart. picked this up in one of their sales recently for like €2 or something.

You've heard their s/t one right?

blood, loud screaming and nudity (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Thursday, 4 April 2019 21:17 (five years ago) link

I think so. At least part of it.
Not in a while though.

Stevolende, Thursday, 4 April 2019 23:29 (five years ago) link

the only United States of America I want anything to do with

xp: the first Bang album is the one that everyone raves about - i think it's pretty good. But Mother is definitely a good listen and I love it when I'm playing it for someone who's never heard it and their version of "No Sugar Tonight" comes on

finally procured a nice copy twenty years (gah!) after first napstering it

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/238e43f808f09ce24691637a116ffcb4/6791873
disc 1 with the Shh!lp and the spoken word stuff about apocalyptic bombing etc. LP is pretty heavy dark ambient stuff.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/96e4e5f28df81f6afa389965b2a8acb5/1382042
I think I'm a lot more familiar with the next lp HBD but this is great. Possibly a bit more poppy but nice droney stuff. Has anybody else than Human Beast done rock covers of their material from either here or HBD?

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/f563a087ce771bcd95fb44dd1239c8a3/2518491
2nd disc from this . She gets pretty secular in places . Great use of electric guitar throughout.

love that cd

listening to a lot of Rhythmic Theory EPs tonight

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/8c0a3f852000eca340b4750137dc9beb/1900801
mainly disc 3 so far
Esoteric recently reissued this as a 3cd compilation including a lot of previously unreleased stuff. Disc 3 has material recorded by the band with new members playing electric instruments. Retains the hypnotic droning of the acoustic band but has electric basslines etc.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/e19e5db1e369dc9f2b0fb3727b5eb258/2344349
3rd lp by Japanese One time Group Sounds band has them getting pretty heavy & where it works this is great hard rock stuff.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/c873251b7ae86a808df12999ef937a92/5541098
late 40s recordings by him as part of a couple of electric trios. I think I mainly know his songs from recordings by Rockabilly artists about 10 years later but this is blues

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/4aa8ec2b875062101d760910c4da4066/2755752
turn of the 70s psych with great guitar. I got the Lion version.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/d62f2ce65514a3ab49b93303e522a0c3/7378365
purely instrumental lp from 2017 by a band I know cos its on Cardinal Fuzz.

Stevolende, Sunday, 21 April 2019 11:15 (four years ago) link

Yeah Esoteric are doing all the lps, they did Elements at the same time as Macbeth last month or the one before. & Alchemy has come out now. I think as a 2cd. They have things like Peel Sessions, Live recordings and other stuff on.
2nd disc of this s/t which is now called Elements is the soundtrack to Abelard and Heloise which was thought lost for decades.
