Is No Longer.

Tuesday and it’s raining.

The playlist’s been something like:

Fennesz/Jeck/Matthews / Amoroso: a tribute to the “sacred minimalism” of Arvo Part, Amoroso’s a continuation of the Touch label’s series of 7″ gems. Christian Fennesz and Philip Jeck manipulate and toy with organist Charles Matthew’s performances. Sublime stuff.

Pocahaunted / Island Diamonds: Fresh from the Arbor press, Island Diamonds is Pocahaunted through a hazy fog of dub and drenched out beats. It’s cosmic.

Strategy / Electric Soup: Paul Dickow’s first bit of 2008 material as Strategy, Electric Soup, is a blissfully tripped out 12″ of electric beeps and blips. Woozy wisps, degraded tapeloop, buzzing drones… Yum.

Adult Swim: It’s always on here in the dorms so, sometimes I watch it. It’s kind of funny now and then. Regardless of my feelings on it though, they have a habit of releasing these free-for-download albums. They’ve done, thus far, two with Stones Throw (Chrome Children 1 & 2) and one that featured an amalgam of cross-genre artists ranging from Fennesz to Asobi Seksu. Needless to say, they’re intriguing. Their latest comes as a collaboration with Ghostly records. Snatch it up.

Last night’s performance went well. A friend of ours, Dan, snapped some snazzy pics.

Tomorrow’s the radio show. Perk up your ears.

Wailing institute tonight in the Cabaret. The show should be crazy, nine weirdos all playing organized chaos. 8 o’ clock on the dot. I’ll try to post some evidence of its outlandishness tomorrow.

Mondays…

Music I’ve been enjoying recently:

Religious Knives / Resin: a compilation album of sorts, Religious Knives’ music throughout the years. It’s dark, lo-fi, drone-inspired krautrock, maybe.

The Microphones / The Glow Pt. 2 Reissue: released recently by K records, there’s an entire second disc of goodies. Some weird spacey takes on tracks like “I Want Wind to Blow” and “The Glow Pt. 2″ really make worthwhile.

Jasper TX / This Quiet Season: Dag Rosenqvist continually lulls me into dream-like states. This Quiet Season comes as 40 minutes of simply gorgeous drone.

Quetzolcoatl / Sleeping Within The Sun: Easily one of my favorite artists as of late, Tim Hurley’s music is distanced, fuzz-drenched drone. Looped layers of distorted feedback; sonic bliss. I could write a thousand metaphors for it, but, they’d all be rather silly.
