hello barumini, the best track in a future lindstrom set
― ꙮ (map), Tuesday, 15 November 2022 19:41 (one year ago) link
does lindstrom even dj, maybe i meant prins thomas
Really similar so either one! Gigi can do no wrong
― Evan, Tuesday, 15 November 2022 21:40 (one year ago) link
yeah this is terrific, different feel than calypso, maybe a little more stripped back and synthesized overall, but still all of his signature depth and lyricism

calypso is the one i can't stop listening to lately. it's like every relaxing activity you can imagine - lying in a park and staring at clouds, people watching in a cafe, taking a train ride, watching the tide go out - combined and condensed into one album.

I agree! New Greg Foat collab delivers too!
― But his face would not turn into hot Kirby (Evan), Monday, 24 July 2023 03:41 (ten months ago) link
map have you heard that in full yet? It's gorgeous but with obviously more forward piano which makes it more conventional sounding than a typical Masin record, but still feels very much a part of his universe.
Also must say that Gaussian Curve's The Distance gives me the same romantic-mundane serenity spirit as you described regarding Calypso.

I'm going to immure this Masin remix of Eddie Chacon's 'Sundown' in some far chamber of my heart and just let it roll on forever.

Probably not the right thread for it but post/thread on Twitter that would suggest, if true, that Greg Foat is a bit of an arsehole
Just Greg Foat losing his mind at me for posting on FB about my Louder Than War best albums inclusion and saying that it can be pretty challenging and thankless promoting records as an independent artist. First he dropped a little public post about it, now he’s in my DMs. pic.twitter.com/zyUCQIfohb— Scrimshire (@scrimshire) December 4, 2023
― groovypanda, Monday, 4 December 2023 21:12 (six months ago) link
wtf business is it of Foat's if some website listed scrimshire's album on their best of list? what an ass

Feels like there's a really big hole in the plot here. Otherwise it's a completely random attack by GF,which is insane.
― sawdust lagoon, Monday, 4 December 2023 21:58 (six months ago) link
I read that entire thread and I'm still not exactly clear about what it is Foat is upset about
― Paul Ponzi, Monday, 4 December 2023 22:25 (six months ago) link
Holy heck, what repellant behaviour
― blazin' squab (NickB), Monday, 4 December 2023 22:26 (six months ago) link
I lol'd at "wet wipe", though. There's got to be more to this saga.

Yeah unless there is more context to their beef I would otherwise assume alcohol or something. But it certainly seems like Greg had already had a major bone to pick with him.

ANYWHO the Masin / Modell collab record is so beautiful maybe let's focus back on that
― Evan, Tuesday, 5 December 2023 17:25 (six months ago) link
Actually it’s my favorite album of the year?

Truth be told, I'm feeling a bit emotionally fragile right now and also still finding Jamie's death hard to process so that was a hard (but very beautiful) listen
