Insomnia album was really good, so up for more of that.
― calzino, Monday, 5 March 2018 23:18 (six years ago) link
in fact "really good" is selling it way short, it's quite majestic.

it's called 'Diminution'
there was a soundcloud track online but it's been removed

it's a really beautiful and spacious organic ambient record with ECM-y jazz bits and big desert-y droning sections* and maybe a Dif Juz kinda lightness of touch. really impressive
jesus christ this sounds like it's absolutely up my alley

Aye, me too - couple that with Labradford and it sounds close to perfect.

Listening to Insomnia now. Wonderful stuff so far, more varied than the usual fare, and it's got a lovely album cover to boot, drawing us away from the classic desert imagery.

It's lovely. Based on that album, Spotify is recommending me Paula Abdul, which is like, I can see your working there, but it's not very sensible.

the new Forrest Fang album Scenes From a Ghost Train is rather nice, in particular the more percussive tracks.
― calzino, Sunday, 25 March 2018 09:32 (six years ago) link
Cheers for the Leila Abdul-Ralf recommendation- her new album is great. It's like she has zoomed into, and sonically expanded, the quieter spaces of a Movietone record.

Terekke's album on Music From Memory is pure ambient bliss.. fields of soft warm synth pads. Check it!

Brian Eno has a new six-disc album available on Spotify, holy shit! I've been listening to it all morning, and it has been excellent so far.

Hilde Marie Holsen's Lazuli lp is another one made from similar parts (acoustic trumpet, electronic manipulation). It's definitely more on the chillout end of the EA/Improv spectrum.

Legiac also did this 4.5-hr mix of stuff which is really lovely: https://reviews.headphonecommute.com/2016/02/09/roel-funcken-the-voynich-manuscript-mix/

i have nothing against funcken or this mix or anything, but we really need some standards regarding the term 'voynich manuscript'
