oh "places of worship"? that was perhaps a little bit "meh". all things being relative, though y'know pretty grand in the overall scheme of things despite the cloying (and "cloying" is sometimes a problem w/ henriksen) concept and one of his co-conspirators doing a sylvian-u-likey vocal

There's a new one, The Nature of Connections, due next week or so.

ohh thanks didn't know. write-up on the RuneG site sounded a bit lacklustre, but the soundcloud tuneage turned me round:https://soundcloud.com/rune-grammofon/hambopolskavalsen

I know I ask this on an annual basis ... but any (new) recommendations?
I presume there are people who follow the label *properly*?
I'm mildly tempted by RCD2173 - Espen Eriksen Trio: Never Ending January.

It sounds nice from clips.

Not technically Rune Gram but there's a new Susanna album on its way:

Hmm ...

Deathprod and Supersilent will be joining the label Smalltown Supersound @supersound for future explorations. More news to come.

"I know I ask this on an annual basis ... but any (new) recommendations?"
Also, there's a new Susanna album of covers (Not on RG) coming up plus a Bonnie Prince Billy album of Susanna covers ...
Have been playing the first compilation mentioned above (in 2014) this evening.

Ridiculous thought for the evening: might try and compile the Supersilent albums I own into a single disc "Best of".

The Terje Rypdal-tribute cd "Sky Music" is pretty good.

Thanks - will check it out.

I put the first of those (homemade) compilations on Spotify, as my original CD is unplayable. There are a couple of gaps where I've not been able to figure out tracks:

The new Elephant9 record, 'Arrival of the New Elders', is really something. Didn't know whether to put this in a rolling jazz thread or w/e, but it's the business. Like a spiritual electronic jazz record. Crazy good musicians.

I loved Psychedelic Backfire 1, so you are speaking my language.
