one more from the Ride album...this is my favorite, a kinetic screed of disillusion and retribution that, as Durruti said, is not in the least afraid of ruins:

into the no mind of momentary liberation
broken by these pills prescriptions for relief
broken by this country we get smashed into pieces
better take these pills cause everything’s for sale.
if this is being
it’s no Creation that I know
if this is fear
it’s time to go,
to make your bones
over the edge we go
this pressure, this pressure
is this the life I own?

we burn Monaco
if they go
we burn Monaco
if they go
we burn Monaco
if they go
we burn Monaco

is this the life I own?
this is the life I own

Monaco

I just got home from seeing Negativland, film screening, followed by Q&A and then 45 or so minute performance.

Doing a dive on Junip. I know I’ve bumped into them incidentally and liked, but they’re damn subtle. Take soft folkish acoustic-guitar heavy songwriting that makes me think Beta Band or Nick Drake and layer on interesting synth and fuzz layers that manage to be unobtrusive. (Lands a bit different, but puts me in mind of how earthy and natural the synths sound on Juana Molina’s later albums.)

Going in rotation for driving and late nights.

Not that 97 disc Complete Bing Crosby collection. Probably not

Hm, how do we embed youtube links now? The new "media" tag button doesn't seem to work.

Anyway, this made me think of Seance, in case you're scrolling this thread!

Bombici, Live at Studio B.

The description is that they play stuff based on Balkan wedding music, but with modern electronic touches, though I have seen them play entirely acoustic sets.

This was filmed/recorded at WQED, the Pittsburgh public PBS station that was, of course, where Mr Rogers' Neighborhood was made.


This just came out and sounds great. One of the sax players occasionally sits in with my band, and I was in the audience for this:

Bit of history on this one: it's a famously unreleased dubplate that was secretly added to a 12" repress of another Mala classic (Changes) that I'd pre-ordered before the b-side was known - they told labels/distros/people that it was a single-sided white label 12". Great for me, since I don't have a copy of Changes anyway, but putting Jah Power Dub on the B-side is an absolute chef's kiss moment.

Not only is it fantastic that this is out for the people - so you don't need to rely on a handful of producers deciding to play this particular 20-year-old plate (especially as no one who would have a copy gigs with vinyl anymore, really) or settling for a shitty youtube rip with an MC over the top, but I also have a copy that I didn't have to sell a limb for! Definitely an unexpected highlight to 2024, which was a pretty good year for me.

Youtube fed me this, pretty nuts for something with 6 million views:

Band is 88 Kasyo Junrei

This album has been on rotation for me a lot recently. I listened to it a lot when it was newer but it still is very good.

i rather like that.

Really enjoyed listening to the bryan ferry loose talk album. Spoken word on top of synth and guitar and piano stuff. Nice wind down

This new Scowl album has been on repeat. All the songs on it are absolute fuckin bops, but this one has been stuck in my head on repeat.

So cool to see a band from my area blow up doing something so cool.
