I was hoping that Ludmila Carpio would make it to Melbourne but alas no. 

 

 

Terry Riley - for @@buddyev - not only recorded, but available in Melbourne.  Surprisingly, it works!  I picked up my copy from the Theosophical Bookshop in Russell St, one of the guys there has an amazing music knowledge that is wider than the shiop's primary customer base.  As a result, things such as this are found in their sale bins.

 

It's worth checking out their web site.

 

I havent been in there for years. Thanks for the reminder.

Hi, is it on LP? I preordered the vinyl at a number of different places, only to miss out. The first pressing sold out fast. I'm waiting for a repress. This is my front runner for album of the year 2015.

Cheers,

Leigh

Hi Leigh -  mine is a CD copy.

Tunji Oyelana - compilation on Soundway records. Often sparse, but heavy african funk. 3 bits of vinyl, 21 tunes, and some excellent liner notes, too.

 

 

For a taster, check out this one...

This is fantastic music.

Thanks for the head up TDD about the Theosophical Bookshop.i went today - they have a nice and surprising collection of great music from all round the world as well ECM and some great australian jazz (once you get past the whale, meditation and healing music that is).

Hi Leigh -  mine is a CD copy.

Theosophical Bookshop... who would have thought? I ventured in there the other day, spent an enjoyable hour chatting to their CD buyer very knowledgeable guy by the name of Perry, his voice sounded familiar, ahah, you've filled in as announcer for Roger Holdsworth's Global Village on PBS FM I said. Discovered that he also has his own show In the Quiet: Sundays 10pm - 12am

 

http://pbsfm.org.au/inthequiet

 

< In the Quiet is a music show broadcasting music featuring silence, or quietude, as an intentional aspect of the composition. Stylistically it crosses a broad spectrum of music – ambionica (ambient + electronica), improvised music, spoken word, new composition, jazz, drone, global sounds, post-everything and on occasion, pre-anything. It's about aural landscapes, music that stretches far in to the horizon, but doesn't ignore those small details beside you.

You can expect to hear Kazuya Nagaya, Harold Budd, Arja Kastinen, Sophie Hutchings, Luke Howard, Sunwrae Ensemble, Robert Rich, Antonymes , Iarla O'Lionaird, Library Tapes, Amiina, Aidan Baker, Luduvico Einaudi, Nick Tsiavos, Meredith Monk, Bill Laswell, Kate Carr, The Necks, Peter Broderick, Alessandra Celletti and a whole lot more that you and I may or may not yet know.

The music we'll listen to is as much about a feel. Oceanic, narcotic, raga-like, spacious, autumnal, playful, naive, enchanting, weird, minimalist, restive... I hope you can join me In the Quiet >

 

we better tune in or stream from archive!

Picked this up in Turkey last year. Perfect for a miserable day, waiting to go to work.

This years Songlines Awards winners.

Toumani and Sidiki get my vote too, they were amazing at Womadelaide

 

Moritz von Oswald has a new album coming out in June with another Songlines winner Tony Allen on drums!

 

http://www.forcedexposure.com/Artists/VON.OSWALD.TRIO.MORITZ.html

 

< a fearless exploration of dub techno, classical music, and jazz -- but the prevailing mood feels looser and more organic than ever before. Allen's imperious percussive work sits tantalizingly in the mix. His drums meet the electronics of von Oswald and Loderbauer in a way that renders the project in new, vivid colors. There are 4/4 tracks, beatless interludes, and complex jazz structures, with propulsive recordings ("3") coexisting alongside more languid moments ("1"). Sometimes Allen provides flourishes of drums (notably on "4") while at other times spectral synths come to the fore (as on "5"). Von Oswald, a masterful composer and arranger with a deep understanding of space, paints the crevices of each composition on Sounding Lines with rich detail. Individually, von Oswald, Loderbauer, and Allen are formidable and hugely influential musicians. As a trio, they've conjured something remarkable. Tony Allen, drums; Max Loderbauer, synthesizers; Moritz von Oswald, percussion sequencing, synthesizers, additional electronics. >

 

mixed by DJ extraordinaire Ricardo Villalobos, should be interesting! Seen his recording studio equipped with Martion Orgon spherical horns?

Gotan Project-Tango 3.0.

Just scored this on one of my op shop forays. Folkways Records - in mono but ' rechannelled to simulate stereo' it says on the cover. I didnt hold out much hope but its a fanatstic recording - really raw and present. Also features one of the bewildering range of indian stringed instruments i ve never heard of - the gottuvuadyam, which is a vina played with slide bar

....a double tribute album from 2004. Mainly Euro takes on the D.C.D. catalogue. Some quite ' folksy' , others verging on symphonic metal ( no cookie monster vocals, but a few double bass drum sorties).

One lengthy disc at a time. Both sides would be overwhelming.

ZM.

Toumani and Sidiki get my vote too, they were amazing at Womadelaide ....

 

 

Some Chinese traditional flute music before calling it quits for tonight.

 

 

Recorded in Beijing in 1994.

 

A mate was playing this in his car yesterday, hmmmm, that's new, sounds a little like Konono No.1, no...... it's from back in 82 - 84
