Late night choice..

Chilly.




Revolutionary.

Tonight if got time, wanna spin this LP of mine. Gonna cut loose of me self tonite.....heheh..definitely not your goody-sweet mama-alice in wonderland-bedtime-sing-along, eh ?

Listened to that 2V1G album today. Well, nice enough, good voices, good guitar but after like 5 songs I kinda longed for some percussion or maybe a piano...

Timeless.

from an old hippie,
the 1st 2 allman brothers album.
like an old love.
rekindling my lost youth.
and for the fire,
their filmore east album at full blast.

Just bought this today, awesome smoky-laid-back blues all the way. Damn syok.....makes me feel doin' the bbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!..just like that Coke commercial..heheh...This particular album does not contain the regular rip-roaring blues that makes you wanna jump and shout 'Yeahh' like their usual release (hence 'The Quite Side'). This album is more that makes you lay down to your chair and makes you recall your past...be it good or bad...bright or dark. This album will stir your soul...........

Bro, you can use the "host an image" icon and paste the url by clicking the url button, clcik "host it" , then copy the url link. Click the Image Icon (next to host an image) paste the link by pressing control V and click ok.

Alternate between Traxx fm on 90.3MHz or 100.1Mhz or news chan at 93.9MHz during the day. Rock music from BFM at 89.9MHz during the evenings and late into the night, some really chill out keroncong over at 104.1MHz. In between stations it would be some lo-fi indie downloads played of a memory stick on a DVD machine. CD selection in local outlets has been rather poor lately. Britney anyone?

This is as intimate a recording of The Four Seasons as you will ever likely come across, due entirely to the complete immersion of the phenomenal Connecticut Early Music Festival Ensemble into the spirit and essence of Vivaldi, under the directorship of ageless maestro, Igor Kipnis.

With each of the eight Connecticut Ensemble members taking his or her part--- three violins, viola, cello, bass, theorbo/archlute/guitar, and harpsichord--- Vivaldi's concerti Op. 8, No.'s 1-4 become chamber-like, wistful, utterly personal. And contrary to what we might presume, even with its bare bones showing, this Four Seasons becomes yet more profound. Textures hidden beneath typical orchestral forces, embellishments subdued or repressed entirely, or melodic lines no longer articulated (or too well integrated to hear), have a sudden clarity, variety and emotional impact that is startling and completely convincing--- as well as being thoroughly thrilling.

The keen scholarship of Kipnis is telling at every turn, as in the use of Richard Stone's theorbo, archlute or baroque guitar interspersed throughout; or Eli Potash's self-built and wonderfully rich and baroquely gruff bass, tuned in fifths; or Kipnis' own harpsichord contribution, a marvel in itself, and particularly rewarding (as in the Adagio of "Autumn")--- yes! we do actually get to HEAR the harpsichord! (At long last.)

Lead violinist Jorg-Michael Schwarz is to be commended for his beautiful tone, grace and musical emapthy; but, then, it would be a disservice not to commend every member of the Connecticut Ensemble for fabulously rich and inspiring craftsmanship, and for allowing us the treasures manifest in their playing.

Also on the CD is the Flute Concerto in D, Op. 10, No. 3 ("The Goldfinch"), RV 428, here played rapturously by John Slocum on a mid-18th century one-keyed boxwood flute. Superb!

To round things out, we have a concerto (listed as RV 546), probably for violin and cello, reconstructed brilliantly, and convincingly, by Kipnis as a three movement Harpsichord Concerto (RV 78) in A.

Absolutely first-rate sound: warm, comfortable, inviting, detail-rich.

By Melvyn M. Sobel

This recording is probably the best of the 3 I have in my possession.

Probably would never find another with so many accomplished female vocalists in one single album.

The Hunter...

On current heavy rotation


Editors - An End Has A Start. Also have the latest album which is very very different


Spiritualized - Lazer Guided Melodies


Adele - 19


Snow Patrol - Up To Now - The Best Of Snow Patrol


And some ECM Jazz, Ferenc Snetberger - Nomad
Snetberger is jazzier in nature compared to Antonio Forcione but a tad bit slower post but his technical skills are no less though less showy.

Awaiting delivery to my house

Long Range - Madness and me


The Stone Roses - Second Coming
I really enjoyed their debut but heard a lot of negative reviews on this one. Checking it out as going for a snipe in Amazon UK (GBPO 2.98)



And..

Mark Hollis - Mark Hollis

Pure bliss yesterday ......

Tonight.....

For those who like Keith Jarreth, Art Barkley, Miles Davis, try this Men... Ahmad Jamal was former Miles Davis Pianist..this men is legend

Tonight....

This amazingly appeared yesterday @ Artist Gallery QB Penang. Just couldn't resist. Can still remember cycling to Komtar in those days to buy the cassette album. Perfect electronic pop imho and my favourite Erasure album apart from "The Circus", "Wonderland" & "Wild".

New Age music on burning asphalt !!...explosive, dynamic, total impact !!

Mr Joy Division will love this

One can understand the timeless classic of Joy Division and why they inspired the likes of U2, Simple Minds, Editors, and many more bands..


I personally feel Yellowjackets have lost their mojo for last couple albums but the latest shows some slight recovery


Classic Talk Talk album after the Colour of Spring.. Very jazz oriented.

watched the heavy rain just now from my balcony, listened to the rumbling of thunder from their electric cracklings to the basso profundo roll-offs and later the chirps of birds.

now i wonder how hi my fi.

Michael Jackson - This is It! This is more of as compilation album but hey the recording quality's excellent and there's Whacko Jacko's last song "This is it"


Loreena McKennitt - A Meditarranean Odyssey. "A glittering addition to Loreena McKennitt's catalogue, A Mediterranean Odyssey combines new live performances of audience favourites from her 2009 Mediterranean Tour with a collection of previously released studio recordings, personally selected by Loreena. " The album's a local pressing though but quality's not too bad



New Order - The Best Of New Order. Just had to get this for old times sake. Need more be said?

This came in yesterday and really blew me away with its sonics. Make sure your system has sufficient PRAT! I believe if you like Mogwai you should also enjoy this..

Explosions in the Sky - All of a Sudden I Misss Everyone


Got this more for nostalgic reasons..

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue. Slowly sinking in. Still prefer The Dave Brubeck' Quartet's Time Out.


The best in the Strange Cargo series. William Orbit's Strange Cargo III. Electronic ambient with a twist of dance thrown in.

arctic monkeys - humbug 2009

fourplay - (selftitle) 1991

Got myself 2 Naim label CDs. Contemporary jazz..

Fred Simon - Dream House



Patrick Noland Group - Passage To Thought

Oh.. just got this.. Prefer 10,000 Maniacs though. Ms Merchant can occasionally sound like she's just going thru the numbers to me.

Some chinese even though I know peanuts

Yoga Lin - Senses Around


Desserts Zhang Xuan - City. She has got to be my favourite rock chick!

Kari Bremnes Live (recordings from concerts in Norway and Germany)

Sting - Ten Summoner's Tales

Sting - Ten Summoner's Tales

A friend just came back from the US and helped get me these. Strings galore for all 3 CDs. Violins, cellos, violas, etc are the order of the day

Paul Hartnoll - The Ideal Condition. I've always been a major Orbital fan and had to get the solo albums when Orbital split. Whereas Long Range is more electronic in nature and more akin to the Orbital sound, "The Ideal Condition" is Paul finding his voice errrr electronic sound. Lotsa strings with some tracks sounding akin soundtrack scores. My favourite whiner Robert Smith aka The Cure's frontman is singing the 4th track "Please". Oh and the Scorpios are also excellent with electronic music and major priority for me.



Kate Havnevik - Melankton. Very breathy vocals ala Imogen Heap and Emmy Rossum. Whereas Ms Rossum is too poppy and comes across as an Imogen rip-off, Ms Havnevik differentiates her music with lotsa strings and orchestral scores



Lars Danielsson - Tarantella. One of the best contemporary jazz albums of 2009 imho. Lars Danielsson is a Swedish bassist and cellist composer but oh boy are the pianos great. Very layered and excellent recording

acid house kings - sing with acid house kings
swedish pop! yay!


four tet - there is love in you
IDM can't get better than this.


linda perhacs - parallelograms
acid folk obscuro

Too busy listening to my other 3 cds and did not realise this was in the mailbox. Managed to sneak a quick listen before wife came back from gym. Another pretender to the Kate Bush/Tori Amos crown. Polly Scattergood's debut album. More electronic in nature and signed to Mute Records.

Polly Scattergood - Polly Scattergood
