Another killer from Max Franosch.
숨 [suːm] are another incredible band from South Korea. I can’t seem to find much information on the duo (except that they are Jiha Park and Yanggeum), but they perform on what look to be traditional instruments, and the sound is both hypnotic and powerful.
This one comes from South Korea, courtesy of my good friend, Max Franosch, who has a taste for music I respect deeply.
Lucid Fall have a sound that remind some chilled-out neo-soul band married to a Dylanesque bossa nova sound. This guy is worth keeping an eye on!
If, for some reason, you can’t bother with listening to any of the thousands of other incredible classical composers and their works, you can drown yourself in the same old standards by Johann Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven. Thank Open Culture for this one.
Peak-era symphonic prog by Happy The Man, a Virginia/Washington DC-based group who once featured keyboardist Kit Watkins, who shines in this album.
Absolutely apropos for Halloween.
Before there was “The Most Interesting Man in the World,” or me, for that matter, there was Christopher Lee. He could do everything well – even cowboy songs for Halloween.
A wonderful program in French on Siberian shamanism. Listen to the music. There is a thread one would find familiar in a lot of Native American music.
It’s good to hear people take a crack at reading works by Jorge Luis Borges. This one is my favorite.
Pierre Henry was the composer who introduced me to the world of musique concrète. The fact that he and his contemporary and partner, Pierre Schaeffer, were able to do some of their early works without the use of magnetic tape, still astounds me.
Camel were one of the greatest progressive rock bands of the 1970s, easily ranking with bands like Yes and Genesis. It’s high time they got their fair due.
It looks like there was a magnificent archaeological find near the area of Pylos, Greece. The New York Times has more here.
