[Music] SPK: From Disease to Disco
Vice Magazine is terrible for politics now. However, whoever is editing their music articles is going sterling work. We continue on introducing readers to SPK, courtesy of this article posted by Moe Bishop here.
The song featured above, Retard, is from SPK’s album, Auto Da Fé.
[Music] Hakobune ~ Apsidal Motion / Chihei Hatakeyama & Corey Fuller ~ Euphotic — a closer listen
Takahiro Yorifuju’s music is soothing and supple, but new heights are reached on the single, 42 minute Apsidal Motion. Inspired by the starlit sky of Nigata and the countryside of Japan, Apsidal Motion is a dreamy delight. Above all, it’s beautiful music, and we mustn’t take its beauty for granted. Under the stars (and absent of any kind of […]

[Music] Gasoline – A Journey Into Abstract Hip-Hop [Full album]
I have to admit that, as someone who grew up in the 1980s and 1990s, and who enjoyed hip-hop when it came out, today’s batch is not my cup of tea, to put it as politely as possible.
This record, by the French group Gasoline, is a massive exception. They have something which reminds me of the good old days.
[Music] Sons Of Kemet – In The Castle Of My Skin
Britian-based Sons of Kemet bring together a fusion of Nubian, Egyptian, jazz and even a Gypsy sound with a raucous beat. Wicked stuff!
[Music] Otomo Yoshihide @ Transformer Station, Cleveland 5/09/16
From the Youtube site of Rob Galo:
Otomo Yoshihide’s entire performance at the gallery Transformer Station, in the Hingetown / Ohio City district of Cleveland, Ohio. The concert took place on 5/09/16. It was part of the concert series CMA At The Transformer Station.
Otomo’s set that evening composed of Ornette Coleman’s “Lonely Woman,” his own composition “The Blue Kite” (I believe) and Charlie Haden’s “Song For Che,” in that order.
[Music] News From Silber Media: QRD touring musician interviews & more
Hello,
I hope all is going well. It’s been a few years in the making, but QRD finally launched the touring musician interview series (featuring Alan Sparhawk of Low, Phil Dole of Chord, Shane DeLeon of Miss Massive Snowflake, Chris Brokaw of Lemonheads, Mkl Anderson of Drekka, & a few more). Let me know what you think of the series & if I should keep it going. This issue also has feature interviews with M is We & Lycia as well as a label owner interview with Manuel of Records Ad Nauseum & a cartoonist interview with Larry Johnson & a couple short stories from Phil Dole & Nathan Amundson. Spread the word about whatever interview is your favorite if you can.

In the music news front there is a ton of stuff about to happen. Releases from Chvad SB, Bronze Eye+LD, Yellow6, Anda Volley, Moodring, Electric Bird Noise, Hotel Hotel, Dyr Faser, M is We, & a ton of others are all about to happen given I figure out how to balance time well enough to get press releases & promotions ready. So keep an eye out on social media & your inbox for when those things happen. I’ll be sending newsletters out a little more often than every two months once releases start kicking out every couple of weeks.
If you need one inch buttons made, I added a new option where you get 35 buttons with up to 35 different designs for $17 plus shipping. Great option for people with a lot of design ideas, but not ready to commit to the typical requirement of 100 buttons per design. Get the template & more info at www.silbermedia.com/buttons/custom.shtml
That’s it for me for now.
Thank you for your interest & support, I couldn’t do it without you. If you want to be taken off the mailing list just let me know.
