[Music] Louvat Bros. – Sledd Riding (with Debalina Bhowmick)
I had the privilege of meeting the Louvat Bros., who are ably represented by Patrick De Loecker out of Belgium, as well as the talented vocalist Debalina Bhowmick, who hails from Kolkota, India. I also had the opportunity to witness this improvisation at the Without Borders World Music Conference in Varna, Bulgaria, in September of 2015, where I was able to see a lot of old friends and made what I hope to be new, long-lasting ones.

[Music] Prince RIP – I Would Die 4 U
Prince has died. Another massive loss, another long round of phone calls of friends sharing why they saw him as a pivotal artist during the 1980s. May he rest in peace.
[Music] The Orchestra Of Mirrored Reflections – Dnepr|Odessa (Live)
The Orchestra Of Mirrored Reflections are a project out of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine, who are led by guitarist Jol Tai. They make a music reminiscent of musicians like Jon Hassell and bands like Tuxedomoon at their most experimental.
These folks are definitely going to be worth following.
[Music] Valeri Fabrikant / CLC
From The Sunday Experience:
there was a time in mid to late 90’s when it seemed like Montreal was the centre of the musical universe, beneath the safe haven of Constellation records the likes of godspeed and fly pam am where left to nurture their post rock atmospherique. Some two decades down the line, yes two decades, time really does fly, its seems as though Veleri Fabrikant and CLC have keenly been influenced, influenced enough in fact to embrace that same spirit by tailoring their collaborative epic in the shadows ‘say goodbye to the world as we know it’ in the same kind of quietly majestic intricacy. At nearly 14 minutes in length ‘sun worshippers / gold diggers’ provides for a masterclass in both refrain / sustain and poise / pause, like the Grails magnified at quarter speed, there’s a dark beauty evolving and dissolving here amid a panoramic canvas populated by the sparse drone detailing and squirrelling scrapes that suggests an affinity with Kranky acts LaBradford and Stars of the Lid while likewise serving upon something carved with such stilled grandeur one suspects closer inspection might well be rewarded several fold.

[Music] David Bowie & Klaus Nomi – The Man Who Sold The World
You expect David Bowie to tear up his own song in an amazing performance. You don’t expect Klaus Nomi to join him and up the weird quotient a thousand fold. This collaboration was done on SNL many years ago.
