Peace & Love were a psychedelic rock/garage band out of Mexico. There isn’t much available about the band in English, but for those who can handle Spanish, this website gives a nice synopsis of their career.
[Music] Isihia [Исихия] – Lord I Called Thee [Господи Возвах]
[Music] Yusef Lateef Quartet – Yesterdays
Yusef Lateef was a multi-instrumentalist and one of the most unique voices jazz ever produced.
[Music] Thomas Köner – Nuuk
Thomas Köner is a German multimedia artist who is best known for his brooding ambient soundtracks, as well as his forays into techno as Porter Ricks. This album is a reissue on the label Rhizomatique.
[Music] Boomerang – Mirage (Kazakhstan/USSR, 1986)
Another Soviet ethno-jazz project of high quality. Boomerang hailed from Kazakhstan, and this particular album is considered their rarest.
[Music] Gregory Ayriyan – s/t
After years of having to let this project lie dormant, I’m proud to announce the resurrection of my record label, the Carrera-Linn Cultural Exchange (CLCX). Our first release is from the Russian-based Armenian-American violinist Gregory Ayriyan, who composed all but three of the tracks on this disc. The other composers include Sayat Nova, Komitas, and Niccolò Paganini, so he interprets the cream of the crop.
[Music] Throbbing Gristle – Dead On Arrival
Throbbing Gristle were the band responsible for introducing the concept of Industrial Music to the world, for better or for worse. This track comes from the 1978 release of D.o.A: The Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle.
[Music] Los Locos del Ritmo – Malagueña Salerosa
Malagueña Salerosa is a Son Huastengo song from Mexico, covered expertly by Mexican garage rock legends Los Locos Del Ritmo.
[Music/Podcast] Sneum’s Palads / Lake Radio
Two radio programs to share from Jan Sneum, a wonderful radio host and commentator I met at the Without Borders Festival in Balchik, Bulgaria.

[Music] Sato – Pereday Dabró Pá Krúgu (Uzbekistan/USSR, 1987)
Through scouring the net over the past 20 years, I’ve come to find that Uzbekistan hides a treasure trove of music. First, prog-rock seems to be relatively popular there (bands like Fromuz and magazines like ProgressoR come to mind).
However, this release was a true gem. Ethno-jazz performed by the band Sato, who have almost nothing in terms of information online.
Thanks to the blog Digg Hop for the information they provided to an intriguing band.
