Mali Obomsawin - Automatic (Out of Your Head) [Jazz]

"the musicians decide undulating free jazz and an ambient noise outro is their answer to an "institutional music world", and I couldn't agree more."

"all the tracks huddle together for the greater, quietly experimental good, and provide a really lovely start to finish listen"

time for more coffee... ☕ ☕ :flag_scotlandparrot: ☮️ :yes_scotland:

I believe that #Scotland and the people of Scotland can be better served as an #independent Nation...

#ScottishIndependence... is the best way of having a progressive country and not have a corrupt #westminster pulling any of our levers of power...

@drahardja Do you guys really think the Dems will get "better" if you dump Jefferies?

If you do, who's going to replace him?

AOC or her clone? If so, do you think the membership will stand behind her any more uniformly than behind Jefferies?

The problem with the Dem Party is it's lack of unity. The strength of the Repub Party (as wrongheaded as it is) is it's steadfast & unthinking unity behind Drumpf.

There's NO fix for this except rational thought among the voters for "better" -- more fiscally responsible, diplomatically sensible & socially empathetic policies -- but there's been a distinct absence of such for while.

IMO, the best we can hope for is that #Dumpf & his minions have pissed off enough of their #MAGA & #Independent supporters in the mid-terms so that the Dems can retake control of the #House & #Senate to restore some balance to politics in Washington.

For the followers of mine on here that are fans of my music -

A few months ago, I started compiling a lot of the B-sides, rarities, compilation tracks, weird abandoned demos, and various other ephemera from the past 20 years or so.

I guess you could call them the “Canada strays”, because it’s all stuff from after I moved to the island, about 20 years ago.

I have put together a nice curated collection of these songs (30 plus!) into one nice little package called Low-Budget Horror, and it’s up and available for download if you’re interested.

It’s “Name Your Own Price”, so feel free to steal it if you want, or you can throw me a few bucks if you like, too.

This is true #indie music; odd and catchy #noisepop , #folk #acoustic stuff , weirdo #electronic and #synth , and abrasive #industrial #alternative rock.

It’s all over the place, but pretty damn cool sounding.

Yours if you’re curious.

-Ape

"post-rock reflection, the hypnotic kosmische groove of "Spiral" - perhaps my pick of the bunch, the acid-ritualism of "Hypogean" and the cosmic wonder of "Dark Alignment"

Jules Reidy - Clerestory Windows V

"Reidy heads off on a solo mission to refract part of the collaborative work; first showcasing the "fundamental" with insistent, minimal electronic refrains that scurry over the more considered guitar"
