easy listening

Special Christmas themed radio show thanks to error101 who’s been absent for some time, supported by a few pieces from Can and me. Going to air tomorrow on Dinamo 103.8, but couldn’t wait one more night, as it’s late anyway. A true family work! Happy Holidays everyone hope you enjoy it.

One of our best shows, music that is too precious to be forgotten. A seamless blend of exotic jungle rhythms, easy listening, jazz, space pop, burlesque, japanese music from hawaii.

Can someone transcribe this hypnotic piece from German easy listening könig Horst Jankowski. A fine anomaly from space age era 50s. I bet its pretty easy to transcribe for a German friend, but I forgot to brush my German skills after high school.

The in-house gag about this show was that we were ready to work at the BRT (a fictional state owned radio station from Brasil that resembles our TRT) simply because it never wanders off brasileira & exotica, albeit a few breathers of downtempo jazz from Cecil Taylor and Marc Copland. Play this on sunny afternoons.

This one’s got the lazy summer vibe that stopped us from making it in the first place, so beware if you are in a hurry, as this might teleport your mind to the beach and ruin your business. Tracks from Mocky, Arthur Verocai, Flora Purim, Joao Donato, Gal Costa, Lijadu Sisters..

Just to mark this point in time, in which I’m feeling quite relaxed with the sun shining on my balcony and I have a peace of mind, and it feels great. Off Dave Pike’s Manhattan Latin album

Bright and cheerful selection inspired by bright blue skies and white fluffy clouds. We have tracks from Christian Prommer, Nomo, Pat Metheny, Chaz Jankel and Horst Jankowski! Come inside!

The world of lounge, exotica and easy listening is a bottomless pit, with an unfathomable amount of golden material buried under crap music every day. Who would have thought the talented Mexican pianist Pepe Jaramillo will one day be forgotten?
