A few days ago something incredible happened to us, the prominent collective mp3blog Motel de Moka tagged us as one of the 5 blogs that made them think with a meme originated by The Thinking Blog. It’s our first ever tag and it makes us proud to be tagged specifically by this meme that’s about our favourite organ. Yeah the gray matter up there!.

Based on well-known anonymous folk songs from the Turkish Black-Sea region, this album from ‘98 is one of the best Turkish folk & jazz fusion albums i’ve ever had the pleasure to check out.
The album is successful not only for being a very well executed and nicely interpreted jazz album but also for not [...]

Lovely work by Mary Allen Mark of The Art Dept.
Slow start with The Tree People’s self titled folk effort on Tiliqua and then a great song by Helsinki natives Korpi Ensemble which effortlessly fuse jazz and folk into pop sensibilities. We continue with a song with a taster of Feist’s new album The oReminder, followed [...]

Finnish avant prog big band Alamaailman Vasarat has just released their long expected new album Maahan on Wolfgang Records. I’ve already been highly impressed by their second album Käärmelautakunta and its dark symphonic melodies, but unfortunately couldn’t find the time to write about them.

I can’t take the whole credit for this, thanks to my sucky mixing skills and an occasional bad apple. Not to bore you with our petty in-house dynamics, mersenne corrected my poor excuse for fade outs and squeezed in a song from his own vault. This time the set’s more moodier than usual (at least [...]

However that issue is not fixed yet and the new show’s nearing so I’m letting this [...]

Lest we keep up with the radio show on the net with #3 of our weekly installments. It’s now on Archive.org for everyone to enjoy, I’ve also added tracklist to #2, so if that’s been holding you down from downloading, now it’s time to download. I’m still trying to recover from last nights Messer Chups [...]

Hadouk Trio is the brain child of Didier Malherbe and Loy Ehrlich with percussionist Steve Shehan. All three are multi instrumentalists, and the music sounds very rich and the instruments are warm, especially the Dodouk (from which the second part of the word Hadouk comes from) is ultra warm…

Just in sync with Motel de Moka’s recommendation of undomondo for Turkish music, our news hound error101 has been digging the crates for some old Turkish music, and apparently 2 great oldies mp3blogs have published some 60’s 70’s Anatolian Rock albums in the same time as well.

I’ve been holding my breath for this album since the moment I read about it. First, I really liked the previous Jamie Saft Trio album that played tunes from the Masada Songbook. Then Jamie Saft is one of the best sound engineer/producers/pianists around and Bob Dylan is highly respected here, I wondered what the outcome [...]
