jazz

#62 is a sweet mix of creepy electronics, jazzy beats, easy listening, dub and soul. I wonder if mixing reggae with Merzbow works or am I making a mistake. Now it’s your call !

Some free mp3s I stumbled upon while surfing today:
* Todd Sickafoose – Future Flora – West Coast
* Todd Sickafoose – Bye Bye Bees
* Talugung – Canal Side
* Rabbit Girls – Across the Sky

One of the maturest albums of this year is by Death Ambient, I’ve checked this album a few times but couldn’t delve into it for some reason. A week or so ago I gave it another spin using headphones and I was freaking enchanted by it. Death Ambient is the laptop jazz supergroup composed of notorious experimenters Fred Frith, Ikue Mori.

* Well known avantgarde jazz guitarist Marc Ribot and other musicians were protesting the closing of world famous experimental / indie / avantgarde music venue Tonic, NYC by showing up for an improvised concert while the workers dismantled the stage!

For the first time the songs are featured on a freeserver, called sendspace. I checked through many and settled on sendspace, they never delete the link as long as it gets downloads, they give you 1200mb, they have a nice upload progress bar and you don’t have to wait to download..
