soundscapes

Last week’s Undomondo Radio Show #87 – A tribute to Nursel Kaymaz a friend we lost at the ripe age of 32.

The idea of progress has been slowly dying. No one wants to live in the future. No finds the Future attractive any longer. The only thing left to believe in is collapse. That’s not boring! The end of civilization would be terribly exciting, and unlike any future we could imagine, probably more likely. We all are collapsitarians these days.

Black Medicine Music from Stag Hare, rapidfire freejazz from Chicago’s DKV Trio (Hamid Drake, Kent Kessler , Ken Vandermark), Murky urban ghetto tales from Ciccone Youth aka Sonic Youth, a free piano composition from Muhal Richard Abrams that converges to infinity and finally an elegiac by Andrew Liles.

Back from our one-week vacation. Couldn’t post anything in the meantime but never stopped to think about our fellow readers while basking in the hot sun and selected some tunes that should accompany you on your future trips to the beach.

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

Continuing our soulful hiphop tour, renowned beatdigger Steve Ellison aka Flying Lotus is soon to have his sophomore album “Los Angeles” out on UK’s Warp. His debut “1983″ on Carlos Nino’s (Ammoncontact / Build an Ark) Plug Research was very well received and so was his “Reset EP” on Warp, which is pure gold!.

Numbered #53, last week’s show begins with a theme of soundscapes, dubstep and noise, while the second part is more jazzed-up, soulful and dubby.

Here are some of the dead links from the past months, the Shackleton remix by Ricardo Villalobos has been getting mad clicks but it’s been dead for a while, so are the others. Enjoy!
