I like how you have that dumb Savz quote as your tagline and it really summarises one of my half page rants 😆

They aren't comfortable, but I loved my Grado SR125s until they suffered an unfortunate accident. I have a pair of SR80s now and I love them too, nothing like a good open can. I use MDR-7506s for field recording, have DT 770 PROs for my editing bays, and a pair of Cambridge Melomania bluetooth thingamabobs I use for podcasts while on the move.

I didn't know this existed, but it's so good.

It reminds me a lot of the only other album I've heard of him, called Quiet Forest:

I kept exploring Hiroshi Yoshimura a bit and I quickly found my favourite album of his. It's called Flora:

I can't stop listen to it. It's so beautiful and relaxing. There's an ethereal quality to the whole album, but maybe these two tracks in particular. Absolutely gorgeous. Asagao sounds a bit like Ennio Morricone going ambient.

Fantastic stress relieving music, which I think a lot of people could use right now.

Loving all this Klaus, much appreciated.

Coombs

Really nice, Klaus. Pleasantly surprised, not what I expected.

I have no idea how that's evaded me until now. That was great stuff. I enjoyed the Pink Floyd-nods in the first half, not just the synth but his phrasing was quite Gilmour-ish. Then the second half was even better. Really enjoyed that.

Great sounds, Klaus.
This is one of the few reasons I would want to be the really rich man the rapper Quincy believes I am. I recently had to take apart my sound system for a sound bar in the living room at the request of the chairperson. Would be great to have a room just for these babies, with a view of the South African veld rolling out before me. A place to escape from the madness

Watched it like five times now, absolutely stunning video. I've seen loads of Lil Buck videos over the years but usually jookin to Tommy Wright III or Triple Six Mafia, not the Galperine brothers 😆 Trois Femmes is the perfect choice for the painting too. Hats off to whoever thought of combining these for a video clip.

Bill Withers RIP

Daz

Yeah RIP. Dude wrote some beautiful, classic songs.

Couple of Queen programmes on Channel 5 and Sky Arts just now (both UK). Never fail to be amazed at the talent and showmanship. Good way to spend a nigh in lockdown.

Following up on the theme of nature-sampling music that is good for the soul, I found another ambient treasure drove in Virginia Astley. I can't believe I had never heard of her before. This composition is from an 1983 album called From Gardens Where We Feel Secure:

It reminds me a little bit of Zbigniew Preisner's fantastic score to the movie The Secret Garden.

Hiroshi Yoshimura's Surround album has just been reissued 3 weeks back. Lovely ambient listen for anyone that's curious.

Florian Schneider just passed away in cancer. I had no idea he was sick.

My favourite anecdote about him is how he co-founded the most important electronic group of all time, and then quit it 38 years later because of a row over a bicycle pump.

Drunk theory; Freddie Gibbs is the Mark E Smith of hip hop.
