a cover version is acceptable. this is too easy. 'artists' keep working with manafon tracks because of the ease with which one can isolate the vocal track. 'recomposed'? it's a matter of 'how do i make this track sound like sylvian's more accessible work'. you don't. you leave it be.

to be clear, most don't wish their music messed with unless it's a specific commission. it's like having the gall to re-edit someones movie, add alternate audio to choreography, realign the spatial specifics of poem on a page etc. I get it, you like it. it's not my work, it's a bastardisation.

www.theguardian.com/music/2025/s... danny wasn’t just wildly talented with one of the most recognisable double bass tones ever produced; he had a wonderfully disarming sense of humor, a dominant voice that loved sharing a good story of which he had countless. no airs, all round good fella. missed.

why always a negative when it impacts your life and bypasses my own. those four records do not belong to me. i don't own them nor will my children but they are, in whatever small amount, benefiting other's. when told albums are being released i have two choices, leave well alone, or engage. choice?
