this is what my flat sounds like at any given time
#nowplaying jeff the brotherhood 'magick songs' (2018)

nashville garage rockers exceed their potential on this one; dashes of kraut, doom, psych, and pop into a fluid whole; sci-fi themes throughout though mostly just a solid time

#nowplaying boris 'attention please' (2012)

decades in boris strikes a softer, almost seductive pose; drone interludes and heavy eye shadow; title track so impeccably cool, just waiting to make some cinematic moment completely iconic

#nowplaying modest mouse, 'everywhere and his nasty parlour tricks' (2001)

the last truly great modest mouse release; highway hypnosis and gas station hymnals; cosmic gaze and strip mall groundedness; imagine if they kept exploring this more open, expansive sound

#nowplaying pedro martins, 'rádio mistério' (2023)

'found a new guy' type of guy; the gauzy AM radio soft pop of early ariel pink grafted to walter becker-style jazzy panache; prestige bossa muzak with fuzzy edges: good fun

#nowplaying single gun theory, 'flow, river of my soul' (1994)

pure moods adjacent downtempo pop; dial-up era ambience for the global village coffeehouse; tack your dreamcatcher right above your bodhisattva figurine, a new millennium is on the horizon

#nowplaying ellen mcilwaine, 'we the people' (1973)

a curio grab bag of blues, gospel, roots and even funk; mcwaine's strong pipes hit for both scats and arias, excellent slide guitar talent, too; looking at the bio, it's odd the name isn't bigger

#musicsky #blues #folk #nowspinning #vinylsky

#nowplaying flavor crystals, 'three' (2012)

gentle, billowing guitar psychedelia; laconic pacing, demure crooning, rich runs of reverb and fuzz; look, if you like duster this will do you just fine

#musicsky #shoegaze #Minneapolis #nowspinning #duster
April 22, 2025 at 8:18 PM
#nowplaying emeka ogboh, 'beyond the yellow haze' (2021)

sonic travelogue through the streets of Lagos; rhythmic collage of percussive clack, traffic ambience, and fleeting conversation; white cube gallery austerity with crowded club undertones

#musicsky #soundscape #Lagos #berghain #nowspinning

#nowplaying gilded form, 'gilded form' (2023)

long form instrumental more about tone than development; indebted to 'treefingers,' dungeon synth, and late-period earth albums; goes down smooth: put it on and it's over before you know it

#musicsky #ambient #Nijmegen #nowspinning #moebius
April 19, 2025 at 9:26 AM
#nowplaying why? 'alopecia' (2008)

yoni wolf continues bluring abstract hip-hop and hook heavy wallowing; idiosyncratic wordplay steeped in psychosexual neuroticim; snatching purses, doing elton at karaoke and forgetting all the verses

#musicsky #rapsky #goodfriday #nowspinning
April 18, 2025 at 11:05 AM
#nowplaying jaye jayle, 'don't let your love life get you down' (2023)

spooky southern noir for brooding and glooming; tracking shots of ominous gravel roads winding through the woods; bohren and der club of gore all covered in kudzu and spanish moss

#musicsky #blues #louisville #vinylsky
April 17, 2025 at 9:38 AM
#nowplaying ryoji ikeda, 'dataplex' (2005)

lowercase macrodose; digital effervescence misted from crashing sine waves; place your tongue directly on the 9-volt battery; funny to think, this once felt like the future

#musicsky #experimental #noise #techno #nowspinning #vinylsky
April 16, 2025 at 9:22 AM
#nowplaying chat pile, 'god's country' (2022)

sludge metal big black, but bigger and darker, big vanta black, even; huffing gas in an exurban parking lot, livestreaming it; 'gummo' grime and righteous howling; grimace_smoking_weed.jpeg

#musicsky #metal #sludge #nowspinning #oklahoma

#nowplaying astor piazzolla, 'libertango' (1974)

neuvo tango touchstone from argentina's most uncompromising bandoneonista; rife with baroque padsacaglia and heady counterpoint; lends pique and drama to any task

#musicsky #tango #Argentina #nowspinning #jazzsky
April 15, 2025 at 4:22 PM
#nowplaying kush k, 'lotophagi' (2020)

went in blind to found a pleasant surprise: indie bops that resist twee impulses; measured tone built on mild jangle and drowsy bass; most interesting when things are left to slowly unspool

#musicsky #indie #Zurich #nowspinning
April 15, 2025 at 8:55 AM
#nowplaying cirith ungol, 'king of the dead' (1984)

classic metal that lives up to its moorcock-inspired album art; high fantasy tropes, low growling riffs, solos for speeding in your airbrushed astrovan; come on and ride the black machine

#musicsky #metalsky #doommetal #nowspinning #califonia
April 14, 2025 at 9:44 AM
#nowplaying eola, 'dang' (2016)

autotune spirituals for devout texture worshipers; ghostly cyborg choirs, barbershop quartets trapped in a well, a beach boys cassette left to warp in a hot car; catchier than you'd expect, all things considered

#musicsky #experimental #nowspinning #orlando
April 13, 2025 at 9:48 AM
#nowplaying mamman sani, 'unreleased tapes 1981 - 1984'

early electronic experiments out of Niger; regional folk traditions reworked for an imagined future; long burbling tracks that never quite settle; immediately upend any space

#musicsky #Niger #electronic #experimental #nowspinning
April 11, 2025 at 8:37 PM
#nowplaying black dice, 'creature comforts' (2004)

musique concrète block stuck with bubble gum; chittering insects, cartoon ufos, medusozoan tone poems; once played 'skeleton' on late night fm radio and got a call-in saying it saved their life

#musicsky #noise #ambient #nowspinning
April 11, 2025 at 9:08 AM
#nowplaying surma, 'antwerpen' (2017)

soft-focus electro-pop; purring vocals, shoegaze shimmers, and airy pads; deft, subdued, completely servicable for loafing: a mid-market scandi sofa in bone white

#musicsky #indie #electronic #nowspinning
April 10, 2025 at 8:58 PM
#nowplaying gary stewart, 'out of hand' (1975)

the sistine chapel of nashville honky-tonk; a true sadsack saloon for dancing country's two-step between the sincere and slapstick; she's acting single, you're drinking double, and stewart pours them strong

#musicsky #country #Nashville #nowspinning
April 10, 2025 at 9:37 AM
#nowplaying jack name, 'magic touch' (2020)

lightly psychedelic, slightly spectral folk; gentle and hushed, with an arcane touch that veers toward jandek at his least jandek; a record made in and made for bedrooms

#musicsky #folk #losangeles #mexicansummer #nowspinning

sounds rad, looks rad
European Drought’s Where Elk Do Slake Their Thirst is a long-form musical ode to Theodor Kittelsen’s elk, and the brooding, dark atmosphere of nature-worship evoked by the art itself. Mostly recorded in one take by the Dublin-based artist, tapes will be available this Friday.

#nowplaying yuzo iwata, 'daylight moon' (2018)

a mostly instrumental guitar safari led by a seasoned guide; over here touches of surf, there a lumbering doom riff, and look ahead: a scattered no wave jags mingling among power ballad flourishes
