I’ve been watching for your list, as I often like your plays. As always, so many that I’ve only heard of and plenty unknown to me. I will definitely have the Djrum album on my list—1 of a few “electronic” albums I really enjoyed this year. Also will have SML, Takuro Okada, & Uhlmann Johnson Wilkes.

That Smoke Point record was so good! I’d love to hear another from them.

It’s my wife’s story, but it goes something like this: when she was young, her dad decided to burn the Xmas tree in the fireplace, whole. There was a sap abundance and a small backdraft fireball which rocketed up the mantle. Somehow, a cherub stocking hanger survived, with a soot-blackened face.

Granted, I did make that comment before scrolling further in my feed and seeing the news that DeJohnette has passed away. No disrespect meant to his excellent work and life!

I know this post is about DeJohnette, but just want to point out that anything with Joe Henderson on it is a winner.

Love the closing line tonight, @hcrichardson.bsky.social!

Haven’t heard it yet, but so much of his work is amazing.

Great collection of artists! Looking forward to listening. (Should out to Paul Strategy!)

This record gives me chills, every time.

Great listening pair with the 2nd (recent) Horsegirl album!
