The Folk Implosion from the other night was really fun. For the first time in however many years recording music I managed to not plug in one of my mics, but at least I recorded something. Anyway I wish I could come up with weird bass lines like that.

Nearly 30 years after it's initial release, #FolkImplosion have re-released their "Kids" soundtrack with re-mastered songs, variations, and unreleased tracks.

I was already a #Sebadoh fan before this album, but I remember diving into samplers and things after hearing "Natural One" for the first time. I've never seen the film, but this soundtrack made such a huge impression on me.

"Music From Kids" is available on #BandCamp here: https://thefolkimplosion.bandcamp.com/album/music-for-kids

The word is Quest
Dinosaur Jr, “Quest” from Dinosaur, 1985

#DinosaurJr was a seminal band in the burgeoning #alternative scene, not in the spiky clubs in Boston, but out in the woods in #WesternMass.

On their debut eponymous album (their original name was Dinosaur; they had to change it after legal action by the group Dinosaurs), the music was less polished, less precise, dare I say, grungier than the #PostPunk and uptempo #NewWave flooding commercial airwaves.

There’s something very #NeilYoung about their sound, and this song in particular, and about #JMascis, the driving force of Dinosaur Jr, himself, in sound and in uncompromising attitude. #LouBarlow from the original lineup went on to form #Sebadoh, then #FolkImplosion, but indirectly, Dinosaur Jr.'s influence was far wider, launching an undercurrent of #LoFi #indie music.

The Folk Implosion's newest EP is a "four-sided record". It's an experimental format with 3 different spindle holes near the center and grooves that appear to interlock with each other. https://www.joyfulnoiserecordings.com/products/it-just-goes-with?utm_source=butts
