THE CZARS
Best Of
2014 UK & Europe pressing
[+cd]

A band that I missed the boat in the first time around, but am glad I’m catching up with now.

On Cocteau Twins’ Simon Raymonde’s Bella Union label, Raymonde produced the band’s first two albums for the label.

Kind of a subdued and aching #indie #alternative folk music? Really well-written songs that could have come from any time, particularly the 60s or 70s, depending on whatever production approach you chose.

John Grant is an excellent songwriter, and this best of compilation is an excellent set of songs for a blustery Fall day.

Now, I need to listen to John Grant’s solo albums, which there are several, also on the Bella Union label. I really like his songwriting approach, and he’s got a very comforting voice.

AIR
Moon Safari
2023 Europe reissue

Well, since we did the JAZZ TRIO Air earlier in the week, I guess it’s time for the French electronic band Air.

Moon Safari was one of MANY albums I obsessed over in 1997. It was such a killer year for music. Grunge was dead, but rock was doing just fine; between OK Computer, Urban Hymns, Time Out Of Mind, Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space, and Dig Me Out just to name a few.

Moon Safari was the soundtrack to many a night of chemical-fueled ribaldry that year. I was 20 years old, partying hard, playing and going to tons of shows.
My life was the physical embodiment of “Sexy Boy”.

It’s impossible for me to hear Moon Safari now and not have some toxic flashback to that time; when I was running through brick walls and looking really good while doing it.

CLOSE LOBSTERS
Foxheads Stalk This Land
1987 Canada pressing

Essential late #80s #alternative #powerpop on this beautiful Fall Saturday morning.

I’m not quite sure what’s in the water out there in Scotland, but they’ve provided us with some killer bands over the years, of which Close Lobsters is another.

This record is impossibly good; great melodies, shimmering guitars, just outstanding songs.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard this record without starting it again as soon as it’s over.

Gems 💎 everywhere.
Highly recommend it.

Venetian Snares - Rossz Csillag Alatt Született

Rattle battle with pigeons Venetian Snares

This album really hit me with a ton of bricks when it first came out some 20year ago. Pure brilliance & a pairing that would make you think it was a restaurant

The fact the music is made in a tracker as well as other sources & has all these fantastic points in make it an album that can be taken apart & learnt from.
From dirty breakcore, to these symphonic jabs that makes this an album to experience & take in.
Great production & a sound that brings you back to listen again & again

Polygon Window - Surfing On Sine Waves [Expanded Edition]

Maybe my windows need cleaning

Oh me oh my, what an album & EP back in the early 90s, still fantastic today. From the ol’ Rephlex days to Warp.
There is that specific sound & production you can pick out Aphex Twin’s approach & what makes them one of the electronic gods

So nice to hear this again with everything collected up in this bulging package to scoff down like the dirty hoe bag I am for electronics & my appreciation in what is brought to the table & progression in music
