More eaze - lacuna and parlor (Mondoj) + Prairiewolf return
The Slow Music Movement Blog
by
5M ago
lacuna and parlor by more eazemore eaze is an adventurous multi-instrumentalist and producer that does anything but take it easy. Her singular recordings encourage you to open your mind and ears and come along for the ride, as she either creates new genres or subverts anything from auto-tuned pop and ambient electronica to classic singer songwriting, often with the help of her friends, Claire Rousay being one. Luckily for the faint hearted there is a welcome accessibility to her experimental inc ..read more

David Cordero - Melodías Susurradas (Self Release)

I’ve got to get this off my chest as I’ve been mulling it over recently and I need answers. I’m fascinated by dark ambient. Not the music, I mostly struggle to listen to it and given a choice I don’t. It’s more that I wonder, what do people actually do whilst they’re listening to it? I mean it sounds like being in an industrial smelter in Mordor - a doomy, gloomy, heart of evil, let’s plunge the world into darkness sort of soundtrack. I can’t help think that if the police started ..read more

Albinos - Bamboo Night (WRWTFWW) + Nídia & Valentina - Estradas (Latency)

Pre-pandemic I used to regularly post a more uptempo release on a Friday, admittedly more for others than myself, as by then I’d usually be in front of a screen, in a restaurant, or at best in a local bar on the weekend. But during the pandemic, dance music, along with most of what I’d ever known, stopped making sense. Despite the depressing return of business as usual - peak capitalism, global conflict, the Anthropocene, post-truth murkiness and rampant populism, I still rarely get the urge ..read more

Quick Tips from The Slow Music Movement

I mentioned a few newsletters ago that due to my new childcare responsibilities and now an unwelcome but essential increase in my part time hours, I’m desperately struggling for time at the moment and will have to resort to more quick tips. Well that starts today.It’s a shame (discuss), as despite not being a confident writer, I’ve been enjoying the opportunity to waffle and express some personal opinions after years of social media reclusiveness, but as I haven’t posted a review in seve ..read more

The modern music landscape and attention span seem to be favouring singles over albums and to be honest I’m fine with it, especially when we have such an easy way to collect the cream of the crop, carefully sequence them and then reproduce them anywhere we want. No more cueing up the tracks from expensive LPs, EPs or CDs and messing about with tapes, minidiscs or CD recorders, just drag them into a playlist - now that’s progress. So for the last few years I’ve been squ ..read more

Charles.A.D - West Pontoon Bridge (100% Silk)

Ambient is starting to lose all meaning. The younger chill hop/lo-fi/study beats generation have been appropriating the term for SEO ends, and now a large proportion of under 25s think that ambient music has a lazy hip hop beat to it. Even Bandcamp’s ambient blog - who should know better, hasn’t helped matters with the present journalist following his own, rather than the genre’s interests for far too long, muddying the waters and generally doing the genuine ambient labels and artists on t ..read more

Michael Scott Dawson - The Tinnitus Chorus (We Are Busy Bodies)
The Slow Music Movement Blog
by
5M ago
Usually when I use the phrase, “dream team” in a recommendation, it refers to two, possible three of my favoured artists uniting on a project, although unfortunately it’s rare that the recordings actually deliver on their promise and inevitable hype.On his latest album, and unfortunately out of necessity due to the hearing issues alluded to in the album’s title, Dawson has sold all his possessions and gone full on communal living, enlisting no less than ten collaborators, seven of whom h ..read more

Of the Night Sky / Jean-Emmanuel Rosnet - coastal / à main levée (Handstitched)

As I look southwards out of my open window, across terracotta tiled roofs and the seasonably blue River Lima to the distant tree clad hills of the Minho coast, I can’t imagine a better soundtrack than the new split LP from Of the Night Sky & Jean-Emmanuel Rosnet. During the greyer winter months I’ll perhaps reach for something slightly more melancholic and introspective, but this morning’s blue skies and autumnal sun deserve something a touch brighter. It certainly helps that both arti ..read more

Inge Weatherhead Breistein- RustClick (Jazzland)Rust by Inge Weatherhead BreisteinThis great new single from Breistein - tipping us to his forthcoming LP, is another horizontal Norwegian jazz gem. His sax, real & processed, soars & shines over well crafted electronic gloom & subterranean echoes to fine juxtapositional effect. Find him in the Slow Jazz Playlist.Mikah - Headlines (Self Release)If autumn is setting in too early for your liking, tune into some lazy, hazy Balearic pop dre ..read more
