WEEK OF 080311 PLAYLIST: TONY SCOTT
Tony Scott: Music for Zen Meditation
The jazz musician's incredible clarinet album playing traditional Japanese music. I am in love with koto music, and much other traditional Japanese music, particularly the slow stuff. When I learnt about this album last week, from a guy who makes shakuhachi flutes out of PVC pipes, I was very upset that I hadn't heard of it before.
Here I list the "record of the week" (often a few records), which I listen to repeatedly all week long while I work, letting the music seep deep into my mind, and painting my activities with a color that I will forever remember whenever I later recall each piece. I also post other thoughts on music here too.

WEEK OF 080324 PLAYLIST: MONOPOLY CHILD STAR SEARCHERS // PACIFIC RAT TEMPLE BAND
Monopoly Child Star Searchers: Infant Spirituality Rates Coconut Percent
Pacific Rat Temple Band: Tan Kim (Boa Paradise)
These are both new solo projects from Spencer from the Skaters. It's indescribable. It's splendid. It is a new angle on the holy noise drone that the Skaters made their mark with. Everything Spencer touches is golden. This is rhythmic, a bit like some sort of southeast Asian cultural music. But it does indeed have a "temple band" feel to it. The two projects are slightly different, but more or less in the same direction away from the love drone syrup of the Skaters and Vodka Soap.
