Sorry I missed you here the other day.
Ariel-Pinkesque-Hypna-Psych-Jazz-Rock? You don't say! I am interested in hearing how that turns out. Remember always add more bassoons.

Been wrestling with a very challenging and frustrating task at work for weeks now, I just can’t seem to cook the numbers in a way that our director is comfortable with.

Oregon | Distant Hills

Prior to that, and relaxing in a different way, was:

The Dead C | Harsh 70s Reality

Usually I bring a laptop in here to keep working but right now I need to clear my head.

Ahh gotta love the zen breaks one often has to pull in order to cook up the right result. I've got my falr share of those as well although they tend to revolve around messages to mad parents who feel their autist kid is the next David Helfgott because they once saw the flick and kinda like pianos.
Oregon is pure zen.

I'll let myself throw in that I'm really excited, as I will get to see both John Maus and Ariel Pink at a festival in less than a month. Smile
Maus and Pink are summer music, yeeaaa! As a side note, just around a
few days ago I started playing with this really cool Ariel Pink-esque
hypna-psych-jazz-rock group.

No problem Samuel. I was about to pop on Headhunters but then decided to go for the lesser known brother in Thrust. Same kind of funk drive although not quite at the same level as HH. Funny thing about the Headhunters band is that Herbie actually came from the Mwandishi group with an all Afro-American band....and then cam back with a white drummer and wound up sounding far more earthy and funky.

Yesterday evening and this morning:
Samuel Cadima - Cascata (man I need a tapedeck!!!!)
Oren Ambarchi - Hubris
I really like the closer with that Jungle beat.

It's pretty hard to be on the same level as HH. Have you heard the albums of the band without Herbie? They're really cool too. Who said white dudes can't Funk? LOL

Hmm, I should give my copy another spin.

Btw

This afternoon has been very samey in that I've listened to Hosianna Mantra 2,5 times now (the ol Cowon repeat trick I did with Pom Pom yesterday) trying to melt even further down the sofa after an extremely hardcore episode at my kiropractor. Crack it said!...and I felt better instantly. Come home and spend about 5 seconds on the sofa my body started to make these mad sounds a la old wooden ships creaking and croaking. It's a (strange) hoot and very sailor-like.

Yes! Now I remember them. 'Always' was a big hit here. Not sure who I was thinking of tbh.
I had no idea it was Vince Clark behind the synths. Neato info
Not really my style nowadays but I seem to remember digging a couple of their tunes when I was a small boy but hated 'Always' with a vengeance when it came out. Then again I was 12 and all about Floyd, Maiden, Queen, Metallica, Jimi and Black Sabbath.

I doubt that. It’s Vince Clarke (Depeche Mode, Yaz) providing electro-dance music sung by a melodramatic diva-sort of gentleman. I didn’t know any of the songs but apparently several of them were enormously popular in dance clubs in the late-80s/90s (and beyond, perhaps, I haven’t researched and I sure as sh*t never went to dance clubs. Not my style). But the concert was enjoyable. And the opening band was kinda lovably goofy in an Ariel kind of way (there’s that name again. Everything’s all about Ariel).

Hey, now there’s one that needs a fresh spin. I think I reviewed it back in the 90s with a rave review but it’s been years since I played it.

Not tonight though, the wife and I are going to see Erasure (whom I barely know, but hey, I got into OMD just a couple of years ago thanks to a concert). Tomorrow night, btw, I’m in Ariel Pink mode, going to our Rare Goat studio to record a solo version of “Butt-House Blondies” for inclusion on a grassroots tribute album.

It was basically years since I last span it and it was such a great listen.
Heartily recommended for an eerie afternoon or in that special blue hour just before dusk.
