The #1001albums project threw "Chicago Transit Authority" (1969) at me today.
I'm flabbergasted!
Why did I think #Chigago is a "AOR soft rock" band, I'm seriously asking how and why was I making this assumption?
This album "grooves like a horny moose" (which is my take on a finnish saying). I'm thinking I have to go thought their latter albums, I hear they kinda changed in to 80's, so maybe stop there.
Hello, I'm Holland. New to Mastodon.
I'm a composer/pianist who writes fantasy-inspired orchestral and piano music. I share my songs on YouTube and release albums every now and then on streaming platforms.
Sometimes, I share scores in the form of videos on my YouTube channel so you can follow along with the music if you enjoy that sort of thing.
I'm currently writing the soundtrack for a video game and would like to eventually move into the world of animated film scoring (I love animation!).
I'll keep this post short and share one of my songs below.
I hope that you enjoy listening to my music, and that it carries you away to far-off worlds.
Thank you :)

I really wish I could find some deeply sampled string machines in SFZ, SF2, EXS24 or WAV format.
Loomer went out of business. They had a Solina clone plugin for Linux. It was always on my purchase list, and now I can't buy it.
Has anyone captured multisamples of every key of a Solina, Logan, Elka, Eminent, ARP or Opus3, VP-330 --or anything similar?

Some of the best conversations at #NAMM happen when you're not looking for them. I noticed a shirt that said "I Support #Musicians" and couldn't help but start talking to Michelle Wolff from the Guitar Center Music Foundation.
What followed was a conversation about #music programs being the first to get cut from school budgets. About 150 grant requests every quarter and only 30 getting fulfilled. About kids who might never discover they were meant to play an instrument. About veterans who could find healing through sound but won't get the chance. And about Michelle's own journey—an #opera major whose voice was taken from her by vocal nodules, who had to rebuild her identity, and who never stopped being a musician.
Give it a listen.
P.S. Sean Martin, CISSP and I recently met with Myka Miller, MM, MBA, Executive Director of the Guitar Center Music Foundation. We have some exciting plans to support their work. More soon.

LAURIE ANDERSON
O Superman
1981 U.S. 7” single @ 33rpm
One of the most inventive, unlikely, baffling, and MOVING “hit” singles of all time.
Just two alternating chords using an Eventide Harmonizer and a Roland VP-330 vocoder, the song was broken and championed by the great John Peel on BBC RADIO 1.
Lyrically, it’s mind bending, and many people, including Anderson herself, has said it’s about many things.
I’m not particularly interested in any of that. Just that when I hear it (still to this day), it strikes such an inexplicable emotional nerve in me that I can’t explain.
It’s a remarkable piece of art.
Perhaps Anderson summed it up best.
“Technology cannot save you.”

Party All The Time
1985 Canada 7” single
SO.
MUCH.
COCAINE.
Rick James is a hell of a drug.
Simultaneously the height of #80s absurdity and excess AND the greatest artistic statement of the decade.
I don’t understand how ANYBODY could hear “Party All The Time” and still think that cocaine is BAD for you. Like… what are you even talking about?

I guess if one has to have a sore throat and temperature, right after the first rehearsal of a new concert project is pretty good timing. :P Glad I didn't miss the rehearsal because this is a pretty difficult program.
Works by Caroline Shaw, Roxanna Panufnik, Lili Boulanger and Chiara Margarita Cozzolani. I get to sing in the solo ensemble in the last one, just a few short bits but exiting even so!
Had to cancel all my students today and spend the day on the sofa, but at least I can listen to the new pieces and get a start on learning them.

I think SSGB is really going to have to integrate social media posting, because frankly I don't feel like uploading things manually.
Enjoying the new album from GUV, "Warmer than Gold". Saw a review in Pitchfork that pitched it as "Madchester"-esque. Very much of that feel: jangly, sunny.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Surprise Your Pig (A Tribute To R.E.M.)
BONUS 7” single
Yellow vinyl
I saw this in the record store today; a plain white 45 sleeve with JAWBREAKER written on it in blue marker, and a yellow colored record inside.
Turns out, this was a bonus 7” single that was included in a R.E.M. tribute record called Surprise Your Pig.
I had never heard of that record. It had Gumball, Vic Chesnutt, Jawbox, King Missile, and a bevy of other cool bands who love R.E.M..
Seeing JAWBREAKER on the sleeve was really all I needed to buy this (one of my favorite bands ever), and their version is a totally rad “Jawbreakered” version of “Pretty Persuasion”.
Also on the single are takes by Steel Pole Bath Tub (“We Walk)” and The Punchline (“Bandwagon”).
Pretty cool versions by all three, but the Jawbreaker track made me very happy.
Jawbreaker fucking rule.
#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #1990s #90s #90smusic #rem #jawbreaker
PINK FLOYD
One Of These Days b/w Fearless
1971 U.S. 7” PROMO MONO single
This is a bit of an odd duck.
If I knew what it ACTUALLY was, I probably wouldn’t have bought it, but it’s an interesting curiosity regardless.
“Fearless” is my favorite Pink Floyd song. Ever.
Here, it is the b-side.
So clearly, I was siked to grab this promotional MONO single.
Here’s the problem:
BOTH of these songs are edited versions of their original Meddle versions. But it’s the WAY “Fearless” is edited that is bothersome.
The whole second verse (“Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd…) is MISSING. Completely taken out.
Baffling enough. But what’s MORE confusing is that they left the chant IN at the end.
WTF?!?!
Why not cut THAT out and leave the song alone how it is?!?! I don’t get it.
Like I said… a bit odd.
Curious enough to hold onto for now, I guess, but I won’t be listening to this much.
#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #pinkfloyd
RICH KIDS
Rich Kids b/w Empty Words
1978 UK 7” single
After former Sex Pistol Glen Matlock was kicked out of the band (for reportedly saying he liked The Beatles), he went on to form RICH KIDS with future Visage and Ultravox member Midge Ure.
They didn’t last long.
One album.
That album had THIS song on it, a high octane and catchy burner.
The b-side, “Empty Words” (not on the album), is also catchy in its own right, but the A-side is a LOT of fun, and makes this single worth having.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a copy of their lone album, Ghosts Of Princes In Towers. Would like to hear it at some point.

free software recco RE: 2 ppl remote jam?
just mic'd acoustic instruments
not too worried about latency
something which doesn't actively cancel out "non-voice" sounds.
needs to support Mac + Linux
bonus points: open source
if there is something which is more optimized for real-time, has other good features (but is still free and preferably open source) that would also be interesting. UDP, perhaps it supports 'n' players...
if you've used Skype or Zoom or other similar tools with reasonable success, that would also be useful information!

1999 U.S. 7” single
THIS is a hell of a gem 💎.
When I was in my local shop today, and came across this and noticed that all three songs were superhero & comic book themed, my interest was peaked enough to throw it on the shop’s table to sample it.
I got 10 seconds into the first song on side A, and stopped.
I immediately knew it was for me, and was going to take it home regardless.
These three songs are SUPER catchy, super infectious and charming lo-fi #indie rock & pop.

PAPER FACES
Riding A Bomb
1981 U.S. 7” single
First spin from today’s found dozen eggs.
THIS is actually a single I already owned, but since this one was in far better shape than the one I had, I grabbed it for an upgrade.
I was actually very surprised to find ANOTHER one of these, because it’s not exactly common.
This is great, early #80s synthy & #minimal sounding #newwave #postpunk music.
This 5-piece band from Kenmore, NY’s entire recorded output consisted of THIS 7” single and one 3-song 12”.
On THIS single, the songs are propulsive, and have GREAT lyrics.
Music very much of it’s time production-wise, but very cool nonetheless.
Very happy to score a much cleaner copy of this.

PORCELAIN BUS
Talking To God
1988 Australia pressing
This is a fun one.
More music from Australia, but very different than the NO album I posted a few hours ago.
Porcelain Bus were more of a jangly, alternative band with flashes of early R.E.M., and some of the more scrappy #80s indie stuff.
Pretty fun songs here with really nice, punchy production to drive them home. The guitar playing on this album is particularly rad.
Two official albums over four years. They didn’t last long, but gave the world some killer rock music in such short time.

NO
No
1988 Australia pressing
A very weird, dark, 4-song #artrock record that I found in a dollar bin.
This record has the most interesting cover of Jimi Hendrix’s “Are You Experienced?” on it.
It’s as if Ministry or My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult had 40 beers and decided to take a stab at it.
It, along with the other three songs, are propulsive, pounding and industrial sounding.
If there’s any of my followers that hail from (or live in) Australia that have any further information on this bat-shit weird band, I’d appreciate the info.
Until then, I’ll keep being baffled by THIS then.

SUFJAN STEVENS
Illinois
2006 U.S. 2xLP reissue
Been a long time since I’ve sat down and listened to Illinois from start to finish.
I posted the B-sides and rarities companion album The Avalanche, at it drove me to come back to this again.
This album was one of a handful that was a great source of comfort to my wife and I in 2007. We had moved into our very first apartment together in Woonsocket, R.I., and toiled in that joint for a year before hitting the road and moving to Van Isle.
Over that year, we listened to Illinois, Boxer by The National, Pete Yorn’s Nightcrawler, and a few other things on a loop.
We made that place our own, and we still remember that time (and the music we listened to) fondly.
We were so young, and had no idea what was in store for us down the road.
Sufjan will always remind us of that time. We love this album dearly.

KURTIS BLOW
Kurtis Blow
1980 Canada pressing
A funky #HipHop classic on a Sunday afternoon!
“The Breaks” was a pivotal song for the history of the genre.
Blow was the FIRST rapper to sign with a major label, and the first COMMERCIALLY viable hip-hop figure.
THAT song was also the FIRST gold record for the genre.
A HALF A MILLION COPIES is insane for a rap single in 1980.
The industry was still afraid of that shit, and Blow blew the doors down for a lot of rappers, and had a lot to do with legitimizing rap and hip-hop as a viable industry and business model.
Kurtis Blow.
A man of many firsts.

ASTRUD GILBERTO
Now
1972 Canada pressing
Some Latin flavour for last spin of the night.
Best known for “Girl From Ipanema”, there’s some great songs on this record, which was a few years further down the road from that massive song.
“Take It Easy My Brother Charlie” is a great song, which is one of the four tunes on here that Gilberto herself wrote.
A beautiful voice to end my day with.

Minusta tuntuu, että Michael Jacksonin Earth Song on yhtä ajankohtainen nyt, kuin silloin kun se julkaistiin. Välissä on yli 30 vuotta.

Oh man!
I had no idea that they reissued this!
So happy I was able to snag one before they vanished, as there’s only 1000 of them, apparently.
GVSB are one of the great unheralded bands of the #90s . I was able to see them play live TWICE back in the day, and they were incredible. There wasn’t a single album of theirs that I didn’t love.
This was their third album, and their second for Touch And Go, a label I absolutely consumed and lived on back then. This has the magnificent “Kill The Sex Player” on it, a song that also appeared on the soundtrack to Kevin Smith’s CLERKS.
For me, this band’s secret weapon was always their awesome rhythm section.
GREAT drummer (Alexis Fleisig) & bass player (Johnny Temple).

Basement recording session tonight. Working on a new jam kinda retro rock thing. Two chords, 4 bass notes. Very simple repetitive structure. Got the single rhythm guitar and bass tracks finished. Probably vocals next. Nice to do a basic improvisational on the fly jam thing. Unpredictable outcome, but it feels good. #music

Apashe & Alina Pash - Kyiv
"This project was filmed in #Ukraine during the war. The choir was recorded on a calm day, between nights of air raids and shelling. As I’m writing this, Kyiv is in a blackout."
Choir conceet today went pretty well. Despite the absolutely terrible choir score we had for one piece, that didn't mark the time signatures of measures in the places where the choir has a rest, so we had no idea how long those rests were! I suppose the publisher thought choir singers can't count anyway and rely on the conductor for any entrance. Boo. Plus: odd choices of cue notes, and unreadably small time signatures, just to make everything more fun to read.
Music by Helmut Barbe (Unknown to me composer but a very beautiful and cool piece), Vincente Lusitano (renaissance composer who should be more well known because gorgeous music!) and Alexander Gretchaninov (Russian composer, which caused some discussion among the choir beforehand).
Extra fun was that my husband was playing celesta in the Barbe , it's nice when we have a gig together. :)
Beaming to you, live now!
This week: A meditative first hour, celebrating new age synths, galician bagpipes and hollow bearing trees. Followed by a blues set with less than five minutes of American music.

Two hours of #ambient and #experimental, #music or #sound on #EdgeRadio993FM for you to sleep into.
Paid for pro Musicolet features, that's how much I love that app. I rarely pay for pro features for anything, so when I do, it means I'm really using the hell out of the service. It was only $15 for lifetime access- a deal they have going on right now. So if you like Musicolet and want pro features, that's a crazy good deal. Had to jump.
I was belting out some All About Eve on the car stereo yesterday, and I now find myself completely earwormed by Different Sky
As break-up songs go, it's got a really positive vibe and is a great tune
(Let's just not talk about the 50-something bloke singing Wild Hearted Woman at the top of his voice while stuck in traffic in his sensible Audi 😆)

Starting the day with a bit of KLF (Justified Ancients of Mu Mu), including "Doctorin' the Tardis". The video is mostly a Blues Brothers-era cop car being chased by what I'm guessing (I've never watched Dr. Who but other photos of them look less rudimentary) is a homemade Tardis, and involves lots of rural English scenery, "you wot"s, and doing donuts on a disused industrial estate.
