sorry to be that guy, but here is my latest album. i recorded this live at various locations here in seattle throughout last year & some of this one. lo-fi ambient synth rubs shoulders with field recordings. if yr interested, i'm going to start posting more of my work here.

& before i totally destroy any shred of respectability i have by posting all of my work here, this will be my last one. chopped & screwed loops of experimental library, funk, soundtrack, & jazz loops. heavily inspired by robert turman, croiners, & the my dream date with boyd rice tape comp. this got released by the lovely scott over at ailanthus. support them here. thanks for putting up with this, i promise i have a few more awesome posts for the next couple of days.

This one's for those who never thought in Shakuhachi music as avant. Unlike Michihiro Sato, though, Sabu Orimo never had -- as far as I know -- a NY buddy to arrange him gigs and all-star collabs. His recordings are more like intense meditation sessions in a dark room, along with the occasional fits of demonic expurgation (you'll know it).

cosmic surfin'.

just had to share this gem of a jam. haruomi hosono, shigeru suzuki & tatsuro yamashita go hard on this one. lounge-y exotica-esque ocean jams made for that one time when thurston howell ran the casino. download this for the version of cosmic surfin' that predates yellow magic orchestra.

basil kirchin's soundtrack to the abominable dr. phibes won't be confused with particles, but is still a pleasant listen.
