Evening listening. MV & EE's 'Livestock Moon Forms'. There are maybe two or three bands whose records I often put on in the evening if I need something to zone out to, something that can take me out of my tendency towards neurotic overthinking. MV & EE are one of those bands. Pure rural cosmic joy.

Starting the day with this new Natural Information Society & Bitchin Bajas LP. The other one they made 10 years ago is possibly one of my favorite records from the last 10 years, but this new one is great too and different.

Still rather deeply immersed in Zappa zones. These recordings are from the time just after Hot Rats was recorded. Extremely jammy and guitar solo oriented stuff with lots of bluesy and melodic wah-excursions as only FZ could play them.

I often experience a division in my perception of music between an inner drive/feel & an outer/objective understanding. Like they are in conflict & that I should surrender to one. Here is a product of the inner drive, released almost exactly 2 years ago: auralcanyonmusic.bandcamp.com/album/l-i-v-...

Evening listening. More live Zappa. This time with his 1973-1974 band. Unreal playing by everyone and killer majestic guitar solos by Zappa himself.

Tomorrow is May 1. If you don't already recognize it as one of the most important days of the year, please consider your priveligies and why you are following me on social media. If you don't see that the foundation of all problems in society are rooted in questions of class, well... please learn.

Been thinking a lot about Zappa lately. I don't think I'm a diehard Zappa-head, but he is an important part of my music discovery history and he is actually one of the rather few guitar players who's solo playing I've been listening closely to in different periods of my life

Evening listening. Charalambides' "Our Bed Is Green". The internet tells me that this album originally came out in 1993 and then it was reissued in April twenty years ago. Always worth listening to, the band and the album. Just timeless music.

Sunday noodling

Starting the day with Brian Eno's Neroli. As ambient as it gets. Probably not my favorite Eno, but it works really well as a soundtrack for a slow Sunday morning.

I'm wondering if this is anyone's favorite Frank Zappa album? Not my favorite, but I'm glad it exists. Zappa said this about the album: "Things in America can be from hell. Right now we have a president from hell, and a National Security Council from hell, so we should add Jazz from Hell also."

One thing that continues to baffle me in the context of playing/creating/performing and listening to (your own) music is the gap between being in the role being someone playing an instrument and being in the role of the listener listening to a recording of what you have played.

Another favorite from this year. Joshua Burkett & Lau Nau: ~. I have already pre-ordered the CD version that comes out the great Akti Records soon, but then I stumbled upon the vinyl version for a reduced price and I simply couldn't resist buying it.

Time for some No-Neck Blues Band. Although I got quite a few of their records, I must admit that I don't listen to them everyday, but sometimes I really crave it though, and when that happens it's like the only thing I really wanna listen to.

Rafael Toral's 'Spectral Evolution' was one of the more remarkable albums that came out last year. This recently released live version of the album is, besides being extremely well-performed, a great way to reconnect with and expanded version of the music on the original album.

Evening listening.A Gong-era I'm not so familiar with. Kind of weird & loose,spacey,silly...out there. Not all of it is my cup of tea. But here are some great moments too.One of those bands I've would have love to have seen late at night at some hippie festival had I been born some decades earlier.

About 99% of all these short guitar pieces are made in under 10 minutes with the only seemingly conscious logic - that I don't question or overthink whatever spontaneously pops up, be it mood, chords or melodies.

Why haven't anyone told me about this late-1980s incarnation of Pierre Moerlen's Gong before!? Sounds like a complex fusion version of Göttsching played on vibraphone and with a band instead of synth+guitar. Killer stuff : youtu.be/QsX89yQcT_M?...

I don't think you can ever get enough of the early to mid 1990s Seefeel. Somehow very much of their time, but at the same time their music is completely timeless. I was thinking about buying the vinyl version, but it was pricey & the CD-format seems perfectly suited for this kind of music anyway.

I'm slowly getting to know this new release by Michael Grigoni & Pan American. Two masters of musical landscaping in the fields of ambient Americana or what you wanna call it. The music on this album stand out as something that is done with effortlessly mastery, obvious maturity & deep integrity.

I've been so tired all week after last week's concerts, I've even been tired of listening to my own playing & music. But then it's great that you can listen to someone else's music & playing instead. So here I am listening to this stellar album called 'The Suzanne Langille Songbook'. So so good.

Just finished playing third concert this week. This evening: Improvised space rock in the context of the great Øresund Space Collective celebrating their 20th anniversary. Played in the first set & can't remember much of what we played, but people said the band sounded really good. So that's cool.
