Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from July 1, 2021 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

"The musicians in Don Cherry’s New Researches, hailing from Brazil, Sweden, France, and the US, converged on Chateauvallon from all over Europe. The five-person band—Don and Moki Cherry, Christer Bothén, Gérard “Doudou” Gouirand, and Naná Vasconcelos— performed in an outdoor amphitheater and were joined onstage by a dozen adults and children, including Swedish friends who tagged along for the trip and Det Lilla Circus (The Little Circus), a Danish puppet troupe based in Christiania, Copenhagen. The platform was lined with Moki’s carpets and her handmade, brightly colored tapestries, depicting Indian scales and bearing the words Organic Music Theatre, dressed the stage. As the musicians played, members of Det Lilla, led by Annie Hedvard, danced, sang, and mounted an improvised puppet show on poles high up in the air."

Thank you, as always, for great music. Don Cherry piece reminded me of the 1973 Warsaw Jazz Jamboree festival and the Don Cherry's concert there with his family, a bunch of Swedish musicians and a French sax player... quite an experience: part concert, part theater, part art show.

I thought I just got a couple of silence drops, and that bit of James Brown confirms some issue, unless that Hassell is some wack remix.

Flash @940 that's how that album is. muffled. self-recorded, lo-fi, with tape overdubs and bouncing. first time i heard Eno was that album. i was tripping and the sound was perfect , like i was inside of a box or something!
copies that don't sound like that have been remastered i guess.

I hear that still b/p, I used to always listen to both sides of the Warm Jets Eno album. It seemed such a set piece.

Thank you Evan!
