Head Visions


I had planned to post this ambient beauty by Bernd Kistenmacher, but you can officially buy it HERE and that's what I'd do if I didn't already spend way more pesos on my vinyl copy. Check out Mr. Kistenmacher's blog HERE and a lot of great live performances on YOUTUBE. Listen to "Dreamdance " from this here LP and a lot more beautiful Elektronische Musik on his myspace.
Cheers, Basso

No download link here. People who fuck enthusiastic independent labels will go to digital hell ...

The Band Of The World - Equatorial Planes (2011)



On my quest for Silver Seeds and Poison Gold i crossed the Sauce Cosmos just recently.
What a ride! I've been attacked by Jungle Jacks trying to Lengthen
my Shadows with Real Mirrors. ALready saw myself in an Air Burial
but survived by riding away on Race Worms MkII. We were riding through Waves of DNA until finally we landed on Soap Island to rest and spin some of our favourite Discs.
.
.
.
.
The Band of the World is Josh Rachenbach and Lisa Pace. They are a cube field electronic band from Los Angeles. BIG thanks to Josh for sending the link to the equatorial plane trip!

dedicated to my friends in Japan



I'd rather turn off the computer and use candles at night than keep getting electricity from nuclear power plants. Get your candles too and listen.

the joy of cooking #7 is availaible for download (just register...) and streams over at http://www.deepfrequency.com/ now - here.
Must admit it's a little sweeter than the last shows as it was supposed to be one of the soundtracks to my holidays in the sun that are now officially over. it was nice listening to it and watching the seagulls play in the sky...... enjoying the scent of grilled tuna with avocado sauce and canarian wrinkly potatoes.
Playlist follows. Cheers!

Hermeneutic ambiance



I'm not going to loose many words on this. It's ambient, it's funny and experimental and a grower and I really really dig it. Nothing for the jazzheads probably, but if you're into obscure electronic music you'll have fun! Lots...
Cheers, Basso


Not doing a little blog-research before posting is stoopid.
This lovely LP has been posted before on Just Another Garden
and Synopsis Electronica. Both of these blogs are fantastic!

Musik Szene Saar





A rhyme on prächtiges Haar - Musik Szene Saar
Ambi & Arno sing "For You" (see tracklist below) and they're damn right. Now here's one for you. Hailing from from the small german federal state called Saarland, named after the river Saar, this compilation offers folky vibes, krautrock, teutonic elektronik, obscure funk and heavy rock!
Well worth a few spins .... get all the details here and snatch your link in the comments as soon as it appears there. Cheers!

Trans-Sentient Android Music



Here we have a soundtrack for an epic space fantasy. This is the story of Merak, a trans-sentient android (android with a soul) sent on a mission to the core of the universe to investigate an attack on the Universal Mind. Merak was released in 1988 on Wagner's private Music Suite label.

Beam me up, Proxyon . . .



Ready for some more Nether cosmic sounds? Maybe? Ok, give this one a try. Late breaking synthpop/cosmic disco from the Netherlands. The Van Eijk brothers punched out this set of space themed synthy dance tracks in 1989. If you're fond of Future World Orchestra, Peru, or Space Art you will probably feel right at home with Proxyon.

Have a go . . ?

the joy of cooking #6




























tonite at 22.00 CET - 9 grenwich time. #6 will be on air.
Expect less 80s sound and a little more jazz this time.
Links for download and streams will be up as soon as the show's archived.
Cheers, Basso!

in the archives now. ready for your downloads and streams


Now here's the tracklist for february's joy of cooking.
AGAIN it took me some time to pull them out,
but finally a little cold helped me.


Propeller Island - Hanne's Jingle
comes from a fantastic LP! Humorous and intelligent Kraut Electronics
Stephen Schlaks – Gorgeous you’re right
love it love it love it love it
Mario Paech - Palma De Mallorca
comes from a wonderful compilation from the late 80s. Copies
Rob – Never Enough
Rob's 2nd longplayer is a true winner "sounds best when: you heard it 30 times"
Sunrise Orchestra – Un Dia Ta Bini
When you dig a little deeper in here (blog) youll find a longplayer by these guys. The track here comes from their first that arrived here just last week.
Shivananda – Calor
Swiss Jazzrock. Erste Sahne!
Sanlucar – Caballo Negro
Manolo Sanlucar has quite some LPs out. I think this is from his first called Sanlucar. Basso has a soft spot for funky flamenco .....
Manzanitas (Edit)
Yes he does!
Riccardo Zappa - Chatka
I'm a true fan of Riccardo Zappa. This is from his first and features Tullio De Piscopo on drums and Tempera on synthsDiscogs just told me the bassman also played on the Wild Magnolias records!! If you like it check out Riccardo's 80s LPs. Just as nice plus adding a bit of New Age and Balearica.
Joaquim Habana – I Love Berlin
mmmhhh... the guy's on fire. The track is coming from an obscure mid 80s soundtrack and it's so nice that everything changed over the years and nothing really changed....
Der Grüne Engel - Radioaktivität
haha! what devil made me do it? Playing this track might have been on step too deep into Pandora's box of obscure little ditties, but now it's here and it's an interesting one. Privately pressed on 7" only this insane ANTI ATOMKRAFT (Anti Nuclear Power) Song from the early 80s wonders me any time I hear it. Using Kraftwerk like vocal-hooks sung by children over a bassline strongly "inspired" by Key West's "Shake Together", the flipside of "Wanna Groove" - WTF
Alberto Cheri - Io non so se (Edit)
Anch'iobut I know this is from his "Cavalli Alati" album
Dsh! Dsh! - Космос (Edit)
Came across these guys because D-Pulse remixed one of their tunes. the track is stretched a tiny bit. it came from CD anyway ; )

Jupiter Tunig Center - Doveshit
Big thanks to Frank for this track. Check out his tracks on Soundcloud.
There's a LOT of good stuff!!


John Stewart – Blonde Stars (Edit)
I love this track and edited it a bit, so pleasure time lasts a little longer
Loredana - Io resto senza il basso (Edit)
same here
Dudley Perkins - Falling
I promise I'll never use a shitty mp3 burned to CD for a mix again. I couldn't find the damn record and WANTED it. Next time I'll kill my darling!
Funky Jojo Band - ??
Private Pressed Hamburg Jazz Funk from the early 80s . Totally my hobby-horse.... No info nowhere
Lindwurm – Streichgeigenhansel
another private one. the whole record is damn great. I think there's a rip at Mutant Sounds?
Ambi & Arno – For You
I found some copies of a "private" compilation called "Musik Szene Saar" ditributed by Bellaphon about 2 years ago and there's really a couple of great tunes on it. Various styles.... I heard it is now pretty hyped and of course damn expensive because of the ONE electronic track. Maybe this is one for thegrowingbin! Anyway Ambi & Arno have two tracks on the comp and "For You" is the one!
New Trace Quartet – Downtown (Edit)
try and find this! let me know if you found something. I'm damn curious. Only have the one track on a early 80s comp sponsored by the ministry of cultural something and I'd love to hear more
Broadcast – Message From Home
Rest in peace!
Affinity – United States Of Mind
this is the closing track, cheers!

Electronic Butterflies




Dan Lacksman is a funny guy. You knew that before but anyway here's a bit of the proof.
If you take the time to listen all the way through the happy, silly, moogy popcorn tunes from A1 to the lovely B1 called Lullaby, B2 will hit you like a etheral meteorite and push you deep into your seat. Almost 13 minutes of Skylab might work like a drug. So please do me a favour and don't skip ; )
Cheers, Basso

Thanks Jamie for the picture and thanks Andrew for making me aware of it's existance!

Software Sunrise






Here we have Brüning von Alten's Sunrise Orchestra with the "Malata Suite" LP. No year indicated on cover or label, but from the cat# I'm guessing this would have been released in 1984 or 1985 on Software. Software Music seems to be a guarantee for good music. I don't know a single bad record from this label (must admit I never heard this one). There's an ealier release buy these guys that I don't know yet but I hope to obtain it soon....
The album starts off with 10 minutes of some fine afro cuban jazz. Lots of percussions of course, beautiful piano and some real nice horns too. A2 is all about percussion. Voodoo! Side B kicks off with african fusion in "Latsemanja". I'm unsure about the chanting but hey, the guys obviously had fun.....you'll also find some relaxed moments on side 2. In one case (B2 "Lady U." with some great guitar shreds ; ) it's awesome - in fact my fave on this LP. The other one is kind of - ahhemm - okay (B3 "For Christina" - stewardess on the Love Boat, I guess). I have thought about leaving it out, but I have done that before and got rewarded with comments on the missing track only. Bloody completists!! For the closing track we return to the heart of africa with the "Kalabash Song". Everybody bring your calabash.....
Cheers!


Floating





As a follow up to Cesare's post here's more of the fantastic Monika Linges and her quartet. All killer, no filler and in my humble opinion nothing less than Kitty and Raffaela - even prices for og copies are affordable compared to the expensive ladies just mentioned. Cheers!

Buy....

Orbital Star





Not without a good portion of melancholy I am posting this wonderful & romantically rare album. Just recently friend of the bin Jamie tried to contact Li Garattoni after finding this LP and had to find out she had already passed away in 2004 - far too early. When he told me I had to think of one track from this LP - "Orbital Star". It might be a nice thing to think of Li Garattoni as a star orbiting around earth now. I hardly know anything about her (well, her sign was Taurus), but her lyrics and music touched me and when I listen to it she's still here......

buy it, buy it, buy it


Please be so kind and save me from further reup requests. you can buy most of the tunes officially and the money goes to her family.....
