Glad you like Proxima - I thought it might be up your street!

Me...

Gnod Drop Out With White Hills
Bloody great, a real classic. great to have a worthy double album. Shame side 3 jumps mind.

Astra - the Weirding
Mellotrontastic. For some reason I needed a bit of overblown prog this week, and this was just the ticket.

Thomas Koner - Nunatak
Absolutely beautiful. Apparently recorded on prepared gongs (some underwater) and hand-made woodwind. True glacial beauty.

In the sun...
Augustus Pablo - Original Rockers
The Byrds - Mr Tambourine Man
Jefferson Airplane - After Bathing at Baxter's

Flying Lotus - Cosmogramma
Not normally my cuppa this sort of thing, but this is really very good. Bonkers collage of stuff, including (if my ears serve) camera shutters and ping pong used as beat samples. Some gorgeous bass, synth and harp sounds too.

Demdike Stare - Forest of Evil
Get a copy of this before it goes out of print. Seriously, it is brilliant. Not quite sure how to describe it really, but when the big tom beat comes in on side two it makes me stomp around the room.

Gas - Nah und Fern
Weird ambient string techno. Cheapish 4 CD box. Sounds better on headphones, certainly on my first couple of listens. Takes a while to get into the detail, but is improving with more listens.

Hawkwind - In Search of Space
In celebration of getting an In Search of Space T shirt off ebay. YEAH!
