Hail! \m/
Prince -20Ten. Love it! Another artist that's gone to revisit some of the sonics of their past to good-time effect. Drum machines and skinny-tie synths that recall the Dirty Mind/1999 era and some of the fonkiest stuff he's done in a while. Stripped back, old skool purpleisms abound. (On the 'secret' track he even describes himself as a 'purple Yoda'! Ha!) The most fun Prince album in ages.
Prince - 3121. A superior Prince album of the recent years. Some lush arrangements hallmarking his 'jazz' period.
Eagles of Death Metal - Heart On! Non-essential but fun sleaze-rock n roll.
Velvet Revolver - Contraband. Good, solid heavy rock n roll. Slash is one of those dudes with a classic sound that handles the 'new' with aplomb.
Edgar Froese - Aqua. Nice ambi-bubblings
Worm Orobouros - S/T Loving this metal tinged folky-ambi atmos heavy tunage
Robyn - Body Talk pt 1. Scando pop pixie lushment.
Stefan Grappelli & Django Reinhardt - At the Hot Club, Paris (2 cd). Utterly joyous stuff.
Heaven & Hell - The Devil You Know. Tony Iommi always comes over in interviews as a quietly spoken, man-of-few-words type and I've sussed out why. It's cos most of his brain is given over to concentrate on being an awesome, riff-generator. I mean, it's amazing really.
Aliens - Astronomy for Dogs. Splendid!
Rush - Signals. I do love this old thing.
Plus a lot of the stuff from last weeks list
Have a nice week sound slurpers! x
