Another three weeks passes...
Loop – Sonancy. Yes, a new album is coming from Robert “I’m definitely not a Hawkwind fan” Hampson, and while it’s never going to be as good as the first three, it’s still pretty cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrViQDlYxdE
Michael Rother & Vittoria Maccabruni – As Long As The Light. New album from Rother and his partner is surprisingly really great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQM8aOsBXWo
Black Country, New Road – Ants From Up There. Hmmm, a group I find easier to admire than really enjoy as such, but still, young people, well done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqy6WPSfZSA
A Formal Horse – Meat Mallet. Heavy avant/pop prog, an interesting combination: https://aformalhorse.bandcamp.com/album/meat-mallet
Pneumatic Tubes – A Letter from TreeTops. A solo album from the keyboardist in Midlake would usually have me, err, clicking on something else, but it’s on Ghost Box and does indeed sound like an Americana version of kosmische… https://soundcloud.com/ghost-box/alftt-montage
Ignacio Simon – Old Friends. Bloke from obscure but good neo classical post-rock Spanish types Northwest. Guy’s a talent, Talk Talk/Hollis fans will very much want to hear this: https://ignaciosimon.bandcamp.com/album/old-friends
Spaceship – Ravines. Drones plus field recordings, still going strong: https://wiaiwya.bandcamp.com/album/ravines
The British Stereo Collective – Mystery Fields
The Soundcarriers – Wilds
Hawkwind – Dust Of Time
Gong – Live At The Gong Family Unconventional Gathering. I’ve never been a massive Gong fan, but the DVD of the ‘classic’ line-up’s final show from 2006 is really rather good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM7AvfpWlyU
