Niama Makalou - aggressive Malian disco


Ach! Mann!
Daphni/Caribou did a remix of this but it's deep and beautifully-produced enough as is. What fucking 80s Malian genius decided to run that reverb-heavy upbeat clap through the whole track? And such glorious vocals.

Drum machine, organ and love.

Everything by Otis G Johnson. This is absolutely killing me. Amazing, pure expression and emotion. It could be (probably is) just me, but there's something very special about this album. A guy professing his love (God in this case, but it's the love that counts), with what he has at his disposal.

Bliss as fuck

An album by John Luther Adams "The Light That Fills The World"
We saw a piece of his on Saturday night called "Waves" which was killer as well. Moving, near-tangible expression. Do yourselves a favour.

Been getting down to these at New Day a bit recently. Coffee tastes even better when the barista's dancing.
