Quiet Murmurs, by Hideo Nakasako 7 track album

At some point last year I dived down a massive Japanese ambient rabbit hole. I’ve only partly re-emerged because I keep finding so many great albums. This one by Hideo Nakasako is sublime from start to finish, but if you play one track, make it Dust

Twilight on The Water Surface, by Hirotaka Shirotsubaki 9 track album

I definitely have an ambient hat on today. This new one by Hirotaka Shirotsubaki on the always excellent Stereoscenic label is an absolute beauty. He describes it as a hopeful album (it was recorded during Covid) and that really comes across.

great plains, by anthéne & Far away Nebraska 7 track album

Today’s album: still with Home Normal, I’m playing Great Plains by Anthéne and Far Away Nebraska, released yesterday. Another haunting, immersive ambient beauty.

How to Make Sense of Downtime, by Wil Bolton & David Cordero 8 track album

Album of the day: How to Make Sense of Downtime by Wil Bolton & David Cordero on the excellent Home Normal label. Beautiful ambient music for active listening

Chalybeate, by aus + the humble bee 8 track album

Another essential album! This is beautiful

objetos de campo, parte I, by bahía mansa 5 track album

I think I’ve raved about the music of Iván Aguayo, aka Bahía Mansa, before, but his new one, Objetos de Campo, Parte 1 is absolutely sublime. Find it here:

Amazing - my introduction to screwdriver guitar playing as well!

We’re off to a meeting tomorrow to see if we can turn our street into a swift street. I hope so!

Great album. I saw them a couple of years later at the New Ardri Ballroom in Hulme, Manchester with fIREHOSE and AC Temple supporting. A mind-blowing set -see below! And yes, ’dropping’ in this context sets the teeth on edge a little :)

Flow and Fracture (MEDS101), by Jo Johnson 8 track album

Now playing: Flow and Fracture by @jo-johnson.bsky.social. Gorgeous stuff. Anything Muzan Editions release is worth hearing, but this is particularly good.

RIP Fred Smith of Television — one of the coolest bassists of all time.

Thank you 🙏

I can feel a fit of jealousy coming on…

That’s a thing of beauty. How’s it sounding?

Case in point

Wrong Speed Records is rapidly becoming my favourite UK label

It’s as if Hamish Hawk was covering the first Gobetweens album

Now playing: very late to the party but this is lovely
