The Slow Music Movement Blog

​Mostly we put our daily recommendations here for the blog readers among you, although occasionally we go longform.
Reading about music is a bit like looking at pictures of food - not nearly half as much fun as getting involved, so we scribble a brief intro to hopefully whet your appetite but you're better off just hitting play. Not very "slow" I know but there's a lot of music to check these days & hopefully you'll find the recommendations a handy filter.
​Trust your ears, not opinions.

Emile - The Black Spikder / Det KollektivE Selmord (Heavy Psych Sounds)

WHAT THE COVER LOOKS LIKE:

WHAT WE SAY:

If like me you're gutted you missed the early 60's counterculture scene, then turn on & tune into the freaky, throwback, outsider acid folk of Emile's LP for Heavy Psych Sounds from earlier this year. Big up Michael Feihstel's ever interesting purchases & the Bandcamp feed for the heads up (music tip!).

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTE SAY:

Melancholic and mysterious, but at the same time, strangely familiar. Combining surreal soundscapes with a distinct sixties style songwriting, Emile’s psychedelic loner folk debut comes together like a weird dream. A dream that shows a side of reality too strange to observe in any other way. Driven by acoustic guitar and haunting arrangements, the frontman of The Sonic Dawn presents a unique backdrop, on which songs about death, life, loss and fear of growing old melt together with a dystopian look into the near future of our civilisation.
