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.

Escape-ism - Rated Z (Radical Elite)

WHAT YOUR EARS SAY & THE COVER LOOKS LIKE

WHAT WE SAY

Real bad asses don't need to shout, you just know they mean it. Raw, lo-fi, slow, swaggering, distorted, deviant rock and roll from Escape-Ism for those moments when you just need to tell the world where to go.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY

THE NEW RECORD BY THE FOUND SOUND DREAM DRAMA “ESCAPE-ISM” IS ALSO THE LAST ROCK N ROLL RECORD. ROCK N ROLL, THE RITUAL BASED SUBCULTURE FOUNDED ON PSUBTARRANEAN INSOMNIA, RADICAL REINVENTION OF SELF, , POLITICAL PARADOX, POETIC OBFUSCATION, AND SIN-SATIONAL SPECTACLE HAS NO PLACE IN THE NEW DIGITAL WORLD OF CORPORATE CONFORMITY AND CONTROL. THEREFORE, THIS RECORD, “RATED Z” — WHICH FEATURES NOTES, TONES, & SOUNDS THAT ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED, WILL BE THE LAST ROCK N ROLL RECORD, AS PER THE NEW RATING SYSTEM (SEE BELOW). THE LAST GASP OF POETIC PERVERSITY. RATED Z — WHAT NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO FEEL, HEAR, OR SEE. 

RATED G ….. GENERAL AUDIENCES 

RATED PG ….PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED 

RATED R …. RESTRICTED 

RATED X …. ADULT AUDIENCES ONLY 

RATED Z … NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO SEE 

LISTEN IN 

TO THE DIN 

OF THE FORBIDDEN 

THE SOUND OF SIN 

SMELL TOUCH TASTE 

THEY TRIED TO ERASE 

OBSCURE & INFAMOUS 

BENEATH CONTEMPT 

ILLEGIBLE, UNINTELLIGABLE 

AND INCONGRUOUS 

DON’T LISTEN DON’T LOOK COVER YOUR EARS 

ABSOLUTELY NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO HEAR OR SEE
