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.

R.A.P. Ferreira - Purple Moonlight Pages (Ruby Yacht)

WHAT THE COVER LOOKS LIKE:

WHAT WE SAY:

Braggadocio is not an issue with R.A.P. Ferreira, as his conscious, rap oratories glide effortlessly over the cultured beats of his stellar LP from earlier this year. (Big thanks to this fascinating article for the tip)

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY:

"His job is inventing trophies of experiences-- objects and gestures that fascinate and enthrall, not merely (as prescribed by older generations of artists) edify or entertain. His principal means of fascinating is to advance one step further in the dialectic of outrage. He seeks to make his work repulsive, obscure, inaccessible; in short, to give what is, or seems to be, not wanted. But however fierce may be the outrages the artist perpetrates upon his audience, his credentials and spiritual authority ultimately depend on the audience's sense (whether something known or inferred) of the outrages he commits upon himself. 
The exemplary modern artist is a broker in madness." 
- Susan Sontag. The Pornographic Imagination.
