Recommendations Round Up - 5/1/2019 - THE SLOW MUSIC MOVEMENT

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.

Recommendations Round Up - 5/1/2019

Our weekly RSS feed friendly round up of this week's recommendations just in case you don't want to follow us daily on social media.

Zoltan Fecso - Conversations for One (Bandcamp Self Release)

More on point, pointillism inspired, minimal ambient vibes from Zoltan Fecso on this all too short, hastily arranged, quickly improvised but lovingly crafted EP that is sounding great with the winter sunshine streaming through my windows.

Objekt - Cocoon Crush (PAN)

Balancing darkness with rays of hope & thankfully slowing the tempo so we can appreciate the cinematic futurism, soundscaping craftsmanship, otherworldliness, mixed emotions & wordless critique on our disorienting times is Objekt's LP for PAN. An incredible listen.

ALEX KASSIAN - HIDDEN TROPICS (UTOPIA RECORDS)

Check out the seemingly ayahuasca fuelled, ambient inclined, New Age minimalism, technology & nature fusing, deep house flirting sounds of Alex Kassian on Utopia Records out of London.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - SALAAm FOR YEMEN (HIBERNATE/DRONARIVM)

Inspired by the humanitarian tragedy in Yemen, two great labels Hibernate Recordings & Dronarivm combine forces to raise money for War Child UK with this excellent selection of ambient, electro acoustic, drone and modern compositional music from some of the top names in the game.

ISORINNE - STUMHETENS (NORTHERN ELECTRONICS)

A soothing yet stirring, ambient electronic soundtrack for brave new futuristic worlds from Isorinne for Northern Electronics seems like an apt start to the New Year as sore heads swim with new ideas and plans for fresh starts. Here's to a more peaceful, sustainable, equitable, tolerant and caring 2019.
