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.

Singles & EPs Round Up - August 11th, 2022

Haotian - Terrace Fields (hw Music)

Vertical Divider
I'm liking this blend of warm electronics &  Asiatic acoustic  instrumentaion with its almost New Age vibes. It's a bit of an album anomaly as the rest of the tracks flirt around singer songwriter & folk rock genres, but I have to admit to being drawn to it as it's a rare slice of underground Chinese music infiltrating the West. You an also hear the track in The New Age of New Age playlist.

Edgar Nyembwa - Journey To Rest (Self Release)

Nyembwa is a Canadian jazz guitarist who appears to be taking life easy as this four track EP of unhurried guitar meditation testifies. Here he defies easy genre classification by astral projecting through ambient Americana, ethereal folk and New Age territory whilst musing on why everyone seems in such a rush all the time. He aslo sounds right at home in The New Age of New Age playlist.

Balthvs - Komorebi (Cubensis)

Vertical Divider
Balthvs are a Colombian outfit that mine musical inspiration around the dream pop and chill out areas to pretty easy listening and reassuringly familiar effect, but I reckon they've hit the Balearic nail on the head with this one as I can well imagine myself watching the sun set somewhere off the west coast of Ibiza with this making the experience even more enjoyable. If this is grabbing you then you'll probably appreciate this Slow Balearic selection.

Ebi Soda - Pseudocreme (Tru-Thoughts)

Ebi Soda have been one of the UK's nu-jazz crew's to keep an eye on for the last few years and I'd urge you to dive into Honk If Your Sad, their recent LP from which this single is grabbed for the full picture, but as this caught my ear recently why not start with this unassuming bossa rhythm that rapidly spirals out of control into pleasingly attitude but not anger adjusted nu-wave jazz before vanishing unexpectedly in a cloud of smoke. If you're in the mood for a whole heap of new wave jazz then Slow Jazz is your friend.
