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 29th, 2022

Vertical Divider

Milkweed - YELLOW PLAGUE (DEVIL DOWN TAPES)

The wonderful vocal of who I'm not quite sure (musical credits have been overlooked, although everyone else gets a mention!) soar over the gratifyingly raw and hypnotic strings & there's even some bird sounds as well - "slacker trad", I'm sold. This is boding really well for the duo's debut LP due in September.

Cloud Opacity - The Path Between Two Pines (Yellow Yellow Yesterday)

Cloud Opacity is a prolific & consistently solid contributor to the modern ambient scene, so it's about time he got a shout out. So dip your toe into his horizontal waters with this short but sweet, gently undulating ambient sound bath, augmented by the sounds of our feathered friends who provide a joyful foil to the slightly more sober strings.
​Check him out on the Slow Ambient playlist.

JAMES VICKERY - THE REASON (Left Side)

Vertical Divider
I do like to visit my soul boy roots from time to time & move with the R&B times to update my reference points lest I get stuck in a Terry Callier & Leon Thomas time loop, & the new tune from James Vickery is hitting the smooth out sweet spot with his thoroughly modern, somewhat familiar but pleasingly minimal approach to dreamy, late night lovers soul. Check him out on the Slow Soul playlist

Tikom - Narcisse (Radicalis)

I get a lot of beats sent to me and this one from Tikom starts off in fairly standard fashion but slowly develops a differentiating parallel dimensional, cosmic edge when the bass gets turned up to 11 and an electronic portal suddently opens for those who want to leave our sinking planetary ship to leap through. Check him out on the Slow Hop playlist which has all your head nodding beat needs covered.
