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 - June 3rd, 2021.

JJJJJerome Ellis - Fountain #3 (NNA TAPES)

Vertical Divider
If only more artists gave "live sound baths", the world would be a cleaner and mentally healthier place, so big up the man with many J's and  his inventive ambient use of saxophone, piano and synthesizer which takes all three instruments in otherworldly, unusual, calming & exfoliating electroacoustic directions.

Jeffrey Silverstein - Torii Gates (Self Release)

More guitar powered, inner guided journeys from the ever delightful Silverstein who rounds up his usual posse to ride into the great psychedelic plains of Americana and across cranial backwaters to a peaceful place, where the water is clean, buffalo still roam and there is enough for everybody.

Tapes - Sauna Research / Aquarium Trousers (Research Records)

Vertical Divider
Tapes is a real deal dub disciple who understands that the Jamaican golden age was framed around sublime simplicity. Here he gives us another chance to escape Babyon's maximal messages by guiding us deeper into the less is more hills.

PIERRE - La Belle Aube (Self Release)





​Nicely orchestrated quirky pop in the tradition of many but with an undeniable 
je ne sais quo, accompanied by a pleasing, hopefully ironic, video fromage. It's a grower trust me, you'll be humming it in the shower in no time.

Mocky -  Bora! (Heavy Sheet)

Vertical Divider
Mocky continues his quest to bring mid 20th century orchestral grandeur and cultured vintage exotica to the new copy and pasted, crassly autotuned 2020s which, let's face it, could do with a bit of sonic suiting and booting. Apparently this is the taster for a new LP - happy days.

Gavsborg - Domestic audio Workstation (Equikknox)

Equikknox & cohorts continue to delight by subverting most notions of Jamaican music. Rooted in sound system culture but with a restless & reckless disregard for genre conformity and little thought to what the neighbours are thinking, this is a digi-exotica & electronic El-Caribe delight.
Vertical Divider

Nebno - Eyote (Manon Schlittler)

Beguiling singer songwriter futurism transmitted from the mother ship over a drifting soundscape as rumbling low frequencies emanate from the planet's primordial swamps adding a tangible dimension to the otherwise ethereal  proceedings.

JAS SHAW - SOLLBRUCHSTELLE 3 (SELF RELEASE)

The triptych is complete. We've already recommended part one, swiped left on part two but we're back in love again with Shaw's ambient inclined minimal electronic meanderings through time, space and at least two parallel dimensions.
Vertical Divider

40 Thieves - In Your Space (Leng)

This lovely piece of tripped out chugging and stranger hugging cosmic disco has been sadly sitting gathering dust on the shelves of record collectors & DSPs for almost a decade. Nice to see it's finally been given a digital DJ day pass so it can roam a bit wider. It's still got love to give.
