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, Videos Round up - January 22, 2020

Chiminyo - Reachin' (Live Session)

Another recommendation that you need to hit the full screen button for, so you can fully appreciate the percussive dexterity of Chiminyo who not only knocks out some killer rhythms but also via intricate software coding  manages to trigger some spaced out synth pads in between hits to great effect. A most modern one man band.

Soul Delivery - Driving into Magic Hour

Vertical Divider
South Korea isn't the first country that springs to mind when you think about jazz, but Soul Delivery, who somehow are split between Seoul and London, have smashed it with this lovely laid back spaced out jam that is boding well for whatever comes next. Fingers crossed it's a 2022 LP.

NIN3S feat TEal Jazz - Adeve (Dorado)

Not only is this a great forward thinking nu-jazz tune with sparse perfectly judged horn playing that effortlessly rides the intricate undulating drum programming, Nin3s also adds some classical piano touches which add a sense of wonder to the mind blowing accompanying visuals, which are well worth viewing on as big a screen as you have.

Ben See - Balloon Tree (LaLaLa)

Vertical Divider
Ben See is all mouth and luckily plenty of action as well. A long time London choir leader, he's releasing this experimental choral collection and it most certainly deserves a second wind. Here's the title track which also happens to be my favourite.

Charbonneau & Amato - Evaporations (Backward Music)

I thought I'd give you early warning of this promisingly sounding EP that will be arriving in May, but as with most releases these days the singles are being dropped well before, and this gently rhythmic slice of dreamtronica should tick all sorts of chill out boxes for many.

Soshi Takeda - Same Place, Another Time (Constellation Tatsu)

Vertical Divider
Takeda is a reliable source of New Age and Balearic chill out tuneage. Here he drops another gem consisting of all the right old school sounds stitched together in a vintage fashion to serenade all sorts of Mediterranean holiday moments in 2022 and beyond.

Rime Trails - Second Spring (Self Release)

Rime Trails is one of ambient's best kept secrets, I'm not sure why he hasn't hit the heights of many of his less talented peers. Here he creates some wonderfully restless, multi-instrumental electroacoustic soundscapes to while away a lazy day or two.

DJ Python - Club Sentimientos Vol 2 (Inciensono)

Vertical Divider
Nice to hear that Python appears that he'll be continuing his  welcome and necessary mission to lower the tempo & mellow the vibe on the world's dance floors with this lovely 3 tracker of dreamy hip shakers and cloud staring optimised chuggers.

John Thayer - Listening Sky (Aural Canyon)

Nice to hear Thayer back so soon after the joys of his (anything but) Supermundane LP. This time the rhythm section is left back in New York and he concentrates on capturing the isolated wilderness of Eastern Nevada during an artistic retreat and popping it in an ambient frame. It sounds like a peaceful and wonderful place.
