Slow Music Recommendations Round Up - 27/7/2019

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.

Slow Music Recommendations Round up - 27/7/2019

Welcome to our weekly RSS feed friendly round up of the last seven day's music recommendations.

Elite Beat - By The Light of the Pyramids (Research Records)

Masters of Afro ambiguity, Elite Beat are back with two short, sweet and on repeat tracks as they whimsically & musically wander through the Sahara to Eastern African realms on their jazz juiced dub camels for Research Records

Particle Ray - Snake Church (Record Breakin')

360 spin your way into the weekend with the serious Philly soul bump, spoken wisdom & true house vibes of Particle Ray for Record Breakin' Music. One for the deep floors & house history appreciators.

LeoParden - Stilen er svimmel (Lyskestrekk Records)

Nigerian grooves meet Norwegian nouse whilst putting the dis(jointed) into disco and the fun back into funkiness. LeoParden's blend of synth soaked, wobbly, lo-fi grooviness for Lyskestrekk Records is a weekend primed, dancefloor friendly frolic.

Ogawa & Tokoro - Planetary Exploration 惑星探査 (Oriental Tapes)

Easy, breezy summer soul jams for the Balearic & BBQ massive as Japan's Ogawa & Tokoro put on the shades & get sun cream & sand all over their strings & synths on their LP of sunshine soundtracking loose grooves for Oriental Tapes.

Ludvig Cimbrelius - Intimacy (Past Inside The Present)

From non existent zeros to ambient heroes Past Inside the Present, in the space of a year, have put out a ridiculously large amount of high quality ambient music. If you ever need a comforting arm around your shoulder, the new LP from Ludvig Cimbrelius (Purl) in which the gentlest of instrumentation & angelic ethereal voices caress soft velvet atmospheres will be your new best friend.

The Quiet Temple - The Quiet Temple (The Point of Departure Recording Company)

No Monday moping allowed, just get The Quiet Temple LP for The Point Of Departure Recording Company on your headphones & let their mystical blend of psychedelic free jazz & cosmic Kosmische elevate you to a higher realm with a third eye view. Outstanding.

The HUmble Bee & Offthesky - All Other Voices Gone (IIKKI)

This Sunday suitable LP from The Humble Bee & Offthesky keeps growing on me as they electro acoustically explore the grey areas of our fading memories & rose tinted recollections in ambient, hauntalogical, cinematic, modern compositional & inventive fashion for IIKKI.
