Thanks! If I'd only looked further down the page to the notes I would have seen that it was indeed 'Toys' and I wouldn't have needed to waste your time. Sorry! As you were.
@the conscience: From the Ukraine to the Czech Republic – I'll just chuck in this (not new) quickie as you'll appreciate it – a snatch of 'Mezi Horami' by ÄŒechomor and Jaz Coleman, from the wonderful album, 'PromÄ›ny':
Full studio track here:
It could be a distant relative of 'The Hunt' (a track that hasn't yet received the credit it's due, by the way – I might have to put that right).
Lovely stuff! Thank you! I've got plenty to get my teeth into now exploring these amazing, new (to me) bands, Altin Gün and Imarhan. Need to get to know Mdou Moctar and Tamikrest better too.
KEXP get some cracking bands in, don't they? As well as Altin Gün on there, I'm also enjoying the great, aforementioned Tinariwen:
and Mdou Moctar:
@the conscience: Thank you! That's good stuff! They are really tight, great groove, love the synth solo and she is great! Singers like that put their western equivalents to shame (if you don't include Lisa Gerrard, Sandy Denny and one or two others). I want to hear more!
@Melanzani – Imarhan are new to me. Wow! That really sizzles at the 2 minute mark. I'm seriously going to be exploring further! Thank you!
Mdou Moctar, Tinariwen, Tamikrest, Songhoy Blues – all great stuff too, with the guitar and the vibe I'm looking for! BCUC are quite interesting too.
These are refreshing developments!
Agreed on Songhoy Blues. I have their album, 'Music in Exile'.
Better give a link to Tinariwen. Just love that guitar!
Thanks Mark and Bernie!
@knoot – I was already very grateful to you for this and all the other gems you uploaded so this is an opportunity to tell you so. Did you film this one? If not, then thanks must also go to the guy who captured this gig.
I think the duplication was always going to be a possibility with this stash. Better two copies than none!
To my ears the Vimeo version sounds a tiny bit better but that might simply be down to Vimeo having better sound than YouTube.
Again, though, massive respect to anyone who goes to the trouble of selflessly and freely sharing what they have rather than hoarding or trading.
Reckon the OpenAI Jukebox must have needed a lie down in a darkened virtual room after this:
Thanks Ratmaus. Now that cover of Lacuna/Sunrise was a version well worth doing. It brings out the fragile beauty and occasional majestic grandeur of the original and complements it rather than attempting to replace it. I should have known I would like it as I discovered, part way through listening, of the involvement of Nicklas Barker from Anekdoten. I was not aware of this project, Kosmogon, and certainly anything inspired by Manuel Göttsching is going to get my attention anyway.
What I'm hearing of their album I really like. As the Motorpsycho Tribute Bandcamp page doesn't seem to link to their Bandcamp page, here it is:
Can't say I'm loving this, but anyway:
And as for 'Sir' Tony Blair…? Well, maybe it's best said with a Gibson ES-295…
A lady out walking her dog makes a comment about how stupid the New Normal is … police goon squad surrounds her, roughs her up, and finally arrests her. Welcome to New Normal Germany … and thanks to everyone who is still pretending this is about a virus! https://t.co/D2okelzRqD pic.twitter.com/5N4ZPBXUGn

How are things in the state of Denial, guys?
