...looking for sound and vision

This transcendental sound comes from the 2016 album, Ceremonial.

Tomasz Ochman from Poland, aka LoopMaffia, and funky beats built upon Czesław Niemen’s Pod papugami. This is a perfect example of how loops and reworks can be very creative too!

So many covers of the song I go to sleep by Ray Davies and still the original is simply the best.

Ah, what a voice of Canadian singer Charlotte Day Wilson (aka CDW)!

Highly addictive song from French duo Agar Agar.

Last week I saw a movie Lion. I’ve seen better films with similar themes, but I’m grateful it reminded me this amazing tune of Hercules and Love Affair, i.e. Andy Butler and unmistakable  Antony Hegarty.

How could I possibly hear about it only now? Music by Tarwater, “lyrics” by Walt Whitman  and the voice of Iggy Pop on one album (Morr Music, 2016).

Project re:works (Decca, 2016) is a compilation of classical music in a electronic makeover and it is worth noticing if only for a few good remixes like Starkey reprise of Erik Satie (above) or Ulrich Schnauss’ Bach. On the other hand, Martin Buttrich and  Fort Romeau remixes sound to me like some brutal techno music and make this album impossible to listen as a whole.

Teho Teardo and Blixa Bargeld.

Video is made by Polish film director Michał Marczak in the mountains called Gory Izerskie. For Polish speakers - here’s interview with Marczak about this project.

That’s another French sound from Charles Ludig.

Théo Le Vigoureux, aka Fakear, is a 25-years-old French composer and multi-instrumentalist, creating electronic music with a nice touch of ethno.

A little bit of French touch by Cliché.

Husbands, French band of  Mathieu Hocine, Simon Henner and Mathieu Poulain.

Some soothing Sunday music from Aussie Matt Corby. Sunday. Forget Monday.

Though I always tend to prefer originals to covers and remixes, This one I really like - Selah Sue and Kwabs in Felix Joseph remix.
