Lucky enough to see the man at Cognac Blues Passion just 10 months before he died...

Is 'cross-posting' allowed?




I picked it for the "drugs music" thread and started listening, the next thing I knew I'd rolled a banger and here I am

 

[brogdale]

You might be in the mood for this then?

Hadn't heard that before (quite liked it) it led me to this (an old favourite of mine)..

For me a source of joy in a sometimes pretty miserable world

 

[Autochthonous1]

Found him a few years ago and my life has not been the same since. When I was in Hawaii I met a girl who had sung with him, she was incredible too. His music is utter release and escapism for me.

 

[Autochthonous1]

We posted that at the same time. Yes, totally, me too, just can't not bring you joy!

 

[Autochthonous1]

This actually makes me cry a bit this one (turned up loud)... it's kind of too beautiful for me to handle.

Have you Heard this guy (I've got 3 of his albums so far) ...




And this is (for me) just fantastic (like a trip in a time machine)...



I'm not that into mainstream apparently

 

[Autochthonous1]

Fuck. Incredible. Beginning to end. Does something to me that last Habib one.

 

[Autochthonous1]

Nope, not heard of him. Creepy, beautiful. Doesn't move me much though. Just creeps me, but in a good way.

The arrangements in Habib Koite's material are open and sort of "honest" (if you know what I mean) I grew out of music that "forces" a reaction a while back, I'd rather hear something with a little more art/joy

I find Luc Arbogast's music restful and relaxing, especially if I've been recording a metal band or a rapper (I don't know why but both those genres seem to jar me in a particular way (it's not that I particularly dislike either genre, it's just the effect they have on me))

 

[Autochthonous1]

Love it when vocals come in...

Erik Satie will always do that for me.

Yeah I like that (that's what I love about music, there's always stuff you've not already heard, not like those "political parties" )

I am afraid I'm going to have to break the chain for now (my dogs need walking, I'm getting the "longing looks that say it all" from all three of them, so I've no choice )
