  3. Being a good friend of this here mess, I appreciate your comments & links. I'm glad some of the stuff this month is getting through.

    As you well know, this months offerings are not the usual around here. Just thought I'd dedicate this February to some other music that might well get overlooked.

    Not all of it is to everyone's taste (not that anything around here really is), but I try to share things that for some reason or other are on my musical radar at the moment.

    An on-going debate/argument that I participate in with a handful of others as to the viability of music past/present sometimes leaves me saddened by the fossilization of some of the participants mental faculties. I try ever so hard to permit a universal timelessness to the sounds entering my mind, allowing them to be "of the moment" as I have often posited.

    But it's late at night & my old mind is just rambling.

    I have exciting things on tap after this project.
    The March Madness manifesto will spell out the begining.
    Then some April Fools.

    Thanks Diego for the links & words. Sorry if I got carried away. One of those nights.

    Be here now.
    If the musick soothes the savage breast, then it is good.
    That's all it need be.
    That's how musick's magick works.

    1. Well, getting carried away in "one of those nights" is what we call "Life" or part of it. Feels great to have the time for it.
      Just going for one of those tonight since I have a day off tomorrow.
      Neighbors already took to the hills grabbing their most valued posessions and pets.
      Both links I sent are fresh music too but I couldn't find the records themselves yet.
      Specially wanted you to listen to Augenwasser. The John Cale- WolgangPressish voice on top of a Tuxedomooning track seemed to me close to your tastes.
      Hope you found a new bong.
      Special cheers to AJ, hope you're ok, I also read your blog.

    2. Really enjoyed both links. Looking for Augenwasser's latest & back-catalogue (two others, I believe). I have Ingredients self-titled if you're interested. I can put a link here. Just let me know. Themes from Great Cities been Frenz of NØ for a good while. Enjoy your evening off & day tomorrow.

      Buenas noches, querido amigo.

    3. Hey Nathan I'd love to have a link to the Ingredient's record if possible.
      There's a Blue Nile touch in them I really enjoy..
      Hope you're allright, great sailor of the digital waves...

    4. I would like to offer my sincerest apologies to any who have downloaded Ingredient. I listened to it last night & it was the worst rip I have ever done. It was a complete jumble of glitches & skips & stutters. I don’t know what happened.

      I have re-ripped it & this time listened to it instead of just “trusting the process”. It is now pristine. Once again, sorry to all.

      Here is the new link:

  4. Hey Nathan, As an irregular commenter and poster I've found the Feburary fabulousness posted here a great way to introduce myself to bands and music I haven't heard before. I've downloaded 15 files to sample so far and I'm really looking forward to hearing them. I'll let you know what I think ; )

  5. AJ, you're another friend of this mess that I've been aware of for years. Thanks for going along with this experiment. Hope some of the things you've found so far give you some enjoyment. There appears to be about 60 folks taking this ride, dl'ing every day. To you AJ, to Diego above, & all you who are sticking with this...my deepest appreciation.
