YO!

Blast from the past! I remember when I was 16 in the early 90's hearing these played on the radio. I used to listen to WBLS, NY on Saturday nights with Dr Dre and Silver D hosting, playing hip hop all night. They used to play theses St Ides commercial raps in between songs all the time. Love it. Good find. Ahhhh, the Golden Era....

Where'd you get that information from? Where'd you get that information from?

Chuck Person's Eccojams. That's where I got it from.

The only vaporwave album that I actually think was on to something a little. Some tracks really get to me.

The belbury poly: The belbury tales

Lately this record is getting a frequent spin on my record player. It's the latest addition to Belbury poly's uncanny adventures into an obscure english countryside. Like Mixing Midsomer Murders with Alister Crowley it's a wonderful trip into a light british psychedelica with all it's daftness. In the accompanying booklet a short story sets the scene. Here the protagonist is lured into some parallel world via a tv-screen in the local pub. A figure from "the other side" is then given a lift into the unknown.

Titles like "Unheimlich", "goat foot" and "Chapel perilus" give the listener hints of what's going on, but nothing more. And that is probably the album's greatest strenght. Just like the concept album in it's heyday the narrative is important but in a more nonlinear way than say a Genesis album.

The music itself is a mixture of folkish tunes, vintage electronics and semi-prog from the 70's added with spoken samples.The whimsical "Now then" recalls a goblin dance in the woods. "Unforgotten town", a suspenceful tune that adds to the foreboding atmosphere with it's spy movie theme. The penultimate track "Earth lights" indulges the listener in easy listning shopping mall music circa 1975 just before " Summer round" with it's medieval dance and kraut electronics closes the album.

"The belbury tales" is the poly's most diverse release and hereby recommended.

Right I am definitely taking a look at that. Sounds like it is either amazing or terrible.

I'll let you know

Yes I know. This is not for everyone. For a start I would recommend checking out Belbury Poly's labelmates The Advisory Circle and Pye Corner Audio for a more accessible retro sound. These bands were my introduction to the Ghost Box label.

The new album by Husky Rescue. Pretty decent.

Will do, I'm guessing they are part of the whole hauntology crowd.

Now playing:

Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven

The track Americans from this album is highly disturbing to me, holding a warped lens to western culture. Feels like the simultaneous awe, excitement and fear we feel from ubiquitous communication.

[Mao]

A bit more intense, but can feel the Boc influence in them!
