AKASHA SYSTEM – VAGUE RESPONSE, CS (100% Silk, 2016)

Six lovely cuts of smooth coastal house. You got the bag full of tracing muted melodies with fog, bass, glass, rhythm, and reverb. Sounds like it’s put the sun in a bottle.

THUNDER TILLMAN – JAGUAR MIRROR 12” [ESP Institute, 2016]

Swedish Oscar Tillman under the monicker Thunder Tillman. Some kinda krauty disco rocky drones. Just perfect for late summer nights. Keep an eye or two for a full length later on…

FREE AKTION – BE LOVE NOW (Half-Night, 2016) 

”FREE AKTION play music with a message, addressing personal growth as well as social change. It is a message of universal love and solidarity, self compassion and true equality. It draws its inspiration from teachers such as Ram Dass and Paramahansa Yogananda, as well as the inherent spirituality of house and disco.”

GREEN`S RESTAURANT

Often I end up in the Swedish 80s. I grew up in the swedish industrial and synth scene and I often look back there. Right now it´s Green’s Restaurant that catches my ear. However, without being industry or synth you can hear strings of it. He gave out lots of tapes so out and search!

Rickard >>

THE CONGOS – HEART OF THE CONGOS, 2CD (Blood & Fire, 1996)

For being one of my best and probably most played album of all time I still dont own this gem on the black gold! But you actually need this one for the extra tracks on the second cd. I never get bored of this album, even if I played it everyday at a shit industrial labour work some 15 years ago I still dont have bad memories to it.

THE ORB – ORBUS TERRARUM CD (Island, 1995)

Have been working on the computer a lot which demands long electronic cds, this is a great one to work to.

DEUTER – AUM, LP (Kuckuck, 1972)

Another piece of relaxing music for long hours in front of the computer, and I cant really get enough of using the sound of waves hitting the shore…

DAYDREAMING WITH STANLEY KUBRICK, Exhibition, London, Somerset House
