LANDRECORDER

New (old) mix

landrecorder — Thu, 09 Jun 2011 16:43:10 +0000

Here’s an old mix I found on a tape I made about 15 years ago on a long hazy afternoon – hooked up three decks and got the tape recorder going as I worked my way through my collection of old 70′s electronic albums. Pretty murky sounding, but a nice way to spend 50 minutes of your time… Hope you enjoy!

NEW RELEASE: PACIFIC

landrecorder — Tue, 17 May 2011 21:13:43 +0000

Decided to put my latest release up, entitled Pacific. It’s a bit of a messy beast, that goes to and fro, but I enjoyed making it and I hope some of you might enjoy listening to it too.

You can download it for free over at bandcamp: http://bit.ly/l01xGP

Enjoy!

Birds

Well, I haven’t posted a field recording for a while, but here’s a quick one I made this morning while the birds were going crazy in my garden…

Top 15!

After a few months of domestic chaos, I finally managed to grab a few moments the other night to get back in front of the computer with making music in mind… and I have to admit I found it a pretty testing experience. What with one thing and another I’ve probably been doing a lot more listening to music than recording or trying to write it over the last few months.

With that in mind, it struck me that now seemed as good a time as any to reflect on the music that I’ve enjoyed in the last 12 months or so. Here’s a top fifteen of my favourites – some old, some new and some that I’ve just rediscovered…

Diario – Daisuke Miyatani

The Mountain Record – Yuichiro Fujimoto

Memory – Animal Hospital

Hidden Name – Stephan Mathieu & Janek Schaefer

Causers of This – Toro Y Moi

Cosmogramma – Flying Lotus

Returnal – Oneohtrix Point Never

Rifts – Oneohtrix Point Never

Best Coast – Crazy for You

African Dub All-Mighty, Chapter 1 – Joe Gibbs and the Professionals

Hum – Sawako

Frictionalisms 1994/2009 – Anthony ‘Shake’ Shakir

Are Kisses Out Of Fashion? – Sudeten Creche

Nunatak / Teimo / Permafrost – Thomas Koner

Epsilon in Malaysian Pale (1975) – Edgar Froese

Review of ‘Fern Battles’ on Disquiet.com

landrecorder — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 11:29:09 +0000

Just found this really nice review of ‘Fern Battles’ on the fabulous Disquiet – been so busy with non-music related projects like moving house, looking after my son and trying to get some sleep that I’d missed it – a belated thanks to Marc.
I keep promising it, but new music and new field recordings will be on their way, hopefully in the not too distant future – it’s been a hectic few months but things are slowly beginning to settle down. Once I have a new, clear space to work in, (that isn’t full of cardboard boxes and children’s toys), then watch this space…

Autumn is coming!

Just a short recording of the wind blowing through the tree outside our house as the weather starts to get distinctly autumnal…
