Treat your taste buds to these mouthwatering leftovers!
As the week draws to a close, our Leftovers feature serves up a quintet of savoury musical tidbits, a delicious assortment of the most delightful scraps that still have plenty of flavour to savour. This week, let your ears feast on the sounds of Vanishing Twin, Mulianne Joor, Pauli Lyytinen, Maurizio Ravalico, and Another Taste. Five releases that will have you scrambling to hit the replay button.
Prepare for an epic two-part track/EP from the masters of neo-psychedelia Vanishing Twin. Imagine their eclectic psych, dreamy pop, and avant-garde art rock colliding with the timeless poetry of A.E. Housman. It’s like someone invited Broadcast, Stereolab, and a Victorian poet to the same cocktail party โ and they all actually showed up!
Whenever Dave De Rose drops something new, it’s practically a commandment to give it a listen. His music is like the golden ticket to a sonic Wonka factory, where every note is a delectable morsel. Under the enigmatic guise of Mulianne Joor, he charts a course through the vibrant landscapes of ambient atmospherics with his latest opus, “Have No Fear For These Machines.” So sink into your comfiest chair, hit play and enjoy. But don’t get too cosyโthis one packs a little kick.
Finnish saxophonist Pauli Lyytinen steps into the solo spotlight with ‘Lehto / Korpi,’ his We Jazz debut. This expansive environmental jazz ambient album seamlessly weaves Lyytinen’s melodic mastery, field recordings, and an eclectic arsenal of instruments into a harmonious soundscape. Let the calming tones of Lehto I & II wash over you like a gentle breeze on a lazy summer afternoon.
London-based percussionist Maurizio Ravalico pushes the boundaries of the conga drums on his new LP ‘A Thousand Rawhide Diaphragms’. The entrancing ‘A Cheaper Love Letter’ is the first single from his upcoming new album.
Another Tastes album fuses boogie, ’70s funk, and obscure disco, reviving forgotten sounds and reinventing them for today. Lace up your dancing shoes and prepare to bust out your best moves.
