lonely heart dancing.

 

strong nordstrom jazz vibes from 98.

ridewimmie.

 

fucking ace finnish fusion from the 80's.

live from mars.

 

one of my absolute fav ecm releases, gary& eberhard's playing is aublime.

a round moon in the distance.

 

perfect heat dome vibes for the mpcs.

dancing alone.

 

i've been listening to enno velthuys for a decade or so now after discovering him on the silver clouded comp featuring robert turman. a totally under sung dutch artist from the 80's, this is some really special ambient music. if anyone has vol III in this series please drop a link in the comments.

ps not my rip, so thank you to whoever uploaded these to slsk. i've heard rumblings of a reissue series, let's hope it comes to light.

laying in the grass.

 

one of my favorite bands when i was a teen in the 90's. criminally under sung shoegaze band that kinda reminds me of blue ontario at points.

in & onwards.

 

wonderful japanese jungle from the turn of the century. if venetian snares listened to ambient & dub, you might get close to this gem. 

resurrecting the stones.

 after the dissolution of generation x, two of the members linked up with simon bernal from mlr to form empire. a fantastic mix of post punk, power pop & new wave, unfortunately the label folded right after their only lp came out. fortunately for us, copies of the album made its way over the atlantic to dc & was a large inspiration for the revolution summer sound.
