Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from June 29, 2017 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

i don't like being here all that much, but i do love firefly season.

last night something large was crashing around in the woods while i did the firefly thing. it was probably a deer, but i *did* find a giant black bear stool the last time i cut my lawn. soooooo....

I felt torn between rustic and urban, too, when I lived in the country. I've found that being in a small city neighborhood with yard and trees is a decent compromise.

@hyde that sounds about right. I did miss the country for a while after moving, but I've never felt the need to move back. Lack of cultural stimulation, variety of people, interesting buildings and other features of built environment...no thanks.

Nicely said about these titles, Flash
Avatar ♥ 8:28pm
northguineahills:

Wasn't the reason behind library records is that companies would record libraries of sound for TV programs/docs/radio plays and the titles would give the curator of said shows and idea what moments would go w/ what sound?

Now that I have a job, I need to find a place to live. Looking for a place close enough to be walking distance from the downtown, but far enough away from the students. Only a 30-60 minute drive to many wilderness experiences. Going to be different then Brooklyn.

maybe so, but it'll definitely be Umiliani in a pretty different mode, much more film-jazzy

you can really hear his Ellingtonian influences on this one

A little town (by NYC standards) w/ city accouterments, and mostly wilderness around it.

This is a pretty star-studded compilation library LP with a bunch of different artists, I always wondered if it was really recorded in 1972 or just a collection of earlier sessions. could go either way.

What does it document?! Ithought Harryhausen also; combination of scale and improbable clay-like greenish mud color.

@G: the next album I'll play from is very similar in sound, and is sort of nominally lullaby or children's music themed – totally weird mix of disturning and calming, I guess a lot like Raymond Scott's Soothing Sounds for Baby
