Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from July 30, 2020 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 know, but supposedly there is nonetheless contention around this - that's the wrong link btw
  8:29pm
Dean:

Harpsichords take a bad rap. They're gorgeous instruments. One of the many musical highlights of my life was hearing Ton Koopman performing on my then boss's harpsichord in his home. And I might argue that *the finest recording ever on vinyl* is a recital on harpsichord of Goldberg Variations on a label supported by Yves-Bernard Andre's marvelous tube gear.

Link is to a Fleetwoods's box.

yeah, very different from the Francis Bebey. It must be the phase where he 'found god'.

Not sure Bebey had such a phase exactly – it's not all that different from certain work he'd always been making – I wonder if you're thinking of Onyeabor who did have a head-on with evangelism

Bebey's work was generally excellent to the end, I selected this song because it&its album are fairly unique

i struggle with a lot of Schmidt & Kumo because I don't much fancy that drum&bass sound but every time Schmidt returns to the Gormenghast theme it's back on for me and I love it

You inspired me to pull out some mid-'60s Arthur Lyman for my first set, I think.

Doug Schulkind:

Our WFMU colleague Rob Weisberg once interviewed Francis Bebey backstage during intermission of a concert (I believe at Carnegie Hall) and Bebey denied any knowledge of the Pygmy Love Song Lp.
