Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from August 22, 2024 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.

Chitinous Ens. led by Paul Buckmaster, the man who supposedly introduced Miles to Stockhausen while they were working on On The Corner (thus having a huge influence on it and all that was to come): "Davis was first introduced to Stockhausen's work in 1972 by collaborator Paul Buckmaster, and the trumpeter reportedly kept a cassette recording of Stockhausen's electroacoustic composition Hymnen (1966–67) in his Lamborghini Miura."

one of my favorite dubs ever, among the best possible examples of what Tubby does to the drums

when Tubby uses delay to take the drums to double-time like that it makes me feel like a whirling dervish
