Sounds Like
Very experimental folk music, with a focus on communication and emotion.. .. .. . .. Go HERE to HEAR lots of tracks.
The Puddle Parade - origami a surprising CD by a German musician living in Utrecht, containing 35 minutes of very minimal, hissy and adventurous popsongs. Her influences range from experimental analogue electronics to mid-nineties lo-fi, with melodic sound-sketches put together as an audio-notebook. For fans of f.i. Colleen, Lau Nau, Mt. Eerie, Vollmar, Iditarod, Machinefabriek, Tara Jane O'Neil, or anything on Morc Records really.
I put some Elephant Micah on the new edition of Crop Circles, which posts on Monday 6/1 (breakthruradio.com). Hope you like the show. Say hi to B-ton for me!
"This cassette, entitled 'PIA: Flight 831/761' is a 30 minute sound journal I recorded in the airspace of Pakistan on October 16, 1999. While traveling home from Nepal that day, my friends and I were delayed for a few hours in Karachi airport because there was a coup happening in Islamabad! We weren't in any danger, but it was still quite intense.
Side A features an extended spontaneous harmonium piece entitled 'Ke Garne' (Nepalese for 'What to do')... layered harmonium melodies blend with the sound of the airport and CNN reporting the coup live as it unfolds.
Side B features a 15 minute master-mix of the exciting in-flight entertainment offered on board PIA... enjoy the sound of the plane and an eclectic A.D.D. shitfest of sound!"
I like playing shows with you. You make my tail twitch. And you know how I feel about fruit and vegetables. I like you as much as I like swiss chard and carrots and cabbage.
well what do you know, you already have this one! and you collaborated with both of them as well!
take care,

Jessic Bailiff & Annelies Monseré - Untitled ep
cdep, morc 48
Although it’s just the two of them, this ep has a very built-up sound, which is reminiscent of Jessica’s earliest output and Annelies’ most recent live shows. Vocals, guitars and cello- and keyboard drones get a very prominent role on these recordings.
The cdep comes in a ltd. edition of 310 numbered copies, in an lp-alike sleeve, with partially handwritten linernotes by annelies.
