Chill on Sunday
Delia Derbyshire's longest known recording, made with artist Elsa Stansfield. Never released until 2016. This is an electronic score with ambient environmental sounds, birdsong, sound design, all from a killer art house movie made about Pamela Bone's amazing photographic glass slides.
Delia Derbyshire & Elsa Stansfield - Part Two from: Delia Derbyshire & Elsa Stansfield - Circle of Light (Trunk, 2016)

Melos Kalpa — S-T (Hands in the Dark)

This self-titled album is likely Melos Kalpa’s first and last recording, since its founder, the London electronic composer Tom Relleen died four years ago, months rather than years after the basic tracks were recorded. His untimely death at 42 puts an end to an entrancing experiment, in which free-ranging, in-the-moment improvisation undergoes a kind of post hoc composition via electronic cutting and rearranging.
Both the players and their instruments are unusual. Ringleader Rellen plays a Buchla Music Easel, as well as more conventional bass, vibraphone and mellotron. His partner Marta Salogni takes on tape manipulation, commanding various decks: a Revox PR99 and two AKAI 4000DS Reel to Reel Tape Machines. David John Morris of Red River Dialect plays guitar, as you might expect, and a cuatro puertorriqueño, as you might not. Jem Doulton, who sometimes accompanies Thurston Moore and is a member of Too Many Things, shades these pieces subtly with percussion, adding marimba, vibraphone, drums and shakers. Agathe Max, of Abstract Concrete, Papivores and These Towns, adds strings, mandolin and vocals.
These cuts are textured delicately, nearly translucent in the layers of acoustic plunk and marimba clink and electronic blipping rhythms. “Motion Parallax” vibrates with contradictions, gypsy guitar lyricism, looming synthetic drones and the tonal rattle of malleted percussion. Tradition brushes up against space age mystery here; the cut is both firelit and futuristic. “Tanger” stalks tersely, on a staccato beat, organic sounds flitting in and out of its electronic architectures. It feels like a soundtrack to a rainy, nocturnal thriller, full of tension but morose and ruminative, too.
The album includes five tracks, four of them in the five-to-six-minute range, and one of them, “Melos Rhythm” taking up a full record side at just over 22 minutes. It’s here that Melos Kalpa’s world music, drone elements get the fullest airing, the string flourishes and cymbal rolls blooming as a guitar (or similar) keeps a one-note rhythm going. The rhythm repeats, picking up percussion and an electronic motif as it goes, but remaining fundamentally steady, and within it, all sorts of arcs and sweeps and flurries of sound jet by. It’s a lot like Natural Information Society, the way that the repetition locks you in and the flourishes set you free. Inspiration within discipline. Art in a puzzle box. Melos Kalpa is anchored and flying at the same time.

Whistled in the dictaphone, then played with the playback speed. I'm a bird now. Part of my contribution for a birdsong-and-mood-themed album in the works by Jordan Rodger. They've got various vocalists/guests across the tracks.

Square Military Rank Insignia Militaries: you really think it's reasonable to invade in secret any foreign planet, much less one in a different universe, much less one in the oldest universe, much less one you don't even have accurate locational references to, such as star charts or maps? If you have square military rank insignia know that you come from outside this cluster of galaxies (The Bright Cluster of Galaxies), and are especially not from even any instance of this galaxy, referred to now as the Milky Way galaxy. Pictures of galaxies available through Google or Google Images or elsewhere on the Internet can easily confirm this; if you have images of your galaxy from the exterior. And we have incredible numbers of images of galaxies viewed from outside easily accessible via the internet or any computers connected to it or referenced on it. This level of technology on this planet in no way relates to your level of technological sophistication.

man can you imagine what life would have been like if The Boy arc had been like. good.
#imagine if they didn't pull a massive 'he wants to kill his future self reveal' and then ignore him for like 5 episodes#imagine that#they should have hired me i would have made it a time loop sooo fucked up#ok apparently it was 2 episodes but like. a very long two episodes that was a wildly weird decision#and they DIDN'T MENTION HIM AT ALL in the 1st one after it iirc#can you imagine what it would have been like if they remembered the mudstone abyss arc like. existed.#wtnv 250#imagine if they expanded on how the boy was a child who was not allowed to show anger because it made others fear and hate him.#imagine that. imagine if they remembered that he was abused. imagine if they knew anything at all.#imagine if they remembered literally at all that janet got the sandstorm tapes#imagine if lauren wasnt changed to OMG GIRLBOSS at the end instead of her like. clearly being manipulated by the smiling god#in the Exact Same Fucking Way Kevin Was.#imagine if they didn't forget kevin died immediately after killing him. as one of the top kevin guys (emotionally not popularity wise)#i think he should have stayed dead. at least for a little bit.#IMAGINE IF THEY HIRED LITERALLY ANY VOICE ACTORS FOR THE FUCKING FINALE

Jonathan Sims the Archivist is still the same old human Jonathan Sims the Dumbass. "I need a flesh anchor" "take something i won't need, like my rib"
First of all, you need your ribs! Second of all, what's the point of an anchor if you "don't need it"? Third, didn't it occur to you that flesh was something related to The Flesh, and maybe you could use something related to another entity, like the one you are serving, no???? Jon???
And after it all, The Lonely Martin saves the day because he seems to have some more functional braincells left, ones that aren't manipulated by Peter.
#tma#tma listening progress#season 4 now#i hate hate hate peter manipulating martin arc#if martin loses his martinness ill flip some tables#overall love how jon has realized that everyone has to work together#a bit too late but he at least have that thing figured out#also i miss elias. there are different tastes of manipulation and elias was much more better#fandom#if it turned out that the anchor was actually martin and not the tape recorders i will also flip some tables#either way i said it was getting frustrating but now its getting into Good Frustration area#im enjoying it
