Listening Diary 20241220
- Underworld - Dark & Long - https://www.discogs.com/release/15659-Underworld-Dark-Long: Sometimes only a bit of Underworld will do. All the versions of Dark & Long collected from the EPs. There are a lot, but the variations between them keep it interesting.
- Lost Harbours - In the Direction of the Sun - https://cruelnaturerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-direction-of-the-sun: A collection of field recordings and drones with poetry. Desolate but uplifting.
- Enofa - The House By the Sea - https://enofa.bandcamp.com/album/the-house-by-the-sea: More pastoral ambience with more rhythmic passages. More a collection of sketches than a complete LP.
- Low - I Could Live in Hope - https://www.discogs.com/master/225930-Low-I-Could-Live-In-Hope: After listening to an early radio session last week, it occurred to me that I’ve never actually heard their debut LP, so I’m correcting that now. All the parts are there , perhaps a little primitive, but the same pace and intensity.
