Might have to give it a listen-to sometime.



I would recommend "A feast of consequences". Saw him on the tour perform it in its entirety before I was familiar with the album. He chatted with fans outside in the rain waiting for the doors to open. A very down to earth bloke.

Now playing Kate Bush - The sensual world, having a lay in.

Keith Jarrett 'Arbour Zena' (1975)

Image

Soothing and gorgeous piece of neo-classical minimalism from Jarrett, here assisted by Jan Garbarek, Charlie Haden and a string orchestra.

Way ahead of its time - the likes of Max Richter and Johann Johannsson have made this type of music into a popular genre.

Here's a nice track to test the 'out of the box' capability of your stereo:

Elvind Aarset 'Superstrings'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtcMa-liEwA

Image

Aarset is a guitarist and regular collaborator with Nils Petter Molvaer. The two of them contributed this track to the Miles Davis tribute album 'Run The Voodoo Down' although it was originally recorded for Aarset's debut solo album 'Electronique Noire'.

There are some huge phasing effects at the beginning of the track which should send waves of sound flowing around the room.
Also killer Drum n' Bass effects that will set your floor shaking.

Beck - Odelay :dance:

I find this album is a good one for testing speaker modifications. If there are any problems they are often shown up with this.
