Secret Music Playlist, September 12, 2010

Hi -

Here's my playlist for last Sunday, 9/12/10. Would've gotten this up
sooner, but I've been sick. This was a special event, as it was the week
of WVKR's annual fundraiser. All the music I played was from CD's I had
to give away in exchange for people's donations. This year I made $1000,
which made me happy. They made me sweat for it this time, though. $750 of
that number came in the last hour. It was well worth it, though. Many thanks
to all those who called in and to all those that contributed CD's for premiums.

Secret Music Playlist, August 29, 2010

Hi -

Here's my playlist for Sunday, August 29, 2010. This was kind of a
special idea, sparked by a discussion in an online newsgroup (the ambient@hyperreal list)concerning women in ambient music. I've always felt that there weren't
enough of them, but lately the idea's been spinning around in my head. So
I decided to devote an entire show to it. After some dredging of my
collection, this is what I came up with. The albums and pieces played were
mostly "in the moment", with very little pre-planning. And they're not all
strictly solo artists, either. I used a few duos (and in one case a trio)
where the woman was integral to the sound, not just a supporting player.
There are old and new artists, some you might know, some you might not.
There's a few I invariably missed, though that means I'll have to do
another sometime. If I missed anyone really important, let me know. And if
you have any questions or comments, let me know. Thanks to all on the
Ambient Hyperreal list who stuck the idea in my head.

Featured Artists: August 2010

Hi -

This month I have two featured artists, one from right here in the Hudson Valley, and two record labels.

First is A Viberatto, a group based in the Hudson Valley. It features Jimmy Goodman on vibraphone, piano and synths, and a bunch of session people, including luminaries like Tony Levin and Garth Hudson. He calls it "chamber rock", though I'd call it more modern chamber music, akin to the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. I only wish the pieces were longer. Still, this is beautiful stuff. Check out the website for more info:

http://www.aviberatto.com/

Second is a man who needs little introduction in the world of ambient music, Steve Roach. He's one of the early pioneers of ambient music, having been around for well over 20 years. My discovery of his music early on certainly helped define the types of music I play on my show. He's also one of the most prolific artists, releasing several CD's a year. His newest, Sigh Of Ages, is a bit different. It's still identifiable as Steve, but it's a bit more majestic, more elegaic than usual for him. I like it a lot. For more info, check out his website.

The first record label this time around is Palace Of Lights Records. PoL has actually been around a long time, since the early 80's. It served mainly as a vehicle for the music of Kerry Leimer, but also included albums from a few others. The label vanished in the mid-80's, presumably never to be seen again. But Palace Of Lights resurfaced in 2002, with CD reissues of the early K.Leimer albums and new work as well. Since then, they've released a couple of albums a year, primarily of introspective ambient music. This time, there's three new CD's, from K.Leimer, Marc Barreca, and Gregory Taylor. All are well worth listening to. For more info, look at the website.

The other record label feature this month is Candy Rat Records. First, I love the name. Second, they're a label of guitar music. There are a few jazz/rock/folk albums, but primarily it's solo acoustic guitar. It's one of the few labels left that presents solo acoustic guitar music, and certainly the most innovative. There's a ton of good acoustic guitar music here from all over the globe. For more info, check out their website.
