Playlist 383 - Jan 5 2016

The first show of 2016 had some great new music from

Tortoise, luscious shifting grooves from their new album The catastrophist
Noveller, more epic soundscapes from one guitar, new album No dreams
Josephine Foster, characterful vocal troubador songs, new album No more lamps in the morning.

And some further fond memories from 2015 in the shape of

Daniel Knox, endearing cabaret bounce
Rozi Plain, beautiful kosmische type folk, both playing Cork's Quarter Block Party in February.

And Lee Hazlewood from 1966, taking a leaf from Morricone, with massed vocals and bending strings...marvellous.

Best of 2014 - Part 4: Jazz/Chamber/Orchestral/Wonky/Ambient/Minimalist

Image
And so the final part of this journey back through 2014. I've titled this bunch in favour of the Orchestral/Jazz end of the pop spectrum but there are certainly a few refugees from Dream Pop, Folk, maybe even Soul (and one showtune). Who's counting though. There are also a good number of Electronic pieces in here as promised, but more of minimalist, downtempo and/or industrial leanings. Mood wise, I think this set hangs together pretty well. Whatever, there's a lot of great music in here for sure. Just as a reminder, here are the other three parts of my 2014 Review. http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2014/12/best-of-2014-part-1-folkrootscountry.html http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2014/12/best-of-2014-part-2-soulpopjangleelectr.html http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2015/01/best-of-2014-part-3-psychkrautrockpunkb.html 1.
