simon peter hat seine arbeit bereits auf labels wie claremont 56, aficionado und archeo recordings vorgestellt und hat nun zwei intime, originelle balearische produktionen auf dem forest jams label. auf der b seite finden sich zwei remixe, beide aus japan. der eine stammt vom duo coastlines (flower records, be with records) mit seinem unverwechselbaren downtempo-sound, der von wunderschöner klavierarbeit durchzogen ist, der andere vom newcomer shu suzuki.

basil & rogers is a sleazy, california disco duo made up of heru (dj) johnny basil and body rogers. basil, a multi-instrumentalist, long-time record collector, and energy healer is a man that s been making music for a long time under many different guises and in many different styles. heru avenger (acid/psych rock), non stop (electronic/free jazz), baast (kraut rock/jazz funk), and kandi jones (slut rock) are just a few of his projects, past and present. most of this music has been around for the entirety of the 90 s and 2000 s without being heard because despite basil s outspoken appearance (described by many as looking like iggy pop s twin brother and would never be caught wearing a t-shirt no matter the location) he s very quiet about his musical output. body rogers is also part of the non stop group and is a master of electronics and engineering. on the basil & rogers project the two have made a disco 12- that is influenced by classic-era dance music while still being completely unique and far from conforming. it s crazy, it s sexy, and it s sleazy. tune in .

laid back vibes so hot you can smell the sun block melting away... attention: very hot!

strange valleys, the 2018 full-length from starving daughters, is a progression as well as a shift in sound from the la band s already-stellar previous releases. make no doubt about it that the sound of progressive rock and psychedelia still play a big role here but there s certainly a greater influence from library music on the new lp. the starving daughters vinyl impressions blog, led by chris tillotson of the band, shared the music of chris s collection of which many were library lp s. these records seemed to have seeped into the mind, body, and souls of the whole band on this strange valleys lp. everything from the instrumentation, the attention to melody, to the track-length shows the large appreciation they have for library music. that being said, this moog-heavy, psychedelic-prog-funk, california-themed record is certainly unique and adventurous. winding through the exotic roads of strange valleys is certainly a trip well worth taking over and over again.

mori ra brings oriental forest to the occidental forest jams label based in southern california. this is a super limited release with less than 250 copies available worldwide. no repress.

elleorde was born 3 years ago at camp cosmic, an anything-goes music festival in the swedish forest that s recently been relocated to the german countryside. elleorde s debut record shares the same themes as the fest with a combination of time travel, cosmos, space exploration, sunsets on exotic planets, and universal love. not to mention, these are forest jams, mind you. the uk one-man project draws influences from war, dexter wansel, tantra, cerrone, ennio morricone, supermax, you get the idea. step in to the battlestar gallactica, open wide and eat the future.
