Jazzy, warm, bright, leisurely. Largely improvisational, the album exudes harmony. I have been obsessed with it. Perfect egg boiling music.

LP: Music for Saxofone & Bass Guitar (2018)
Interpretation of a 1980 Pharaoh Sanders composition (featuring, appropriately, Idris Muhammad on drums). Both Sams are amazing artists and band leaders on their own, and on this album (plus its two follow-ups thus far) they stretch their chosen instruments to their outer limits. Recorded mostly live, looped mouth sounds and taps on a mic drenched in reverb build the spare backing rhythms. Wilkesâs bass generates waves of tonal textures like fog on a city street. Gendelâs sax riffs are so alluringâeffortlessly beautiful and endlessly hummable. Your friends who donât like jazz will still love this. Your friends who do like jazz already know whatâs up.

No brass (guitar, bass & drums only) 1970s American Jazz. Moody, vibey, smooth, 35 minutes of good time. Idk what else to say, seek it out!

Sophisticated, modern, warm, jazz and jazz-adjacent work by Portland, Oregon area guitarist and composer. Plus, it's got a song called "Dirty Dishes"!

sloane_shark This method helps with notebooks that donât naturally lay flat! It isnât a perfect system, but it works pretty well.
I like *using tools* even if those tools are humble clips.

Doing a Molly Baz move and stir-frying some elbow macaronis I cooked awhile ago then doing an Eric Kim move and tossing the crispy pasta in a fermented, creamy sauce.
edit: pretty amazing, folks

Floristâs self-titled is gentle, sonically diverse, and poetic.
âSomeone told me once âyou better not let this passâ
Sometimes I think I have too many pasts
So what do you think, should we just be here on the land?
Listening to the sounds of life around us pass
Careful not to tread on anything needing restâ
from âFeathersâ
Itâs a quiet, folky spirtualism. There are also these ambient, field recording-y interludes sandwiched between songs, and itâs so, so good.
