QUEENING





If you live in Brooklyn and haven't gone to see QUEENING yet, I strongly suggest that you do so. These are two videos taken at a show at Paul Shaffer's House in the Bronx, 12/10/10. Queening have also put out a tape that you should def pick up. I listen to it all the time. You can purchase it from Permanent Records of Chicago.

KIM JUNG MI / WIND
























If you had to choose only one compact disc to bring and listen to in your car, this should be it. An emotion for every driving situation. While a little shakier than her masterpiece, NOW (which I think came out the same year, 1973) it contains vital psychedelic materials not featured on said masterpiece. The glorious ballad, 추억 & the hard rockin'  어디서 어디까지 alone make this worth a (repeat repeat repeat) listen.

IsLaJa / BLaZe MoUnTA in RecorDings R0^d I8
























Flanged drum machine bounces while basslines wrap around a sweet voice in the room sound turned aqua tape. A solo is taken by a ponging keyboard evolving into a chime box clanging. Melodies abound, and even tho I don't speak finnish, I find myself singing along. Apparently recorded live, out on Thurston'z Ecstatic Peace! Islaja's website says of it, "Blaze Mountain Recordings is a live document, all music and words by Merja and played by Merja and Jukka. It’s the perfect portal to enter the living world of ISLAJA’s music/art spirit with a unity of traditional Finnish forest mystery and a radical song universe."
