Chuck Van Zyl | The Gatherings 15 September 2024 | bandcamp | 16/44.1 | FLAC
“Offering vivid electronic timbres and synthesized sonorities the music’s appeal lies in its “Kosmische Musik” values, and in this musician’s ability to realize an uncommonly intimate and absorbing listening experience. Anyone in love with Spacemusic and its very specific poetry will want to hear his concert journey."
Andy Bloyce (aka The Soviet Space Dog Project) has been cleaning up his Bandcamp page and is removing a lot of his older recordings. I’ve picked up a fair few recently before they are gone for good.
Loving the rhythmic beauty of this one. Serves as a nice change between my black metal deep dives.
He really does keep the spirit of the Berlin School alive, some wonderful stuff and very glad to have it as a download.
Mike Oldfield - Discovery (Remastered) Deluxe edition, 24 bit 96 kHz from Qobuz
Often people talk about the Big Three by Oldfield from the beginning of his career in the seventies. And rightfully so… Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge and Ommadawn are some of his best works.
Yet these three could be considered his big three from the eighties and I value them highly. It was actually Crises that got me hooked to his music in the first place. So I figured it was time pursuing them in hi res as well.
