View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Did y'all celebrate Bandcamp Friday?

Listener Gregory:
I got a couple of things but managed to show some restraint.
DJ Peter:
"Breaking references her desire to push herself and her bandmates to their limits, to mine the transcendent
results of virtuosic imaginations confronted by unexpected challenges. Stretch captures her music’s
intense elasticity, its ability to stretch from the taut and minutely focused to the wide-angled and reaching.
Those extremes are depicted in the album’s striking artwork, a mix of astronomical and volcanic images,
placing the cosmic and the subterranean side by side – the differences between the opposing poles, as in
Brennan’s work, at times nearly indistinguishable."
CDToaster:
The prior show seemed to have encountered its problem after I acknowledged the coolness of the website you posted.

A narrative of Jesus's Passion (see sense I.1c), esp. an account from the Gospels. Also: (esp. in later use) a piece of music, play, etc., representing or depicting the Passion. Cf. passion play n. 1.
My gripe is two-fold: Most people who use "passion" are wittingly or not being figurative, and their readers are unwittingly hearing the word as somehow literal. Okay, whatever, that's fine.
Second, to my mind nobody is passionate about anything. *Maybe* capitalists are passionate about profit, but I actually doubt it. Wanting something real bad is not passion.
