This, from CoC visitor Tom7865 in the comments section of my post with chamber music from Jo Kondo:

posted this a while ago...

Jo Kondo self titled album (3 works) - vinyl LP rip (cp2 records-cp2/11).

Over on Hush! Caution! Echoland! there's a new mix out - "Pastorale" - give it a try, if you like what you're getting from "A Closet of Cursiosities".
Not so much of my own music in there - just two outtake tracks of electronics and bamboo percussion in the middle section and, closing the mix, "Pastorale 1", shimmering guitars all over.
You'll hear Nobukazu Takemura, as well as Toru Takemitsu, along with the light-generated music by Jacques Dudon (thanks to Continuo), two tracks by Burial, and a lovely tune from the Dutch 70s prog band Kayak. A piece of neo-primitive ritual music by an early Psychic TV leads into Synaulia's semi-authentic recreation of ancient Roman music. And much more...

  1. Nexus & Aki make a great share, as usual. You guys are rockers.

  3. Nice stuff as usual.

    Some shameless self-promotion...

    If you like the stuff on the HCE mix, you may enjoy these CD's that me and my brother put out quite awhile back...

    Freect,
    the pic shows some examples of barrows; it comes from an old book about druid (druidic?) antiquities.
