i prefer them to trumpets



big reason why i don't give a shit about Miles Davis outside some of the electric albums and a few of his early 60s records

His live stuff like Live Evil and Dark Magus is fantastic, but it's not stuff I listen to on the regular.

Schoenberg, as done by the LaSalle Quartet? Very unknown 'round these parts, bet you never even heard of the guy

I'm enjoying it, although the freak folk influence was pretty exaggerated, of course by the shitters at rym

For an album that's 63 minutes, it flows very nicely too

gives me a neil young vibe one minute, then goes in an entirely different direction...like comus, maybe? I can't really pin it down to one or two artists/bands, so that's a very good thing imo. Leaves me with less referential BS when the time comes to write about it.

this album's discourse could not have died entirely in 2017 with just Frippertronics going back and forth to themselves



needs more love and bumps for sure

Sending love in the form of a mild bump down but easily the audio equivalent of the best French New Wave

i also feel like this is Fontaine slightly trolling her contemporaries



like she is deliberately plugging French music in America in the most challenging and difficult to wrap your head around way

i'll give you this, i do not come back to this as much, i rather appreciate it from afar.



her collab with Areski Belkacem is probably my most-spinned Fontaine record
