this has reminded me of one of the world’s many seriously beautiful places, the Okavango Delta

This was incredible last year:

Big crowd of 10,000 people, huge Palestinian flags waving, thumping techno with arabic samples.
It was directly after this perfect house and disco set:

What a weekend...
No worries! Hope you find something in there that really hits.
Body Maintenance mentioned!
Some other favs of mine from the 2017-19 scene: No Sister, Bitumen, Constant Mongrel, Primo!, EXEK, Nun, UBIK, GAUCI, Vertigo, Parsnip, HEXDEBT, HTRK and Spike Fuck.
I've since gravitated toward the dance music (read: Milo Eastwood extended universe) side of the PBS/RRR equation, so unfortunately no longer know what's up with punk locally...
Three songs from the 70's which I adore:
Ahmad Jamal Trio - I Love Music --------- (spot the sample in a classic 90s hiphop track)
Herbie Hancock - Watermelon Man --------- (I've got a ticket to see Herbie later this year, can't believe it)
Idris Muhammad - Could Heaven Ever Be Like This --------- (Just such a huge huge huge track, sitting in a jazz-funk-disco nexus in '77, seriously actually listen to this)
Very nice; approaching the upper limit of ~20,000km
Would be fun if they included the moon and a rough valuation of all returned lunar samples

It's the linguistic diversity for me
And when he comes out of his hole he sounds something like this
Banks' style is so satisfyingly recognisable here
Where is the Saddam Hussein kept??
I went over to fix my grandparent's email recently, and what struck me was how chill and fun of a time I had with what would otherwise be a bothersome chore, because it was socially embedded work.
On my own, annoying tech shit heads toward the sentiment of your comment, because I'm just in a feedback loop of garbage stimuli and futility, and it can ruin my day with stress. But I can wade through all of that no problem if I'm tethered to others, I'd even be happy about it.
So idk, I guess yeah capital puts us in cages of various sorts, real, digital and mental. Dismantling that is an obscene nightmare on our own. You could edit every registry in the world and change nothing, people would generate the same problems again, because nothing changed socially. We can't build socialism by ourselves, it has to be a fun thing you do with your friends for a laugh, because that's what makes the work tolerable for most people, and we need most people.
Would love to scream and throw bottle with you comrade, sounds dope
Good job!
Hate to be a pedant but there's a correction you'll want to make in the Proteins section:
While it's true that there are 9 essential amino acids, there are more than 13 amino acids in total.
There are 22 'proteinogenic' amino acids encoded by the genomes of known organisms, over 140 amino acids found naturally in various proteins, and thousands more than can be created in a lab. Of these, humans use 20.
Louvin Brothers energy
nice nice, makes me wanna re-engage with my city's punk scene, so many fun gigs pre-covid.
Jimmy Cauty of KLF also did some cool shit with Alex Paterson as 'The Orb'.
Their album 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld' worth a listen if you enjoy ambient psychedelia (as is KLF's 'Chill Out' for that matter).
Come get your mojo hey
Come back fat as a rat
All the way down the east coast
This is not what the KLF is about
This is as wrong as a take ever has been. More novel, vibrant, gorgeous, complex and engaging music is being produced today than at any time in history.
Banal, commercial pop music was inescapable throughout all decades of the last century. The classics of bygone eras are remembered in finite lists only as the uncountable middling efforts of thousands of shit acts fade from view. This is true of all art and media.
If you want to find current music that speaks to you, put in the effort. I mean that in an encouraging sense really, and don't want to dismiss your post out of hand.
In | that | spirit | of | encouragement | and | discovery | here | are | 31 | releases | from | the | last | decade | covering | a | wide | range | of | genres | many | of | which | have | enjoyed | critical | acclaim | and | commercial | success.
