Simon Posford is an electronic music genius. If you haven't heard his other projects, you need to. Hallucinogen and Younger Brother are essentials...the Dub Trees is his more chill/experimental side. This is my favorite jazz record. It's the album that finally got me to "click" with jazz and kick started a huge personal jazz phase.

All this talk about jazz reminded me how much I loved this album:
Fourth (1971) by Soft Machine Soft Machine is one of my favorite prog rock bands of all time (ranking with Henry Cow, Spirit, and Gentle Giant). Fourth, however, is much more jazz-oriented than their three previous albums. Even though this release dropped most (if not all) of the progressive rock elements that we all attribute with the Canterbury scene, this is still a fantastic jazz album. |

To Jack Pat, i've been meaning to check out Soft Machine as well as Tangerine Dream. I've overcome my punk snob attitude towards prog and have discovered a couple of great albums in the form of Familys Music In a Dolls House and the first Crimson album. I still can't stand Tull, Yes and Floyd though.

I've been listening to a lot of Aphex Twin latley Aphex Twin - Drukqs Really good, the mix of acid house and experimental tracks are really all over the board here. I'm really digging the variety. |

^I kind of love that album cover. It reminds me of Wheres Waldo for some reason.
Separation - Balance and Composure Absolutely amazing, without a doubt my favorite of the year so far, and becoming one of my favorites in general. It's such a heartbreaking album but it's defining a really good time in my life that I'm in right now, and it's a really strange feeling. It makes me feel all nostalgic and fuzzy even though I got it about 10 days ago. |
