Utility Fog

Sunday, 19th of January, 2014

Tonight, we started with two tracks from the up-and-coming album from Javanese experimental punk/folk group Senyawa, being funded by pre-ordered in this support the Pozible.
Then, two seminal postrock bands in their own worlds have new albums out: Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Mogwai, both essentially just "more of the same" but really not bad at all. I dropped in a Hood remix of Mogwai there and we have lots more Hood-related later on.
In the meantime, Seattle area duo Cock & Swan have a second batch of remixes coming out soon on Hush Hush, and we heard a few of those along with two of their originals and their magnificent remix of Benoît Pioulard, forthcoming on the one & only Lost Tribe Sound.
Hood-related, we heard Richard Adams' The Declining Winter, and then a big batch of The Remote Viewer, including one short piece by their earlier incarnation The Famous Boyfriend. Both members were part of Hood in the early days, and they ran the always amazing and much-lamented Moteer for some years. Now one half, Andrew Johnson, is releasing his first(!) solo effort as a new line (related), and it's as mystery-filled and beautiful as ever.
I also dropped in one track from On Fell, the short-lived (for now) collaboration between Andrew and Chris Adams, aka Hood vocalist/producer/genius aka Bracken etc.
