Whole album was great, but their cover of one of my favorite Bond themes, “Tomorrow Never Dies,” was a wonderful surprise.
NALDJORLAK – Éliane Radigue
Two+ hours of Radigue-meets-solo-cello brilliance: heavy rotation, to be sure.
I WAS TOO YOUNG TO HEAR SILENCE – Patrick Shiroishi
Saxophone (+ glockenspiel) in a parking garage should not be this stunning but I can’t stop obsessing over the magic Shiroishi creates here. Makes me think of what Sonny Rollins's days of woodshedding on the Williamsburg Bridge must have sounded like:
THE 80'Z – UZC
While my brilliant hermano didn't succeed in making me love 80's music (he’s brilliant, not a miracle worker), he did succeed, WILDLY, in making me love his take on 80's music: the most fun 23 minutes you'll have with an album this week.
