Still being influenced, if only tangentially, by that Tom Morello list. This album came up on Spotify after The Atlas Underground album ended.

The creative force behind Bright Eyes is not who I would expect to find on a top 5 album list by Tom Morello, but here it is. I really love to hear about the diverse listening habits of people that I am a fan of.

One of the albums on the Tom Morello list mentioned yesterday was an EP by Knife Party.

This artist’s obviously prestigious pedigree pretty much guaranteed the success of her musical career. Her father was sitar legend Ravi Shankar. She is a sitar prodigy who has been performing professionally since she was a child, but beyond this, her compositions are really amazing works.

While searching for more Asian artists for the blog, I discovered these guys. They are a fantastic psych/folk band from the ‘60s with a really cool sound. When music from that era is discussed, it is usually in reference to American or European artists, but this one made me want to check out more musicContinue reading “#508 – Harench by The Folk Crusaders”

No idea where this selection came from, but I really enjoyed it.
