What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2016
2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;
Delta Goodrem, Wings of the Wild, first listen to her new album and it's good enough to get several further listens I suspect. First half is a bit poppy but some very promising track once you get passed that.
Music for guests to be arriving, something easy on the ear which won't overtake any conversation:

All Bert's fault that I had to pull this out and play it.
Good choice...
The opening track is possibly my favourite of Dexters.

Their best studio album but I've not heard it in 24/96...
Just bedding in my new Rega Plana 3 and this RSD 2015 re-release is a lot of fun

Sounds good - while I haven't done a A-B to the CD version and I am also not blown away by sound quality...

Piano duo, husband and wife, Alexei Kuznetsoff and Valentina Lisitsa. An early (1998) direct to disc recording on Audiofon.

Keane - Perfect Symmetry
Geeing me up for some writing I'm doing for work.

I fancied some melancholy heavy rock so crossed over to Tidal for this one. They are labelled as Doom and Gothic Metal merchants but I think there is more to their music than that.

Back to these guys again, down home blues.
Bugge Wesseltoft - <Moving>. On Tidal. Moving, is fast becoming one of my favorite albums, and is currently giving the ATC SCM40's a severe kicking, which they are enjoying immensely. Must add this one to the PRaT thread.


Ultra chilled, hypnotic Argentinian dub...............if that makes sense!
