Pause for these new modes of expanding reality. Thanks to @foxydigitalis.bsky.social and friends for bringing these mindful moments to my morning 🙏✨

☮️❤️

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about resistance through art, and creativity in times of crisis. Here’s a few words I wrote on the idea:

I have lived in Minnesota for many years, but for the first time this Winter I’ve purchased a windshield cover for my car. Feels like the self-care I didn’t know I needed 🤗❄️🚫

I’m happy to see Hiram “Solarium Songs” on this great list. Thanks to @tabsout.bsky.social - the realest in the game. ✨🌿🙏

Enjoying this: ‘Divine Music From Jail’. A soulful blend of Tuvan throat singing and button accordion, from incarcerated artist Oidupaa Vladimir Oyun. 🪗✨ ebalunga.bandcamp.com/album/divine...

Letting go of records has somehow pulled me deeper back in, the path is endless. Recently scored a lovely top want: "Spirit Dance". Beautifully unique, and not talked about enough. White's violin is in another dimension. 🌀 #impulse #jazzcollector #vinylnerd

Many thanks to @sun13music.bsky.social for the kind words on Visible Light! ✨🙏 "... could have been a score to a Jane Smiley novel." sun-13.com/2025/12/02/w...

Transcending the stigma of most cover albums, this one feels like an anomaly in Horn's catalog. Released in 1974, after Inside 1 & 2 and his Kashmir work, and before his peak a few years later with Inside the Great Pyramid

I’ve been thinking lately about the personal relationships we build with our record collections. I wrote a few words on sharing space, vinyl collecting, and our physical connection to music.

Your response to Visible Light has been overwhelming. It’s been two months since our debut album has entered the world, and it means so much to see the music reaching people. Thank you for listening. visible-light.bandcamp.com/album/songs-...

I’ve been thinking about landscapes, disappearing sounds, and whats left behind as things erode. Here’s a fresh 50-minute mix exploring these ideas, with a few words on the music. matthewhiram.substack.com/p/stonewashe...

I checked, and I've been subscribed to the Vital Weekly newsletter since early 2008. Frans de Waard consistently reviewed music before anyone else really cared, regardless of name or perceived status. He helped put my own little label on the map, along with many other labels willing to send a copy.

A bountiful wealth of beautiful, strange, and remarkable new music lately! Here's a thread of new releases that demand your attention🧵🪡
