Brian Eno, followed by Klangwelt, Delay Tactics, David Vito Gregoli & Ricky Kej, Ian Boddy, and 20 more great artists are featured in the Echoes Top 25 for November.
Music by Karmacoda, a band out of San Francisco. They’re tapping that old Trip-hop sound on their new album Lessons in Time. We’ll also hear from Aukai’s new album called Apricity.
Hear seasonal sounds off the beaten reindeer path with winter-themed selections from artists new and old, including Loreena McKennitt’s December CD of the Month, Under a Winter’s Moon.
We talk with Airport People: not weary airline travelers, but ambient chamber music artist Leon Todd Johnson. He has an album of creaky-piano-centered compositions called From Nine Mornings.
Christmas comes early with the December CD of the Month, Loreena McKennitt’s Under a Winter’s Moon. Loreena merges reading from A Child’s Christmas in Wales with songs from the season.
On a Slow Flow Echoes, ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro teams up with slide guitarist Sonny Landreth and we’ll hear some deep ambient guitar by Jonas Munk, who records as Manual.
New music by Olafur Arnalds – kind of. The Icelandic composer has gathered a bevy of other musicians to reinterpret the songs from his album, Some Kind of Peace, on piano.
Daniel Lanois is the famed producer of U2, collaborator with Brian Eno, and a musician who is usually found behind a guitar or a pedal steel guitar. But now he has an album of ambient piano works.
We’ll hear a new collaboration between string player and electronic artist Rena Jones with electronic artist Kilo Watts and we’ll hear Jean-Michel Jarre remixed by Brian Eno.
