Moby covers a song by Cream, and it’s not one of the big ones. He takes a haunting track from Disraeli Gears and turns it slowcore. We’ll also hear something from Beautiful Chorus.
We’ll hear music from Opium Moon. This Grammy-winning world fusion band featuring violinist Lili Hayden has a new album of seductive middle eastern sounds called Where We Are Gathered.
Brannan Lane, John Gregorius and Sean O’Bryan Smith come from different musical worlds – from deep country and western to deep ambience. But they’ve gotten together for an album called Emergence.
Balmorhea talk about their music which has moved from ambient country into a more classically refined sound. Their latest album, Pendant World, is on the classical Deutsche Grammophon Label.
We set the controls for the heart of infinity when English electronic artist Ian Boddy comes in to play live. Sitting in a cockpit of synthesizers he sends us deep into space.
Oboist Russel Walder talks about his new album, Speak to the Storm. It’s a deep world fusion journey, spiked by sampled Middle Eastern and Indian instruments, percussion and voices.
Kevin Keller talks about his album Evensong. It is partly based on the chants and hymns of 12th century Abbess Hildegard von Bingen. Kevin brings these gothic sounds into the 21st century.
Enter the monastery with Kevin Keller’s November CD of the Month. It’s called Evensong and it is centered around chants from the Medieval Abbess, Hildegard von Bingen.
Echoes brings you downtempo bossa nova when we hear new music from Eric Hilton and Natalia Clavier of Thievery Corporation. Their album Corazon Kintsugi taps their sultry Latin side.
Russel Walder’s Speak to the Storm leads the Echoes Top 25 for September, followed by Kevin Keller, Opium Moon, Erik Wollo, Mark Dwane, and 20 more great albums.
