I've been using Canterbury Soundwa...Greetings!<br /><br />I've been using Canterbury Soundwaves/Sans Frontières as the soundtrack to my Sunday chores for quite a while now, working my way through from the beginning. I'm not sure what I'll do once I get caught up in a few weeks! First off, thanks for your ongoing work in keeping this going; it's been an education for me.<br /><br />I'd been waiting to come across a Zacht Automaat track here, which I thought would be a natural for you to include. You didn't draw the connection, so I thought I'd mention ZA is basically what emerged from the wreckage of The Battleship, Ethel, who you'd featured a few times. They have a rather large catalogue by now, which is summarized nicely on <a href="https://calicocorp.bandcamp.com/album/zacht-automaat" rel="nofollow">this compilation</a>.<br /><br />If you're ever looking for one of those guest mixes to fill in a middle hour, I'm an <a href="http://mechanicalforestsound.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">ardent observer and archivist</a> of various musics in Toronto and there are lots of things in the CSF vein (from Canterbury-styled widdly-prog to kosmiche to cosmic jazz explorations) that would fit in quite nicely. (To give one taste, here's a <a href="http://mechanicalforestsound.blogspot.ca/2016/03/recording-fake-humans.html" rel="nofollow">superb side excursion</a> from Carl Didur, the keyb genius from Zacht Automaat + The Battleship, Ethel.) Do get in touch if the idea of a mix like this interests you!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Joe<br />Mechanical Forest Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11591173844557539619noreply@blogger.com
