What are you listening to?

Melody Gardot - Live at Au Chateau d'Herouville, a French Chateu, in 2018.


It's great that it's jazzy without getting too carried away with the jazziness and being just for show, bluesy without getting too depressing, and Latin-y while still remaining subtle and not becoming overly upbeat and exuberant. There are classical elements in it too. It's a good balance OSIT.

It's simple and minimalistic, and great 'getting ready' or 'working to' music accompanied by Melody's angelic voice.

Here again Lola Flores reciting some poems of Federico Garcia Lorca, the great Spanish poet.

I am not a fan of Lola Flores but looking at her I feel that she is representative of something that in this new reality will be totally absent: not just because she expresses passion, pain, joy, and other emotions, but because she is part of a culture, she is of gypsy tradition with all their music and art. All of this will disappear little by little,like smoke, like a breeze.

 
Aphex Twin is one of the most original artists I know. He released LOTS of music in many different styles, and sometimes it's unbelievable how diverse his music can be (always instrumental though, as far as I know). I have a few tracks I like to listen to while driving, these ones help me stopping the inner monolog like very few do.

This one reminds me of a Miyazaki movie


I wrote a poem listening to this one
 
If you have ever searched for a style of music called Ambient, then at some point you will have come across Robert Rich (Website, Bandcamp), one of the giants of the genre. Besides his music, he is famous for his "sleep concerts" where he plays music live all night while the audience sleeps. :zzz: Here is his longest recording "Perpetual" the sequel to "Somnium". It's 8 hours of deep ambient.
(Unfortunately it's low quality. You can hear a higher quality version (for free) on his website or Bandcamp links.)
