I actually listened to a bit of Seventh Tree and Felt Mountain yesterday evening. Utopia and Lovely Head will never tire. So cinematic and soaring in all directions. Cologne Cerrone Houdini is another great song.
But my new found love is Melancholy Sky. I've listened to it before but really like it now. And Yellow Halo too. Strangely im at peace when i listen to these songs. Escapism through music. x
I'm totally stressed out by the sheer amount of (good) music getting releases each week, being instantly available on Spotify and the like for our streaming pleasures.
Which is never a bad thing, that much new good music actually. But also, in a way, it is very uncomfortable and frustrating to listen to music in a kinda stressed/forced way, in order to keep up with all the releases, just skipping through albums to get a chance of listening to every new interesting one.
It kind of makes music less enjoyable, at least for me. I personally listen to a lot less music in the end than before. Sad thing.
However, this is something I discovered which I can not more than highly recommend:
Personal favourite of the moment: Tchaikovsky Waltz of the Flowers. Just glorious and divine.
Karl Jenkins- Pelladio
Gustav Holst- The Planets (Mars Bringer of War)
A very powerful piece of classical music that encapsulates the fierceness and strength of the planet. I just love the entire concept and was played to death at my primary school by a rather eccentric music teacher who we fondly referred to as Mr Rooster (Rossiter). He played with such force he broke the pedals once!
