The Listening Club - 13th October 2024

Greetings folks,

Hope you're all good in the hood. Bit of a grey blah week here in Amsterdam, as befits the time of year, so there's not been much doing cept hunkering down and planning future activities, which means... ah, you'll have to wait and see... heh.

During the meanwhilst, @ThatNewSound was in the chair, taking advantage of the situation to share a first listen of Sampha's 2023 album "Lahai", which got the assembled bopping and thinking in equal measures. Thanks extended not only for the pick but also for the frisb fling across to @aqidraco, who's got this to say by way of introduction to tonight's pick...

"I had one artist in mind from the start. Only discovered in the past couple months, they have become a favorite of mine. They just had a new album out and I wanted to listen to that with you all. As it’s probably usual, multiple other possibilities bubbled up that I needed to mull over and listen to the past week. Three of the six, selected themselves out but I got stuck on those other three. Finally Saturday evening I wrote each on a piece of paper and drew, just guess, the one I had wanted to share from the beginning of the process. So, again, just listen to your gut when the music demands to be listened to.

For the ones partaking in the drinking club, I suggest a micro brew of your choice, whiskey or more specific a Bye and Bye. 

Enjoy!

What’s going to be your Halloween costume?"
