I don't know what to upload, so I'm taking requests. Doesn't need to be something specific, maybe just name a genre or a style or an instrument or a mood, and I'll see what I can do.
For the moment being, I'll just upload what I'm listening to at the moment.
Fred Frith - Gravity, 1980 (320kbps)
How to describe this album, or indeed anything Frith's ever done? It's not Avant-Rock, not R.I.O., not noise rock, not tape experiments nor guitar solos; it's not Hungarian folklore nor contemporary chamber music. It's everything I just said and then some. Every single track is an amalgam of such disparate elements, but arranged in such a clever, beautiful way that you won't notice anything weird until you try to recollect exactly what went through your ears. This is Frith's third solo effort, although since his first two albums were guitar solos (and the second was kind of a four-way split), I consider this to be his first proper album. If you've ever heard of Henry Cow, Art Bears or anything related to R.I.O., and it has piqued your interest, then really you have no excuse not to listen to this. It's not just avantgarde and experimental to the point of ridiculousness, it's also fun, catchy, varied and more importantly very, very cohesive.
I just-- I just love Fred Frith, dudes.
