This Island Earth
Sunday January 20th, 2019 with PeterB
A deep dive on some FANTASTIC new Indo-Jazz, and related. And a hip-wade on On The Corner Records.

Skip to Tracks
Today's This Island Earth adventure mostly consists of long sets, and long tracks. From all over the map. How we like it! We take a long visit to brand new South Asia driven jazziness, and fusions. Plus a peek at the On The Corner Records label. Other found sounds happen too. PLEASE DO hit us up on the Interactive Thingy (over there ==>). We'd love to hear from you!!

Some Mental-Floss to get things going, and clean out our ears... From Adam Rudolph and co.

It is time to get out your favourite headphones, and make excuses on the things you claimed to be doing…

A deep dive, on some absolutely MIND-BLOWING new Indo-jazz. And, pre-Islamic sounds from now Pakistan too. Very cool.

A loooong set. Big tracks, no yacks. How we like it. Do follow along on the playlist! ;^)

Utstav Lal on now. For a fascinating interview, and more from Indian Classical Music on the Piano, check out David Dalle's show from last Thursday here: https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/105/41210.html

Lovely start to the show! My soundtrack for the afternoon.

Yeah, Indian Classical Music on the Piano is a STUNNER end to end. Don't know how I managed to miss it when released last November. Fixing that problem today.

PeterB (host)
Now moving on to Sarathy Korwar and Upaj Collective / My East Is Your West. Another recent STUNNER!

I love this Bill Laswell production!

PeterB (host)
Glad you are listening in and digging Elorious! Bill Laswell can do no wrong! Are you referring to the Pharoah Sanders track planned at tail end of the playlist? Or was he maybe somehow involved in the Black Classical stuff that just finished playing? (Later seems unlikely, but ya never know. ;^)

Really like Ljova's new album.

PeterB (host)
Hi David. Yeah, really like it also. I will certainly work through the whole thing over time. Or perhaps a full play some time.
