Album cover of Tsuki by Kin Gajo, with artwork by Moon and design by Benoit Vangeel, depicts a haunting black-and-white illustration of an astronaut’s helmet floating in space, its visor reflecting a surreal, organic mass resembling coral or neural tissue. The stark linework and cosmic setting evoke isolation, introspection, and the fusion of human emotion with mechanical void mirroring the trio’s electro-acoustic jazz that blends accordion warmth with synthetic textures. The title “Tsuki” (moon) aligns with the celestial theme, suggesting cycles of awakening and farewell as heard in tracks like “Tsuki, The Awakening” and “Farewell Taiyo.” The image functions as a metaphor for inner exploration the mind adrift in sound, memory, and rhythm.

Released today 9 years ago:
🇬🇧 Depeche Mode "Spirit" – 2017
A politically charged and sonically stripped-back album that leans into a raw, analog-driven electronic sound.
Themes of societal unrest, power structures, and disillusionment run throughout, with Dave Gahan delivering a more forceful and direct vocal performance..

Yesterday I had Cerrone. Today I have Soccio. From the Montreal disco and electronic scene in the 70s and 80s. He started making electronic music as Kebekelectrik (Quebec electric, but with K to hint at Kraftwerk).
His big disco hit was Dancer, but he also did the remarkable song "Les Visiteurs" (also released in English as "The visitors" ) which got good airplay in Montreal.
Gino Soccio "Face to face" #vinyl #album on RFC records, 1982. Remember is a standout track. #disco #electronic #music

Released today 40 years ago:
🇬🇧 Depeche Mode "Black Celebration" – 1986
The album is built on dense layers of synthesizers, sampled textures, and deep, resonant basslines, creating an atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive with shadowy melodies and restrained arrangements supporting Dave Gahan’s controlled vocal delivery.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Cut Me Deep (A Story Of Indie Pop 1985-1989)
2024 UK 4xCD Box Set
THIS was something I just couldn’t pass up.
There were just too many amazing artists and too many great songs to not buy it.
Each CD has over 70 mins. of music on it, and it’s the kind of thing where you can just pick ANY of the four, let it play from the beginning, and be completely happy.
It really is an embarrassment of #80s indie pop riches.
I’ll let you read the tracklist on your own to see what I’m talking about.
This might be my favorite thing I’ve bought all year.
Which is wild, because it’s CDs!

MERCURY REV
Deserter's Songs
2018 U.S. reissue
A perfect album for quiet, chilly Monday afternoon.
An absolute musical masterpiece and one of the finest albums of the #90s .
It’s still the only Mercury Rev album I need. Whenever I hear ANYTHING else by them playing, my immediate thought is “Why isn’t Deserter’s Songs on?”.
When I first bought this on CD in ‘98, it was the first album I had become completely immersed in and obsessed with since Radiohead’s OK COMPUTER, which came out in May of 1997.
For the following 16 months, most everything else I heard came of banal and underwhelming.
Until Deserter’s Songs arrived in September of ‘98.
Just a beautiful, inspirational and timeless sounding record made for a day like I’m having today.
