Photo by Jessica Gratigny

Immaterial Possession puts the viscerality of bass-driven rock, the hypnotic drone of East European folk and the dippy energy of art punk into a blender lets it whirr.  The Athens, Georgia band—comprised of Cooper Holmes, Madeline Polites, John Spiegel and Elephant 6 scion Kiran Fernandes—met at an arts commune.  Their self-titled debut came out in 2020, and the follow-up, Mercy of the Crane Folk, this year. Reviewing it, Jennifer Kelly noted that, “If you’ve ever wondered what the B-52s might sound like on a serious Incredible String Band bender, well, possibly a lot like Mercy of the Crane Folk.”

Selda “Gitme”

Selda is the queen, a 1970s Turkish songwriter, political activist and cultural icon. This song has such great energy. You immediately blast off on the Turkish spaceship to the cosmic love song.. the desperation in Selda's powerful voice steers you.  (Madeline)

The Stranglers, “Hanging Around”

Love this track and whole record Rattus Norvegicus for its up-front, guttural driving bass lines and menacing vocals. The keyboard runs ascending into the air counter the low earthiness. The record cover is also a perfect fit for the music, classy yet dingy, calm but aggressive, mysterious but mundane. (Cooper)

Isaan style street music from Bangkok 

Isaan music from Northeastern Thailand is some of the coolest music ever.. it's got the perfect blend of psychedelia, folk, improvisation, and party rhythm. And it's for all occasions. (Madeline)

The players are effortlessly cool too. Almost anything we find in this genre gets us going. (Cooper)

Bizunesh Bekele, “Debdabe Lakibign”

This video is one of my favorite tracks lately. I love the shuffle beat with the overdriven krar, a six-stringed harp, and the sweet synth licks mixed with the vocal. (Kiran Fernandes)

Hany Mehannah, “Shahr Al Assal”

Super groovy 1970s Egyptian music, scored for film. This is one of my faves from Hany Mehanna, a wonderful composer and keyboardist. His flourishing expressiveness of the Farfisa organ is a great influence on my organ playing in Immaterial. (Kiran)

The B52s, “Give Me Back My Man”

A big favorite from the B-52s catalogue. Cindy Wilson's vocals are so raw and glorious.. her swing from chill to scream is a cathartic explosion. And the beat and bass line is everlasting in electric spirit.  I listen to this one when I need a jump. It’s also a favorite karaoke number. (Madeline)

Buffy Sainte-Marie, “God Is Alive Magick Is Afoot”

A friend shared this with us after one of our shows. Buffy Sainte-Marie is a radical badass woman. It's “experimental” (as implied by a traditional pop sense) in the way that you are partaking in her hypnotic spell work. Just found out Leonard Cohen wrote the lyrics. That explains my gravitation to this one; Cohen is a favorite lyricist. (Madeline)

Barış Manço, “Dere Boyu Kavaklar”

Another groovy 1970s Turkish funk master. That mustache is its own instrument. I sit patiently, although in starving anticipation, for that delicious lead riff.. for that, we'll go to wherever he's luring us..(Madeline)

Aphrodites Child, “End of the World”

A 1968 Grecian epic banger. Appropriately, in the Greek mythological tradition, it's both deeply romantic and ominous in nature. Very incredible, shapeshifting vocals. Sometimes the visions of the werewolf come into my head with this one. Other times, it just feels like an apocalyptic fury of love. You could probably use this song as an easy Rorschach-ian test to see what's going on in your brain today. (Madeline)

The Bats, “Smoking Her Wings”

A friend put this on a mix tape. I love this sweet song! A driving tune with a perfectly soft and floating nostalgic melody. When I listen, I feel like I am falling in love in the summer of 1987 and want to cry over something yet I know not exactly what. (Madeline)

Velly Joonas, “Stopp, Seisku Aeg!”

A 1970s Estonian songwriter and artist. This funkadelic, melancholic, song has got a viola(?) line that cuts through like you're swimming up to the shimmering surface of the Baltic sea to take a breath. I love the rhythm in the vocal lines. I've listened to this song on repeat many times. Thank you Velly! (Madeline)

[deliriousmonk]

5. I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Marvin Gaye

7. Nassam Alayna El Hawa - Fairuz (first Fairuz song posted on this account... about time)

Day One Thousand One Hundred and Ninety One

Too siis mulle päev, kus kõik hetked säraksid. Kingi mulle naer, vikerkaartes sulaksin.

A-T-3 088 Velly Joonas ‎- Stopp, Seisku Aeg! 

I'm about to write about YouTube and this seemed to be floating about in my algorithmically picked 'recommended' list for aeons

Velly Joonas ‎- Stopp, Seisku Aeg! is a cover of Jim Rafferty's I See Red which was first recorded by Frida (A-T-2 081). Clannad also had a minor hit with their cover of the song in 1983

Estonian Velly Joonas's version was recorded in 1983 but not released until 2015. I was just reading about nostalgia for the future in relationship to Japanese 'City Pop' and they other video that hung around YouTube recommendations Last Love. I wonder if this is a fantasy about the promise of a socialist future past and the current state of capitalist realism?

ESTONIAN SONG RECOMMENDATIONS 🇪🇪✨🕶️ -1970s, 80s-

with tiny reviews from me, hehe

side note: I have no relation with this country, no friends/family from there. I'm currently going through a weird nordic culture & geography hyperfixation, accept this. hahah

^ the title means "north, south, east, west" which only lets us assume what the song's meaning is about... this one's intro has a slightly vdgg-ish sound (similar to their aerosol grey sound 💅🏻) then it turns into a climax which finally reveals as a prog finale with soft nuances (9/10)

^ oh I love this one, a magical storytelling tribute to the (Hindenburg?) zeppelin incident. Opens with a German rhyme about uhm... Graf von Zeppelin, a break separates it from the rest of this song. What you then hear is a typical 60s dreamy psychedelic rhythm that takes you into its own ban, with changes and breaks it's finally develops into the perfect desaster. The zeppelin destroys & kills. Hidden boyish rebellion follows. In the very end the situation calmed down, the psychedelic mist returns & fills the air again

(9/10 with bonus points for the singer's "zeppelin zeppelin awrwrerwrgszwgbbrbbrbrbr screams" check it out)

^ resistance against whatever the challenges of the late 70s-80s ESSR were: breaking out. A 180° degree change from the previous songs, complete different musical style, punk, the anger more obvious, the "Eesti" influences obvious as well. Unpopular opinion: the song gives off Leningrad Cowboys flair, ok make up your own scenario. x (6/10)

^ another whole different genre. I really enjoy the warmth of the sound, the feeling that you're part of the party (don't tell me I'm the only one who hears this :D) City pop vibe, not a glimpse of the communistic troubles. Though the song & all others from this compilation [GROOVE of ESSR] didn't age well!! (5/10)

more recs splashed into this post because yeah

Ornament -70s proto metal-

Gunnar Graps -Eesti Iron Maiden hahah not really-

Velly Joonas -eastern funk-

that's by far not everything, but thanks for reading, yooo

The AM: February 6 and 20, 2023

Looks like I was so excited about taking Feb. 13 off that I completely neglected to post the Feb. 6 episode. Here’s streaming links for today and the 6th — double your listening for a holiday Monday.

Feb. 6: An 8:30 Throwback to a transitionary period for Sly Stone, in an episode that spans from Sly's subdued grooves to New Order ar the poppiest, classic shoegaze, dreamy omnichords from Lael Neale, Twilight Zone and Night of the Living Dead-sampling electronics, and other offbeat easy listening for the first Monday of February.

Listen on Soundcloud

Stream on CJSW

Feb. 20: A mid-episode throwback to Tony Allen inspires an extended jazz and afrobeat interlude in the show's second hour—consider it a warm-blooded antidote to the frozen landscape on this Family Day morning. Beyond that, it's your usual AM mix of ambient sounds, off-kilter pop, and occasionally explosive shoegaze, all calibrated to wake you up properly on a holiday Monday.

Velly Joonas :: Stopp, Seisku Aeg!

An enigmatic figure in Estonian music, Velly Joonas is a diverse and prolific audiovisual artist who has worked within many mediums, including painting, poetry, and a surprisingly diverse set of musical genres. “Stopp, Seisku Aeg!” was recorded as a demo for the amateur band Vstretša to support a performance permit application as an example of what they would play. Joonas suggested covering “I See Red!” by Anni-Frid Lyngstad of ABBA, rewriting the lyrics herself in Estonian for Vstretša’s version. The result is a funky, soulful jam, blending synths, strings, and Joonas’s ethereal voice into a groove that far eclipses the original.
