KPM Recorded Library – ‘Predictions Part One’

kpm

“Exciting and creative compositions combining elements of the past present and future recorded in both natural and studio acoustics.”

I couldn’t find this to listen to anywhere else on the internet so here you go. Descriptions of the tracks range from ‘Pulsating bass underlay with distant brass and effects’ toHypercharge Exhilarating optimistic action sequence with synthesizer lead’ and ‘descriptive of great expanse.’ I’m sure you get the idea. Pitchfork gave a brief overview of what KPM Recorded Library is all about here.

Right, it’s Sunday. The weekend has come grinding to a halt. A lot of dancing was done this weekend. I had the pleasure of witnessing Hercules & Love Affair with Horse Meat Disco on Friday and Genius of Time on Saturday. All in all the standard of music was high and the resultant Sunday feeling was low.

Here’s a track from Christopher Cross that makes me feel better…
