Up just after six and writing this up and acquiring more music I don't really need and giving it a cursory listen...

The views...

A robin spent a goodly amount of time today at the feeding station...

Salmon for breakfast (as it would be for tea)...

Relaxing...

...to the sounds of Concerto Köln...

Later, boxes were retrieved from the attic...

...and Xmas began in earnest...

It was Xmassy outside/inside too, in the porch anyway...

Today, it was -7 degrees...

...but it was sunny...

I was working on a new thing which turned out well...

"The Neu! Variations"...

Three tracks completed in the morning and three in the afternoon...

It involved creating loops from two tracks each from the three Neu! LPs, "Neu!", "Die Zweite Neu"" and "Neu! 75" and combining them with some "Disquietmusik" from me...

By 5, I was listening back...

Then, later, listening back too to "Bartok"...

Both of these will be 2023 CBQ releases I think...

In the evening, Argentina v Croatia - the latter by far the better side, until a penalty to Argentina (idiot pundits said no but ex-referee explained to them why - there's an argument for getting rid of ex players as pundits and only having ex referees); and then, another goal 5 minutes later and it was all over. A third too, in the second half...

And, searching for a new thing, we found "Black List", which, on a visit years ago from Jorg and Ansem, we watched in German, as it was Ansem's favourite show...

We watched the first episode tonight and it was indeed deemed a new thing...

All good...

More new music, that of the Habsburg Empire, acquired pre bed - to be sorted tomorrow...

That was it, I think...

Highlight of the Day : Creating...

Crispycat Latest Release

"I know I produce an awful lot of music, which can make it hard to keep up. But, at the end of each year since 2021, I've produced a tasty compilation ("The Originals") featuring one track from each release. So, every year, if you're only going to buy one CBQ album, make it that one!" "Twentytwentyfour: The Originals" is a 130 minute selection of tracks from the fifteen 2024 releases by Cloudland Blue Quartet. The collection is issued in anticipation of (and includes a track from) the fifteenth and final record of the year, "Twentytwentyfour", a multi disc compilation of rare and previously unreleased recordings made by CBQ throughout 2024, which is due on 31 December.

Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection

In a one-man crusade to encourage the world to broaden its musical horizons, David has been broadcasting a weekly Eclectic Selection of music from across his vast record collection since 2014. On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
