Let's cut to the chase. We've got ten of my favourite tunes of 2021 for you - five today, five tomorrow - plus five videos each day from other folks I've enjoyed this year. Simple as that.
We'll kick things off with a track that was only officially released on Christmas Eve, although we surfers of the zeitgeist have been grooving to it for a while now. Take it away, Mr Oho.
"Doose Mam" - Alogte Oho & His Sounds of Joy (single)
"Yale St & 45" - Beth Lee (from "Waiting On You Tonight")
"Kalikandjari" Monsieur Doumani (from "Pissourin")
"Hardlytown" - Hiss Golden Messenger (from "Quietly Blowing It")
"Tihoussay Tenere" - Dag Tenere (from "Iswat")
I inadvertently played the Natalie Jane Hill and the Shaking Chains videos at the same time. The outcome was not pleasing to my ears
ReplyDeleteI am in awe of your commitment to experimentation
DeleteAll very good, but a special mention for Doose Mam and Tihoussay Tenere. Very, very good indeed!
ReplyDeleteA fine selection of tunes, only one of which (Hiss Golden Messenger) I'm familiar with. I really enjoyed Alogte Oho, Dag Tenere and particularly Natalie Jane Hill, whose album I'm streaming on Bandcamp as I type.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year!
