A bit late for this one but glad to find it!
Superb line-up, great choices, more please!

Lord Brett Headset

Thanks - superfly56 set from you this week as well!

Captain XXI

Start a mix with Gil Scott-Heron is always a good idea ! Love it :)

Lord Brett Headset

Thanks Cap'n!

READE!

Really superb selections on this one, and a couple of tracks really grabbed me - I'll have to come back and explore so I can figure out which they were! Thanks for this and all the best -

Lord Brett Headset

Thanks Reade, appreciate your ears.

a perfect mildly caffeinated dreamticket here M.Lord..! just the ticket to mitigate that monday feeling.
excellent curation as usual - african head charge and the astatke / heliocentrics track favourites...
nice one, PπŸ™πŸ˜Š

Lord Brett Headset

Cheers Papa! I love that astatke/heliocentrics track as well - the drumming and the way that the drums are produced, and the snaky serpentine theme...
Might be my favourite track in this set.

papamango

you're welcome & thanks for putting it up...
was shared me a copy of "Γ‰thiopiques 4: Ethio Jazz & Musique Instrumentale 1969-1974" years ago and it's remained an all time (any time) favourite album.
this dreamticket a handy prompt to seek out some other astatke pronto...

Lord Brett Headset

Think a friend burnt me a CD of that at the time as well - is that the one with Yekermo Sew on it?
Need to have a rummage through the shelves...

papamango

had to check, but yep that's the one M'Lord - a lovely collection.

Citizens of Sound

Greetings LBH! Lovely selection. Thoroughly enjoyed listening.

Lord Brett Headset

Ahoy-hoy COS! Thanks for listening.
Must be time for a new set from you soon?

Citizens of Sound

Have done a few sessions for various 'radio' shows which I've reposted but yes, indeed another CoS missive may be due. Thanks for the prompt. I'll get the Committee onto it!

Lord Brett Headset

Checked out your "Horizontal Hour" guest slot in the Marlow FM show yesterday - liked that a lot!

Citizens of Sound

Sorry, missed this - must have given the slowbots a day off! Thanks again for investigating and embarking on the voyage. Much appreciated. Think there is more to come as I feel a sort of arrival or comfort in the set - length, genre, orbit etc., These feelings have been confirmed, underlined and reinforced by various listenings including to yourself and your linkages to Papa Mango's Nibley series 1and Horsefly56. Sometimes the algorithms actually work in your favour! ✌🏽

Oh, almost forgot have you listened to the Malcolm Catto show from Strut: https://www.mixcloud.com/worldwidefm/strut-records-quinton-scott-with-malcolm-catto-19-09-22/
He talks about recording with the Heliocentrics and Mulatu Astatke - illuminating

Lord Brett Headset

Thanks for the heads up on the Catto show. Will def check that out, interested in anything that he's involved in.
Looking forward to more COS shows in the vein of the Marlow FM set, think you're on to something there, it all felt quite organic.
More than happy to be grouped in your head with Papamango, Horsefly56 and yourself - the closest I've come to finding a Mixcloud tribe or niche. You three are always worth a listen.

Lord Brett Headset

Just caught up with your Licorice FM guest slot for Jimmy Jazz - *all gold*

Citizens of Sound

Yo LBH! You do me great honour by listening - very much appreciated, and I'm massively delighted for your enjoyment. I've never been much of a joiner but happy with the mixcloud clan that's evolving - kindred musical spirits. Open minded and experimental - no ego just tunes. Nice! ✌🏽 Since listening to #7 have had the magnificent Daxaar on repeat - thanks for reminding me how good it is πŸ™πŸ½

Lord Brett Headset

Halfway through that Malcolm Catto interview show now. Really interesting - especially the revelations about the Lloyd Miller sessions.

Citizens of Sound

Thought you'd enjoy it. Have not yet finished listening either - must carve out some time to return and see what other nuggets, insights and tunes reveal themselves ✌🏽

willyinatown

Blissfull grooves. Many thanks.

Lord Brett Headset
