Did gamelan have a thing come up in the western world in the 80s??? Listening to "paradise view" by haruomi hosono and there are so many obviously gamelan-influenced tracks. same with wendy carlos "beauty in the beast"; 80s, gamelan. The residents also got on it but later. But when I first lokoed looked into gamelan, i found an album from the 80s also! I did hear smth about that coming up in prog scenes where people were like "look at this cool weird music i found from indonesia." I wanna know the tea here.

Anyways if you haven't listened to music like this plx plx listen to haromi hosono "paradise view" or "good sport" they're really good. Also you can listen to wendy carlos "beauty in the beast" but i didn't enjoy it as much as haruomi hosono music. And mayb also listen to the residents but only if you wanna hurt. OH and also listen to "swing slow" by haruomi hosono and miharu koshi its really good. "swing slow" started me on the track of being able to appreciate simple songs as something more complex. Then you can also maybe start with miharu koshi solo work, then go to swing slow, and then work your way up to like haruomi hosono in the 80s-90s non-american-sounding-music stuff, and then idk someone really phreaky after that. these are all so great musicians. but I also think that at least "paradise view" would be acccessible to the types who would see my blog as it is a little video-gamey. actually wouldn't you know it, I finished the album and it played for me that one song from chrono trigger. the one that sounds like the album i just finished.

Miharu Koshi & Harry Hosono jr., {1996} Swing Slow

[reckonslepoisson]

Swing Slow, Swing Slow (1996)

Lounge pop for the space age, the duo of Miharu Koshi and Haruomi Hosono on Swing Slow make for surreal listening. Though less catchy and with less of a bite than Koshi’s Hosono-produced Parallelisme, there’s an inescapably gripping retrofuturism to Swing Low that feels like nostalgia in an alternative, even more space-obsessed world. There’s little else like it.

Pick: ‘Western Bolero’
