Demdike Stare Live in Budapest
Demdike Stare is one of my favorite new (to me at least) electronic music groups that I first heard last year, during which they released two full length albums (Liberation Through Hearing and Voices of Dust) along with an EP (Forest of Evil) - all of which has just been compiled with an additional hour of music (over 3 hours total!) as Triptych. They’re from outside Manchester and create spooky almost-ambient music (which I’ve seen called “hauntological”), relying heavily on samples of records from India and the Middle East. Anyway, I love it, and here’s a live set they did last year in Budapest.
It’s a drink to help you use Facebook, apparently. Because I know that after I spend a few hours on Facebook, I really need to replace some electrolytes.

I just discovered the website Letters of Note, which is from where the above came. A lot of really interesting letters, some very touching, some, like the above, which comes from a total of over 30 memos from this company, all saying similar things, almost seem like a parodies. Letters of Note seems like a place that could waste a lot of my time, though.

Not only is this a cool album cover, but it’s a fantastic album - My favorite thing both bands have done, in my opinion.
It’s not a horse playing a saxophone, but it’ll do.
