For a long time, embeddable players from the website Bandcamp didn’t function on this website. I couldn’t figure out why, but my friend who helps me on the back end sorted it out this afternoon. It’s a relief, because while I trust people may click through to Bandcamp to listen, it’s a lot easier if the music is right here on this website as you read. To celebrate, here are three recent favorites of mine, along with the embeds, though click through to read more:
▰ Kenneth James Gibson (synthesizers, arrangements) and Paul Carman (saxophone) teamed up for Murals for Immersion, an ambient record that made me think about the difference, metaphorically, between “wallpaper” music and “mural” music:

More Bandcamp goodness to come. It’s a relief to have this sorted out.
Also as of this afternoon: the site is a lot faster (especially for me when I’m in editing mode) and the automated scheduling of posts appears to be fixed (we’ll know tomorrow if the Disquiet Junto project goes out on time).
