Piano Piece for Terry Riley #1 Push the piano up to a wall and put the flat side flush against it. Then continue pushing into the wall. Push as hard as you can. If the piano goes through the wall, keep pushing in the same direction regardless of new obstacles and continue to push as hard as you can whether the piano is stopped against an obstacle or moving. The piece is over when you are too exhausted to push any longer. La Monte Young 2:10 A.M. November 8, 1960

Molasses - A Slow Messe [Full Album] YouTube video by Worldhaspostrock

One of my favourite albums. Unavailable on the usual streaming sites. The packaging of the CD is beautiful. I would love for vinyl reissue of the Molasses back catalogue. The world needs more of this.

January's most listened to artists from last.fm. I've been finding it hard to find time to listen to music recently, nevermind seeking out new things. February is already looking to be filled with metal.

Test pressing for the vinyl version of Wake came through and looks lovely. Still deciding whether to expand it and write a little side b suite or leave it as is.
