A strange mix of Mike Oldfield's 'Sentinel' track. An ambient piece. Have this on in the car at the moment. From a 'Best of' compilation. Can't decide whether I like it or not??!!??

…. Moving on from my folk and country odyssey!! I’ve been interested in Robert Reed’s new release, Cursus 123 430 for a while now but there are very few clips available to listen to anywhere so I have bought and downloaded the digital version. Not my favourite format but what can you do? The postal service is even less reliable than usual which is not reliable at all, so it’s not worth buying anything that has to come from outside of the country right now – it would be a miracle if it arrived.
This comes with no frills whatsoever, not even a track listing, or segment listing which I can see in other places. I did, however, get the cover artwork. There’s a symphonic poem attached to the whole thing (which is a concept by Les Penning who also wrote it and narrates it where there is voice), but that doesn’t seem to be included in the download for some reason?? Not sure how I feel about this digital malarky – would far rather have a physical copy, but oh well … needs must! Here’s the symphonic poem (or some of it) which I don’t have - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bA_nJm_O8I4, and this is the only segment from what I do have that I can find on YouTube ...

Not a fan of everything Klaus Schulze does - some of his works can be very repetitive but I like this track - 'My Ty She'

^I have one album of his which is a bit difficult to listen to. He doesn't believe in short tracks does he?! This one is compelling - sounds so seamless and otherworldly. I like it a lot. A real slow burn! Thanks for the post.

You definitely have a way with words. 'Slow burn' is a brilliant description for this music. Cuts to the chase. And I like it a lot as well - have listened to it a number of times over the last few days. Something about it just grabs me.

Breaking myself in on the topic of Electronica with a pair of hugely talented perfectionists, two of my all time favorites.
Emma Hewitt is my #1 female singer-songwriter across all music genre. She has some great live acoustic videos on youtube as well. But this is where I discovered her voice. Serge Devant studied classical music in St Petersburg for 4 years before he moved to NYC to produce Trance/House music. Great move! I think this is "vocal Trance" but do I really care how it's labeled? Absolutely not. 3:55..... My personal theme song ^.^ I'm pretty sure the Booka Shade remix is probably great too but I can never get past this club mix. It's like sacred or something. The last 3.5 minutes are totally the best. 6:53, omg. Motorcycle and me Motorcycle set me free My motorbike don't go too fast Just sets me free Motorcycle and me Motorcycle set me free My motorbike don't go too fast Just sets me free Just you and me Just sets me free Just set me high, hi-i-gh, hi-i-igh, hi-i-igh..... I feel warm inside on my motorcycle The wind is all around, we are free Me..... and my motorcycle We..... we are free You set me high, hi-i-gh, hi-i-igh, hi-i-igh..... You set me high Just set me free, you and me Just set me free, you and me Just set me free, you and me.....

Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells III
Stumbled across the CD in the never ending unpacking and organising, and re-organising - aargh! Haven't listened to this in a long long time - loads of samples from his other works and not a patch on the original and II, but it's still very listenable and there are a couple of memorable tracks, like this one, that I used to play endlessly on the school run because the girls liked it to start their day ...
