Favoriting The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from June 20, 2024 Favoriting

DJ Peter's avatar View DJ Peter's profile Favoriting

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

generally digging these dutch outings and find the definition of jazz to be quite generous, and something to ponder maybe is that all these artists are gov't funded probably
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:26pm
tom tom the pipers son:

in the visual arts the generosity of the dutch gov't led/leads to mixed results. i saw one artist slap an idea together at last minute before meeting for funding
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:27pm
DJ Peter:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:26
Yikes
i mean having health care is as good as funding... (will check Kevin Whitehead's New Dutch Swing book to see if he talks about government support)

Yup that's the one. Legacy can be hard. Maybe she embraced it when she joined that chamber ensemble. She played shakuhachi and percussion.
