Apparently it’s “let’s listen to Liz Harris’ non-GROUPER named albums” week.
Her latest under the name NIVHEK (really good... feels like a milestone in her career) https://grouper.bandcamp.com/album/afte ... -the-house

The shoe gaze dream pop album that came out in 2015 that I ignored and now love. Under the name HELEN https://grouper.bandcamp.com/album/the-original-faces

it's a party!

I just burned it to a CD and am listening again on my drive... the party doesn't stop!

This is an odd one. I just finished ILF's own Blackened Soul's latest release and, even though they are not 'sonically' similar, it kind of reminded me of this oddity. Mauricio Kagel 'Tactil'. The whole album is good. Interesting to read about too, conceptually. I prefer this piece/side though.

Dandolin... I've listened to that album like 6 times this weekend. THE SOUND are, kind of like MAMALEEK for you, my "where have you been all my life?" band. THANK YOU! You had me at 'not gotten post-punk classic' and I was not disappointed. I have a couple of singles (not full LPs) for you coming up!

EDIT, for Dandolin and other post-punk fanatics (special call out to fans of JAMES CHANCE & THE CONTORTIONS)!!!
This all came from the same DJ Set (http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/86825), I randomly put on one night (I usually listen to CDs in the car... if I listen to radio in the car, it's always WFMU).

The first track that I heard when I put the set on, I could not find on youtube, so if you click the link above, start with

MEDIUM MEDIUM - So Hungry So Angry

NSFW: show

THE HIGSONS - 'It Goes Waap' (this is the 7inch which is slightly different than the one played in the DJ Set [the set played, the 12inch]).

NSFW: show

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSF9CDCwKXs
THE VISIBLE TARGETS - 'Candid Affection' -> If you like this one, you will probably like some Brazilian Post-Punk I posted ages ago (I would be more than happy to re-post here if you are interested )

NSFW: show

Then they played INSTITUTE. They're a newer band. I personally have enjoyed every release they've had (they're on Sacred Bones which is just a given for me).

Woot woot wootenanny!
So Hungry So Angry has been my jam 4evah Big Higsons head too and of course JC/Contortions too

The Visible Targets I have whiffed on (me culpa mea culpa) - really enjoying the sparse angularity of course, and some very fine guitarings all around including supa tasty use of period highlight fx

Off to listen to Institute & make a playlist woohoo!

Oh--also--you know the other great so-nice-they-named-it-twice skeletal groove band of '81ish Liquid Liquid? (of course you do )

One of my favorite Medium Mediums:


Also I miss FMU
