Sax Ruins - Yawiquo

More Saxyphone here—with accompaniment this time. This is one of those Yoshida Tatsuya albums, plenty of those around, but this one stood out a bit more to me than most of the others. This is a Ruins spinoff so it's just Yoshida on drums and a sax named Ono Ryoko. There are many overdubs on the sax, which is kind of makes this interesting.

Anthony Braxton - For Alto

Moving jazzward. This is a fun 73 minutes of solo saxophone performances by one of the best. The double LP here has Braxton going all out on his alto saxophone with songs ranging from 20 minuets to 45 seconds and all dedicated to various people, mostly other musicians. Braxton made the recordings in CE 1969 and this came out the following year.

  1. Dedicated to Multi-Instrumentalist Jack Gell
  2. To Composer John Cage
  3. To Artist Murray dePillars
  4. To Pianist Cecil Taylor
  5. Dedicated to Ann and Peter Allen
  6. Dedicated to Susan Axelrod
  7. To My Friend Kenny McKenny
  8. Dedicated to Multi-Instrumentalist Leroy Jenkins

Mega Man X6


No I will not be posting the whole X series, not yet if ever..
So this is where things are at their best. This is CE 2001—no NES or SNES sounds. This almost passes as real music. Definitely the prime as far as song content and all that goes, though I do rather like the soundtrack the first one. . .

Mega Man X

Here we go, back on track. This is a fresh approach. Based not so much on failing or doing not so good, or rehashing, or any such things. X (not to be confused with 10) is for SNES and its sound parameters are based on that hardware setup. Most of the songs hold up rather well (is it from hearing them so many times? They do repeat endlessly), though some more than others (obviously).

Mega Man 7. Mega Man 8, Mega Man 9

Megamen 7, 8, and 9 are here. Overall this is a little less good than the previous installment. 7 being on SNES has more 'realistic' instrument voices. 8 sees a bit more of a fusion orientation and some remixes of previous songs and getting far away from the comforting NES sound by using playstation technologies. This doesn't work out so well really. 9, from CE 2008, is more of a fallback to the NES style, but with a more polished sound. It is the best one of the three, I guess.

The sounds are touched up a bit and lack the feel-good textures of the NES music, but I guess this is okay. Not really prime material though.

No, I have never played any of these games. . .

Mega Man 4, Mega Man 5, Mega Man 6

These are the last three Mega Men for the NES. Still good stuff here, but not as essential. Sound quality has changed little, which is for the best.

Check out Dr. Cossack Stage 2 and Centaur Man.

Tomita Isao (冨田勲) - The Bermuda Triangle














Tomita is pretty legendary among synthysizer peoples. The approach is pretty much take good / decent classical music (Debussy, Mussorgsky, et cetera) and put a late 20th century edge to it. Other people did this too and Tomita wasn't really the first, but his albums are pretty well regarded and fondly remembered.
The Bermuda Triangle has Tomita working some Prokofiev pieces with a little bit of his Sibelius, John Williams, and his own mixed in. Not as straightforward as say Snowflakes are Dancing, his first album, more of an atmospheric quality. Dynamic.
This came in a cool pink or blue vinyl of which I will provide no pictures, though I suppose in the distant future I could, but even thinking of this seems rather pointless, like so many other things.

Jack DeJohnette - Pictures

Jack DeJohnette - Pictures
Jack DeJohnette.
Drummer. American. Jazz guy. Played with a bunch of notable jazzers (Miles Davis; Chick Corea; Keith Jarrett; you know, those kinda guys). He is still alive after more than seventy years in this world.

Pictures.
This is a cassette rip. 1977. A few 'Pictures' Jack made with a little help from his pal John Ambercrombie (Guitars). DeJohnette himself plays the drums as well as piano and organ and is solo on most of the tracks. Things get a bit 'abstract,' but nothing too far out. This comes from the ECM label, which produced some of the best noisy, chaotic, awesome jazz there was during the 70's.
