I didn't discover this today, but it's my most prominent discovery recently: The Nonesuch Explorer Series. Lots of great authentic folk (or "world" if you insist) musics easily available (it's all on iTunes):

Just discovered SORNE.
Best I can describe is a tribal/avant feel.  Layers of vocals ontop of a sparse use of found and homemade instruments.
Think I might go see them live tonight!

EDIT: here's a vid too

Just discovered Valentin Stip (or, at least, his upcoming album). Mesmerizing stuff and, while I haven't listened to all of it, I foresee it making my top 10 for this year. Check it out:

Don Cherry I don't know, but you probably know his son Eagle Eye Cherry for his one hit in the 90s, 'Save Tonight'. His daughter Neneh Cherry was a member of Rip Rig + Panic, a band that probably would appeal more to the members here, post-punk with jazz influence.
I had no idea the three were at all related. Shocked

I guess that's my musical discovery of the day, then.

Today I bought my first Don Cherry record.  I'd heard his unique trumpet playing on Robert Wyatt, Carla Bley, and other great musicians' albums, but this was the first time I took the plunge with a full LP with him as leader.  It was an impulse buy, I saw a brand new LP copy (double) at a decent price, and it cried out to me to buy it.  Very much a pan-ethnic affair, jazz is only a small part of the equation.

Here's side 3:

I don't think I could afford a new discovery each day.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

The Field Rotation stuff is real nice.
Here's some not too shabby synth pop stuff.

Don't know where their material is accessible. This newest album is s/t so I'm going to assume it's their first (although there are numerous and notable exceptions to the rule).

I actually found the whole album on Spotify this morning... it was good! Thumbs Up

Field Rotation - Acoutstic Tales


A great ambient album I discovered today with strong melodies that don't just drift off aimlessly but take you somewhere. Full thing is up on bandcamp

And today, I finally listened to Volcano the Bear for the first time.  I remember Gazzardian talking about them a couple of years ago, and I made a mental note to check them out.  That mental note got lost, and I just regained it when going through the Wayside catalog and ordering one of their CDs.  In preparation, I found a youtube playlist containing a full album different from the one I ordered, and listened to it today.  They're about as weird as it gets, just what I needed.
