I have really been enjoying Rodger Coleman's cassette release Journey to Brno... it's a compilation of various solo electronic pieces he put together from 2018 to 2024... Moog, other synthesizer sounds, lots of electronic settings I can't begin to understand, in a pleasing sonic brew... similar in many ways to the aural landscapes he'd come up with for many of our duo recordings... hearing it makes me itch to play... these are beautiful sounds, electronics with the human touch of selection and a sense of dynamics and structure... I really enjoyed the PBS documentary Sun Ra: Do the Impossible (streaming here), even though I am not the intended audience... Not as much Duke Ellington this week, but lots of Ra... and man A Drum Is a Woman continues to intrigue me...
