David's Session - Aug 2025
We feasted like kings, admired a shiny new kitchen, and enjoyed a great night of music.
commentsThis post-quake, Christchurch band push analogue synths and found sounds to the extreme.
The original Les Baxter was an innovator of two forms of easy listening lounge music: exotica and space age pop. A fair jazz pianist, Baxter’s real strengths were as an arranger.
In the late 1940s, he started bringing exotic, percussion-heavy instrumentation together with lush, melodic strings and elements of big band swing.
We feasted like kings, admired a shiny new kitchen, and enjoyed a great night of music.
commentsWe explored a world without (well, almost without) guitars, and shared the quiet joys of brotherhood.
