St Germain - Tourist (2000)
Everyone should have at least one copy of this on stand by at all times. If you need some background music, it works.

commentsIggy looks extremely happy on the cover of this record with a grin a mile wide. Why wouldn’t he? He’d just been thrown a great big life line from David Bowie - who co-writ and recorded this and the preceeding “The Idiot”.
commentsOh by jingo this is good! The Man Who Sold The World Tony Visconti 2020 Remix! Ronno makes his first appearance following his thrown-in-the-deep-end BBC sessions of 1971.
commentsThis record never ceases to reveal something new each and every time I take pleasure in listening to it. (Now that’s a bit spooky, I googled a review of the record and found the following echoing my thoughts.
commentsEven though the world has gone completely bonkers, this sounds perfectly out of place and refreshingly unhinged. Heavily influenced by Krautrock, “Bitches Brew” Mile Davis and spooky soundtrack music for non-existent horror movies, it’s a bit disconcerting to say the least.
commentsThe themes were: Memory , Implicitly humorous ( oh…go on then…explicitly counts too!) , Grandeur
commentsYet another ace ACE Records compilation lovingly curated by Bob Stanley. I continue to hoover these up like nose candy. This is happy clappy, hippy dippy, hip hop.
commentsAnother fabulous example of late 70s New York No Wave that’s further perpetrated by French invader Lizzy Mercier Descloux. Take some of Serge Gainsbourg’s Afrobeat, combine with Blondie’s disco-inflected punk and Talking Heads’ world music-inspired art pop and you get the drift.
commentsComplete and utter 12" remix trash heaven this evening. I picked up this triple LP, 2019 compilation out of one of the bargain bins at JB-Hifi for $10.
commentsI was completely absorbed and inspired to play this following a recent bus commute from Richmond to Nelson. (if I’m honest, the bleakness of this record is warmly welcomed after another day working in that dreadful town they call Richmond!
