❝ In hindsight, [Jon Hassell] traced his interest in global music — what Hassell would call “Fourth World” music — to such encounters [in his hometown of Memphis], “back to the crossing of cultures thing. I thought to myself later, after I left, ‘You never really know your place.’ Even if you grow up in a small town, you don’t really know what it is until you leave and you look back on it again.” ❞ → memphismagazine.com/culture/th

Looking for some recordings I came across this mix. The mixologist for this site makes some very cool compilations, mostly ambient.

's music makes very different kinds of sense when you approach it as heady tribal(ish)ambient 'world music'--his supertreated horn producing pure textural electrosonics which already make some sense in that musical domain--vs something like a cleaner, (paradoxically?) whiter mid-70s ensemble groove, built around actual bizarre playing.

i hear it as one thing on the outbound train, another thing on the inbound, so to speak.

City: Works of Fiction by Jon Hassell. Decided to give this a serious listening to. I don't find it the easiest album to get into but it's growing on me
