"COWARD'S HOUR 05/26/19" BY DANIEL GARROD

From the archive. Eighty-four minutes of sound spanning decades and genres. Selected by one of our closest co-conspirators - the mononymous Wolfey.

"EXHAUSTION" BY WOLFEY

From the archive. A mix tailored by our friends at the Mid-Pacific Institute to help ease the transition from one year to the next.

"ANU ANU" BY MID PACIFIC INSTITUTE

An ineluctable reality we all share (especially in the temperate James Coward home base) is that when the calendar months flip into double digits, the length and number of precipitate-free days shrink together in perfect harmony.

So, when the sun goes down and you begin contemplating all of life’s self fulfilling prophecies, relax, and let these vibrations guide your mind to all those places where autumn is reversed…

"HARD RAIN FALLING" BY ADAM RUTLEDGE

Enjoy this blend of organic and synthetic frequencies - selected with care and equally suited for a multispecies noticing exercise centred on the multitudes of flora, fauna and funga that lie beyond your door, or a more introspective journey taken within the confines of your home.

"SKYLIKE MIND" BY CORBEN

Hours merge. Time is seen in different combinations. The specific evaporates. Moments are grouped into dissonant & elliptical networks of memory. Only the resonant and recursive escape entropy.

Enjoy these selections of sounds that ruminate on the aching beauties of bliss, anguish, misfortune, and their mixtures. From all of us at James Coward, remember to listen to that face in the mirror and believe what she’s telling you

"TRAWLING HOURS" BY DANIEL GARROD

"C’est l’histoire d’une société qui tombe et qui au fur et à mesure de sa chute se répète sans cesse pour se rassurer : jusqu’ici tout va bien, jusqu’ici tout va bien, jusqu’ici tout va bien. .. Le problème ce n’est pas la chute, c’est l’atterrissage."

Enregistré le jour d'une pluie d'automne, au Salon des Amateurs, à Düsseldorf.

"LE MONDE EST Á NOUS" BY BAKA GAIJIN

A selection rooted in simplicity, openness and essentiality. Tune in, drift away, and take it from us: don’t worry about waiting for that wave to hit your side of town.

"IS THIS IT?" BY FLØRIST

Just because we’re bound by entropy doesn’t mean our lives aren’t fundamentally anti-entropic. Some things-—desires, urges, tendencies, patterns—were never meant to abate.

So, soothed by soft sounds & armed with the bitterness of knowledge, keep your head up, and stay wanderin’ on your solar journey...

"YOUNG MAN WALKING BLUES" BY ADAM K

Sonorous, full-bodied, touched with poignancy, and overlaid with some capital R Real humor. Strap in, adjust your mirror(s), and weave in n’ out alongside these strange vibrations...

"JOURNEY TO" BY PRIVATEPRESSED

One more twist around the tower. Selections by Liam Butler of Pender Street Steppers.

"LAST CALL ON CLOUD 9" BY LIAM BUTLER

Dedicated to all the petals that didn’t make it to the vase.

"PETAL IN MUD" BY JACK JUTSON

What’s playing at Nick’s house, especially when he’s cooking.

"KITCHEN MUSIC" BY NICHOLAS KRGOVICH

"TAKE 3" BY SOFT FIT

In Threads, Joseph Shabason (musician, multi-instrumentalist, vanity plate anthropologist, and man behind some of our favourite sax licks of all time) weaves together an assemblage composed solely “from songs learned about in text threads with buds.” Happy listening !
