ALAN JENKINS AND THE KETTERING VAMPIRES

Alan Jenkins :

This is a compilation of all the nicest pop songs by Alan Jenkins and the Kettering Vampires. If you listen to this you will tap your feet and feel compelled to hum. There is an, only very slightly different, alternative universe where you hear these songs whenever you go shopping.

A NEW PIECE BY EIDON

'Limen II'
by Eidon

A variation on "Limen I", this second piece is scored for two marimbas and percussion, and also inspired by the book I mentioned in my previous message (Carmen Blacker's "The Catalpa Bow"). Both pieces are meant to be performed sequence-wise, back-to-back, so I invite you to listen to them as a connected pair.

Hope you enjoy!

CANDY DULFER - WE NEVER STOP

• Candy Dulfer: We Never Stop
      (2022, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
      (2022, cd, --, mascot)

Every now and then, we have to talk about pure, uncut funk. When we do, we inevitably look toward Minneapolis and its absolute ruler, Prince.

Candy Dulfer's "We Never Stop" (released via Mascot Label Group) proves that the groove did not freeze in 2016.
This is superb !!

Here's a complete concert from 2023, including a guest appearance of her dad (and jazz legend) Hans Dulfer.
