Herb Sundays 197: JP Haynie (of @actual_source)
Link in bio to the playlist. Art by @Michaelcina
The Co-Founder of publisher/design studio/brand Actual Source shares music that inspires his own recordings. Plus taste, shame, and Nirvana.
“Sunday is a big music day for me cause I can take her slow and listen to records for a few hours in the morning while I cook for my family and whatnot. This is a sequence of songs that I love, and that maybe captures a bit of the mood of the most recent record I made. The recordings of Gabor Szabo, Italian composers like Riz Ortolani for horror and western films, and ‘Switched On’ versions of pop and country songs from the 70’s were a big influence on the sound of my recordings. I’ve included 3 songs from ‘Meadow System’ for good measure.”

the “humanity” of a thing or a POV is what people really care about, often more than the thing itself.

At 78, Haruomi Hosono returns with his first new album in seven years—a swan song, perhaps, to one of music's most quietly influential careers. airmail.news/sh/a5hyMk

For drummers only: an outtake from _The Amplified Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana_ about "The Terminator," the already legendary rented snare drum that Dave Grohl played on _Nevermind_.

“Here’s a playlist that I put together for Sunday listening…starts out quite spacey but later peppered with a few classic songs. There are sounds and textures here that inspire me and some moments that informed the production on ‘Lost In Another World.’”

I wrote a little love letter about Haruomi Hosono's 23rd solo record. The old legend is still bursting with great ideas as he creeps up on octogenarian status. Thanks for all the music.
Sincerely, 💌
