Eleki Bushi 1966-74 (LP)
Takeshi Terauchi
Must have era for Japanese Guitar. Surf Rock mixed with traditional Japanese folk melodies and the distinct element of pentatonic scales. Solid Far-out (east) jams.

Since Time is Gravity (LP)
Natural Information Society
Spiritual jazz ensemble. Heavy influence of Gnawan music and traditional North African Sufism. At it's heart is the guembri leading the group through looping-patterns and rhythmic cycles creating an almost trance-like state.

The Rubaiyat Of (LP)
Dorothy Ashby
This LP has always been hard to find in the wild, get it while it's in print! Jazz harp melodies, Asian and Latin influences. Her mastery of the harp and exploration of diverse genres are endlessly rewarding.

Muslim Highlife (LP)
Alhaji Waziri Oshomah
Luaka Bop somehow puts together collections by artists like no one else. This, as the title suggests, is a unique blend of Nigerian Highlife and Muslim spiritual devotion. A distinct style that grows on you especially with the longer pieces.

Journey to the Moon and Beyond (LP)
Mort Garson
Some more unearthed Mort moog. The otherworldly tones and timbres of pure moog. Unlike most moog used in the 60's and 70's, Mort is not re-imagining classical compositions or adding psychedelic flourishes. Just playful, creative easy-listening ear adventures.

Psychopath (LP)
Morgan Wade
I've been listening to Morgan's first album, Reckless, non-stop for 2 years. It instantly became one of my favorites. I highly recommend both albums and seeing a live show.

Poker Face (Other)
Natasha Lyonne, Rian Johnson
This isn't available on DVD/BLU yet, but when you're done streaming it, come in and buy literally anything Natasha or Rian have done. It's all great. My favorites are But I'm a Cheerleader and The Brothers Bloom.
Also be sure to stream The Diplomat, The Night Agent and Russian Doll on Netflix; Shrinking, Truth Be Told, and High Desert on Apple.
