Flow State - Guest rec from Illuminati Hotties
Welcome back to Flow State. If you enjoy Flow State, consider going paid to support the work that goes into this newsletter. You’ll also get our private Spotify playlist and the complete versions of our weekly community-sourced mixes. Today we have a guest recommendation from Sarah Tudzin, the American producer and frontwoman of illuminati hotties and author of IH In Motion. Her new album, POWER, is available now. Here are a few instrumental albums (that I'm not sure if you've already posted) that absolutely rock me every time I hear them: First Thought Best Thought by Arthur Russell - weird, percussive, inspiring, & cinematic in a quirky, retro fantasy way Photay by Photay - (there is one song with vocals on it) full of beautiful field recordings, African percussion loops, broken keyboards, hooky, snappy, sweet Mingus Plays Piano by Charles Mingus - great solo piano is hard to come by! a peaceful and beautiful album from a man known for grit and bombastic bass. really pure this fucking thing??????? I have no idea who or what this is but someone showed it to me during the pandemic and its nuts. might be Four Tet related? Glassworks by Philip Glass - i feel like this one must have hit flow state by now! [Ed. note: correct.] it's gospel... without songs like "Floe" I'm not sure we'd have the influential, maximalist, chamber pop bands that we know and love today! I hope these works of art bring you as much joy and introspection as they’ve brought me. Enjoy! ~Sarah
