minimalist music on Symphonic Monday for 25 Nov, and here's an example of how important minimalist music has been for some performers –

Steve Reich, "Eight Lines" (developed from 1979's "Octet") (1983)

Remixed version by Howie B, from 1999's "Reich Remixed".

The prompt is Indigo

Skylab, “Indigo” from #1, 1994

Skylab is an English/Japanese group, among whose founding members is DJ/producer #HowieB, which explains a lot about their sound. They seem to be an on again/off again project more than an ongoing group, but between their two full length albums they released a steady stream of singles and EPs throughout the #90s. Their heavily #electronic music has been labeled #TripHop, but I find their sound more ethereal, and rhythmic but in an off-kilter way, which can combine in a vaguely, deliciously disturbing way.

Today's random #Discogs choice Howie B and Music For Babies 1996. His first album. Trip hop goodness. Side 1 is the better of the two. Favourite track Shag.
