    BLOOD ’N’ TONGUE ARCHIVE COMPILATION

    VOLUME IX - DOWNTEMPO & FUTURE JAZZ

    The Blood ’n’ Tongue Archive Compilation series is a curated selection of genre based retrospective albums. Each release is intended to offer a distinctive cross section of the works contained in this extensive, four decade spanning catalogue of original music. It is hoped that these collections will offer a handy guide to the music available via this outlet. Each compilation is built around a specific musical style or set of styles and contains the equivalent of a double LP’s worth of music. Notations within the accompanying documentation offer information on production dates and release sources to facilitate further exploration. Great care has been taken in the selection of material for these collections in order to insure the most coherent, consistent and satisfying listening experience. ... more

about

While you gotta keep a cool head about you as much as you can, never forget that playing the fool is, in the end, the height of personal evolution, especially when you’re climbing that tree. One must possess a refined sense of the absurd in order to fully grasp the nature of the beast we loosely refer to as “reality”. It comes down to the realization that nothing really matters, in the grand scheme of things, so you’d best get on with the task of having a bit of fun in this world while you can. All the judgements people throw at you dissolve into nothingness and no one will remember any of it, given the passage of enough time. All this fuss is merely a bit of vibrating matter on a spec of dust in a vast infinity of “something” from “nothing”. So chill the fuck out and, if you’re having a problem with any of that, here’s a few laid back & groovy tunes to help you meditate on the meaning of madness.

Mr. Fist likes to make music. Mr. Fist likes to make creepy music, assembling sounds and words that ferment together into a bubbling broth of hallucinogenic mayhem.
