Café Kaput - Applied Music Vol.1 - Science & Nature

  Quote

 

Concise, succinct and targeted material specially produced for the broadcast, refreshment and entertainment industries. Melody, rhythm and metre. New ways to travel. Applied Music Vol.1 is the first in an occasional series of library-style albums from Café Kaput. Applied Music albums are organised into thematic selections and feature tracks chosen for their immediacy, simplicity of arrangement and distilled sense of mood.

 

Vol.1 - Science & Nature explores our relationship with environments, travel and industry, among other topics.

looking forward to this. jon brooks has yet to disappoint

Yeah this looks great- he's just posted up a preview on sound cloud too

I'll be having some of that, no two ways about it.

wow, love the sample. i'm wondering if this is going to be a compilation from "different artists" on cafe kaput or a solo album?

I'm assuming just Jon Brooks, by the sound of it. No one else has yet released anything on Cafe Kaput have they?

Jon Brooks is killing it. Will be picking this up.

i meant his current alias' georges vert and dd denham (that's why i put different artists in quotes).

Just downloaded this, and my Focus Group CD turned up today too.

So that's tonight's listening sorted then!

finally got this and it's an amazing set of electronic library music- in the vein of late 70s-early 80s bruton, parry or conroy. excellent presentation as well. brooks is really at the top of his game, able to seamlessly make sounds that seem to have been handpicked from the original labels they've been influenced by.

also, according to the credits, the music is by lord, kinmel and st.george (obviously all jon brooks) but it's that kind of detail that keeps this inside the library music dimension.

Going through it a second time. Best Cafe Kaput release so far?

i'm enjoying this a lot. curious to hear the rest of the series, if there is going to be more

Ah gotcha, sorry.

Such a talented guy, been on a huge Ghost Box kick lately as well. Inspiring tunes.

Great, great stuff

I had severe doubts about this question, but I'm starting to think the answer may just be "yes"

Jon says on Twitter expect a green vinyl pressing of Vol. 1 in 2019.

the only two i'd buy on vinyl are the dd denham and music for thomas carnacki records 

Yeah luckily I snatched a Thomas Carnacki vinyl when they came out, probly my favorite Brooks album to date. And the cover art was fantastic.
