VARIOUS ARTISTS - MY HUMAN DIGS ME BLUES
- Various Artists: My Human Digs Me Blues - Blues Cats from NOW to the 23rd century
(2026, download / streaming, --, discus music / bandcamp)
With an official release date of October 1, the complete digital download of "My Human Digs Me Blues" was already made available earlier today.
And what a fun album it is.
I guess that the album title is a little nod to Captain Beefheart's 'My Human Gets Me Blues', a piece of music that would have fit this compilation perfectly.
And what a fun collection of tracks it is. I'm familiar with some of the artists, but most of the names are unknown to me. The download comes with 75 page (!) booklet, perfect if you want additional info to dig in deeper.

HIBUSHIBIRE - PHANTOM FUZZY EXOTIC
Japanese psychedelic rock trio Hibushibire got founded in 2012 by guitarist Chang Chang (= Kohei Takakura).
The band’s name, Hibushibire, comes from an old Japanese slang term that can be roughly translated as ‘freak-out orgasm’. It was also the name of their first album, released in 2017. It got produced by Acid Mothers Temple’s Kawabata Makoto.
This is great stuff. Love it !!

STEPHEN STEINBRINK
In 2018, Stephen Steinbrink released "Utopia Teased".
The album included a piece entitled 'Zappa Dream'.
Apparently a cover version of song written and previously recorded by Rosie Steffy, telling a surreal, dreamlike, (zappa-esque ?) story.
Here's Stephen Steinbrink's version, also released on CD and on LP.

ANDY EDWARDS - KOZMOZ
- Andy Edwards: Kozmoz
(2026, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
Andy Edwards' latest release presents five tracks.
Always worth checking out. If you're only going to listen to two tracks, I can recommend the centerpiece, 'Kozmoz', and the final track, 'Chanan's Lost Blues', featuring Chanan Hanspal.
