Above The Clouds #9 w/ Katiusha: Altocumulus 12.11.2019

It's been a difficult week for clouds, with a full moon working strong magic as
Berlin takes the plunge into November.


In the search for an antidote to the darkness, Above The Clouds celebrates the
altocumulus (altocumulus floccus, to be precise): neatly-formed rows of
mid-level cloud that stretch across the sky like a vast tray of tiny white fresh
bread rolls. These straight ripples visualise the particularly satisfying
harmonies so often heard in hip hop loops, jazz, barbershop quartet, and
sentimental rock, which this month's episode honours with tracks from Rare Silk,
David Gilmore, Herbie Hancock and more.
