This is the third themed playlist for the Yarnadelic Remixes 0.1 project by myself - Felicity (Felix) Ford - and my collaborator, Muriel Pensivy. You can find the rest of the project at https://knitsonik.teachable.com. We are making patterns to hear, music to wear. In each playlist, we take a different musical theme for our ideas, starting with one of the yarns with which we've knit and the song that inspired that yarn. This playlist began with “Music For A Found Harmonium” by Penguin Cafe Orchestra (PCO), and explores the various influences from different regional music from non-Western countries (Japan, Senegal, Niger etc.) on their sound. The playlist also explores the influence of Minimalism on the PCO sound, (also heavily influenced by non-Western music - especially by musical forms and approaches from India) and the music - in turn - that has been inspired by the PCO and that is, in a sense, its legacy.
