Dreams of Water Themes

Posted about 1 year ago
First off I'd like to thank "Oatmeal":http://mog.com/Oatmeal for recommending this album to me. It was very thoughtful of him and totally up my alley. _Dreams of Water Themes_ came out in 2003 on Plug Research. Adventure Time was a collaboration between Daedelus and Frosty (founder of internet radio station Dublab). If I had seen this album at the store I would've purchased it based solely on the cover alone. I think it's really awesome. The album seems to invoke the feeling of what the album cover convey's. It's a whimsical high seas journey through the east to the far east. The album combines thrift store kid records, kabuki, Indian music, old skool funk rhythms, european film music, jazz samples, african music... It's a genre smörgåsbord. Really fun stuff. I found it hard to choose which tracks to post as I liked them all. Each represents its own little journey through the world. It's definitely an adventure. Thanks again Oatmeal for the recommendation and if you get a chance I recommend checking it out too.

  5. Oatmeal says Good track choices! I can vouch to all that this is a great record. It is mostly instrumentals and never boring.

  6. fistula spume says Yeah way fun. I was worried about posting two of the vocal tracks but I liked them a lot. All great though. I saw that there were a few tracks that they submitted recently on compilations. I wonder if there's more Adventure Time in the works.

  7. Oatmeal says I read somewhere that there is a complete album expected this year. I heard one comp. song and it had this funny 80's synth vibe going on.

  10. fistula spume says Thanks Bartleby. It is gorgeous. I wish I could color like that. There's such fluid movement with the composition and the color really matches it.
