Garden music

What music is good for playing, quietly ish, so as not to aggravate the neighbours, in your garden? Especially, obviously, on a hot summer evening.

Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime, on a loop

We're currently listening to Pink by Four Tet.

I really like soft, glitchy electronic music outdoors in the summer -- it kind of blends well with natural sounds.

i think "kaputt" works well

I actually put Kaputt by the CD player when I put the speakers at the window cos I thought it would work.

gordon's garden party goes down a treat. I find the neighbours like it if you turn it up a bit.

The new Chris Watson?

Brian Eno's "Music for Gardens."

juana molina
kalama's quartet / sol ho'oppii

ac jobim - stone flower

surely the only correct answers are either a ragga/dancehall hits compilation or that 4hr 100% pure garage mix

Edinburgh has been bathed in sunshine over the past few weeks and I've spent as much time as possible out in the back garden doing exactly this. I'll second 'Kaputt' which provided a great backdrop to last Sunday's bbq.

Mainly I've been blasting;

Lots of stuff applicable to the 'Wistful, Guitar Pop' thread i.e
The new Ducktails LP/Both Real Estate albums
Wild Nothing, in particular the new EP
Mac Demarco

Electronic stuff;
Memory Tapes - Seek Magic
Caribou (though Swim needs a decent speaker, sounds dreadful through the aux connection of my mono DAB)
Cut Copy

I'll think of some more later on and would welcome suggestions myself.

Poolside - "Pacific Standard Time"

the upsetters - blackboard jungle dub
stravinsky - rite of spring
merzbow - ikebana amlux remix &c
spiritualized - lazer guided melodies

What lex said +soca & afrobeats. Actually loads of stuff works. I am very kindly disposed to other people's music when the sun is shining.

Rocky Bottom sounds pretty good now. But I get told my taste in music is pretty depressing often, so - maybe this isn't right?

Miguel, MM's Immer also today - good.

Quieter Miles Davis -- In a Silent Way, "He Loved Him Madly."
