Open Hand Real Flames
With Bass Clef
OPEN HAND REAL FLAMES is a monthly show presented by Bass Clef. Each episode has a theme - usually a specific musical instrument or process, perhaps an artist or composer, sometimes a record label. Ranging wide over centuries and genres, looking for connections and joy. Always welcomes contributions, music, suggestions. For old Floating World Music shows click here
From the host: "No theme this month - just some weird key-matched blends, shifting in and out of sync with each other, like layers of clouds in the sky. Squint at the show with your ears and it might make sense"
