HOLGER CZUKAY “Blessed Easter” (1987)
Czukay’s post-Can work is the shit. I particularly dig his tape manipulations and use of found audio; the greatest of these is Movies’ “Persian Love”.
“Blessed Easter” is a close second though, blending a recording of Pope John Paul II leading Easter services with a dubby Jah Wobble baseline, radio fragments, and a languid electronic bed. Soooo good.
