Buck Curran, the prolific singer, songwriter, luthier living in Bergamo, Italy, has a lot going on. Buck's Obsolete Recording label seems to be endlessly pumping out the jams, in the form of interstellar ambience, ruminative ragas, and melancholy melodies.
I thought the best way to cover all the things going on with his label, Obsolete Recordings, would be to hear it straight from him.
Hear Buck discuss the ten-year anniversary of the pivotal album Red Planet, from his project Arborea featuring himself and his former partner Shanti. We also discuss his partner Adele's adaption of Erik Satie's Gnossienne No. 1.
Finally, we get to the crux of the announcements - the time-sensitive endeavor to reunite Buck with a custom-made guitar. Hear the incredible story of how this guitar was made, how it slipped through his fingers, and how he found it ten years later on the other side of the world, in a guitar shop in Japan.
Buck is offering various subscription levels to Obsolete Recordings. I can't urge music lovers enough to utilize Bandcamp subscriptions to support artists in a sustainable way - and you get instant access to their entire back catalog. It honestly feels advantageous because you get so much more than you pay for. There are a few subscription tiers, and the days that the guitar is on hold are swiftly counting down.
