TAOES Did you mean TAPES? is released. It has got both instrumentals and slower folk singer-songwriter recordings from 2010-2017 on it (they say from a-far in the background). “Listening in your headphones would probably be the best” (they add). Do it. I suppose.

I do not know who the feller on the cover is. The painting is ”Blå timmen” (Blue hour) and is by my dear father, Olle Schmidt. The instrumental ”Time traveler” was made for an art exhibition of his named ”Time traveller”, 2016.

“Summertime Blues” is a cover of the rock’n’roll number by Eddie Cochran/Jerry Capehart. True story. The backing vocals on that one and on ”I Was Singing This Song” is by Australian singer/songwriter Lindsay Phillips. It was recorded in Malmö in 2012. The other tunes and sounds are written by Schmidt. The song ”Home (Slower Later)” you might recognize from Slower Things album. But this take is both Slower and Later. And so on… there are 14 wee tracks on it.

You will find TAOES… on most streaming sites. One may also download it via http://www.timschmidt.bandcamp.com or iTunes etc. Or go to the www.timschmidt.site

This album is a part of a series of records. And I will get back to the matter sooner than {?} might think.
