11.29.12 | This would be my vote |
sniper01
11.29.12 | down |
MetallicOpeth
11.29.12 | seaeric tried this, but there was little to no interest |
Fort23
11.29.12 | down [2] |
Funeralopolis
11.29.12 | phillip glass rules |
sniper01
11.29.12 | let's make sputnik a music website again |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | yes! that was my thought haha. nobody actually cares to discuss the music |
Rev
11.29.12 | Id be down |
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | down but not this album?????? |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | ok then vote for an album you'd like to discuss.. that was one of the items in the description |
sniper01
11.29.12 | voting is gonna be a bitch. i propose each interested user submit 2 or 3 albums, which will be added to a huge list. then you just pick one at random each week. the goal should be to get people to listen to music that they wouldn't ordinarily seek out, but if people vote on the album they want to listen to, it is likely they would have listened to it anyway. |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | im down with that. so, everyone who gives a shit submit a few albums you'd like to discuss |
ilovetree
11.29.12 | funny, i just started listening to this for the very first time in my life |
ilovetree
11.29.12 | but yeah im down |
ZilbelPing
11.29.12 | I'm down but probably won't work as metallicopeth pointed out.
Post the albums and I'll vote. |
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | Great idea, guy. Ill throw in R.L. Burnside's "A Bothered Mind", R. Stevie Moore & Ariel Pink's "Ku Klux Glam", and Sun Ra's "Cosmic Tones For Mental Therapy" |
sniper01
11.29.12 | this heat - deceit
sam rivers - crystals |
mindleviticus
11.29.12 | Yeah I'm down too |
sniper01
11.29.12 | can i include classical music? it won't be an "album" but...
if so, Giacinto Scelsi's "Uaxuctum" get's my vote as well. |
ilovetree
11.29.12 | why don't we keep this to one suggestion per user so we actually have a chance of getting through the list? |
sniper01
11.29.12 | gets* also i doubt there will be many users who actually do this so i think it should be fine. we could also do 2 albums a week maybe. |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | i think i'd be down too, id be curious to see the album everyone chooses
and how would the voting process work |
sniper01
11.29.12 | i think we shouldn't vote. if we don't vote, we'll get to listen to wider range of albums. listening to albums that one individual regards highly will result in a more unique experience. |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | ok i get it sniper so we will all be part of the club and each persons rotates one album to rec to the club per week, right? |
sniper01
11.29.12 | that would work |
ZilbelPing
11.29.12 | I like sniper's idea. Who's in charge of this? It has to be pretty organized to work. |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | that works. how about us four are the committee B) |
ZilbelPing
11.29.12 | Who's us 4? If I'm one of them, I'm way to busy to keep track of everyone's stuff unless we keep in touch out of sputnik. |
foxblood
11.29.12 | i'm down too, it'd be nice to actually talk about an album |
Adabelle
11.29.12 | Sure |
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | How about you make it a list of a few albums, each one from differant genres? |
Adabelle
11.29.12 | I like the random pick from a list idea thing |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | i honestly didn't think there'd be this much demand. why dont we just agree on an album? what do you
guys think of einstein on the beach? or zgps and snipers suggestions? |
ilovetree
11.29.12 | let's pick einstein, already listening :3 |
Chortles
11.29.12 | sounds cool dude i'd be down |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | im open to anything good |
foxblood
11.29.12 | i'm down for whatever don't really care, let's just pick something that someone in particular really loves, that would interest me more |
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | everybody should check out the philip glass record (or at least a song off of it) and give an opinion before this thing is carried out, out of respect for the originater of this idea. |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | "voting is gonna be a bitch. i propose each interested user submit 2 or 3 albums, which will be added to a huge list. then you just pick one at random each week. the goal should be to get people to listen to music that they wouldn't ordinarily seek out, but if people vote on the album they want to listen to, it is likely they would have listened to it anyway."
^this is a good idea sniper, I agree with you |
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | *IMO |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | Philip Glass - Einstein on the Beach[2] |
Chortles
11.29.12 | yeh the randomized thing sounds like a good idea |
foxblood
11.29.12 | yeah snipers' idea is good, although i'd say 1 album each would be plenty for now |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | that involves a lot more total effort than i feel the sputnik community is willing to carry out. with everyone needing to first propose an album and then actually visit back later on to find out which one was chosen. What's wrong with coming to a consensus? So far Einstein on the Bach has a few votes |
Chortles
11.29.12 | how is it more effort if they just have to say that once as opposed to voting every week? i also doubt there'd be a general consensus if there was voting anyway |
demigod93
11.29.12 | yeah this sounds cool meet on tinychat or something yeah |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | alright well, yeah. everyone propose an album. i'll choose one randomly out of the list afterwards. |
Chortles
11.29.12 | yeahhh i donno how you want to go about gathering the albums you could make another list or just get em here i guess idk |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | I don't wana rec the obvious genre of dm so I'll choose something I think more people will enjoy so my contribution is:
The Cinematic Orchestra - Motion[this is a jazz/electronic album with excellent drumming and emotional feel] |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | what's so funny darth |
menawati
11.29.12 | isnt the whole site an album listening club anyway ? |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | @ darth - well that makes sense |
Chortles
11.29.12 | i wouldn't say that |
SeaAnemone
11.29.12 | yeah I tried this and nobody wanted to : (
I'd be down though |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | i thought of that, and yeah you're right menawati, but i want to create more focused discussions than the usual "album ruls" "album suks" discussions we have usually. so, we have eight submissions. any one else? i'll give an hour for people to submit before i select a random album. |
Chortles
11.29.12 | cardiacs - on land and in the sea |
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | R. Stevie Moore & Ariel Pink, "Ku Klux Glam" |
sniper01
11.29.12 | Giacinto Scelsi - "Quattro Pezzi Per Orchestra - Anahit - Uaxuctum" there is a cd with those three pieces by scelsi on it that is pretty easy to "acquire." the whole cd is ~50 minutes long. google will guide you. |
foxblood
11.29.12 | Vashti Bunyan - Just Another Diamond Day |
Chortles
11.29.12 | rock on |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | haha im excited for this, nobody has suggested an album that i've heard yet. |
SeaAnemone
11.29.12 | purplene - purplene |
JokineAugustus
11.29.12 | Im interested. I rec Meadows End - Ode to Queitus |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | ok suggesting is closed. will now use random.org to pick a random album |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | and the winner is, Giacinto Scelsi - "Quattro Pezzi Per Orchestra - Anahit - Uaxuctum". I will create a new thread next thursday for us to discuss it and choose a new album |
foxblood
11.29.12 | downloadin now. i can provide a link for anyone who doesn't feel like looking for one
|
ZGP1992
11.29.12 | downloadin now. i can provide a link for anyone who doesn't feel like looking for one
that would be nice |
ilovetree
11.29.12 | that would be pretty dank |
foxblood
11.29.12 | done and done |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | but seriously guys if you haven't listened to einstein on the beach you should totally check it out.. its an experience for sure. |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | can't wait to discuss with u all, getting everything tonight |
CaptainDooRight
11.29.12 | also per my slot, I wanted to change my rec:
from:
The Cinematic Orchestra - Motion
to:
Blotted Science - The Machinations Of Dementia
- this is a more in depth album so I'd say lets get right to it, its basically intrumental jazz death metal with the brilliant mind of guitarist Ron Jarzombek[prolly spelled his last name wrong] and bassist alex from cannibal corpse and some drummer dude from obscura who is solid too. |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | that sounds interesting i'll probably check that out |
Ecnalzen
11.29.12 | This sounds cool. I found a Youtube playlist with all three pieces in it, just not sure if it's all the movements for each one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Oacn2liu5c&feature=BFa&list=PLi7LWVoesx4Aa9Dyf1s2Kov22a-LODN_q |
sniper01
11.29.12 | yeah all the movements are there. in total, the three works would last about 50 minutes |
Keyblade
11.29.12 | Nights Amore - Subscribers of Death
let's all listen to this togethaaaa sputtt |
Chortles
11.29.12 | so we jammin or what |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | so the plan is to listen to the album we chose (Giacinto Scelsi - "Quattro Pezzi Per Orchestra - Anahit - Uaxuctum") and discuss it next thursday in another thread. |
Chortles
11.29.12 | sweet |
sniper01
11.29.12 | listen to the pieces a couple times. and listen loudly. |
chupacabraisreal
11.29.12 | Awesome. |
