ah. how'd you hear of it? i'm just curious because he's a good friend of mine. he just got signed to Nujabes' label last year and has been getting big since then; a song actually played in the olympic stadium during women's gymnastics at one point haha

Wow, thats pretty cool... It was a last.fm recommendation, 'cause I was listening to a hell of a lot of Saltillo and was after more stuff like that. His latest remix on Myspace is absolutely killer.

flying saucer attack - further

brilliant

ariel pink's haunted graffiti- [I]the doldrums
[/I]
man i've really fallen in love with this album, i love getting really high and listening to it. the man is out of his mind but at the time its so cool how the music and melodies dance on that line between catchy and just out there.

any reccs for similar stuff?

Sean Moore- [I]Tone Poems in Lo-Fidelity[/I]

He worked with Ariel Pink on some of his earlier albums. This album is like a more stripped down and conventional Haunted Graffiti.

Black Moth Super Rainbow's first album

Frank Zappa's [I]We're Only in it For the Money[/I], [I]Lumpy Gravy[/I], and [I]Uncle Meat[/I]

R. Stevie Moore. He is the innovator of the whole home recording thing and is a big mentor/influence to Ariel Pink.

Holy S[B]h[/B]it- [I]Stranded Between Two Harbors[/I]

An album with Matt Fishbeck and Ariel Pink

thanks alot man, i'm going to try to find as much as I can. For BMSR, are you talking about Start A People?

Yeah. I think it has a similar atmosphere.

i can definitely see that now that you said it, was just listening to that album too, i think I like it more than Dandelion Gum. its funny if I had to pick two albums that make me feel like im in some kind of alternate reality when I listen to them, it'd be these two. start a people has always had this cool entrancing effect on me where i get really into the music. reminds me of acid alot actually.

I think its because Ariel Pink and at least on that BMSR album, they imply that the music comes from some sort of time period that may or may not have existed and may just in fact be an historians interpretation of a certain time period so you're actually looking through the lens of a biased observer onto lost tribe between the walls of thrift stores in Midwestern towns

yeah i really thought you put it nicely when you said "i feel like i want to live in the time when these songs were written" referring to those first couple tracks on The Doldrums, its exactly like that. The lo-fi production has alot to do with it and like the string sound on the keys he has going on like For Kate I Wait gives it this like eerie almost like the song is in black and white. that and the jangling guitar he does alot gives just this feel like it was made about 50 years ago or something.

Have you seen his music videos? They're mind boggling

no i bet theyre insane though. have you seen him live? i read about the whole live performance thing and he plays with a different band each night/he plays all improv stuff?

I'm seeing him on Sunday actually. Will post here on how he is.

he's touring? where are the dates?

ahhh i see two dates in LA

Loren Chasse - Footpath Apparitions

hey does anyone know if the Nation of Ulysses songs "A Kid Who Tells On Another Kid..." and "Cool Senior High School (Fight Song)" are mislabeled or something? they're listed as tracks 5 and 6 respectively on AMG and wikipedia but the lyrics make it seem like each song is actually the other one

The Cool Kids - [I]The Bake Sale[/I]
The Replacements - [I]Let It Be[/I]

I just got Let It Be and its awesome. I don't know why I waited so long to listen to the Replacements.

Cynic - Focus

I'm seeing Cool Kids on thursday.

Pacific Theme- Broken Social Scene

Nope. They're in the right order.

Leonard Cohen - [I]The Essential Leonard Cohen[/I]

unwound- leaves turn inside you

yeah i keep mentioning but i feel like i haven't been able to really connect with this album until now. or until at least the past few days. or today.

blah blah blah

i also really need some new music but im not in the mood for just anything.

i hear that first MBV album isn't (just) anything

Flying Lotus
Department of Eagles

stooges - fun house

this is one of the liveliest albums in terms of production. i think i got the remastered version too, so they definitely didnt fu[size=2]ck[/size] that up.

[QUOTE=samarahah;16862475]i also really need some new music but im not in the mood for just anything.[/QUOTE]

have you heard Young Ginns? its not totally new since there are members from Unwound but you would really like it because its amazing

word up perriwinkle!

yea man... Half Twist + We Are Buildings = ultimate

have you heard Worst Case Scenario? two of the guys from Young Ginns (including justin trosper) were in it so its probably really good, but i havent been able to find it yet. i kind of want to order the CD
