|
 | Oceandrowned Hello! Answering your question: i have been to US several times, including joyriding through California, living in NYC for some months, visiting Miami as a stupid tourist. Has been a good times. It was before 2014 and covid though.
|
 | JohnnyoftheWell blessed get this down thee https://rateyourmusic.com/release/single/intense/breathless-streams-of-thought/
|
| JohnnyoftheWell https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=481385 this is epic and deserves better than whatever cyclotron has done to it
|
 | Hawks Domina by Maurizio is sooooo goooood.
|
 | Hyperion1001 https://triprecords.bandcamp.com/album/randyrtsport
|
 | Sunnyvale Yeah, it's possible I'll like it less in comparison to later albums once I familiarize myself with her discog, but it's a beautiful album (even if I don't completely vibe with all the songs). Cactus Tree is particularly gorgeous.
|
| ToSmokMuzyki ok i think i asked for the wrong thing this is all ambient s*** what do u call the techno that actually has energy
|
| Hawks I am being immersed in techno idk whats happening but I wanna hear it all holy s*** this might even last longer than my jazz binge.
|
| Hawks Writing up a review for Merchant of Salt, be on the lookout!
|
| ToSmokMuzyki https://www.sputnikmusic.com/user/fowlkrietzsche
|
 | evilford I'm pretty sure my 8-year-long dm bender is just permanent at this point
|
| evilford Trying brother! Hey u heard Lure of the Occult by Backyard Mortuary? Nice sick muddy dm you might dig if u haven't
|
| Hyperion1001 im usually not big on industrial techno but this one is top shelf stuff: https://rhysfulber.bandcamp.com/album/balance-of-fear-sglp18
|
 | bighubbabuddha no worries, i think it's their only good record. The other three LPs are trash haha
|
| SteakByrnes glad you dug it a bit, I like it as a driving album it's got the juice. Been thinking of making a list for recs of stuff like that
|
 | robertsona Guerilla maab - world keep turnin. And south side story
|
| SteakByrnes https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=497771 hit this up homie, really good dnb
|
| Hawks Mississippi John Hurt review is up!!
|
 | Colton check Tallahassee and We Shall All Be Healed, absolutely crucial
|
| Sunnyvale All good! Thanks for the quick reply
|
| Sunnyvale Hey Ryus! Any interest in writing up a short blurb for Knocked Loose as May's release of the month?
|
| Colton thoughts on The Mountain Goats?
|
| Hawks Jam the new Big30 album s*** goes soooooo hard.
|
| JohnnyoftheWell peep the first full track at least and think of it as their Celestial era. big decibels etc
|
| JohnnyoftheWell fwiw Salvation used to be my fav (maybe still is), but the bits that stuck with me hardest are the downbeat sections in Vague Illusions and Adrift where it's unpredictable which way the song will go next (and ig Leave Me Here does the same, but that one's a bit corny).
|
| JohnnyoftheWell jfc COL, TMV, why is everyone putting me on blast today over bands i haven't batted for in years lmao. CoL are definitely linear as all ****, which has soured me on them a little in the long run, but i'd argue they have an ear for atmos that sets them above most post acts, and they do well enough with sludge that they're heavy and momentous to get away with it sometimes/usually. peep the Beyond if you doubt me (that one at least goes hard enough that you can forget there are crescendos)
|
| Hawks They have all been amazing so far! Jammed that Vladislav Delay album as I was falling asleep last night and it was perfect. I love this stuff. So chill and relaxing in like an aquatic type way lol.
|
| Hawks Broooo that Rrose EP is so damn goooooooood.
|
| ToSmokMuzyki johnnyofthewell: i have always been on the dense with...music.
|
| robertsona I like ?kids? and ?weddiNy trilogy? a ton. Hope ur well. Nearly done teaching these Brownsville kids then prob gonna dive back in and do it again next year. Got to a 50% pass rate from a 25% one from a 5% one on the three school ?network?-generated ?Benchmark? exams so I guess that?s unhhh better
|
| Hawks Ur the man!! So I asked Hype too and I know u have a lot of knowledge on the subject as well but I need some techno recs, preferably on the ambient/minimal side. Throw some my way buddy!
|
| Hawks Just wanna let u know that ur awesome and one of my fav Sput bros. Thank you for always being a super chill dude with awesome taste. M///
|
| robertsona Somewhat great outsider music ish stuff that really resembles my own music (this is narcissistic but it is funny how much) Chuck Senrick - Dreamin? (1977)
|
| JohnnyoftheWell I have always been on the dense with Arooj?s music. There has been flourishes of greatness of her past few releases, but the construction of the albums have never come together that well. With that said her newest album she presents here feels the most flushed out. From the absolutely gorgeous use of minimal chamber bass orchestration to the heartfelt vocals laced over them. Everything feels and sounds perfectly emotional and real.
|
| Hawks Almighty So 2 review will be up late tonight/early tomorrow morning!
|
| Hyperion1001 you really gotta check the new acemo it might be his best yet.
|
| robertsona Sang this song today, a song from years ago by a friend https://on.soundcloud.com/oRaxUQgotqSdcMP56
|
| JohnnyoftheWell What in the **** is this M6 average jfc the peons on this site
|
| Hawks **** man I can never remember lmao. They have recently become my fav dm band ever. If u want some fun brutal dm/grindish stuff jam Die Already by Gaffed. I reviewed it last year but still didn't get much attention lol.
|
| Hawks Have u jammed Defeated Sanity bro??? I can't remember all what dm u have heard.
|
| Hyperion1001 https://wisdomteethuk.bandcamp.com/album/club-moss
|
| JohnnyoftheWell Manin no ki (tree with no vacancies) is a funny title lol. Familiar with a few of these names, will follow up on others, cool find
|
 | Winesburgohio turn that philistine... into a dang "philip"stine and give it another go when the mood strikes / u might not appreciate this reference but i had the line "turning her face to the wall, trying to force herself to face bravely the fact that many people must live and die alone, even in Winesburg" as my bebo profile quote
|
| Winesburgohio and i think it depicts loneliness and the sense of apartness that becomes a self-perpetuating tar pit better than about anything hmm
|
| Winesburgohio o did u not like it? it's been some years but I remember being dazzled by it in high school, like the sparse, firm prose conveying psychological acuity and genuine melancholy so well. something about the fabric and form of small-town-america(na) media really resonates with me, possibly because of similarities to small town new zealand(ana). or maybe this novel in particular was the start of my romanticisation. but i remember it being just as good - if not more moving and satisfying, in my 20s..
|
| Hawks Idk bro his sax playing is intense as **** at times but there's too much time of just dead air lol. When it hits it hits ahrd though.
|
| Hawks Gonna jam that Albert Ayler album tonight. Will let u kow my thoughts!!
|
| AsleepInTheBack Have you listened to Roscoe Mitchell - Sound and why is the answer no
|
| Hyperion1001 https://planetrhythm.bandcamp.com/album/transmutation-ep?from=embed

|
| Hyperion1001 https://stoor.bandcamp.com/album/two-hours-or-something?from=embedspeedy j and surgeon collab. preview tracks are bangers. should be great.
|
| Hawks Czech my King Von review broski.

 | Futures hard brother m/. i hope you've been well man. you're a good dude.
|
| Futures it's a neverending journey man. treatment went well caught pnemonia as a result over a month ago was hospitalized 4 days last week. doing a little better. this down time made me rediscover my love for music honestly which is great. one day at a time. i'm very thankful.
|
| Futures yeah man they look really solid. og is a fun player. i love brunson too. my friend got my a gift of courtside tickets to bucks vs knicks for the in-season tournament game before i went in for treatment again. was such a fun game and experience.
|
| Futures oh man that is brutal haha. but yeah this is the best time of year for me. love it. duke got an alright first two rounds. you're a knicks fan right?
|
 | parksungjoon look it up on whosampled and let your mind baboom
|
| JohnnyoftheWell https://kasracritical.bandcamp.com/album/dream-metal rev coming soon lfg
|
| JohnnyoftheWell Heyo organising a techno digbox for the blog, dya want in? V lowkey, theme is the Build an Album criteria as approached by people not in the tourno who love the genre (in a Here's What They Should Have Picked kinda way) - hmu with a yt/Spotify link and short blurb if you're down
|
 | Havey but yeah leonhardt's recordings are basically self-recommending, but his louis couperin recordings deserve special mention. very underrated composer, not to be confused with the much more famous francois couperin!
|
| Havey and ofc one of the most popular hpschd works is the italian concerto bwv 971 and you may want to hear a good version of that at some point: my fav is masaaki suzuki for BIS, and that album includes the underperformed sonata bwv 964 so it's extra recommendable...
|
| Havey the french suites are v approachable like the partitas but more modest in scope and intimate in character, and that album is one i always recommend to anyone who likes harpsichord: it has a really unique sound, being recorded on a real antique as opposed to a replica
|
| Havey leonhardt was the most influential classical musician of the 20th century, almost every established harpsichordist has at one point been his pupil or grandpupil, so thankfully there are many reliable successors to choose from... check bob van asperen in the pedalless toccatas bwv 910-916 (leonhardt never recorded that set), and then asperen again in the french suites bwv 812-817 (leonhardt did record those but it's not one of his best)
|
 | Atari Good lord that Charles Mingus is incredible. Killer rec!
|
| JohnnyoftheWell gonna trawl and build on it! finally remembered Shinichi Atobe's Chain Reaction roots were a thing - what a great EP!! is there a story for the distance between that and his other output (time-wise?). also, peep the Sa Pa album i just rated: is ambient/dub techno with field recordings and pure haveybait but v satisfying for that niche
|
 | Trebor. I've listened to it at least 10 times
|
| JohnnyoftheWell are you catching this build an album techno insanity / rate my mix lol
|
| Trebor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PrA9nov-R0
|
 | Snake. come back to ny i'm holding an anti-SB party at the jeromes dream show that night
|
 | Titan You?re the biggest pussy on this site quite honestly, always showing up at opportune times. Funny how we?re talking about poseurs on the pantera thread, know what I mean? KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
|
 | protokute https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-recaps/the-curse-finale-recap-nathan-fielder-emma-stone-benny-safdie-1234941021/ this pretty much sums how I feel about the Curse finale
|
| Hyperion1001 https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/maxime-denuc/nachthorn/
|
 | anode thanks for the rec! i dig it, a lil too dance-y for me but some good tracks!
|
| JohnnyoftheWell cheers lol interview was mid insomnia hrs have struck multila is on notes are being brainstormed new necks rev coming too!!
|
| JohnnyoftheWell damn i was literally just thinking of reviewing vantaa how did you get me. Multila not having one is worse though, got an interview tomorrow but will see if i can cook after
|
| Havey more serious or strongly colored than others, on average. (and major key sonatas will typically have a slow movement in the relative minor and vice-versa, so it's all a mix in that set anyway) try the E major fugue bwv 878, and the B major fugue bwv 892, both from WTC book 2. that's deep stuff
|
| Havey nice!! didn't have much time to respond during christmas but yeah the 18th century is full of banally happy and carefree music in major (one reason to gravitate towards earlier (modal) music). i think bach is the exception though. thinking so binarily about keys may be unhelpful here (maybe worth noting that bach didn't use major/minor terminology, those terms are applied to the music retroactively): each key would've had its own associations, with some major keys being
|
 | xxm Happy Holidays, Comrade! Been digging the lists.
|
| ToSmokMuzyki u wouldnt even give me a christmas rec and i also have no idea what ur talking about i didnt say nothin
|
| Cygnatti Idk but in the near future, I shall attempt to listen to listen to every single by yung lean and Bladee. ?
|
| Havey well in general i recommend ppl go straight to up-to-date specialist interpretations, skip all the "classic" recordings from star performers/virtuosi of the 20th century playing on modern instruments, you won't be missing much of value. some eye-openers: ophelie gaillard in the cello suites (both recordings, but i'd start with the first), ingrid matthews in the violin solos, faust/bezuidenhout in bwv 1014-1019 (faust doesn't specialize in the baroque but clearly did her homework for this album)
|
 | Pangea Hey thanks joining the secret santa! could I get a email/discord or something so that I can message you privately?
|
| Hyperion1001 this new dario zenker album is a jam: https://youtu.be/3xQ1mizF6Rg?si=OVv1SqzMZJKOIUf7
|
| Colton listen to 4 REAL it slaps hard

|
 | onionbubs oh wow that was wayyy more bare bones than i expected lol
|
| onionbubs oh thats ****in sick ill lyk when i have a minute to jam that. thanks for sending it over
|
 | Casavir Hey, if you like Show No Mercy, you might also like Protectors of the Lair by Griffin. Has a lot of similar things going for it and it has some riffing that's pretty ahead of the curve for '86.
|
 | DavidYowi Wax is ****ing insane. Played it for a couple friends and I, usually we tend to riff on a movie like this but we were stone silent while watching it. I saw a letterboxd review that put it best that the closest thing to it is the Mario 64 half press video, where it?s a flood of strange information you have no idea what to do with but said as if it?s a grand revelation of the universe. Also cool to find out it was the first film streamed to the internet
|
 | ArsMoriendi Dang, I like it a lot. I?m trying to find people who will also like it, cuz I wanna hype it, but I feel like it?s not panning out so far
|
| JohnnyoftheWell it is all the ambient/dub techno tropes done succinctly and goodly
|
| unclereich what's funny is that i'm actually not. Snake reported me in the mod thread, and el-newg keeps puttin it when i review, but I'm pretty sure I preceeded Skele on this site. I think that Wicka might be, not certain though
|
| Hyperion1001 yeah its a crisis. that new caterina barbieri album is probably the only thing ive likes so far this year. im worried im getting too old and the new stuff doesnt speak to me anymore lol
|
| JohnnyoftheWell ryus you fiend check my list (but wait like 1 hr because there's an you're gonna need to see)
|
 | SomeCallMeTim what wuz that semi recent (last year or few) death metal album with a very red / dark album art that's really morbid angel praise music that you've been mentioning a lot recently?
|
| Hyperion1001 I haven?t heard really a single decent electronic album this year besides the new Caterina barbieri album. Got any recs for me?
|
 | Jots what'd you think btw?
|
 | Colton55 plans changed now that I?m working full time as a developer, but rest assured I will apply what I?ve learned to make coltonmusic as robust as possible
|
| Hyperion1001 listen to that Fabricant album pizza just reviewed. metal aoty for me so far.
|
 | DoofDoof yeah I saw he had a new album out and was thinking I have never been amazed by his recent stuff so why not just try one of his classic albums first - love the fact it is a concept album too !
|
 | PussyGetter We gotta get you some real metal and a girlfriend
|
| JohnnyoftheWell daisuke tobari - guitar. need ur take (late 90s lofi/noisy psych folk 50 mins 25 songs many bangers)
|
| Jots https://theexitbags.bandcamp.com/album/our-sun-will-clean-its-holy-wounds : ]
|
| robertsona hope you're well. loving the first two songs on "how I do" by res lately
|
| JohnnyoftheWell nooo don't be trapped on spotify. weirdly, i'm almost the opposite for prose (although stilted translations that cling too hard to literal meanings are not the ones) - really turns me off when a translator works in uk/us cultural references or turns of phrase (esp dialogue) to the point that you can barely tell where the text is supposed to be set. tricky balance to negotiate differently for any text. also i ****ed up and went down the DJ Healer Planet Lonely rabbithole - v hit and miss
|
| robertsona Frank zappa - son of Suzy creamcheese (song)
|
| JohnnyoftheWell oh thank **** there's a 34-track lost in dreams version for that sweet sweet lastfm cred
|
| JohnnyoftheWell lol i wish it's an instructional project of translating haiku in a way that preserves japanese conventions and i'm tryna suss out a love/hate relationship with how easy it is to write reams and reams of bs about haiku
|
| JohnnyoftheWell IRINI!!! i remember forgetting to check that project, was trying to remember who/what it was the other day but had no reference point lol awesome. and uh yeah i know the release you mean paha - sure. am trying to rattle through my diss in the next few days, will get it on
|
| JohnnyoftheWell YAY thank you, loved that mix (takes a while to warm up, but s*** damn). not sold on the DJ Metatron LP though hmm
|
| JohnnyoftheWell Does the database have the Traumprinz/DJ Metatron Uterus dj mix?
|
 | Butkuiss Goregrind is 0% about technicalities, it's a hatsuyume, deja vu, nirvana and... I and you. A state of cosmic mind soup, abstract ambiance of the highest caliber. You're a nobody compared to Mortician and other giants of gore... How are YOU gonna deconstruct Will Rahmer?s music if you can't even tie your shoes?
|
| Hawks Sweet will jam soon!
|
| Hawks I'll find it and czech it. I don't have Spotify, don't wanna pay lmao. Been listening on Bandcamp mostly.
|
| Hawks Glue II is the one I jammed I couldn't find the other one lol.
|
| Hawks So I'm digging this Bladee tape SO AHRD.
