Congratulations. You all officially have "really good" taste in music.

I'm "fed up" with feeding and clothing my family with my hard earned money and now want to start spending my money on listening to some new music. I might even venture out to some "concerts (gigs)" if I can.

The next stage is up to you all. Recommend some good new "music" to an old man out of touch with anything and everything that has happened in the music "world" in the last 5 years.

You are the only ones I can trust with this important task. If anybody else feels the need to recommend then feel free. The "ignore" facility is hugely underrated in my mind.

Sorry if I've forgotten anybody else who doesn't have shit taste in music.

Thanks for the honour.

I don't really know what kind of music you're into, but i'd try and listen to Julia Holter's new album called "Ekstasis". It's somewhere in the realms of ambient folk with weird song structures and very fine female voice.



To level things out, I'd recommend trying Pharaoh Overlord's "Lunar Jetman". It's heavy, yet enternaining. Space/stoner rock from Finland. One of the top albums of 2012 for me so far.

What an excellent start. I see good things coming from this thread.

To be honest I'm not really into any particular type of music. I've always liked a wide range of music but always liked listening to something new.

And quite frankly I'm boring myself with my music at the moment. If I do buy anything it's just always the same type of thing. I found myself looking forward to the new Doseone album but at the same time thinking there must be something way more interesting than that to spend my time and money on.

You and all the others I mentioned always talk about new interesting sounding music.

LOL! Thanks. Uhhh you might have a change of heart after this post(about my "not shit" taste in music), but....lately, I've been just into k-pop and some j-pop(thanks to Ghostchase!)

That's my playlist for pop. Which is basically the list of groups that I've been exclusively listening to.



I'll get back to work now.

the new One Direction album is amazing

I forgot Nefeli!

I'm making you a mixtape as well as coming up with a playlist for a DJ night in a Dalston pub and doing some artwork for my tape on TBR. This is how productive I am, really.

Rock-wise, there's not an awful lot that's getting me excited these days, but The Men and Sunflare get big thumbs ups.

In a more poppy (Blondie / Shop Assistants) vein, Dum Dum Girls is cool - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52xJk2VA5Bw

I'm liking quite a lot of what the genre-namers are calling dub techno, especially BVDub and Echospace.

And finally, my current obsession, if you want to shuffle awkwardly from one foot to the other on the edge of a dancefloor, I highly recommend Astral Social Club's recent output, notably this: http://astralsocialclub.bigcartel.co...ct/happy-horse, and pretty much any of the "technoise" that gets a mention in this article: http://www.residentadvisor.net/feature.aspx?1524.

Oh yeah, and I'm quite taken with Motion Sickness of Time Travel.

I'll try and get round to posting some youtube links some time.

Anyway, how's the family? May I remind you of the existence of this thread: http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/showthread.php?t=8662

I'd recommend a few but I have horrible taste in music. Please forgive me and good luck getting in touch with everything around you!

seriously though, check out the new Young Prisms album

Acid Mothers Temple is the way to go. ANY album!

This is the one! I'm going to go and get this TODAY.

Apparently HMV are doing a deal. Buy the Young Prisms album and get the entire Mazzy Star back catalogue absolutely free!



:rolleyes:

Thanks for this and thanks in advance for the mixtape! I'll pm my address as soon as I find it.

I've been enjoying Get Drunk & Play Records as recommended by you.

That would be good but at the moment I have very little that would be worth putting on a mixtape. And I was rubbish at organising it anyway. And I can't record onto tapes at the moment!

I'll be checking these out forthwith.
Very Shop Assistants! I'll have to listen to more!
Lots to keep me busy investigating there thanks.The family are all really well. I was listening to some Steve Reich recently and it reminded me of our jaunt to see Steve Reich at 70 at the Barbican with porky. I remember talking about the imminent birth of my second child and now that second child is a galumphing 5 year old. Having children definitely makes time pass much more quickly.
That was a fine thread at one point. The trouble is that a lot of the parents (Kegmama:( ) are no longer here at the thread got taken over by some nitwits .

I've never been massively taken with AMT. Tell me an indispensable album of their's and I'll check it out.

I'm struggling to think what to suggest. It's all jazz, classical and 'world' stuff round here of late, plus a lot of music by people I know.

I'll tell you what, the Bang the Bore 6 CD compilation (here) is well worth a punt - several hours of top quality stuff ranging from EAI, free improv, olde-timey noise, Psych, sound-art, folk-hybrid stuff, laptop squiddle - well worth a punt. And hopefully I'd say that even if I didn't have a vested interest.

One of the best things I've heard recently is an archive programme from BBC radio 1 of Andy Kershaw in Zimbabwe in 1988 - here. Really, seriously worth a listen, it's kind of touching and features loads of great soukous, which is always good.

Oh, and Hardcore Heaven from last year - apart from Joey Riot being SHIT now, it's one of the better Hardcore collections I've picked up of late.

If I can recommend a whole label:

I particularly like:

in all seriousness, some of you are the most boring people I've ever bothered to give my attention to, and the fact that there is such a thread honoring a miserable bunch only makes me want to kill myself even more. Thanks.

yeah, some horrible music posted on this thread.

We don't care. Did you not get it yet?

despite my lack of concern about whether anyone cares or not, it's nice to see that you can speak on the behalf of everyone else. "WE" don't care. Ok. Just further reinforces my point.

Ok, now you know.

I'm just being a patronising cunt. It's my nature, did you not get it?

Ok. You are a patronising cunt then.

Ok. And a noob, too. I joined two years ago instead of three, Goddamnit.

Don't think it's worth getting het up about it. Pookie's been here yonks and trusts the tastes of the people he named. Largely because they've also been here yonks, under various names.

['Yonks' is a British slang term meaning 'an indeterminate long time]

CRIMEWAVE from Houston TX.

sure it did.... shame.:(

Seconded.

lol

Bless you all. Not all of you obviously.

Tomorrow I have most of the day to myself so I'll listen to some of your recommendations whilst eating cakes.

Never mind the music, how were the cakes?

In for some softer sounds? Ai Aso. Her album Chamomile Pool is beautiful.

here's one track from it.
