Title: I'm too lazy to look at last.fm and music blogs...recommend new music to me
Post by: Don Flamenco on November 25, 2008, 01:06:29 AM
I've got distinguished mentally-challenged taste in music, but you all can help me!   

The parameters:
--I'm kinda sick of japanese metal, experimental, etc.
--I'm listening to this band Yeasayer that some eb'ers were talking about in another thread and I like it
--not too into hip hop
--i like weird stuff with interesting beats and melodies
--Other artists I've recently discovered and enjoy: broadcast, kavinsky, dan deacon, daedalus
--this is hopeless

GO!

Check out the new Max Tundra album. Cool beats, with some really melodic stuff in there.

This should definitely fit in the 'interesting' camp. His stuff is very cerebral/experimental* but still has beats and melodies for the most part. Sound Unbound was a book first ('Sound Unbound, a collection of writing about sound art, digital media, and contemporary composition with writings from Brian Eno, Jonathan Lethem, Chuck D, Steve Reich, Cory Doctorow, Saul Williams, Pierre Boulez, Mendi & Keith Obadike, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Jaron Lanier, Moby, and many others, edited by DJ Spooky, came out on MIT Press early 2008.') and this is the accompanying CD.

He was basically turned loose on the output of the Sub Rosa label: 'Sub Rosa releases archival material related to twentieth-century avant-garde figures, such as Marcel Duchamp, William Burroughs, James Joyce, and Kurt Schwitters. They have also released material from a number of important electronic music composers (Luc Ferrari, Henri Pousseur, Tod Dockstader, Nam June Paik...), and traditional music from around the world (an anthology of Inuit work, Master Musicians of Joujouka, cantor Ben Baruch, Tibetan and Bhutanese music recorded by John Levy, etc.).'


*DJ Spooky has said that much of his work "deals with the notion of the encoded gesture or the encrypted psychology of how music affects the whole framework of what the essence of 'humaness' [sic] is... To me at this point in the 21st century, the notion of the encoded sound is far more of a dynamic thing, especially when you have these kinds of infodispersion systems running, so I'm fascinated with the unconscious at this point." (yes, he's a bit pretentious...)

if you go latin, go boogaloo, it's a mixture of rnb, soul, and salso/mambo/rhythmic  flavors

I'm taking notes, but I won't be able to listen to or respond properly for a few days.  Too busy with shit  :'(

I also like:  Tortoise, Radiohead, Deerhoof, Atlas Sound, Pavement, Sonic Youth, No Age, Television, Tom Waits...make some recommendations off of that too!

I would like recommendations for any kind of trance or whatever music that will make Wipeout HD an even more awesome experience.  

--either Burnin' Tree or Hello Everything by Squarepusher
--1986 EP by Kavinsky

Here are some of the songs I have on my PS3 at the moment... one of the things that kinda sucks about importing edm into Wipeout is that by the time you get through the opening beats and into the song, the race is nearly over.

-Sasha - Xpander (from Wip3out)
-Jaytech - Genesis (Jimbo's Afterburner mix)
-DJ Tiesto - Suburban Train
-Michael Cassette - Shadows Movement
-Jay Lumen - In Love
-John Dahlback - Pyramid
-Hybrid - Finished Symphony
-Hybrid - Kill City
-Matt Rowan and Jaytech - Tomorrow
-Christian Smith - Flyertalk
