I started watching twin peaks for the first time yesterday, on episode 3 now
so...memey...
>Unknown Eskimo DJs - She Be She Strike >Radio Plays, Inuit Vocal Games, Field Recordings, Classic Rock
This is pretty bizarre. This is a 30 minute recording of anonymous Inuit janitors who hijacked a radio station during a strike. Most of it is just them talking or eating food, but they occasionally play a song - either by singing along to some old songs they find or by picking up a guitar off the floor and improvising something (or they might be playing an old Inuit song I don't know, I don't know what they're saying). Some of the covers are very pretty, but most of them are more of a novelty than anything.
I honestly don't know how to rate this. I've never heard anything quite like it.
This is apparently was the holy grail for fans of Inuit radio plays, but I'm not entirely sure how many of those exist.

Steve Reich - Drumming (1st impressions)

Boces has some a few good songs, but it's a long way down from Yerself. Listening to Metal Fingers' (aka MF DOOM) Special Herbs, Vol 1-2.
[spoiler]La passion de Jeanne d'Arc was quite an experience, I agree with the RYM hivemind who wants to ejaculate onto Falconetti's face. I found it to be a bit monotonous at times.[/spoiler]
>>65966846
started summer school and work load has been a lot. Scrambling to finish assignments rn.
on top of that to see the Tim show I had to drive 5 hours both ways with one of my exes and her friends and it was so energy draining.
They all talked drama and who they were fucking and I just sat in silence.
Can't do that shit, stresses me the fuck out, it was worth it for tim tho.

>started summer school and work load has been a lot. Scrambling to finish assignments rn.

Jackie McLean - Destination Out! (1964)
>post-bop
Ultra-sparse and ultra-cool jazz. The brunt of the praise here should honestly go to Grachan Moncur, who composed 3 of the 4 tracks here, and pulls off a great performance on the trombone. But of course, McLean's sax is absolutely incredible, and so are the vibes, jesus christ Bobby Hutcherson is becoming my favorite jazz musician, every single record he's on he just adds so much to, and of course the drumming and bass playing is great. The main issue here is that the longest track here is the weakest by such an insane margin, which definitely proves that Moncur is a superior compser to McLean. "Kahlil the Prophet" is just a generic post-bop track, the other three tracks are interesting in their sparsity and slow pace, this track is just kinda boring. But overall, very good stuff.
3.0+
Aix Em Klemm - Aix Em Klemm (2000)
>ambient, drone
I love me some Stars of the Lid, and I don't know anything about Labradford, so I'll just talk about how much this disappointed me as a SotL fan. This is definitely a very pleasant ambient album, but it just doesn't do much interesting with it's textures and sounds. A major part of most ambient that I like are the melodies, however long and drawn-out they may be, and this record definitely lacks in that department. But I mean, it's earth-shatteringly pretty at times, and I certainly enjoyed myself at least a bit listening to it.
2.5+
Fennesz - Live in Japan (2003)
>glitch, ambient
Immediately you're thrown in to a lovely world of fuzzy glitch and busy ambient, and Fennesz doesn't let up til the performance is over. Honestly I could do without most of the straight up noisy moments, I've never thought Fennesz does noise all too well, but the serene moments are wonderful, and luckily it stays in that territory most of the time.

James Ferraro time!
> Marble Surf
Ambient drone music is boring. Literally the laziest genre of all time. This is basically Disintegration Loops minus 911. Well a little better, but still not great.
> Rerex 1
This one was playful and nostalgic, it reminds me of watching PBS and science tv shows as a kid. Definitely some early vaporwave vibes happening here. The album is similar to Last American Hero or Marble Surf in the sense that it's sort of ambient and that there's a lot of repetition, but the songs evolve so it's more hypnotic and fun to listen to.
> Condo Pets
This was the EP released to build hype for FSV, so it has a similar sound. It's a little more stripped down and seems more focused on rhythm than atmosphere. I'm going to guess that these are FSV outtakes.
Okay I'm losing my mind, I should take a break from Ferraro.
>>65968624

That's a pretty damn long time, Jim. I feel for ya.
>>65968831
At least you've got something now though, right?
the mood that I would have to be in to fully enjoy and understand this is one that I don't think I will ever be able to hold constant. I'd imagine my opinion would change if that did happen.
It was still a good listen but I don't think I'll be trying it out in the near future again.
>>65968624

Kinda surprised you never heard of the dude. I would say start with Either/Or. If you want something more raw with pretty much just guitar/vocals go backwards in his discog. If you want something with more variation/instrumetns go forward. Pretty sad shit.

Not American or primitivism, but the Motifs- cross paths always (and presently) calms me.
Sorry I never got to the reviews, guys. I've been playing Overwatch. Here are some lazy quick reviews.
>Django Reinhardt
I had those whole spiel written out for Django, but it just amounted to describing a few dozen tracks I particularly enjoyed. Not worth reading or writing at all. Just know that this is consistently god-tier swing and jazz guitar for all 6 hours (with surprisingly amazing violin work that is never mentioned).
>9/10
>Close Lobsters - Foxheads Stalk This Land
Decent jangle pop, kind of sound like ever jangle pop act ever but without any notable singles.
>5/10
>Aphex Twin discography
Aphex Twin was cool. 85-92 was kind of lazy-seeming, but had a chill af atmosphere. Richard D. James album was a big step up technically, but not quite as cohesive or atmospheric. Come to Daddy tried way too hard to be edgy. Windowlicker was implementing the RDJ album aesthetic with actually good songwriting and particularly cool sounds. Drukqs was a massive, wild, and surprisingly personal statement. The prepared piano bits were very Erik Satie-esque so I'm glad I just listened to that for proper reference. Syro was a surprisingly warm-sounding album, far from Aphex's usual cold metallic sound, and had an excellent piano piece at the end.
>Slowdive - Soulvaki
Souvlaki was a very nuanced approach to Shoegaze, and worked with a lot of different sounds. All fairly unassuming on their own, but piled together formed a textured, hazy sound. Decent songwriting, but the style was way more interesting.
>7/10
>Tetsu Saitoh - Stone Out
I have never heard an album so ruthless, so indiscriminating in its pursuit of good music. It incorporates elements of jazz, rock, free improv, chamber folk, western classical, and even what sounds like Chinese classical. It reaches incredible, loudly rocking highs and near-lowercase lows. It's bizarre that this isn't more popular here.

> Aoki Takamasa and Tujiko Norko - 28
Man these Glitch Pop albums are just killing it. This one keeps it pretty downtempo throughout but its almost endearing in a way. It kind of feels like if an intimate conversation with your best friend was turned into an amazing glitchy electronic album. Noriko sounds vaguely like Bjork here and overall its all just great. Alien has this motif that sounds like it could fit right into the decade's best hypothetical pop song. Vinyl Words and 26th Floor are both gorgeous from beginning to end.
>>65974103
>I think I'm gonna start doing a review on RYM a day along with my chart starting tomorrow.
I think I might try doing that too. Hope it works out. Also, that is some high praise for 28. Looks cool. I should check it out sometime.

>>65976016
it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

It was like a pixelated Beach, and there was a background that moved that said internet
>>65976116
one has to consider that people actually did read books in 18 hundred and whenever it was written as that was all they had to do for leisure lots of the time, books were also relatively expensive (at least until the advent of mass production of literature) so the author wanted the reader to get the most out of it, they did this often with subplots (see Marmeladov in Crime and Punishment, totally unessessary to the plot until Dostoyevsky eventually figured out a way to shoe him into it [I like Marmeladov, don't kill me])
also there's the fact that books were often produced in journals and magazines with people paying for subscription, so they are by their very nature episodic
this is why older books spend more time on Setup and character building in the first act (it's also why War and Peace and In Search of Lost Time are so bloody long)
Rocketship - Singles 1993-1996

Started listening to Swans the other day.
Love Will Tear Us Apart is such a great cover and probably the nicest thing they've done (that I've heard so far).
I'm going chronologically (apart from a few I don't have yet) and it's pretty intense.
>>65976283
chronologically is probably not the best order in which to listen to M.Gira and the Swans, if you're at Love Will Tear Us Apart already skip Burning World and leave it till after you've heard the 90's side projects (Skin, World of Skin, ect.) and The Angels of Light stuff, you'll have a greater appreciation for it that way
>>65976308

I can understand that. Some of my favorite books are from the 1800s though (Notes from Underground and The Picture of Dorian Gray) and I think they're fantastic. Oh well, I guess pacing just varies from book to book.

Oh man what a matchup. I would've been fine with either TFF or Rocketship winning though desu.
>>65976407
Strange how there's more than one trad album that does this
>>65976270
I don't have a single album in my ratings with that tag, please stop these useless super specific restrictions :/
>>65976365
because he is the crazy cowboy that the world needs
>>65976270
Wait I was searching wrong. Am I right in that you mean descriptors and also that you can't search for those?
>>65976464
it's completely arbitrary mang
the reason is to push people out of the comfort zones
>>65976485
Yeah but making them too specific isn't going to do that. It's just going to be people reccing subpar albums because they just rec the only album that fits the restriction.
>>65976464
literally how
a fuck ton of albums r tagged with that descriptor
>>65976519
I was searching wrong but apparently you can't really search for descriptors? (Or at least not within your ratings?)
>>65976458
It's not really the same kind of thing. The one in this album is more like some cheesy 80s childrens show stuff. After that track they threw in more non-trad elements like synths, pianos and sentimental cheese.
[spoiler] I enjoy some of the cheese [/spoiler]
>>65976532

have 20 minutes of Sharpen Your Teeth left, then I'll hijack the heat and listen to your album, you're very confident though, not about to rig the tourney
Okay, in order to get back into the habit of writing about music, I'm going to start a free form chart. I won't be writing about everything I listen to, just the stuff that I feel like writing about. Here's the first album on the chart.
Ming Flute Ensemble - Chinese Bamboo Flute Music
At first, this was pretty cool. Some well executed fusion with the trad. Then all of a sudden, things started to get pretty lame. The 4th track "The Funy on the Horseback" is normal trad until a cheesy children's show beat comes in and just ruins the track. I don't see what the point of it was and I don't think I ever will. Then, the track after that strips itself of non-trad elements which was good. However, the next track "The Maidens of the Tea Mountain" introduces something new to the album. "What could it be?" one might wonder. The answer to that question is synths (or at least what sound like synths to me). It doesn't blend very well with the traditional instruments and just strikes me as bad. The track after that, "Chatting with an Old Friend by the Window", also adds a new non-trad element to the album. What they decided to bring in one this one was a piano, and a cheesy one too. However I have to admit, it was a pleasant kind of cheese because I'm that kind of pleb. Then comes "The Song of the Four Seasons" which removes the pianos but keeps the synths and adds a cheesy guitar. This is probably the worst track on the album along with "The Funy on the Horseback". Finally we reach "The Crab and The Egret" which is a decent more percussion heavy track which is fine but I don't care for it much here. Overall this album is okay. It's got some very good moments but gets really tacky at times. I'd rec it cause it's an interesting listen but I don't think I'll ever revisit the album outside of the tracks I like.

Hypothetically.
>Urban Sax - s/t
This was very meh. It's minimalistic drone stuff, which imo only works if the atmosphere is great. I'm not exactly sure what they were going for her regarding atmosphere, but it felt like it lacked direction.
-
>Randy Newman - Good Old Boys
Not really big on these kind of american singer/songwriters but this was quite good. Voice is strangely soothing and the lyrics are interesting, I could see this going up to a +
What next? I'm not doing duels btw, best 4 go to next round.
>>65977741
Why would I want to look like a capitalist
>>65977901
I had a feeling Term would beat me in this one.
Melvins - Lysol
man, drone acts really like this one transition in particular, coulda sworn I was listening to Boris
It's decent, nothing spectacular but it does it's job, last three tracks were worse than the first 3
Art Blakey and The Jazz Messangers
pretty good, upbeat jazz
nice drums
that was, huh, wow
First track is definitely the best here, although it's pretty consistent altogether (a quality of which I look for in music)
have no Idea of how to criticism this meaningfully, I should learn music theory more in depth, "It sounded pleasant"
Ugly Casanova - Sharpen Your Teeth
kinda dull, got really exited when I realised that Diggin Holes started playing and it was that one song nobody could find a title for by that mysterious band I was sharing ages ago, but then I realised it was a bonus track on the Youtube clip I was watching from Subpop so I can't even consider it, personally I prefer the mystique of an E6/MM collaboration to be intact but whatevs

Isaac Brock's lyrics and voice are nice, the guitars are a little more country than I would have liked but they're miles better than the stuff Modest Mouse would put out in the later part of the decade

Bill Evans Trio - Waltz for Debby (1st impressions)
What the literal fuck. How is this the 4th Bill Evans album I've heard? Why did nobody tell me about this? This is easily one of the most phenomenal piano jazz albums I've ever heard, and is infinitely more enjoyable than anything else I have heard by him.
Highly recommended.
9.0
>Insect Warfare - World Extermination
Great, great album. I'm very new to the whole grindcore genre, being this one the 2nd album of that genre that i've listened to. In short, i think this album's best aspects is without a doubt is it's textures. The guitars make some of The most interesting yet brutal and spastics riffs i've heard. I like the drums, nice drums. No but seriously the drums manage to pull of The super fast >140 bpm Beat. Incredibly, and very much to my surprise, some songs were very catchy. However, my 2 main Grips to this album have to be the guttural voices, which i still can't get used to, and the length of The songs. I hate listening to songs this short, it's even kind of unbearable. All in all, i think this was a great album and i would recommend it to anyone who was interested in getting into Grindcore like i'm doing right now.
Final Score: 7.5/10
>>65979366
Dude check out his Live at the Village Vanguard stuff. It's amazing
Scenery was alright. It was a slightly forced listen as I was sitting in my room, completely sober, staring at the wall and listening to the music. I think i was missing a glass of whiskey.
I liked the more energetic and frantic parts, It Could Happen to You and Early Summer were my favorite tracks.
>mfw reading a thread about feminism on a default subreddit
Also twin peaks is shit.
>>65979467
I have, I thought it was very good but not excellent. Maybe I'll have to revisit, as I didn't have as much jazz under my belt when I went through my Evans/Miles phase.
>>65979522
no, that's valid. it has a different feel than waltz for debby so i can obviously understand not liking as much.
What's your opinion on Everybody Loves Bill Evans? Explorations is also pretty cool with the overdubs.
>>65979574
Everything I've listened to of Bill Evans fell around the 7/10 mark (incl Everybody Loves & Explorations), but I knew he was capable of much more.
Waltz for Debby is exactly what I wished I was hearing exploring Evans. I think it exemplifies his capability as a player, as well as sets a very high bar for piano jazz trios as far as interplay and atmosphere.
Like I said, I may have to revisit soon though.
(bonus review)
Księżyc - Księżyc [new moon] (1st impressions)
This is like a Polish Comus rooted in slavic folk music. ie. it kicks fucking ass. Emotions range from peaceful and hopeful to jarring and violent. Experimental, without sacrificing any listenability. Very well put together album; the songs are different enough to never lose my interest but manage to fit together as a cohesive piece.

Nick Drake - 5 Leaves Left
Didn't grab me nearly as much as Pink Moon did
Liked the addition of the *ahem* "classical" instruments, and thought it necessary to prop up the songs, there are some good'uns here too
dunno, probably need to revisit
Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
Desolation Row is obviously the best song here, fite me
didn't really think the way that Dylan tried rock here was all that great, seems a bit non commital that the longest track here is a folk ballad, and a ballsy one at 11 minutes in length... besides the point there was a clash of styles here that didn't always go over so well
what next
>>65980285
Dead - Musical Abortions
>>65980285
usually when people say something is undistinguishable noise when it actually isn't it's because they haven't got much experience. how many albums have you heard?
but anyway here's some cool easy music that might help
black tambourine - by tomorrow
sonic youth - daydream nation
unwound - fake train
animal collective - here comes the indian
>>65980397
don't trust this guy tho musical abortion is shit
>>65980397
Scott 4 pls
>>65980426
Thanks, I heard a fair bit of harsh noise and power electronics, but I never really looked into 'normal' noise, I'll investigate those albums.
(I still think SY debut is way better than Daydream Nation desu)
>>65980220
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Ksi%C4%99%C5%BCyc
>>65980471
the records aren't noise but use noisy elements and may help you appreciate it, here comes the indian made me realize how beautiful sounds can be, black tambourine is noise pop, and unwound is heavy noise rock
anyway i don't really think most harsh noise is worth the trouble, of course the exceptions are worth it but i'd avoid the edgy looking garbo

Best post in /daily/ this year.
This is a chart of stuff I've listened to the most in the last two months or so, loosely in order. Rec me awesome stuff.
>Herbie Hancock - Headhunters
Starts really promising with the incredibly tight grooving track Chameleon, the next track, Watermelon Man, pales in comparison. Sly with a more chaotic atmosphere brings this one back on track, I like the sudden changes in tempo and shit. The closer, Vein Melter, slows things down a bit too much and almost gets too cheesy for me sometimes. All in all, everybody is so on point here that sometimes I doubt these were humans playing, but the songwriting isn't always that good imo desu senpai. 7/10, with Chameleon being the standout track.
>>65981544
I think your free jazz choices are pretty bad considering the current scores. Did you specifically ask for ultra-abrasive stuff? If you're not that into free jazz, maybe it'd be better to listen to some stuff that has more melody and is less abrasive or sth.

I asked for free improv that was noisy and really heavy on the drums, but apparently people didn't read and recced me stuff where there aren't even drums featured. I've actually listened to almost everything on there (just giving it another listen before rating), it's not all bad.

>of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?
This album was pretty good there were just a few points that annoyed me. Mainly the repeating of a syllable over and over again to fill space(Cho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ose). Also the lead singers voice didn't really agree with me and i don't really know why. A bit too "cutesy" maybe idk. There were some cool synth parts that i liked and some songs had sick grooves. blue triangle/10

If you've listened to his twee indie pop records first the vocals make a lot more sense because you're like, well, that's how he always sang, but with more glam rock influence now

>Watermelon Man, pales in comparison

>>65982044
>Wire - Chairs Missing
I missed the punkier feel of Pink Flag but it still works well as a more atmospheric album. 4/5
>The Weirdos - Weird World Vol. 1
A lot of average to good punk with some great tracks like Life of Crime and Neutron Bomb. 3/5
>Jute Gyte - Perdurance
Here it is, the most pretentious album of the year. I don't quite understand what I listened to. It's basically black metal with a lot of tempo changes, microtonal guitar, a 808 drum machine, electronic experiments and all of that weird stuff. The music as a whole is extremely ugly and bleak and I can't tell if I like it or not. It's a maze in musical form, it will require multiple listens to deconstruct. The vocals are the only easily noticeable downside, they are kinda flat.
8?/10
>Paul Jebanasam - Continuum
Behind these 3 tracks with cryptic names is a powerful exemple of what I'd call relativistic music. Like pictured in the artwork, listening to this feels like you're moving at the speed of light in a particle accelerator. Everything around you gets blurred out. Your perception on time is distorted : things seems to be moving extremely fast and extremely slow at the same time. The result is frightening and mind-shattering, almost too much for the human mind to grasp.
8/10
>Felicia Atkinson & Jefre Cantu-Ledesma - Comme un seul narcisse
Composed of various field recordings sparsely accompanied by piano and electronics. The additional intrumentation brings the already disjointed an contextless recordings into a more abstract field. Everything is very calm, you hear people talking, a dog, silverware... The titles of the tracks spell out OBJETS MELANCOLIQUES, "melancholic objects" and this melancholy is indeed present throughout all the album.
7/10
>>65981966
How did you make this chart? A topsters alternative?
>>65982272
yo, maybe you'd like Olga Bell - Tempo for this chart :)
Gonna be adding to the chart as I listen to more music or watch more movies. I've heard the albums on there but I want to relisten to all of em.

Scott Walker - Tilt
that was fucking weird
not 'really a huge fan of the vocal style, sounded a bit like Anthony and the Johnsons, although I have had it explained to me by a music student that it is a superior way of singing... Tuco confirmed pleb 2016
it's effective on the first and second track but gets kind of ridiculous after that, I get what he was going for but it doesn't really work that well
the instrumentation is pretty good, suitably spooky scary and psuedo-industrial a v a n t m e m e, can't get over the voice though, might need another listen
Scott Walker - 4
Ok, back on more conventional ground here, his voice is way better on this one because he's not trying to sound silly... not the greatest fan of the scat, or scat in general, bit gross
the instrumentation also is more pastoral and baroque
comparison is inherently unuseful though
it's good, whadya want

Sonic Youth- Confusion is Sex/Kill Yr Idols
Sonic Death is pretty appropriate here. This album is strange, alternating between slow burning creepy sounds (Protect Me You) and full on feedbacky assault (I Wanna Be Yr Dog, Kill Yr Idols, Confusion is Next). One thing that especially stands out is the vocals. I have always been pretty neutral on Sonic Youth's collective singing, but now I have to look at it negatively (on their later albums), after hearing how good it is here, especially Kim, who sounds like a good Lydia Lunch. But mostly, Sonic Youth don't sound like their contemporaries, instead sounding even weirder, trying to create atmosphere instead of just overwhelming with sound. The two drummers here aren't as good as Steve Shelley, but they definitly play well here, especially on Early American. Overall this is a very fantastic noise rock album, and the best SY release I've heard thus far.
