What was the album that did it for you?
The Bends which was the first Radiohead album I've listened to.
>>65384920
The Bends. Their best album IMO. Took me a while for OK Computer and Kid A to click.
>>65384920
I've never listened to a single Radiohead album

First time doing one of these so forgive my newness.
1 and 2 I felt like they were probably 30s-40s era and 2 may have been Louis Armstrong. If not it certainly felt like his style anyway.
3 felt like a later 40s bebop tune to me, maybe Clifford Brown? Could be totally out with that.
4 and 5 I think were both Miles Davis tunes with 4 being a mid 50s hard bop and 5 being a mid-late 60s track just due to its free-er feeling.
After that I lost my way a bit, I could tell we were heading more into the jazz fusion of the 70s. I haven't started listening...

Glad you joined in. I'm finishing up writing down my thoughts and then I'll post mine.
Also (same poster as top post, I'll use an id now) in relation to general blindfold tests, I remember reading a reply that Mingus had written to one of miles Davis' blindfold tests where he attacked Davis for saying Brubeck had no swing. Was pretty funny, especially given the fact that Davis only made an album with Mingus because he had to pay him back for rent I think. I enjoy reading about the relationships between the players at the time, it gives insight into what it was like.
First single off "Cruel Summer"
feat. Quavo, Travis Scott, Gucci Mane, Desiigner, Big Sean, 2 Chainz & Yo Gotti

OP here, they still haven't played it but he's having a pretty great interview rn with Kanye, and this is coming from someone who hasn't liked TLOP but this is pretty damn awesome to listen to.
>>65384147
>>65384149
Kanye is literally just overhyped music held up by sites like Pitchfork as some sort of God.
Kanye is at best a slightly better rapper who manages to get some songs on the radio because normies like him.
Kanyes music will not hold up 20 years from now and will be forgotten.
albums that you thought /mu/ were memeing to you but actually they were good
>>65383921
It's only a slight meme
>>65383921
i can see why got that "meme vibe" from it desu, with the way it's spammed in sharethreads and stuff
>>65383934

Name our band, /mu/

You could call your band Slint
Post lyrics that resonate with you, that make you feel. We've done this thread before, so just post whatever's been hitting you hard lately.

No one loves me
And neither do I
It makes perfect sense
So I never ask why
She suck on that dick on a plane and I just called her airhead
>>65383811
I've always wanted a love that I could call my very own, it seems so little to ask for all I give in return, sometimes it hurts me so bad to have to beg and plead for love.
>get told it's some amazing experimental take on the pop genre with innovating sounds and well written lyrics
>it's just synthpop with reverb
why /mu/?
yeah after listening to their early albums I was really disappointed in this
What is with neo-/mu/s campaign against MPP
>>65383713
because you're using buzzwords that you don't actually know the meaning of but rather the context of which scaruffi amd fantano uses them.
>>65383696
>OP thinks /mu/ is going to follow his low quality bait
Their best album in a while. Super Collider in particular was very disappointing, so it's good to see a return to form.
Hey /mu/ I'm looking for albums that have a nature theme or sound like something you'd listen to on a nice camping trip. Pic very related
>>65383630
Check out William Ackerman, the man who created the record company that recorded Visions of the Country. Third Ear Band also.
>>65384176
Thank you, will do.
i'll get the obvious out of the way in case you haven't heard it yet
>The album is named after a forest near Voigt's hometown of Köln, in which his youthful experiments with LSD provided inspiration for the entire Gas project
I'm convinced there's no such thing as "authentic" weird in music that isnt forced or faked like grimes unless the person is legitimately autistic and doesn't know social norms.
what do you consider weird?
>>65383777
I dont know, stuff that seems a bit off but sincere in thinking that's fine?
Again stuff like grimes and Sia are forced weird that I don't see who the target audience even is
>>65383959
you oughta branch out a little if grimes and sia are you go to examples of weird
