I've given up on topsters, time for a tourney.
36 entries. No more. No less.
I'll have it done before the end of the month, probably within the weeks.
Rules are they can't be already rated on https://rateyourmusic.com/~papasmurph1 , you must have a trip and visit once every two days while the tourney is ongoing, and reccs can't be more than a couple hours long unless you really need to.
Entries should be on slsk or the archive or provided by the user.
Also, can someone teach me how to insert a background to this on paint.net? I have no idea how to use this software.

no idea, i just knew that i'd wishlisted a different album by them so i could look it up quick
the tags look cool but they're kinda broad tags so they could easily be misleading
>>63792821
it's good. Гpaждaнcкaя oбopoнa and it's side projects are usually pretty consistently decent.
As I'm well again and finally in a comfortable regime, I will be finishing round 1 of the tourney I started a while back. Expect results within 24 hours.

Goes for anyone. I want to get this tourney done within a few weeks. No waiting on anyone.

Oh, okay, maybe I can find something before wörk
>>63793097
nah, you'll be good, I just want to make sure everyone knows I'm not gonna leave spots open since I'll have to manage 32 trips. Feel free to wait till after work :3

Idk why but this board's gotten super toxic recently. Like, it's always been bad, but it's gotten a bit worse recently. I also noticed that as soon as poseur-core started picking up steam the Jason Aldean posts died down. I'd be willing to bet it's the same guy(s).
>>63793145
I haven't heard a bad album by the guy yet. He's amazing.
How old is that tourney?
>>63793187
started in december i think. hopefully i get it done soon so it doesn't take me the whole year like the last one.
>>63793215

Jesus. I can't imagine doing a chart like that for 1/3 of a year.
Has anyone here listened to this? Is it worth my time?

I made this chart years ago and wish it would just die. It's inaccurate and has a lot of bad shit on it.
However, these albums are worth checking out.
>Die Sektor - To Be Fed Upon
Edgy, but damn good. Top aggrotech album, sweet production all around that you will be able to appreciate, even if you are not an aggrotech fan.
>Grendel - Harsh Generation
Euro as fuck. but extremely loveable. Strong cyberpunk vibes all over. Musically stronger than most aggrotech, there's a considerable amount of good harmonies and synths to be found here.
>Aesthetic Perfection - A Violent Emotion
Passionate anger and actually had way more variety than most aggrotech. It's got a bunch of angry aggrotech club songs, but it's far from mindless.
>Psyclon Nine - Divine Infekt
Got some decent cyberpunk vibes going on, unique production for aggrocrap. It's a cheese fest though and inconsistent. But the better songs are what make it truly worthwhile.
>Mindless Faith - Medication for the Misinformed
Shouldn't even really be here. Good electro-industrial/EBM, also unique sounding and is packed infectiously danceable beats.
1/2
>>63793583
just saw Halycon Digest. My b
>>63793583
Thanks for the first 3 recs, not familiar with them and will def listen. I've heard about Townes Van Zandt and don't know much other than he's a country artist.
I've heard those albums except for John Fahey and love them. Halcyon Digest and Ween are on my chart lol
>>63793588
Love this album too.
I feel like I forgot a few when I filled that chart out. Like Pet Sounds, some Pavement record, and You're Living All Over Me should be on there.
>>63793560
I'm not really familiar with this thread at all. I just thought it was a general music discussion thread where people post their favorite albums/what they've been listening to and you just rec each other based on that.
>>63793640
>:wumpscut: - Embryodead
Not truly aggrotech, but more of a precessor of it and one of the bands who helped lay its foundation. Solid electro-industrial, probably the biggest classic of all for EBM fans on this list. Definitely recommend it. If you liked it, check out Wreath of Barbs by him as well.
>Dioxyde - Social Phobia
One half of it is a little bleak, the other half of it is strong dark electro and EBM influenced aggrotech. Musically very strong, solid production and exceptional composition for aggrotech, The vocals are even harsh, yet intelligible. Definitely go for this one.
>The Retrosic - God of Hell
Enjoyable electro-industrial/aggrotech. Also unique in this sea of supersaw fart synths.
>Aslan Faction - Blunt Force Trauma
Slightly dated production, sort of cheesy and inconsistent. But somehow, that is the charm here. More or less worth checking out.
>Combichrist - What the Fuck is Wrong With You People?
Absolutely hated by elitists, one of the most poppy aggrotech acts every to have spawned and contributed to fucking up the EBM scene as a whole. Yet, this album has some catchy music on it that shines like a light in the muddled career of the band. You might like it.

Good Morning /daily/!
Downloaded Torts' new album, listening now.
has anyone heard the new The Drones album?? thoughts? also the new Frankie Cosmos?
>>63793768
Thanks could always use more funk recs.
The Meters and Public Enemy are good shit.
GUYS
My tourney ( >>63792400 ) has 32 entries total and 26 spots open. Literally no reason not to join. Please join pls ;_;
>>63793763
>Centhron - Roter Stern
Aggrotech club garbage at its finest. At least, it would be, if [x]-Rx and Eisenfunk weren't on this list (I seriously hate those two bands.) However, despite it embracing all that is garbage about aggotech, it's surprisingly good and often enjoyed by people who are not a fan of the genre. Tight production, very hard hitting and very danceable. Ultimately turns aggrotech's weaknesses into its strengths.
And not on the chart, but you should check it out:
>C-Drone-Defect - Dystopia
Orchestral influenced aggrotech. Sounds huge, is very original, even innovative but heavily underrated. I would say this is the most sophisticated aggrotech act I have seen so far.
>Chrysalide - Personal Revolution
Not precisely aggrotech, but influenced by it. Minimal-like electro-industrial which takes influence from a lot of other genres, such as techno, dubstep and trap. Inconstent, but has some absolute banging tracks. Definitely recommended if you happen to dig one of the releases on here.
Enjoy the listening.
>>63793410
>there dont seem to be any aggrotech experts on daily or mu yet
Reporting in m8. I have a big distaste for the genre nowadays though. Most of it is an endless sea of basically dumb goth EDM. Can't get around the angsty or edgy themes, emotionally immature lyrics, over-abused supersaw synths, distorted beats and goblin fart vocals.
>>63792400
Solar Fields - Leaving Home
>>63793440
With all those shoegaze, dream pop, and indie pop, I would rec
>Black Tambourines - Throw Aggi Off the Bridge
>the rest of MBV's discography, especially the EPs
>Quickspace - Precious Falling
>The Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy
>Galaxie 500 - Today
>Bowery Electric - Beat
>Dadamah - This is Not a Dream
From all those hip-hop and rap albums, I would rec
>Lil Ugly Mane - Uneven Compromise
>Any album by Dälek
>New Kingdom - Paradise Don't Come Cheap
>Edan - Beauty and the Beat
>Quasimoto - The Unseen
>Man Bites Dog - Noir
I'm most confident in the recs at the top of each list, and less confident with the recs at the bottom. Not bad taste, btw.
>>63793503

I know MBV/Black Tambourine/Galaxie 500/Psychocandy. Black Tambourine is a band I haven't listened to in a while but I do love them and that song in particular. MBV were my favorite band for the longest time.
The hip hop recs tho have not heard any of these. Listening to Lil Ugly Mane right now and it's dope and I kinda wish I had weed right now for this.

Hello friend, would you like to reccomend me some music pham?
I like alternative rock mostly, I like OK Computer the most out of Radiohead's albums, then In Rainbows and third The Bends bc meme
Nirvana is meme gimmicks, but that's as in for the lyrics since the instrumental in most of them are ok-good
Blur is also good, I have their Blur album, Modern Life is Rubbish and 13
I only have one album of Oasis and it's What's the Story (Morning Glory) and as you can guess, yeah, I did liked Wonderwall, partly because of a girlfriend I had that also loved that song and it was the first song I learned to play on guitar
I love how the guitar sounds, in most of its forms
>Climbing up the walls (OK Computer)
>Karma Police (OK Computer)
>My Iron Lung (The Bends)
>JUST (The Bends)
>You're so great (Blur)
>For Tomorrow (MLiR)
>Wonderwall (WTS?(MN))
Yeah, I'm a normie, sorry in advance
>>63794042
Yeah the Lil Ugly Mane rec was based off the Death Grips releases on the chart. If you're a huge DG fan I can assure you you'd also enjoy Paradise Don't Come Cheap. I got it from a DG-core chart a while ago, and it's got this excellent Las Vegas desert vibe.
>https://youtu.be/c09EeU2V0jE

Looks promising. I've been meaning to make a 2016 to-listen chart, but I'm way too lazy to make one without Topster.

>For Tomorrow
These are legit great songs.
>>63794194
Thanks man
Yeah, Song 2 is also top tier banter from Blur to Nirvana and calls them out for their gimmick lyrics and rockability? instrumental part
>>63794165
start listening to everything that influenced Radiohead. Can, Faust, Penderecki,Neil Young, Miles Davis. Charles Mingus, R.E.M., Pixies. Don't forget Jonny's solo stuff,
I'm listening to m b v for the first time, that last part of In Another Way is amazing
>>63794291
Thanks man, will look into it
Album reccs of those bands/artists?
Could I get some recommendations on what to listen to next, based on what I like? I'd be thankful, feeling sort of lost in this already.
>>63794223
I've hardly ever been on the britpop side of the alt rock equation so it's harder for me to recommend stuff to you. That said you might like
The Fall - This Nation's Saving Grace
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain
Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me
Slowdive - Souvlaki
>>63794336
Np on reccomending american stuff dude! I'm not even British...
>>63794319
>Faust - So Far and IV
>Can - Ege Bamyasi, Monster Movie, Tago Mago, Future Days
>For Penderecki listen to the split he did with Jonny of Polymorphia/ 48 Responses to Polymorphia.
>Neil Young - After the Gold Rush, Harvest
>Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue and Bitches Brew
>Charles Mingus -The Black Saint and The Sinner Lady
>R.E.M. - Document
>Pixies - first 4 albums
For Jonny's solo work, look into Bodysong, the Doghouse piece, Norwegian Wood,There Will Be Blood and The Master soundtracks.
>>63794448
Half of those are american and half british, to be on the safe side.
All fairly accessible, guitar-focused albums.
I'd say start from the bottom of dogwander's list.
>>63794461
>>63794507
Thanks both of you guys, you're awesome
>>63794165
Did my recs seem particularly normie-relatable or something?
>The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico
If you haven't listened to it already, it should be a prerequisite for "alt rock" et al. Even if you don't like the album, it's an incredibly important listen. Their follow-up album rocks way harder though.
>>63794335
I'd say this to you too m8
My favorite noisy guitar sounds on albums that you might enjoy...
>Neutral Milk Hotel - On Avery Island
https://youtu.be/u84f2wdl6f4
>Built to Spill - Perfect From Now On
https://youtu.be/ymf67ilj1rA
>Pixies - Surfer Rosa
https://youtu.be/xJncHEZ3URs
Tell me if you want weirder recs
>Nirvana is meme gimmicks
Too true, but Kurt knew his shit. Any of his top 50 favorite albums are worth checking out.
>>63794335
You'd enjoy that Jesus Lizard album a lot imo. Give it a few songs to get going. The guitar sound on Nub is godly.
>>63794626
>using On Avery to get alt rockers into indie/folk
That's brilliant actually
>>63794626
Noted, thanks!
Going to bed now, so won't reply anymore. But please do give other recs and I will come back to them.
Btw anyone got any techno recs? I think I already asked this, but I can't remember if I saw any responses.
I'd prefer minimal techno, I think?
>>63794746
You should check out Basic Channel if you like minimal techno.
>>63794335
put maggot brain, sky valley, shape of punk to come, hammerheart and doolittle on yr short list
>>63794746
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEE76S8o18w
I'm not very knowledgeable on minimal techno, but Black Asteroid - Engine 1 is some great stuff. It's probably not even strictly minimal techno. Though, it's only on an EP, along with 3 other inferior versions of it. So you're well off listening to just this.
Going to bed for real this time, goodnight /mu/.

sure but don't feel obligated to do so!
I'm in dire need of some recs. Anything goes, but I have been in love with pic related recently, so recs similar to that would be nice. I'm a complete jazz/bop pleb, though I have listened to a fair bit of the essentials (A Love Supreme, Bitches Brew, etc.)

There are two Charles Mackerras recordings of Glagolitic Mass and the only one I can find is the one that you corrected. You posted different artwork afterwards which I think has some Czech Symphony Orchestra instead of the Danish one? Does it matter? If it does, can you upload the Czech one?

>Fred Lonberg-Holm & Paal Nilssen-Love - You Can Be Mine
Brutal wank. It's hard to imagine that Lonberg-Holm is really playing the cello here. Nice drums as they say. Did not enjoy that much.
7/10
>Rovo - Tonic 2001
Fantastic live album. It sounds like Vision Creation Newsun, not surprising considering both bands share the same guitarist. It's so entrancing and fun that the 2 hours length is not really a problem. Also, you can't go wrong when playing psychedelic rock with some guy improvising on his Conrad-esque violin. Nice drums too btw.

Just finished listening to Lumpy Gravy.
I enjoyed it, feeling a 3.5/5 || medium 7 / 10
But I'd be quite interested to hear any discussion from you guys; what did you think of it?
i guarantee if you search up "laughable" or "precious" in the archive you'll find the same three people complaining about daily.
>>63800377
Don't recall ever using any of those words so make it 4, fag.
>spending time on digging through the fucking archive for meanies badmouthing your sad little circlejerk
I thought /daily/ was too cool and ironic to care about this sort of thing?
I really like the charm of this record, but like with Brel, I find my enjoyment is quite limited because I can't understand the lyrics (though much less here, as it's a pop record, so less about the contents of the lyrics probably and more about the feeling they conjure)

You can't make this shit up.

Yes, okay, but I'd like to do that after I watch one of those movies, so which one?
>>63800578
thanks
(how do you know my age though?)
>>63800578
(You)
>>63800578
so if someone hasn't heard that music or seen those movies by the time they are 17, they shouldn't be allowed to watch or appreciate them?
>>63800590
Because underage peeps aren't allowed to post on 4chan.
You aren't underage, now are you?
>>63800597
I didn't say that. I just thought that the tripfag who just discovered a bunch of IMDB lists of art films and /mu/ chart threads calling himself Eruditey was fucking funny.
>>63800537
Unrelated to those, you should also look into the Acent, a film with similar themes made by Larisa Shepitko (who was married to Klimov).
And Watch Wings of Desire because Cave's in it.
>>63799952
I like both about the same personally.

Dumb thing to say because you paid no attention to the chart. He is droning other daily users and he obviously states so. Besides, what makes you think that everyone explores art at the same pace as you do?
>Assumption 2: Him calling himself Eruditey is funny.
How can you be sure that he isn't a chess grossmeister? Maybe he is an engineering prodigy? More claims.

>Bob Dylan - s/t
It's not too bad, starts off fairly solid but it gets pretty same-y and just gets pretty boring. The harmonica is a nice touch but it starts to get a bit grating towards the end of the album.
5/10
>TFUL282 - Strangers From The Universe
Great album. I love that 90s indie rock sound as it is but these guys put an interesting experimental twist on it. It blends humour and beauty in a way I've only heard from Ween before. If there's any complaints it's that the "feller filler," whilst incredible at some points, does seem a bit unnecessary at times.
8/10 will probably go up after more listens
What should I listen to next?
>>63800911

>>63800921
I've listened to her first four albums albeit not too much. I liked what I heard though, especially Vespertine.
After a little hiatus, I'm back at the chart again.
>Jimmy Lyons - Other Afternoons
Holy shit everyone is playing so well here. This is the first Lyons I'm hearing and I must say he is incredibly underrated. Alan Silva has a great solo on this as well, just go and pick this record up if you can. (Also However is a top tier track)
9~8.5/10

I'm currently listening to Dog's pick for my tourney and it's really great so far.
Also considering applying for a position in our uni's culture board thingy as a film programmer/pr person, because I'd meet other students with similar interests + I'd meet a lot of the important people in film in my city. I'm not all to sure about the time investment though, so still contemplating.
Also trying to write a paper on the two-sided absolutist representation of the NSA in the media, but I can't really find any good sources so far, so may have to switch subjects.

Holy moly, I'm getting shivers. I left this record for last in the first round of my tournament on some kind of whim, and I'm so glad I did. It makes my heart pound.
>>63800911
Listen to more TFUL282 when you get the chance. Their whole discography is solid. I'm not a huge fan of their later work, but it's still good.

Kurt Vile - Wakin on a Pretty Daze
This has a really solid opening pretty dreamin swood stuff guy
I can see my dad liking this, the songs are long and lock into this groove that has you walking to it's beat man, I dig it so much
Watsonian Institute - Master Funk
Eh, not as funky as I would have liked for an album called master funk, maybe because I've cherry picked the very best of the genre listening to funkadelic and earth wind and fire, maybe I have the Loveless effect going on (where every album in a given genre is just not worth listening to anymore)
Back from work, heard that Watch me whip song on the radio for the first time and it was absolutely disgusting.
Relistening to Torts' new album now
>>63802064
Yes, he could be you.
>>63802039
>cool. Storage is probably the best Merzbow I've heard.
Yeah, I like it too. I feel it needs some sort of climax or catharsis, though, but it is really interesting to listen to and has a lot to decipher. Lot of depth. I would love to know how he made it.
>>63802064
What do you mean, dear anon? :-) I am studying political science at uni, so Machiavelli is sort of a must to know about. In fact, I am writing a comparative analysis of him and Aristoteles on thursday so I sort of need to know what kind of dude he was.

Baby Huey & Andrew Hill.

opinions I guess :-(
>>63802168
andrew hill, ewa demarczyk, amon duul ii, fela kuti, fahey, bach.
those are probably the ones with the highest chances, I haven't found any other penderecki works all that good except matrix 5.
>>63802168
I do not know your taste but The Baby Huey Story is good. That gamelan record is interesting too.
>>63802168
>whats some great stuff on there
Chet Baker Sings is great and is a favorite of mine
however you gave another favorite of mine, The Koln Concert a 6 so I dunno
>>63802197
I gave it a 6 purely based on the fact that I hat Harsichord, if it were a Piano, it probably would've got higher
>>63802290

Yeah kind of having a hard time deciding a good score. Most stuff end up being sex or sevens unfortunately and I think I just need a break from forcing myself to listen to stuff. I might listen to all of it and just not rate it maybe
>>63802351
or just simplify it to 'bad' 'average' 'good'? or maybe even 'bad', 'good'?
>>63802360
It already is, red is unenjoyable, yellow is mediocre, light green is enjoyable, dark green is good, blue is great. Will still only end up with different shades of green

oh.
btw, as you're maybe/probably better versed in this than I am: what are you going to do with the referendum and why? Imo, it's not really a question for a referendum so I don't really want to vote (plus I think it's stupid that GeenPeil just wanted a referendum and as I view it, didn't really pick this thing because they wanted it overturned, although it probably is sth with the EU on purpose, I don't know)
but the bottom line is that I kind of feel bad if I don't vote, for whatever reason. Is there like a detailed explanation of the subject somewhere? I'm not about the read 100s of pages
>>63802442
I don't know, what do you like? The theoretical stuff, philosophy of science or methodology or what?

Alright, round 1 is in! Sorry about the time this took to get going, with my indeterminate schedule I was just picking albums off my other chart, but now I can get back into this.
Nobody has been knocked out yet, as we've just populated the losers' bracket. No restrictions for round 2.
>>63802691
>BB King - Live At The Regal [Tripfriend]
Really hearty and lively; I especially enjoy the evidence of showmanship and encouraging variety out of the by-appearances-limiting blues chord structure. 7.5
>Big Moe - City of Syrup [Hasture]
The beats are just incredibly refreshing and his lyrics and intonation have the "summer classic" vibe - y'know, the lawns are green, drinks in the back, roof off the car. Brings good memories. 7.0
>Voyager Golden Record [I'm Fish]
...Not really sure how I should rate this, but I can't help but be disengaged by it, even after its significance's implications. Maybe because each piece aimed to represent a time, style or culture, they feel blueprint. Afraid I can't really explain it. 5.0
>Bone Awl / The Rita - Bone Awl / The Rita [Herb]
The Rita's foamy bubbling has Bone Awl rise to give a subtle, barely discernible structure to the chaos. This is one of my fetishes. I love this controlled madness, the Rita's jagged edges are soft and closer to Prurient, and they devour the faint guitar wails whenever they rise on behalf of Bone Awl. This is my kind of beautiful - 9.0
>Wha-ha-ha - Shinu Toki wa Betsu [Misha]
I like how Misha is giving me a band called Whahaha. I also like this kind of controlled chaos - that is, that kind where it's focused playing to produce bananas-type songs. Gives me P-Model vibes for sure, but maybe a bit too much improv? 6.5
>Robert Ashley - Private Parts [Benji]
The appeal for me is actually how soothing the gentle undulations of the instrumentation pair with the narration. It's like it was made to directly produce the relaxation release of an audiobook. 6.5
>Smog - The Doctor Came At Dawn [yamir]
The amount of rust would've sunk that there ship on the sea. It's that groaning wood aesthetic that made me love Smiling Dogs. Great stuff, although I think the second half trumps the first with the beasts like All Your Women Things, Four Hearts in a Can. 7.0
>>63802620
Dopethrone is marijuana consumption, Fake Train is vandalism. Both pretty edgy and illegal if you ask me.
>>63802793
>The Cardigans - Life [Eruditey]
It's not outstanding, just some solid catchy indie pop. Doesn't really do any wrong, nor does it exceed expectations. I actually don't like it for precisely that reason. sorry ;-; 4.5
>Nalle - Wilder Shores of Love [good friend rodriguez]
Good, reminds me of Urunosora without the sugary pink filter, in that it feels isolated and sad - the kind of cold and lonely that brings vivid imagery, although there is dynamic range, it's got that world-in-a-bubble atmosphere that I appreciate. 7.0
>Muddy Waters - Folk Singer [Torts]
This is cosy. So super cosy, with a lovely singer that also takes you on his journey. Although it didn't really entice any extra feelings from me, the gentle cruise and his oodles of style make it worthwhile. 6.0
>Movietone - Day and Night [GZO]
Unfortunately not my thing, everything kind of melts together because it's all a bit TOO hushed and intimate. The track Useless Landscape was alright, gentle chugging rhythm there - but otherwise not my cuppa. 3.5
>Subtle - For Hero, For Fool [Sn]
Hip hop feeling like a big procession with lots of colouration and imagery. One of the more stylish hip-hop records I've heard recently, although the effect wears off after a while. I feel a 6 but I'm tempted to return to this, it's caught my interest.
>>63802812
>Ryuichi Sakamoto - Thousand Knives Of [Damo Eye]
This is genuinely so amazing, I'm so happy this exists. He's centralised all those wild, free-running ideas in his mind - something I've wanted to do forever - and expressed himself. It's a genius fusion of I can't name how many genres. I'm high off of excitement. 10
>GFOTY - Cake Mix [Kanzler]
I like it dude, I'm starting to warm to PC Music now. I still think I prefer the side-cruise that is music on stuff like Activia Benz, and to a certain extent Orange Milk, etc. But this was a good, brief and fun-spirited mix. 7.5
>Jai Paul - BTSTU [co]
I mean, I love the sound, but I'd like to see more done with it. Seems a bit indefinite and unclear - I feel like he should've put in some extra tracks for well needed flourishes, make himself an EP out of this. 6.0
>Jambinai - Difference [nyarlathotep]
Great stuff, really beautiful post-rock that flows very smoothly through its different fusions. I can't really say much more, it's won me. 8.0

>Iron - A Being So Great
I’ll try to be concise but critical.
+: all the instrumentations, reoccurring loops (and the slight variety in their progressions), several moments where the synths sounded like actual musical boxes with complex harmonies, the kaleidoscopic piano on the closer.
-: the closing section of I. Tennis Practice & An Aura had a very bare synth progression, the 22 minute track would probably benefit from more variety in-between the chord changes.
I definitely liked Feeling Buried better, but this was good too! If I was you, Torts I would probably try to implement a unique element to the longer tracks like the sax playing from your first album. It's a centerpiece and I feel like it could be much more powerful if 10 minutes in something like a sax solo section happened. Then again, it is just my opinion.
7/10
>>63802593
I don't think a minority of Dutch people are qualified to overthrow a decision made by 28 countries that mostly concerns a country that is not the Netherlands. In addition, as you mentioned the referendum was created more as a way to annoy the EU and, from GeenStijl's side, to gain attention and money (they had been dropped by Telegraaf Media Groep right before the referendum law was signed, so they just took that opportunity to gain more attention and got picked back up by TMG as a result). There's also the problem that a: I'm not a fan of referendums, b: I'm especially not a fan of the Dutch referendum with its 30% minimum voter turnout (which encourages strategic voting) and c: I'm completely against this referendum due to the fact that it's about a subject that most people don't know jack shit about.
So yeah, I'm principally against it as a whole and won't vote, despite my newly acquired right to vote. In terms of whether the EU-Ukraine treaty is wrong or right, there's strong arguments for and against it once you look past the bullshit spewed by Jan Roos & friends on one side and the establishment clique on the other side. Here's a few things that might inform you further:

Political philosophy is my shit. I know about a number of the main thinkers in it, but I mostly want to know what their essential books are, if they are somewhat good to read or if I should grab some secondary literature instead, etc. Just throw anything my way.

I listened to circlesongs, which is an entertaining a capella album interesting enough to not bore me, unlike other stuff I've run into.
This is not okey-dokey

I wasn't fully on board for World of Echo so listening to Another Thought is oddly refreshing for me.
No wonder Yamashita is listed as a pianist and as a percussionist. Shit is bonkers.
>>63803187
thank you!! :)
those articles are of great help. Your own opinion is quite literally my own, so it's good to know I'm not crazy.
Still don't really know what to do though. I feel dirty not voting purely because I don't want them to get to 30% and according to some polls they will probably get 30% anyway, so maybe I'll just vote yes, but we'll see.
Thanks again :)

Not particularly interesting or noteworthy next to their other albums. You know the formula by now. Just no discernible direction or riff to lead this though. I'd only listen to it if I were in really in the mood for this brand of music. 6/10

You could also vote blank, I suppose, but I feel like that's mostly just an endorsement for the referendum an sich, and the referendum's shite, so eh.
>(also, is Jan Roos officially the biggest douchebag in the world, goddamn)
Yes, absolutely. He is despicable, racist, sexist scum with the most annoying attitude known to mankind. I also despise Thierry Baudet, so they really couldn't have had a worse selection of people to promote the referendum.

Honestly, if your curriculum is put together in any remotely similar fashion to mine, you will not have much time to read much outside of that. Secondary litterature is the winner for political philosophy because you, as a student, will not come to any revolutionary understanding of say, Hobbes or Locke. Leo Strauss is a good take for secondary interpretive litterature in political philosophy. All the main works, you will get acquainted with anyway, so there is not much point in recommending them. I have an English translation of Plato's Republic, by Allan Bloom, if you are interested. Otherwise, Political Thinkers by Boucher and Kelly (2003) is a good introduction but you will probably get that on your curriculum if your political theories lecturer knows what (s)he is doing.
For some fun, check out How to Defend Society Against Science by Feyerabend and the paradigm theory of Lakatos; both are pretty interesting epistemological observations about the philosophy of science, just for a detour. Just make sure to find something that puts paradigme theory in context with political science.
>>63803187
>I'm not a fan of referendums
This is interesting to me. Why not?
>>63803879
yeah Thierry Baudet is so fucking stupid, he quite literally thinks of women as prey. Also the way he fashions himself a 'scholar' is so fucking annoying, holy shit.
>tfw you reply to a comment on Swans' official FB page and Swans themselves like your post
yes but now I liked it too, which seems slightly cooler to me.
also the person who you were replying to, neaaarly does the 'and the list goes on...', which I thought was very funny.

Not that big of a fan. Tbh Jandek doesn't really get truly depressing up until the spoken word trilogy and I Threw You Away.

The problem with direct democracy is that, realistically speaking, most people can't make a proper assessment of the costs and benefits that come with a certain political matter. This is especially true in an age of interdependence, where many a political decision (especially one with regards to the EU) has an effect on so many different actors with conflicting interests that I feel it's unjust to let regular citizens with (on average) little understanding of politics make a decision about it. These things are better left to elected politicians, who should have much more expertise in such matters.
I do think referendums could work in certain cases, especially on a more local level, where citizens can see the direct consequences of a certain policy (and I'm quite interested in possibilities for a political system where subsidiarity is pushed through even more than it is as of now). More global matters, however, simply aren't to be decided upon by ordinary citizens who simply do not have the time or the interest to indulge themselves in the subject matter and carefully assess the pros and cons for all parties involved.
>>63804064
Thanks for the like.
Did you see the picture of Baudet on the piano? Absolutely disgusting.

yeah the dutch twitter community had some nice parodies on that and other photos :)

not only does it fit the bill but it's also p dreary. here's to hoping it'll grow on me as much as holiday did.

>I definitely liked Feeling Buried better, but this was good too! If I was you, Torts I would probably try to implement a unique element to the longer tracks like the sax playing from your first album. It's a centerpiece and I feel like it could be much more powerful if 10 minutes in something like a sax solo section happened. Then again, it is just my opinion.
I feel people here, but it's definitely not something I would go back on. The long track, and actually the closing section of "I. Tennis Practice & An Aura" are intended to be slower and not engaging on an overt level. If they were it would defeat the purpose of the album.
The intent with many sections of the album was to make something that was more intimate & less obvious. For meditative listening, in a sense.
aka "new age"
Definitely hear the criticism though, but it's not something I'd change in this case.
Thanks for feedback <3

heyhey I'm currently listening to the 'wrong' version of the Mackerras conducted Glagolitic Mass (the one with the Danish Orchestra instead of the Czech one), I don't think it'll really matter for who will win, but do you have a link for the Czech one? Can't find it anywhere and I'd still like to listen to it, as I'm loving this.
>>63804512
The version I prefer is available in full on YouTube;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU2IPkoQjXI
I also have it available on Soulseek; the folder is "[1926] Glagolitic Mass" account is TheLoveofLife
Someone make a new thread please and thank you

welcome to my user list :^)
(nice tiny library)
>>63804658
I only have a 128gb ssd so I don't have a lot of space for music :/ I use iTunes Match to store it in the cloud though, so luckily my library is significantly bigger than my soulseek library (just not actually on my laptop)

Acceptable excuse.

not really, disc space is incredible cheap.

hahaha nerd
>>63804752
Disk space is definitely cheap, but I have a MacBook Air so I can't replace the SSD with a larger one and having an external HDD would still mean that I wouldn't be able to seed my stuff 99.9% of the time.

Every so often I come across one or two folders that I forgot to format correctly when adding them in but yeah it's about as sorted as a library gets.
