Office of Futre Plans' self-titled debut, J Robbins new band on Dischord. I'm liking it a lot on first listen, feels like a decent summation of everything he's done to this point - some more abrasive punk-inspired stuff, some great softer pop moments. The use of a cellist on many of the tracks is actually a nice touch and works really well, eased the fears from when I initially read about that.

I'm loving the distant mechanical grind and thump of the Perc album right now. Really suits my oppressed winter mood. Not even joking - it's like the techno equivalent of Scott Walker's The Drift or something.

Heh, I was JUST reading about that Perc album on Popmatters' best electronic albums of the year, sounds intriguing actually.

"Slowly going mad in a steelworks and loving every moment" is how I tried to describe it the other day. Something very hard and yet hot - like molten lava I guess. "Wicker and Steel" is actually a very good description of the textures going on in it.

The two mixtapes here, by this Finnish jazz dude, one sort of rockabilly and pop and the other really heroine jazz sort of stuff, the latter in particular is really good.

Also in a concession to new music I like the Peaking Lights album.

impulse bought this LP yesterday and it came with a poster and a dvd of "water wrackets" which is a bit much really, but it's so pretty and i totally dig the bongos (i don't even know if they're really bongos but it def gives this song a popol vuh vibe, 100% pure catnip)

Tell me more about the Heroes and Horses -- is it in Spanish or English?
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 20:12 (twelve years ago) link
It's in Spanish - which I don't speak. I love the singing, harmonies and simple accompaniment though.
― o. nate, Monday, 12 December 2011 20:13 (twelve years ago) link
That sounds super good, I'm glad it's in Spanish!! Will investigate.

I just thought I'd find out what this Bon Iver guy was about and why he was so bad and hated or so great and loved. I have moved on now.

what did you find
― league of women voters, Tuesday, 13 December 2011 16:28 (twelve years ago) link
I don't have much to say about it except I don't like it, but I do wonder if there is something I'm missing. And again, I'm struck by the sense that this music is sort of aimed at my demographic, but it sure doesn't hit home with me.
― Occidental Rudipherous, Tuesday, 13 December 2011 16:32 (twelve years ago) link
I mean, speaking of stock sounds and library music, I maintain that Bon Iver sounds like the theme to the Hogan Family, just a pastiche of signifiers that I am not interested in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UumiZKltAPQ
