what are y'all listening to?

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.

Anyone got any recommendations? For anything whatsoever...tho I am mostly listening to old stuff...

heroin jazz...not sure what heroine jazz would be.

Charlemagne Palestine - Schlingen-Blangen

This morning, I'm really loving Mike Corbett & jay Hirsh and Sam Signaoff.

listening to the Lamb album again; this really is my favorite album of the year

this song warps time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPI2Qym07iQ

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)

Chico Buarque - Chico
Sussan Deyhim - City of Leaves

EOY catch up. Spotify is being relatively unintrusive, too. Oops, spoke too soon.

That Babymetal track and vid are so frickin' ridiculous. Well done.

Joao Gilberto - Chega de Saudade
Orange Juice - Coals to Newcastle (loving most of this, esp the early stuff and Peel Sessions. they kinda owe a nod to Talking Heads as much as Al Green, imo)
Kenny Dorham/Jackie McLean - re-ish of their two records together
also quite loving Poly Styrene's from this year. thx whoever mentioned that recently on their year end list!!

Paul Simon at Webster Hall, June 6, 2011

three late year discoveries that have really enriched my life over the last few weeks:

julia kent (green and grey - thanks lamp)
julianna barwick (magic place)
julia holter (tragedy)

legend has it that if you play all three records at the same time in japan, everyone spontaneously shits their pants

A.C. Newman - The Slow Wonder
Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 - Lovelyville
Tuba Skinny - Six Feet Down
Heroes and Horses: Corridos from the Arizona-Sonora Borderlands (Smithsonian Folkways)

Tell me more about the Heroes and Horses -- is it in Spanish or English?

It's in Spanish - which I don't speak. I love the singing, harmonies and simple accompaniment though.

That sounds super good, I'm glad it's in Spanish!!
Will investigate.

had a royal trux morning -- singles live & unreleased, new howling hex and black bananas. feeling dirty, but in a good way.

Bon Iver. :(

come on, snap out of it!

i am listening to richard myhill and i feel like i am in a perfume commercial or a lifetime movie

here is "gimme the money" (aka "the heaviest of metal")

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnAvDh_FCqI

his music has also been used in cheetos commercials

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-6uX--o3xQ

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

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.

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.

I am very preemptively sorry to have cursed anyone who clicks on that video and listens to even 4 seconds of the song.

Television is gross.

that theme song is revolting

No hipster house thread on sandbox, so I'll post here...today I've mostly been listening to the new Sapphire Slows on NNF

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md7_PVqJ61k

It's nice and murky!

I am listening to a lot of old Judas Priest at the moment

listening to the rest of the Obake album. I like it.

And I know that's only because I've been compulsively reloading sandbox but work has been slow, ok?
