Listen to your library, show off your backlog, babble about new music, tell us what you have been listening to today and what you will listen to in the following month, just let the good times flow.
Gauss is this the first time you've ever made a thread? Either way it's nice to see your name in the OP for once

how about you?
Nathaniel Anderson
I've been listening to jazz more lately - finding lots of interesting stuff. Currently enjoying this
Luis Miller
hey
Nathan Wilson
Yeah but i just can't understand what is it that i found so frightening. Like, the way they move or something or The way they look. I fucking despide it. But i can never exactly say what is it that i hate so much
Brandon Lewis
Walt Dickerson - To My Queen Really phenomenal piece so far, very sparse and emotive instrumentation. It's nice seeing the vibes take front stage, and being implemented so well. Also Andrew Hill's piano is tight as always, he always knows where to add and where to ride it out; he is fucking incredible on everything from this time period.
Justin Lewis
>where to ride it out Thats what she said.
Bentley Flores
I played Free For All (the song) for my mom and she grew increasingly flustered it was quite a (((spectacle)))
Jaxson Allen
Techno music is unique for making sense electronically of discourse in local society, right?
Brody Gonzalez
play machine gun for her and film reaction
Ryan Powell

Wyatt James
I have yet to listen to machine gun should I add it to the chart? √√√
Nathaniel Perez
Nothing, I like to read.
Isaac Rivera

this looks cool, thanks
Ryan Jones

Jordan Smith
damn decided to go ahead and listen to it, lookin good right now. Is this where Colin Stetson drew inspiration?
Isaac Wilson
yep. deco. ask rocky about it.
Samuel Harris
The jazz you rec'd me in the previous thread.
Adrian Price
i thought this free jazz would be freer, it seems to be compositionally well thought out to my pleasant surprise. the buildup around 8 minute mark was fabulous and i am certainly impressed by it
Jayden Nguyen
wew im sweatin
Christian Cooper
:8)
I like to imagine I'm in the trenches in WW1 when listening to that album
Adam Young
Fuck when it all comes together at the end of machine gun third take jesus christ

Ween “Extras”. Regular reviews coming eventually idk
Finally getting into the live stuff, which I’ve been looking forward to.
>Paintin’ the Town Brown: ’90-’98 (2CDs) Allegedly released without Ween’s okay, and Deaner has always shat on this album, but there’s a lot of great stuff about it. The few originals are better than anything on La Cucaracha. Voodoo Lady, I can’t Put My Finger On It, She Fucks Me, Awesome Sound, hell, not all of these are “better” than the originals, but they sure give them a run for their money. The few problems I see here are the 2nd disc and the overall recording quality. While the quality isn’t terrible for a live album, it’s just barely passible. I THINK there’s a few extra instrumentals in there, but I can’t quite make them out well enough. It’s often muddy and makes really dynamic moments kinda lame. Also Poopship Destroyer is 26 minutes long, and barely merits it at all. It’s pretty uneventful and doesn’t merit being over three minutes. Huge waste of disc space, honestly. Vallejo is a little better, but you know that song on The Lonesome Crowded West that is like 10 minutes too long? That’s this but for 31 minutes. There’s a lot of cool winding crescendos, but not enough to warrant half an hour. 6
Samuel Bell
>Live at Stubb’s 7/2000 Fuck. Yes. Like I said in the last review, Ween hated this album because of the gorilla quality and release without their approval. It seems that Ween was almost getting back at Electra by releasing this on their own label, “Chocodog.” Stubbs is better than PtTB in almost every way: Song choice, recording quality, and just fun in general. Stubbs has pretty much all of the best songs you can think of from pre-Quebec era Ween, and I was happy more songs from Pure Guava (my favorite Ween album) made it on here, as well as some choice selections from the Mollusk. This version of “Ocean Man” and “A Tear for Eddie” are of the best I’ve ever heard. This is a must for any Ween fan.
ALSO: This is purely speculation but Christgau shat on GodWeenSatan, saying they “went on about pussy for nine minutes (good idea) in a Princey blues-minstrel drawl (bad one)” referencing the song L.M.L.Y.P from that album. I don’t think Ween cares about some old fuddy-duddy who cares much more about lyrical content than song content, but I kind of see this as a revenge of sorts, since disc three of Stubbs is THIRTY SEVEN FUCKING MINUTES of LMLYP. Shit shows the chops of practically every member, and the length is much more warranted as an XL-size Ween track. Just amazing. 9
Also, it’s worth noting that Claude Coleman Jr., Ween’s drummer for both albums (and since 1994) is fucking fantastic, and really only shows his fantastic chops live. If you want a really diverse and dynamic Ween experience, please try one of these out.
Fuck, I really need to see Ween live.
Bentley Jones
i had no idea Ween had so many obscure tapes >Poopship Destroyer
Nolan Edwards
The first three are the tapes they made in their basement before GodWeenSatan, but a lot of tracks like "You Fucked Up" and "Bumblebee" were originally from there, but are a million times better on GWS. Not worth it even if you like their early stuff honestly.
The "Demo" section is pretty much just a few extra songs and worse mixing of already existing tracks. Glad I'm at the live part now because this shit is real nice.
I like Marc Maron's podcast. Has a lot of filmmakers, musicians and comedians on, if you're into those kinds of interviews. Radiolab and This American Life are also nice.
What exactly happens in the Skype group? I just imagine it as /daily/ Illuminati making long term decisions about the future of our memes.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes it. Hopefully he'll start making weird albums again.
Robert Ortiz
Today I spent a bunch of time listening to small bits of just about every album pitchfork reviewed within the last week. I guess to just get a feel for what the quality of an average week's release is. Since /daily/ is /dead/ right now I guess I'll share my thoughts on these half-listened to albums. So here are reviews I wrote based on skipping around and listening to bits and pieces of different tracks:
Debo Band - Ere Gobez 11 piece Boston based Ethiopian pop group lead by a saxophone wielding ethnomusicologist. On their website the two first things you see are the band, mostly white, which you might not pick up on since their genre is Ethiopian pop, and they look like what would happen if you just suddenly transported 10 random NPR listeners into a room. The second thing you see is a quote from NPR saying “…riotous energy and sinuous swing.” While the band is very very NPR they’re music is still pretty enjoyable even if not incredibly interesting. There’s some decent accordion though and it kind of reminds me of zydeco or something, so I might show it to my dad.
The Underachievers - It Happened in Flatbush I could picture enjoying this while drunk at a party, but not otherwise. Generic kinda fun party rap.
The Hotelier - Goodness My goodness what boring emo. I mean if you think emo is good you’ll probably like this, but I’m not into it.
Africans With Mainframes - K.M.T. Techno musician Jamal Moss, or Hieroglyphic Being, was the man who made my one of my least favorite albums of last year. This wasn’t particularly bad or good. Acid house done weird. The pulsing on some of these tracks kind of gave me a headache. Probably best not listen to through headphones. “Qustul Artifacts” “Meroitic Script”
Classixx - Faraway Reach House music. Aside from the first track, which is sort of nice and summery in a way, it’s pretty bad. “Grecian Summer”
Carter Allen
Robert Glasper / Miles Davis - Everything’s Beautiful Didn’t give it a full listen, but I thought it was neat. Interesting attempt to translate some of Davis’s work to hip hop and R&B. I think I might check out some of Glasper’s other stuff. I think the album is in some ways hindered by being a film soundtrack, because some parts feel flat and uninteresting. The remixes weren’t particularly good. Some tracks like Right On Brotha were really hindered by a small poor choice (like that fucking beat), I don’t need EDM Miles Davis.
Autechre - Elseq 1-5 Much more aggressive than most of the Autechre that I’ve heard, which was kind of interesting. Some of the territory felt well tread in, but that’s to be expected for Autechre. But at a run time greater than 4 hours I couldn’t take the idea of listening to the whole thing.
Rebolledo - Mondo Alterado Weird as fuck techno with some spoken word vocals. Really emotionless and detached but also kind of funny and ridiculous. Sounds kind of like the soundtrack to The Terminator or something, but with spoken word vocals about love said with a mexican accent. The cover says it all. “Fears Come True” “Dance Warrior Dance”
Olga Bell - Tempo Hmmmm. I can’t tell if this is pop music or experimental music. Holly Herndon does a better job of this type of stuff. “Ata”
Pup - The Dream is Over …I like pop punk. They use a lot of the same elements on each track though, it would help if they switched things up a bit more. Also the teenage angst/anger gets a little tiring. I bet they’d be really fun live though. “You” is “Yaheeeewww” for these guys. “DVP”
Kristin Kontrol - X-Communicate Kristin Welchez of Dum Dum girls. God I’m such a sucker for ridiculous synth pop like this. Sometimes it gets a little too radio for me though. “Show Me”
Kayden Morales
Daniel Romano - Mosey Ontarian mother folker. Just because you look like Bob Dylan doesn’t mean you have to pick up a guitar and try. This is a quirky little country record with a lo fi garage rock type aesthetic sometimes reminiscent of an old western. I don’t know if I’d call it good. “Sorrow (For Leonard and William)”
Angel Du$t - Rock the Fuck on Forever Bass-y “fuck erggg punk ghrrrr we swear and talk about fucking” type hardcore. Kind of has a pop/grunge sound. Doesn’t have the speed or intensity to really be great. The bass-y-ness makes it feel really slow. Pritty shitty. “Rectify”
Minor Victories s/t A guy from Mogwai, the girl from Slowdive, and a guy from Editors. I guess I should know who Editors are but I do not. Anyway, this album sounds like what you would expect given the people playing on it. Sort of shoegazy post-punk-y and cold-wavy. Kind of reminded me of Beach House. Pretty gud. Also Mark Kozelek Shows up on the track “For You Always” where he sings one of his distinctive rhymeless rythemless rambley stories. I might listen to this in its entirety. “Cogs”
Speaking of Kozelek…
Mark Kozelek - Mark Kozelek Sings Favorites If you like Mark Kozelek then you already know this release came out, and if you don’t like him, you aren’t going to start liking him by listening to this. It’s just him playing piano and singing some classic songs. Literally just him and a piano, and occasionally some backing vocals. Don’t bother with it. “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”
Beth Orton - Kidsticks Pretty weird. “Singer-songwriter” meets electronic music. Not much to say because it’s not very interesting. “1973”
Flume - Skin :P nahhh. About an hour of EDM-esque production held together by features. I was never that big a fan of Flume, but there was at least a time when his music didn’t sound dated. These beats sound 5 years old.
Wew maybe I shouldn't have posted all of this.
Hunter Sanders
I probably should have proofread that at least a little bit :P
Ryan Gutierrez
>Pure Guava (my favorite Ween album) you got that right. what kind of old fart hates LMLYP? that song's one of the best on GWS. and fortunately i think they're touring again with new stuff on the way. unless one of them dies. knowing this shitty year, it's a decent possibility.
Caleb Gray
>what kind of old fart hates LMLYP? Christgau. He's a great writer sometimes but man does he have the shittiest opinions.
If a new Ween album came out and it was any better than La Cucaracha I would have to quit /daily/ b/c I'd be listening to nothing but that for weeks.
Jaxson Stewart
Idk why I replied to your above post with no words, but I think I was going to say
Don't sweat it man. Do you have a chart or anything you're doing right now?
Jace Sanchez
to be fair, it'd take a lot to be worse than La Cucaracha. It wasn't awful, but it sure wasn't good either. and both of their recent solo outputs have been pretty good.
Lucas Watson
Nah, I gotta finish this damn tourney though... I asked you what goes on in the Skype group, maybe you were going to reply to that? Idk.
Dominic Morales
GodWeenSatan was trash and L.M.L.Y.P. was one of the lowest points
Thomas Long
lmao it's better than Sondre Spanish-for-Milk but I mean
I have no idea what goes on in the skype group, I'm not a part of it.
Also yeah finish that tourney it's beautiful
Luis Martinez
Oh yeah I asked GFR. But yes, I am in the process of finishing.

Benjamin Allen
Also, I'd been looking for what this instrument for MONTHS and never knew exactly what to look up because I always assumed it was a stringed instrument for some reason. It's always used in the background for a lot of less-than-traditional Japanese songs, but I could never remember the songs I'd heard from wherever to ask "what's this instrument?"
Anyways, finding it cheaper than $1,000 isn't proving to be easy, so maybe I can find a guitar pedal or something that has a similar effect? Idk.
Anyways, it's a really beautiful droning sound, and if you know of any music that has it feel free to rec youtube.com/watch?v=nzpN0AsMMvo
Ayden Allen
Does the $1,000 include the asian lady?
Why do you care what goes on here? It's one general, you're free to not participate.
>Wew maybe I shouldn't have posted all of this. Yeah how fucking dare you post music related content
Luis Wilson
i would do this if i didn't live in bumfuck nowhere. getting cancer from camden's air isn't worth the vapor aesthetic. philly might work i guess. pretty good album tho. if it was played by some european chick on an acoustic guitar, you'd give it a 9. you'd be cool to have in the skype group. we mostly just chat and pretend to work on the group projects. good question. i'd say we'd move to /trash/, but we'd be flooded by more avitar fags and furry porn. it's not even the barely fapable kind, it's all twink shit. when /daily/ eventually gets banned, i'd say a chat room that lets us post images could work okay. that's really nice actually. shame it costs so much. i'd love to make some lowercase jams on that.
Carter Diaz
Not sure what that is, but you might want to listen to more accordion stuff. It really sounds like the higher pitched notes of an accordion.
Jackson Price
I don't think so :/
I don't have a webcam or anything rn. Also how do I join?
I'd like to find a way to rent a sho just to try it out for a bit. It looks like a hell of a time for background shit.
Not really. They're similar in tone maybe but not in playstyle as far as I can tell. Accordions aren't really used in the "drone" fashion while the sho is pretty much entirely background filler + crescendos, so I know I'd love shit like that youtube.com/watch?v=NoKP-o-cXak
Ethan Watson
it just seems counterintuitive to use an anonymous website and then identifying yourselves I was saying jewbook derisiously but any chatroom would work better

aight that settles it so god help me, next thread we migrate
Jonathan Rodriguez
good call. reddit could be viable if it wouldn't be instantly flooded by normies. is there any way to make a private one of those? reddit-chans or whatever they're called? yeah i agree with the chatroom thing. we're just using this until we can't because it works. u don't need a webcam. it's mostly text and occasional calls. i messaged the mod of the thing (rockadopolis). he'll be here shortly to get you in. fuck i sound like a cult leader. no shut
Zachary Thomas
isn't it also counter-intuitive to waste your time in /daily/ when you could so easily filter it like k-pop or Grimes threads?
Ight cool. I should probably make a Skype then.
Jordan Wilson
>isn't it also counter-intuitive to waste your time in /daily/ when you could so easily filter it like k-pop or Grimes threads? I do not think before I post, I find it counter-intuitive but Skype is indeed pretty useful, I use one from another general on another board and it works fine even if the image posting can be a bit slow

okay rocky's fucking dying and told me to post this for him. imagine i'm his trip: "Hey babe, been waiting for you to ask to join

we'll see i guess

Makes sense I guess.
wew just added
Jeremiah Barnes
he also told me to include this idk "We've been going strong on skype for a year now. It's way better than Sup Forums, but no one new can discover us if we just used the Skype group." cool
turn up the bass on your speakers and blast 'Budy Bye' shit is killer
get lost in the riddims

Finishing up Canticles Of Castaway now. >GodWeenSatan was trash youfuckedup.ogg >listening to small bits of just about every album pitchfork reviewed within the last week wew Jandek's talky albums. he'll thank you for clothes, tell you he needs your life and all that jazz.
@18:10 "There was a message board off of pitchfork call PFMS - Pitchfork Media Smackdown ... there were a couple hundred of us that joined this and used to post on it, mostly to complain about record reviews but also to, you know, trade tapes and send each other little packages and stuff and have our emotional freakouts or whatever. That board became less about music and more about just kind of anarchy or whatever."
sounds familiar ;^)

Good morning, /daily/! TAFKA Movenglut here. Today is going to be more intense heat, more studying and more music. What are you going to be reading and listening to today?
Fuck, I love dub in the summertime. Been blasting King Tubby and Keith Hudson these last few days. Thanks for the share, man. I need to get on that digital dancehall vibe again. The Bobby Digital dudes again.
Oh man, now you have got me all worked up! Good thing my girlfriend is not home yet, she does not enjoy dub as much as me.
Also, inb4 FISH says I should just listen to Fishmans.

Improvised Music From Japan: Final Thoughts
Disc 7 was a fucking nightmare. There were some interesting moments at the end of the third "Improvisation" movement, otherwise total garbage.
Now Disc 8 was probably the best one I'd heard in a while. Nikata Bushi fucking shreds and the long ass track by Michihiro Sato was only 10 minutes longer than it should've been.
Disc 9 had a couple of weak tracks in a row by Masahiko Okura but then OH SHIT /DAILY/ MEME MAN HIMSELF PETER BROTZMANN STEALS THE SHOW. Seriously, Disc 9 is worth it if you really enjoy that dude, just for the last few songs. The Junji Hirose tracks on here were also pretty choice improv piano and I think those will probably be overshadowed by Brotzmann by any future /daily/ listeners.
Disc 10 wasn't that grand either. The two shorter tracks by Kyoko Kuroda & Kazuhisa Uchihashi actually had a lot of beautiful and surprise moments. Definitely some more choice cuts. The last two 20 minute tracks are definitely nothing worth it, though. Shits so boring and uneventful, which is actually a great summary for this whole ordeal.
For me it's a 6/10. There's a lot more too this than Onkyo and EAI, though that does take up the bulk of it. I think most listeners will probably be bored by it unless they have a supreme love for those genres, in which case absolutely pursue this compilation. There's also a bunch of free jazz, minimalist compositions, traditional "Japanese" instruments (I say this because they pretty much stole all of them from other Asian countries) and a whole lot of other interesting shit.
This could also be a great starting place for someone looking to get into Onkyo or EAI. It features a lot of the big names where someone could easily say "hey, who's that? I'd like to hear more of that" like I've done. Honestly this could be amazing as just three discs with all of the choice cuts taken out.
Final verdict is that this is one of the most interesting comps ever, but not worth it for me.

I wonder where that fish did go. We did love him like... a son. Oh fishy fishy fishy fish.
To answer my own question, I am going to straight with cultural theory today. And pick up the slacks from modernisation theory, discourse theory and political psychology as well.
My and girlfriend went to the park yesterday, we brought her portable Bose speaker thing and just bathed in the sun with slow dub riddims soothing our souls. It was absolute bliss.

Brayden Walker
I was never a fan of The Offspring but then again, I have only heard their hits. And I also cannot stand pop punk. But I am willing to give them a chance. I will add that particular Offsprings album to my backlog and listen to it at some unspecified point in time. Maybe I will experience another Korn moment.
Adam Foster
honestly it might even edge out Smash as their best album. They kind of pulled an Eminem where their first album is pretty dark, before getting kind of goofy but amazing, before turning to ass later in their career
Michael Miller
My real question is; if I hate "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy", how far can I realistically go? This all depends on whatever I like their debut record, that is.
Lincoln Morris
You can pretty safely go from their debut s/t to Ixnay the Hombre, when they were still close to Cali punk and didn't go full skater-pop-punk. Try Americana and turn it off when it starts to annoy you. If you can make it through, you can give Consipiracy of One and Splinter a try. Don't bother with the rest. Rise and Fall is okay, it has a couple neat track but it starts to go mellow and boring. Days Gone By is a bore from beginning to end.
Luis Phillips
>Jandek - Canticle of Castaway
He’s going to eat your soul cause he ain’t got none.
An acoustic CD with 3 tracks. 53 minutes.
Don’t Go Out starts with some very jumpy guitar strums. The usual “Jandek” special. Howling voice returns once again. Urging us not to leave. Why? Because everything outside looks too normal and that seems to be freaking out our protagonist. I like how he states that the outside world can be perceived as a “passing montage”. He doesn’t want to go anywhere. He doesn’t want to pay the bills. He wants nothing. There are some moments in Smith’s delivery that are soft enough to qualify for early Jandek (“float me out there” line is a good example) but in general it is more howling than anything. At 17:30, Smith plays the most violent solo he has ever performed. HE RIPS those strings. The track ends at a half an hour mark.
A shorter track “You Weren’t” lands as the second one. Pace of the guitar is pretty fast, packed with Jandek singing out small syllable words. The track is about imagining someone’s love/commitment/whateverrelationshipmatterheistalkingabout when it actually isn’t there. Abstract terms used all through the tracks.
The closing Boys Like Blue is 17 minutes long and continues in the same vein of the album. Apparently different people like different colors but boys prefer blue. “Somehow, they always do”. Smith just stacks up different coloured things into the track with occasionally interesting phrases (“divorce from the city”). I felt like this track has elements of biographical nature. More of an associations game really. The track felt very long though.
OK album that tends to drag at times, but that solo on Don’t Go Out was cool. Too short, but I enjoyed it nevertheless.
6+/10
Nolan King
This is where it all gets good.
