Death Ambient's Synaesthesia was interesting. Maybe not in the same way as Drunken Forest, which I think I like more, but I'll give it a second listen before making any big judgements or give it a rating
Cunt start listening to shit on this chart again, I'd like to have it finished someday

>Part Chimp - I Am Come
This album was pretty good. I wasn't really feeling it at the start, and the first half wasn't super gripping, but it really picks up after track 7, Dr. Horse Part Two, and the final 3 track stretch was amazing.

DJ Yo-Yo Dieting - Dormant Mirrors / Drum (2006) >chopped and screwed, plunderphonics
No way in hell does this need to be 90 minutes long, and this is about the most scattershot and unfocused album I've ever heard in my entire life, but the pure scope of this album is impressive, and it creates a lot of flat-out incredible atmospheres. DJ Yo-Yo Dieting builds on DJ Screw's sound by making it more dark, more atmospheric, more claustrophobic, and more beat-driven. Yo-Yo Dieting also differs from Screw in his approach to chopped and screwed, he takes multiple songs (oftentimes recognizable) and mixes them together into something new and completely different. This style does occasionally fail, with the music sometimes becoming unfocused, and even downright unpleasant, but when the sound is perfected (most often on "Dormant Mirrors", "Drum" is a lot spottier), it's amazing stuff.
3.0
Signor Benedick the Moor - El Negro (2013) >abstract hip hop, experimental hip hop
The more inventive brother of Death Grips and clipping. A lot seems to be made about the progressiveness of this album and how forward-thinking it is. While it's certainly inventive and interesting in how it mixes a bunch of weird genres with hip hop, there are certainly some very major flaws. The guitars that are so prominent on this album are so overdone in a lot of hip hop music, the other instrumentation plays off the guitars well but they just seem so unnecessary and corny. Benedick is also not the best rapper, at times he has a lot of Danny Brown-esque energy and passion, but at other times he just seems like he's trying too hard to replicate this energy, and he comes off as grating. Luckily, the beats hold this whole album together. Very atmospheric, but also really hard-hitting and badass at times. A clusterfuck with some bad elements, but a good listen.

John Coltrane - The Last Trane (August 16, 1957 - March 26, 1958)
It’s outtakes scattered across 1957 and 1958, and it sounds like it. It lacks the passion and ingenuity that characterizes his later albums, and comes across simply as bop noodling.
Featuring two standards and two Coltrane compositions, his abilities as a competent composer are beginning to take shape. The highlight track is “By The Numbers” (3), where Garland’s piano playing elevates the piece to a noteworthy bop track.
The drumming across most of this album is unimaginative and simply there to keep time, rather than add to the music, which is disappointing. The bands performance here in general is less than memorable, and worth a listen only to huge fans of early Coltrane.
5.0 /10

David Borden - The Continuing Story of Counterpoint, Parts 1-4+8 (Complete) (1990) >minimalism
Parts 1-3 are really interesting and have a wonderful sound. They all seem to be performed by Borden himself on a synthesizer, and are very hypnotic and interesting yet they also have a really cool sound that predates a lot of post-internet stuff with their synth tone and their repetition of certain motifs and phrases. For that reason I think that Rod should check this album out, the first three tracks seem right up your alley. Parts 4 and 8 bring in Mother Mallard, an ensemble Borden was in during the '70s, and these tracks pale in comparison to the wonderful first 3 parts. The tracks featuring just Borden are unique and interesting to listen to, while the tracks with more dense, varied instrumentation just seem like a pale imitation of Philip Glass and other famous minimalism composers, both in sound and in composition style. Some cool ideas and textures, but it comes off as very, /very/ derivative and as being heavily front loaded.
2.5-

John Coltrane - Blue Train (September 15, 1957)
Oh heck yes. This is Coltrane’s first great statement in music; and what better place than on Blue Note records? This is a top-notch lineup, with all of the musicians seeming very comfortable and confident in the atmosphere. Philly Joe Jones on drums and Lee Morgan on trumpet specifically are hugely complimentary to him, and a definite stylistic upgrade from previous endeavours.
The compositions here, with the exception of “I’m Old Fashioned” are credited to Coltrane, and are all exceptional tracks. Still strongly rooted in blues, the hard bop style employed here would be steadily moved away from in coming albums, as he searches for his true artistic voice. Some dumb cunt is a nerd, benji is a loser and nat sucks his thumb. Does anyone read my reviews though. Bonus points for not quoting this and eluding to it instead. Although a great album at face value, it lacks that wild creativity and deep emotional resonance that comes with a truly unique piece of work.
Coltrane has proven himself as a titan of the bop genre, but is still searching for himself in the music. Stellar playing from all musicians throughout.
Not a Coltrane album to skip out on. 7.5 /10
Austin Adams
fuck, now I want to listen to this. Thanks piggers. I should return to Trane more often.

Thank you all for the support. I was able to get back to my home last evening and sleep at last. Seems like the earthquake is slowly dying out while moving towards northwest.

>Jachna / Mazurkiewicz / Buhl - Dźwięki ukryte Nice atmosphere. The music is sophisticated and yet it's not overly complex and unapproachable. Brilliantly added electronics, especially when it's used to create drone (last track is not even jazz at all), plus they're not too intrusive. A fine and accessible example of improvised jazz. 8+/10
>Fire! - She Sleeps, She Sleeps First track sets the tone : The wild screams of Gustafsson's instrument and a very focused, repetitive rhythm section. Second track follows the same recipe, a steady bass line, the saxophone wailing but this time Oren Ambarchi has joined the party, creating a gloomy background with his guitar. This is followed by a short interlude before letting place to the longest and slowest track. Beginning with Berthling sparsely hitting notes on his bass, the other intruments slowly creeps in and the tension progressively rises to form a very dark atmosphere. The intrusion of violins at 10 minutes into the song will be the only thing to break the monotony. This song could have been a little bit less longer. Honestly a great album in my book. 8/10
>Inter Arma - Paradise Gallows Starts off with some acoustic guitar and one of the cheesiest riffs ever made. Following this are 3 effective sludge metal songs, very heavy and hypnotic but not particularly new. Then are two short tracks and probably the best moment of the album. The Summer Drones sounds like a short Swans song (but of course not as good). On Potomac they basically manage to take the over cheesy riff of the first track and transform it into the most epic and fun song. It's a miracle. The album then ends with successively : a track which blends the sludge metal of the beginning with the heavy-metal epicness of Potomac, a very brutal track, influenced by discordant black metal and an acoustic finale. It's cool. 7/10
That's scary. When was the last time something like this happened ?

Shelley Hirsch - O Little Town of East New York (1995) >radio play, electroacoustic
I've never heard a spoken word album with as much musical variety as this one, and I really like it for that reason. It switches up between electroacoustic, traditional jewish music, jazz, more typical rocky stuff, and it pulls off most of them with relative ease. It sometimes falls into typical Tzadik wackiness and these parts are kinda irritating, but musically it's mostly on point. Vocally, it's pretty great as well. Some of the /very/ over the top New York accents are grating as hell, but each character voice is very distinctive and the parts where Hirsch decides to actually sing are lovely, she's got an incredible voice. That being said, for a radio play it's got a pretty lousy story. It's more of a collection of little tiny stories and character descriptions rather then a single cohesive story, and while each little story is nice to listen to and they all have some pretty humorous lines, more of a cohesive story would be nice.

Hunter Sanders
some thought about: >Miles Davis Quartet >Miles Davis Quartet [Blue Haze] >1954, Cool Jazz
Follows the style of most of the pre-Birth of the Cool productions. Pieces are generally uptempo and light, and everything runs smoothly. Because of this, unfortunately, there seems not to be much variety throughout the record and nothing really comes out: solos are decent, interplay is decent, songwriting is decent. There's even a track with Mingus on piano (!) and that's probably the most interesting one since the spacious, eerie intro you won't likely find it anywhere in Davis' early catalogue. Also, the first version of Miles Ahead is present. In conclusion, it is nice background jazz or something which only Miles' fans should approach.
6-/10
Grayson Martinez
It was Hedningarna - Hippjokk (Good friend Rodriguez) vs Frank Zappa & The Mothers Of Invention - Absolutely Free (I'M FISH). Don't have much to say, since I listened to them several days ago, but did appreciate Hedningarna's sense of rhythm (not a bad use of folk instruments too) and Zappa's voice. Rod and I'M FISH need to rec tiebreaker EPs.
Need recs from: 1) Dam's Jans (2010 album) 2) TBHfam (tiebreaker EP, in case won't give a rec by the end of the round, Transgod advances automatically).
Current bets: 1) Terminus (Terminus, herb kid) 2) Dam's Jans (Transgod) 3) Tuco (Tuco) 4) herb kid (Rodriguez)

yeah, sorey about the insect warfare score, I just really really didn't enjoy it. I'm not very experienced with metal so I acknowledge that my score probably doesn't reflect what someone who was more experienced with metal would feel, but I just didn't like the textures, especially the percussion. The album kinda just gave me a headache.
Alan Lee felt pretty nostalgic, in late high school I used to go over to this girl's house a couple times a week and we'd watch movies and be romantic. By the time I left it would be like 11:00pm or so. I'd always put on the public radio station and they have this all-night jazz program they run: the jazz that they played was mostly kinda esoteric stuff that I haven't heard since, and Alan Lee brought back that feeling of driving home alone at night with the windows open, listening to jazz, being in a high school version of love.

>how exactly do you mark these? I paint over them with a brush that has little opacity if that's what you're asking. >why not just add a little rating besides the title or somthn?

A bunch of modern fiction. V (Pynchon), At Swim-two-birds (O'Brien), Herzog (Bellow), Dubliners (Joyce, I know it's short stories), The Blind Owl (Hedayat), Molloy, Malone Dies, The Unnamable (Beckett), A Night of Serious Drinking (Daumal), and Warlock (Hall). Also A Savage War of Peace, that one's non-fiction. I finished Anti-Oedipus properly not too long ago and I already have A Thousand Plateaus in the wings. Currently reading Schreber's memoirs and Freud's introductory lectures to psychoanalysis, both of which tie into Capitalism and Schizophrenia. It's not that I couldn't finish Breadwinner, more so that I saw absolutely no reason to. If I wanted to hear random nondescript noises in loose arrangements I'd open my window and listen to the construction across the street.
Robert Miller
I dig your picks. I started V this week and it's pretty entertaining, a slow read tho. Dubliners is pretty great too. Molloy is my favorite novel of all tiem t b h, Unnamable is great too, Malone not so but still a good read.
The others are on my read-list but been progressing so slowly through it lately... not in the mood of anything, i just do almost nothing; i don't get pleasure of things anymore.
Based on what i've read from your picks I highly recommend In the Heart of the Heart of the Country by William Gass (it's short fiction but it's great).
>A Thousand Plateaus That was a tough read for me lmao. Freud's pretty much a fraud, I much prefer Jung (even tho he sometimes gets too mystical) >If I wanted to hear random nondescript noises in loose arrangements I'd open my window and listen to the construction across the street. That's the beauty of field recording - EAI for me, it's like a reconstruction of the sounds of the world but arranged in different ways that those irl. I see what you mean though.

Jack Ward
>>A Thousand Plateaus >That was a tough read for me lmao. Freud's pretty much a fraud I'm guessing you either mistook A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis for A Thousand Plateaus or D&G for Freud, but either way you're you're pretty much right. I'm progressing really slowly with Introduction. Still, it's good for context, seeing what exactly is Capitalism and Schizophrenia attempting to go up against (forget the fact that it's more a response to Lacan than to Freud, I'm getting there eventually). Schreber's memoirs I can't recommend enough though, both as a companion to Anti-Oedipus and as an excellent read in its own right.
Levi Flores
>you either mistook no, no, those were meant to answer respectively to Deleuze and Freud mentions, it's just that i forgot to make a clear distinction by just adding a . between them, my fault.
>context Yeah, I started reading Freud for the same reason but I stopped pretty early on actually. Lacan seems pretty useless to read extensively too, I still have to get with him though. >Schreber's memoirs Will read them, thanks! hi me what other books you luv, bro?
Andrew Thomas
You read A Thousand Plateaus before Anti-Oedipus? I'm sure D&G wouldn't object but it seems counter productive. Though both are fairly self-contained, terminology from A-O carries over into ATP and from what I've seen it isn't explained again there. Also Gass seems interesting, thanks.
