The Consultant posted:Go look up Can. Can are totally loving brilliant. I'd say start with Tago Mago—everything before Flowmotion is great, though. I'd also highly recommend Amon Duul II (start with Yeti, Wolf City, or Vive La Trance), Tangerine Dream (start with Ricochet or Stratosfear), and Klaus Schulze (start with Timewind). If you're into the more conventional hard rock side of krautrock, I'd also recommend Eloy (start with Floating), Frumpy, and Lucifer's Friend. Ambient stuff, look into Cluster (and Kluster), Harmonia, and Tangerine Dream's Zeit or Atem. And don't make the mistake of ignoring Kraftwerk's pre-Autobahn work. It has little in common with their later robot pop, but I think it's really loving interesting, especially Florian Schneider's rhythmic flute playing.

yeah Can are the quintessential krautrock band. Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi and Future Days are all completely amazing. I'd also second Amon Duul II, and listen to Faust as well. Faust IV is the first album I got by them and it's wicked

You also might want to check out Michael Rother's solo stuff, too. He was in Kraftwerk (briefly), Neu!, and Harmonia. Flammende Herzen is a good place to start, and it and the next Feedbacker fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Sep 10, 2010 |

Surfer Rosa Parks posted:Can anyone recommend me some good Krautrock stuff? I've been digging Neu! and Kraftwerk recently but aside from those two I'm pretty much at a loss with where to go next. After Can go for Stereolab and ignore all the stupid noodly kraut poo poo that would be your logical next step.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96ilxhITRMs Illusion - Man I've just discovered this, and despite my typical preference for metal and indie rock, this stuff is amazing. Does anyone have any suggestions for other heavier psychedelic but old-school rock like this? I have King Crimson, which is really good but definitely lighter and more airy. "Man" is straight rockin'. The Thirteenth Floor Elevators are a bit closer, but still not as hard as Illusion. Any and all help is appreciated!

It doesn't really matter if you've played Silent Hill or not, Akira Yamaoka is a genius. I loved that game and the music, I'll have to try to find the soundtrack. I actually have an Akira Yamaoka album but it's not at all like his soundtrack material, and I don't really like it very much. Definitely gonna check out his soundtracks though.

There's only one recording of it, some of the different versions of the Basement Tapes have cleaned it up a bit but that's the best you're gonna get. Dylan really may have only sung it once ever. Cart posted:What's the best record to start with for Django Reinhardt? This is a tricky question because it's not going to be a normal "album" but one of the thousands of compilations out there. There are tons of Djangology/ie comps put out by different labels. I'd recommend checking out an acoustic compilation like this: http://www.amazon.com/Djangology-Django-Reinhardt/dp/B000069CPD/ref=pd_sim_m_4 And a later electric guitar comp like this to see which style you like better: http://www.amazon.com/Peche-Mouche-Django-Reinhardt/dp/B000008C37 ShutteredIn fucked around with this message at 22:29 on Sep 12, 2010 |

I like a little of pretty much every genre, but I'm not looking for solo vibraphone stuff (unless it's mindblowingly awesome or something!), thanks. Some early live Psychic TV has Peter Christopherson playing it. Apparently he plays it on 20 Jazz Funk Greats but I haven't noticed it yet. The Psychic TV that features him on the vibes probably isn't really what you're looking for but hey why not try to turn some one onto PTV Here's him playing it in Coil https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWQivbIDSGQ

You're forgetting the first two Dwarves albums... Alright this is pretty much directed at HAI, I'm looking for something like what you posted here http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2945218&pagenumber=55#post380855359, for some reason British accents in rap always annoyed the hell out of me, but I was digging this. Should I just listen to Rinse until I find something I like or is there something specific I should check out? I thought all British pop was like Jedward or something...

gay til death posted:You're forgetting the first two Dwarves albums... Ehh, vocals-wise that tune is just some kinda annoying grime-lite. Check out Lady Sovereign if you dig it. Ms Dynamite made two LPs last decade but I think they're neo-soul, haven't heard. This is a tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV9xbGkE9eg Here's a similar tune by Redlight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8-lFqNxO88 More broadly, if you don't dig grime you shouldn't have anything to do with UK rapping, since 95% of UK hip hop is unmitigated poo poo. If you don't know much about grime, check out Wiley and Dizzee Rascal and decide for yourself.

I'm actually posting for a specific request this time! I recently discovered the song Bird's Eye which is a collaboration by Serj Tankian and Mike Patton, and something about this song really catches me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG92w4_aAZM Does anyone know of any songs similar to this one? I don't really care about the vocals (if there are any) being similar to theirs in this song, but I like how the background combines strings with drums and has a vaguely Arabic?/Armenian?/Something sound to it. Any ideas?

Fecha posted:Django owns but most albums of him are large compilations. As such, it's kind of hard to go wrong, but also a lot to wade through. "Nuages" is a great album from 1997 with 4 disks, but it doesn't have some of his other best-known classics like Minor Swing or Djangology. It sounds cheesy but "The Definitive Django Reinhardt Collection" has all of his best known stuff right in the first tracks. For sure - I grew up in the same French village where he spent his final years and knew a lot of his direct descendants, so had been exposed to his music and his legacy a lot throughout the years, the jazz manouche influence is still strong there. I'd just never explored the recorded side of things. Thanks for the Djangology suggestion, seems to fit the bill perfectly. Stormy the Rabbit posted:I'm looking for some hip-hop in a similar vain to Aesop Rock, Saul Williams and Sage Francis. Any recommendations would be muchly appreciated, thanks! You should really check out El-P's "I'll Sleep When You're Dead", fantastic album that you'll more than likely enjoy. You'd probably also enjoy "Hell's Winter" by Cage and Deltron 3030's self-titled (or anything else featuring Del for that matter).

Uh, there are a couple people with this name but she has only got this one album right now anyway. Emilie Simon - March of the Empress. Not her other albums which are more straightforward pop stuff (albeit with quirky sound design). Silje Nes - Ames Room is a possibility, reminds me of Tujiko Noriko's earlier solo stuff sometimes, but more song-y/not as out there. She has got a new album out that's more straightforward. Maybe Lullatone, I don't much care for them myself... Mum and Bjork are probably obvious.
