I'm looking for more spacey late 60s/early 70s kind of psychedelic/krautrock. Think long, spacey, free-improv kind of jams. Stuff along the lines of Ash Ra Tempel, Gam, No-Neck Blues Band, and ZeN (the Turkish band, I think there might be more than one by that name). It doesn't have to be from this specific era but I included a date range to give more of an idea about what I'm looking for.

Popcorn posted:I demand more dreamy 80s synthpop along the lines of DOOT DOOT OMD would have been my first guess here, but I got beaten. Their first three albums are essential. Dazzle Ships is by far my favorite but everyone seems to recommend Architecture & Mortality. Uhh, the second Yazoo album would work. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRchY25SRAQ&feature=related best track) Its not full of dreamy synth pads or anything, but the whole feeling is similar to that other song. On a similar note, Never Never by the Assembly (their only single) is great, with Vince Clarke of Yazoo and Depeche Mode and Feargal Sharkey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvQVSbaDSig The Chameleons might work as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iwxkLByt68 I nearly forgot this song! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7OecGaSKlE One of the most beautiful synth pop songs

I like classical music, but I don't really know anything about it. I know the names of most of the more famous composers, but I can't really tell their work apart. I just found out one of my favorite pieces is Beethoven's Symphony #7 since I knew a movie it was in and looked up the soundtrack. Usually I appreciate songs - any style of music - more when I've heard it before in some sort of context like a movie, even if I don't remember the scene. Symphony #7 just hugs at the heart strings in ways I can't describe for me. Can anyone name any other specific classical pieces with a similar effect? The only other pieces of classical music I can name specifically are Joy of Man's Desiring by Bach (excellent, but has a different effect) and Pachebel's Cannon in D which I know is something of an overused cliche.

Popcorn posted:This sounds like a Christmas no. 1 by Alan Partridge :O I don't like Maid Of Orleans either, but you've lost me on the Alan Partridge comparison. Architecture And Morality has some good stuff on it, though. The New Stone Age (post punk); Sealand and the title track (instrumentals); and She's Leaving, Souvenir, and The Beginning And The End (synthpop).

You've probably heard Can and Tangerine Dream, but I'll mention them because you didn't, and they shouldn't go unmentioned when the discussion turns to krautrock. Also, you might want to try out some Djam Karet. Instrumental stuff, most of it composed by developing ideas from free-form improvs, as I understand it. They'll do anything from an aggressive, guitar-driven hard rock sound (Burning the Hard City) to ambient music (Suspension and Displacement) with lots of psychedelic stuff as well. Ozrick Tentacles might also be of interest, but having heard about a half-dozen of their albums, it seems to me they have two songs: The one with the rock beat and the one with the reggae beat. So there might not be any need to find more than one album unless you like it so much you want to be able to play them nonstop all day. Someone more knowledgeable than me might disagree, though. Also, I'll second the recommendation of Gong and Hawkwind.

I'm a giant nerd who loves long, wanky progressive songs. If I love Earthless and Porcupine Tree, what should I listen to? On a different note: I'm sick of the non-stop generic dubstep at parties. I'd love to know if there's something else in the modern electronic scene I can to put on instead. So far, only Glitch Mob has hit the spot. Any suggestions?

Other pieces you would definitely have heard before and with good reason include Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier (the best-known bit) and Cello Suites (Yo-Yo Ma playing the prelude to No. 1). You would definitely have heard some Mozart in your time, too. The Piano Concerto No.21 is a gorgeous piece that you've probably heard at some point, and there are many many other pieces of his you'd recognise too. Look him up on IMDB or something. I'm betting there's Wagner that you'd have heard, but I can't in all good conscience give you a link to Die Liebestod or something, because to listen to Wagner in bits is to totally miss the point. There'd be quite a lot of opera you might have heard, really. You can't possibly not have heard Nessun Dorma. But, again, this poo poo's hard to recommend. Every link I've given you are all completely obvious, and they are all also tiny bits of much bigger works, the entireties of which are well worth listening to. Please, enjoy the hell out of the most famous pieces, but don't stop there. Don't listen to the hit singles of classical music. There's SO much beautiful music out there you won't have heard in a movie that you really, really should give a try. There are countless composers worthy of your time that don't make the all-time-greatest-hits mixtape, including Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Stravinsky, Hayden, Paganini, Strauss, Schumann and several of J.S. Bach's sons, to name just a few. Have fun , but again, please don't stop at the McNuggets.
