I've recently become obsessed with the Mick Fleetwood's drumming on Fleetwood Mac's "What Makes You Think You're The One" from Tusk. That drug-fueled controlled-chaos style. Any other songs or bands that have that style? Man Man hits it with their song "Engrish Bwud" as well.

^^ sorry can't help you. I've been heavily into Sigur Ros, Grouper, mum, etc for the past year. Ambient/postrock/feelings/sleepy music. Could anybody recommend where to go from here? I feel like I'm stuck on an island of sleepy folk and want to find more of it.

Melodic, mostly acoustic folk-rock or something to that effect, in Finnish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yV-MzQa52aE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMRh04dl16Y

Lampsacus posted:^^ sorry can't help you. "etc for the past year" covers a lot of ground, so here are a bunch of names that will hit on-or-around the mark: Stars of the Lid, Yndi Halda, Labradford, Windy & Carl, Tel Aviv, Duster, This Will Destroy You, Au Revoir Borealis, Scenic, El Ten Eleven, Shalabi Effect, Red Stars Theory, Yume Bitsu, Low (early stuff), Spacemen 3, Auburn Lull, Hammock, Brian Eno, Darla Record's Bliss Out series. obviously a few of those are on Kranky, the same label as Grouper, so you might already know them, and if not, they have a lot of stuff like that. also gonna assume you know Mogwai, who have a lot of music that would fit the bill, but are equally likely to play ten minutes of feedback and Sabbath riffs

Pretty much anything mastered or remastered by Steven Wilson. If any of his many projects (Porcupine Tree, Storm Corrosion, as himself, etc.) ain't your jazz, you've got remastered King Crimson, Yes, Jethro Tull and more. Tell me if you're interested in recommendations from specifically his discog.

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Portugal. The Man and The Growlers. I realize those bands don't really sound anything alike, but I was curious if anybody had any recommendations in the same vein as either group.

I been reading this thread on and off (enjoying the music along the way). I have three requests. The first is rap songs that tell a story. The song Scarface I Seen a Man Die is exactly what I'm looking for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb48pc9NsqU The second request is what's a band like Crystal Castles? Like does weird electronic music in a variety of genres maybe? Or what can I search for to find bands similar to it? I found Crim3s which is pretty close wondering if they're anymore. Lastly, just got into Louis Armstrong's Saint James Infirmary Blues as was wondering if there anything else like it. Like that trumpet is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXMx8OW32Bs I realize this is kind of all over the place genre wise, but figured I'll give it a go anyway. Thanks.

The song Scarface I Seen a Man Die is exactly what I'm looking for. As far as rap storytellers, hard to go wrong with Ghostface or Slick Rick (or Scarface, for that matter). Shakey Dog is prob my favorite storytelling rap ever. You could basically transcribe it and have the start of a screenplay. Just an amazing song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZEFEHf0pMA Another Ghost track, it's...something different. About a dude who had the script for "Ray" stolen from him (for real). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQMwPd7H3-g Slick Rick has a bunch of classic stuff. By far his most famous track (for good reason) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjNTu8jdukA Lupe's really solid with storytelling as well when he wants to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjCiKk-wHys And Outkast as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0tamp9XdqU All of those artists should have what you're looking for (also check out Nas, especially his older stuff). Kendrick's a newer dude who also can tell very vivid stories. That's a decent amount for a start, you want more feel free to ask here or in the rap thread. Sure lots of dudes will add their favorites.

So, I enjoy reggae and dub. But I'm not a huge fan of Bob Marley. Here's a list of what I do like, perhaps you could point me in the next direction: Chaka Demus and Pliers Jimmy Cliff Toots and the Maytals Prince Buster The Selecter (UK) Desmond Dekker Alton Ellis Junior Kelly Collie Buddz Barrington Levy Lee "Scratch" Perry Kardinal Offishal (I know he's mostly a rapper, but he has a strong reggae and dancehall vibe to his stuff) Junior Murvin Any thoughts? Compilations are appreciated in particular, if you know of some that would click with these artists.

You might enjoy Steel Pulse or Aswad. I like Prince Buster and I like the Skatalites, though they're more ska than reggae.

I wouldn't say there's anything definite to pick. Maybe Soul Jazz's Studio One Classics. Also The Wailers made some great, great, great records and "Bob Marley is whatever" is just a weird phase that people go through.

Does anyone have any recs for music related podcasts? I've recently gotten more interested in podcasts while I'm at work instead of the usual tunes. I listen to pretty much any kind of electric guitar based music (particularly under the metal and punk umbrellas) as well as hip-hop. I was digging Pitchfork's Insight Out with Run the Jewels last night.

Henchman of Santa posted:Does anyone have any recs for music related podcasts? I've recently gotten more interested in podcasts while I'm at work instead of the usual tunes. Song Exploder is a good one. The host talks to a wide range of musicians about how they made a particular song. It can get very technical (at least, it seems technical to a layman like me) but they will also discuss how lyrics came up, what they mean, that sort of thing. NPR's All Songs Considered is good if you want a weekly show to hear new tracks. Musically, it's what you'd expect from NPR. KCRW's Top Tune is also a good. Every morning there's just a new track. Pretty eclectic.

Most Satchmo tunes are good, check out Cabaret and Dream a Little Dream, etc. if you haven't already. For great trumpet, maybe give Al Hirt a try. His cover of Cotton Candy is amazingly 'precise' if that's the proper word for it. Also, Haydn trumpet concertos are pretty hot if you dig the classics.
