Skilleddk posted:I've recently listened to Mojave 3, which sparked my interest in dream pop / shoegaze mixed with country. I really like their album Excuses for Travellers, similar stuff I like is Beach House, Mazzy Star and Wye Oak. Try.. My Morning Jacket (first couple albums) and Cowboy Junkies (The Trinity Sessions) you could always listen to Slowdive if you haven't already, but it's not really country-ish at all. Maybe Galaxie 500 or Low. Low's album "The Curtain Hit The Cast" is a sort of dark dream pop with some folky songs. Chikimiki posted:I recently discovered The XX and I like it a lot, but as they haven't really made a lot of songs, I was wondering if anybody knows something in the same vein... Not even necessarily musically, but with a similar atmosphere. Well, they sound like Young Marble Giants mixed with The Cure, New Order, and Interpol to me FetusOvaries fucked around with this message at 00:15 on Jan 19, 2011 |

His is a huge thread so I don't know if it's been said but goddamn the new EP just released by Foster The People is loving amazing. Surprisingly Pumped Up Kicks ISN'T the stand out track. Worth every penny, blast this poo poo on the way to work or as you get ready to go out Friday night. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I already listen to The Cure and Interpol, though I didn't know about the other two (New Order from hearsay). I'll listen to them, thanks!

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start with afropop? It's obviously a MASSIVE genre, but I know next to nothing about it, and wouldn't really know where to start.

I know very little about current afropop, but I quite like the '70s band Osibisa. Start with either their self-titled debut or (my favorite) Woyaya.

It's not a genre by any reasonable measure... As far as African popular music goes, some of the biggest names are Fela Kuti (afrobeat), Orchestra Baobab (Afro-Cuban music), Tabu Ley Rochereau (soukous (i.e. Congolese rumba)), Franco (soukous), Orchestre Polyrythmo de Cotonou (funk), Mahmoud Ahmed (soul, ethio-jazz), Mulatu Astatqe (ethio-jazz), Prince Nico Mbarga (highlife), Manu Dibango (makossa, jazz-funk), and a million others. Have fun.

Can someone please recommend me songs/bands similar to Telescreen's "Rumors"? http://www.myspace.com/telescreen I like the second half where the song really "starts". I've tried looking up shoegazing but can't find anything with quite the same energy.

Will someone please recommend me some indie folk (I guess) with heavy/prominent/awesome drums and percussion parts? I mean pretty much exactly like the Dodos' album Visiter (and more specifically "Red and Purple"), all of Local Native's album Gorilla Manor (which is probably the best example), and some of Rogue Wave's Out of the Shadow. White Rabbits would also fit here but I like them far less than the others. Just some indie-folkish things with some pounding drums. Thanks in advance.

Get the compilation "The Indestructible Beat of Soweto vol. 1." It's just a sampling of stuff from the first half of the 80's. I think it's very endearing music.

I love the poo poo out of Bowie's Berlin trilogy (especially "Heroes") and Station to Station, as well as Iggy Pop's The Idiot. Are there any other albums with that same detached, Krautrock/funk feel?

I'm looking for some more music like lushlife or just in general hip hop with more relaxed backing tracks. Maybe something like Nujabes? Additionally, in a similar vein, I'm looking for some good trip-hop tracks/artists. I've been listening to RJD2, DJ Shadow, and Kid Koala and I'm looking into something sort of like this. Thanks in advance!

Dear non-tone-deaf forum goons. Recommend me some deep, sensual sounding cello or other string instrument as primary style music. Doesn't have to be classical, modern pieces appreciated as well. Something smooth rather than choppy, and ambient but strong, not something to put you to sleep.

Hey there. I'm looking for something kind of specific, but I figure it can't hurt to try my luck here. I'm looking for songs that revolve around a rise and fall. Political, emotional, physical, literal, or figurative doesn't really matter. Nor does genre. A good example would be Handlebars by the Flobots or (albeit a little sillier) The Complete History Of The Soviet Union, Arranged To The Melody Of Tetris. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I can't stop listening to Alison Krauss and Calexico. I want more acoustic based stuff - solid songwriting and solid mastering. I LOVE the amazing soundstage on Krauss' albums. The banjos and mandolins sound unbelievable.

So I recently heard the song Nephicide from the Find a song thread, apparently quite popular on SA. I was just wondering what is some music that is similar to the dance aspects of the songs, specifically from when the drums kick in to around when the "it's just a feeling" segment starts. Especially the drums, which seem to me to be reminiscent of IDM but arguably... dancier.

Fred Lonberg-Holm can play the hell out of a cello. And about 90 other instruments.

Have you tried Crash Worship? Start with the live album Espontaneo. I would lose it for months at a time and then have to move again and find it at the bottom of a pile and put it on for three days in a row, it's pure dissociation music.

Lookin' for some real thug rap poo poo. Not like the 47 Miller Gang stuff but like relentless aggression with gun lines and thug poo poo. I cant think of any artists similar to what I'm lookin'. Hoping he sounds like he just came out of some super ghetto like Camden or like Inglewood rappin' about thug poo poo.
