Recently I've been listening to Idiot Pilot first album - Strange We Should Meet Here. While I don't listen to screamo, I found this album to be nicely balanced between electronica, pop and the aforementioned yelling. Are there any other bands that do similar stuff? Looking at last.fm gives me as top similar (from what I recognize) Team Sleep, Everything is Made in China, which sound nothing alike, and Daniel Anderson's Glowbug which is Idiot Pilot's Wolves gone surf rock/glam/weird. Help!

^^^^ 2step largely doesn't use that style of breakbeat, with the exception of some later 'dark garage' stuff like Darqwan.penneydude posted:Speaking of Venetian Snares, I keep seeing that whacky style of drumming pop up in different places, and I like it, but I've never really figured out what it's called.

Cometa Rossa posted:I've really been enjoying Lone, Underground Resistance and I just discovered Around The World by Daft Punk and love it. Research tells me that I'm looking for either '90s house, deep house or Detroit techno. I really love that nostalgic, almost ambient quality of the first two, even in songs that are more upbeat and dance-able. Anything in that tradition (or not) is awesome. You definitely want Detroit techno and artists heavily influenced by it. The UR album "Galaxy 2 Galaxy - A High-Tech Jazz Compilation" has that track on it and a lot of others in a similar style. The UR label and sublabels released a lot of similar stuff during the 90s, try The Martian especially, his compilation album "LBH - 6251876" has most of his notable pre-1999 tracks. Along with UR the most important Detroit techno labels were Transmat, Metroplex and KMS, just YouTube up anything they put out in the late 80s/90s, e.g. this, this, this etc. Also check out 808 State from the UK, whom I'm sure inspired a ton of similar acts but I'm not really too well-versed in that stuff.

Tokyo Slutty Gal posted:Also check out 808 State from the UK, whom I'm sure inspired a ton of similar acts but I'm not really too well-versed in that stuff. 808 State being one of the few acts you can probably legimately call a dance-band since they did the whole live touring thing. Well probably with liberal use of backing tapes but whatever. Anyway, when I think of 808 State I always think of Ultramarine for some reason. A bit more ambient, a bit more dubbed out but whatever. An album group, though stay away from United Kingdom as it's not their strongest. Every Man And Woman Is A Star and Bel Air are the ones you want. Talking about Lone, you could check R&S Records recent-ish In Order To Dance comp IOTDXI. You've got Lone in there obviously and the other artists that make up the 21st Century version of R&S Records, all generally with the same kinda vibe, but all pretty different in how they get there. R&S did a ton of other In Order To Dance comps way back when they were one of the biggest dance labels of the 90s. The older ones from the early 90s will be littered with that Belgium Hardcore Techno/Rave sound, which nowadays can seem a bit cheesy at times, but they're still good tunes. However they did also put out or licensed a lot of Detroit and other American stuff from the likes of Model 500 (aka Detroit supremo Juan Atkins. They've recently re-issued some albums of his actually) and Joey Beltram among others, so can be worthwhile checking out if you've got some time on your hands and don't mind the odd surprise or two. Should be easy to find too, at least over here in Europe.

If I want a Frank Zappa overview compilation, can I do better than Strictly Commercial? I'm stuck between getting his 15 or so highest rated albums (the rateyourmusic crowd looooves him, so it's very hard to pick 2-3 from there), or a single disc compilation in Strictly Commercial. I'd very much like a 2 or 3 disc compilation rather than just a single.

He's written like a billion trillion songs that are the best songs written in the 20th century, and many of which sound like "falling out of love with you." Examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9lP7JG5cYg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwS77fWZ8_0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIKO4YIzp-o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OA3ozYhgFs Additionally, the singer collaborating with Stephin on the "falling out of love with you" song that you linked is Dean Wareham of the bands Galaxie 500 (in the eighties) and Luna (nineties and 00's), who basically wrote the book on melancholy, dreamy, fuzzy, laconic rock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBn340J_uJk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZKBO2RPjW0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_OXonD74q4 Between those two guys, you should have your fill of this stuff!

I am a Stephin Merritt fan, but his catalog of work is so overwhelming that I haven't heard a lot of this stuff even though it's on my iPod. I'm checking out the Dean Wareham stuff too. I love the vocals on that 6ths song, so I bet I'm going to like it too.

If so, then there's a million great bands that are political... Econochrist, BORN AGAIN$T, Nation of Ulysses, FUGAZI, plus all the bands influenced by each of them. For more traditional punk, there's of course always the Dead Kennedys. Or if you want to go back to where it politics in punk really got its start, then there's the MC5. Or for oldschool (70s/80s) crust, Crass or Subhumans.

So I've really been getting into Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Wikipedia lists them as "Garage band revival/neo-psychedelic/grunge/rock/post-punk" genre. Can anyone recommend any other bands I might enjoy if i like the spaced-out, down and grungy sounds of BRMC? I also really like The Libertines/Babyshambles. I just really love that drugged out "I am overdosing on heroin in a 2-star motel room with a dead hooker at the foot of my bed" sounds these guys punch out. Halp?

If you haven't listened to the first two Velvet Underground albums, start there. Then look into Spacemen 3, Jesus and Mary Chain, Spiritualized, The Stooges, The Warlocks, Loop, Black Angels, Wooden Shijps, Brian Jonestown Massacre, MC5 and 13th Floor Elevators. edit- Then listen to whatever insane list obscure compilations someone else posts. funkybottoms fucked around with this message at 11:18 on Jul 12, 2012 |

I'm looking for more music videos in a similar vein to this Spinto Band one. Animated is a plus I guess, but really I'm just looking for more music videos with catchy music that are similarly charming and happy. Something where the band doesn't care at all as coming off as cool, and even better if the band doesn't show up in it at all. This is a weird thing to ask for, I guess? I dunno. Anyway, if nothing else, maybe this will at least be a way of spreading a neato video to other people.

Try: Alternative TV, Minutemen, The UV Race, The Ex, Finally Punk, The Shadow Ring, Der Teenage Panzerkorps (in German), Secret Prostitutes (not in English), Los LLamarada (Spanish). These bands tend to have their lyrics spoken more often than sung. Not really punk examples: June of 44, Shipping News, Enablers, Oxbow, The Skull Defekts, Moonshake.

OOga Boogas are my favorites. Helta Skelta - great mid-tempo hc punk. their lp was limited to, i don't know, 250 copies? http://soundcloud.com/carpetrash/helta-skelta-helta-skelta And maybe Native Cats, but they're from Tasmania and I'm not sure if they venture of their island that often.
