I've realized that I desperately need more apocalyptic, furious drums in my life, preferably mixed with brass and strings. Can anyone recommend anything like Junkie XL's Fury Road soundtrack? I'm especially fond of Brothers in Arms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaL6NxTvWRM And Storm is Coming (that part around 3:38 is just loving divine): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liPiHSVtloQ

I've been reading Soulsville USA: The Story of Stax Records by Rob Bowman, and it's pretty great. Can anyone recommend any other books about the music industry (whether it's about a genre or a record company) that's particularly good?

Here's a thought experiment: if I asked for bands that sounded like the Smiths, but the only Smiths song you know was "How Soon Is Now?" what would you recommend?

Maybe Night Ranger, but Sister Christian is the only Night Ranger song I know so it might screw up the whole game.

Night Ranger is hair metal - I'd have thought they'd be pretty far from the Smiths. Maybe I've missed something.

What are some good post-hardcore/emo bands? So far I've really been digging Indian Summer and Funeral Diner, but I don't know much about the genre.

Post some classic surf rock that's not the Beach Boys/Jan & Dean, especially if the band had a little more of a hard edge to their sound, though I'm not sure how much of that was in the genre.

Dick Dale is definitely the guy you want to go to for classic surf rock. Maybe look into Duane Eddy, too; not exactly surf music, but certainly an influence.

I'm looking for someone to recommend me a couple rap/hip-hop albums to broaden my collection. I mostly listen to alternative and indie rock so I'm not super into that genre but I want to go deeper. Here are some stuff I already own and like: -All of Kanye -Childish Gambino post-Camp (have all of it but I don't like his earlier stuff as much) -Mos Def-Black on Both Sides -Cunninlinguists-Piece of Strange -Wale-Album About Nothing -Clear Soul Forces-Detroit Revolution Should I dig deeper into any of the latter artists? Who else sounds like these?

Here are some stuff I already own and like: Cunninlinguists and Clear Soul Forces are both good acts that sound like about 10000 different dudes from the mid 2000's. It's not a bad thing, it was just (and is to a lesser extent) a very popular style. For similar stuff I'd check for Murs & 9th Wonder's collab albums, anything by Illogic (or on Greenhouse records in general), Little Brother's earlier stuff, Insight, and Edan. For newer dudes who have a similar style but maybe not exactly, Open Mike Eagle, Homeboy Sandman, Hail Mary Mallon, Shad, Luck one/Hanif, Danny Swain, and Pell. Murs & 9th wonder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuc72JUv2PE Illogic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9W4XvrUYyQ Little Brother https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNVU40d7iWI Insight (as an aside this is maybe one of my fav songs ever) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6Mo1yzr53A Edan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltCC-rCeHMQ Open Mike Eagle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xcYhmRv7fk Homeboy Sandman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhe-eYHQgXA Hail Mary Mallon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNWdfo12Mio Shad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duadOSIBFKQ Luck One/Hanif https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JMK5ThV9X8 Danny Swain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZllS2v19L4 Pell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeUXvpQne9I That's a lot of stuff, but should be a decent start.

Here are some stuff I already own and like: Just to reiterate, the first two albums by Wu-Tang Clan are a must, and pretty much any of the first solo albums by any of the members (especially Method Man's Tical, and GZA's Liquid Swords). Masters of the Universe by Binary Star Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys Man on the Moon: The End of the Day by Kid Cudi The Mouse and the Mask by Danger Doom (collab by MF Doom and Danger Mouse) Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde by Pharcyde Ready to Die by The Notorious B.I.G. Every Outkast album. Stankonia is a good place to start, with many of their hits. All of these albums are accessible and distinctive.

Looking for a good entry point into Motown, be it a singles compilation or particular artist's album. I hear a few songs now and again and always come away blown away by the drumming.

Get the 4 CD Hitsville USA singles box and work from there. My fav are the Four Tops, but there's no wrong answers with Motown.

Sprint posted:Looking for a good entry point into Motown, be it a singles compilation or particular artist's album. I hear a few songs now and again and always come away blown away by the drumming. There's a three CD set called Tamla Motown Gold: The Sound of Young America which covers most of the main hits from "Money (That's What I Want)" through to some of the Rare Earth stuff from the 1970s. I have two Motown collections and it's definitely the better of the two. Since Motown was overwhelmingly concerned with singles rather than albums (albums didn't really become a big deal in R&B music in general until Isaac Hayes did Hot Buttered Soul in 1969 and single-handedly proved that there was an audience for them), if you're interested in particular artists, you'd be best to pick out their greatest hits collections. Most of the big names have entries in Universal's "Gold" series, which are two disc career retrospectives with around 40 songs or so. The most significant "album artists" Motown had were Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, and then only in the 1970s. If you're interested in some of the "deeper cuts" I'd recommend trying Jimmy Ruffin, the Contours, Junior Walker and the All-Stars and Chris Clark's first album (but not her second album - if I recall correctly, it was mostly psychedelic pop rubbish; harpsichords and stuff. For what it's worth, they're both compiled on Chris Clark: The Motown Collection). Also check out the Chairmen of the Board - they're not Tamla Motown themselves, but they were "masterminded" by Holland-Dozier-Holland after they left Motown.

Okay so I'm gonna post a few youtube links to songs that I would listen to before going out, the kind we'd have going on while we all drink just to get us in the mood, I'm not entirely sure what genre they would be related to, so if anyone could point me in the direction of a thread that'll have more of what I want, that'd be great! Otherwise, or in addition to, if you could post more music like this then that would be fantastic. Waves - Tomorrowland Anthem - Dmitri Vegas & Like Mike https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsnQxMG_cY8 Splinter - Savant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CzBYn7iRSI Domeno - Titan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2ZioQTekAk Wasted - Tiesto (Unmet Ozcan Remix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MKMqtdbKa4 And more well known songs like She Wolf (the David Guetta/Sia song, not Shakira) or Calvin Harris' 'Blame', just poo poo that gets you ready to hit a club, any recommendations will be greatly appreciated! And hopefully enjoyed
