I am absolutely in love with Portrait in Jazz by Bill Evans Trio. The Blue in Green takes are just some of the best music I've ever heard, and I want to hear more like that, cool jazz but quiet and somber.

I haven't read this forum in a couple of years, but I remember toward the end of the year there being a "best of the year" thread. Does that still happen? I've found some really great music in those. Just went back a couple of pages just to make sure and didn't see anything.

I've been listening to "St. James Infirmary" by Armstrong a lot and been listening to a lot of New Orleans Jazz playlists. I'd like to take a deeper dive into it, can anyone reccomend some specific artists/albums in this style they like?

Read on if you're interested in loud brass. I remember the jazz thread in NMD had some extremely knowledgeable posters (Scarf maybe?). I love the second line style. My favorites are the Dirty Dozen Brass Band and Rebirth Brass Band. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASGn9H5fdPM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhwoGVbY9xU Rebirth especially still does a bunch of real grass rootsy street parades. Their snare drummer, DerrickTabb, is fuckin phenomenal. He does a lot for music education in the poorer parts of NOLA. This is one of my favorite Rebirth videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ALGh7dW6KU On the groovier side, I also love Galactic. Any era is good but I'm partial to 90s and early 2000s. A couple of the guys own Tipitina's now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7dFA3hoAwQ Their newer stuff is more hip hop/rock/soul oriented. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Smb8ahl3A10 They've also been collaborating with New Orleans Bounce artists lately, which is hilarious fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_-oAWEE8mY I'm not going to comment on older more classic New Orleans Jazz, but here are some must-listen artists. Preservation Hall Jazz Band - This was my first jazz album when I was like 12. Professor Longhair Dr. John HenryJLittlefinger fucked around with this message at 19:04 on Dec 8, 2020 |

Who should I check out if I love upbeat, energetic Japanese fusion like Casiopea and T-Square? A few Pat Metheny albums fit the bill, but a lot of his stuff is too meandering for my taste.

Not gonna paste the whole video but that little circle jerk begins around 13:10 in this show if anyone else has ever wondered where the gently caress it comes from. Somehow I've never heard of Shakatak, and it sounds like walking around in a mall in the 1980s to me. Also some George Benson was pretty upbeat, but he tended smoother with less distortion and synth than what little I know of T-Square and Casiopea.

Edit: Back in May I asked about stuff like Katsumi Horii Project and this is one of the responses I got. screaden posted:Casiopea and T-Square are the most obvious answers for Japanese jazz fusion. Any album will do as they do one thing and have been doing it for decades, start from the beginning and then stop around the late 80s. I can do a more in depth answer when I'm not phone posting but in the meantime you can jump on this discord, it originated from "city pop" but covers a pretty much anything Japanese, including fusion from this era.

This is going to sound pretentious as gently caress. So, the first ~3 minutes of Beethoven's 7th Symphony, 2nd movement -- it makes me feel emotions I don't even have words for, makes me think that maybe he was capable of feeling things beyond my capacity to understand. What are some other pieces like that, where you feel overwhelmed with an emotion that has no name? E: another good example is Kyrie Eleison from Mozart's Great Mass vvv interesting, thanks regulargonzalez fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Dec 14, 2020 |

I get the same reaction from the entire first movement of Beethoven's 6th, but I get the feeling that you can't successfully ask for recommendations of music that makes you feel like this, because Flipper's first album makes me feel the same way.

I love the 7th too, and I guess other works that have a similar vibe to me would be Verdi's Requiem and some of Sibelius' shorter works like En Saga, Finlandia and Tapiola

Beethoven 7 2nd movement is possibly some of the best music written in all of humanity’s history but Wagner’s Act III prelude for Lohengrin is pretty good and over the top, maybe you’ll like that? Otherwise yeah, Verdi’s requiem mass, Mozart’s, and Mozart No 41. E: something like Verdi’s requiem mass is genuinely something best experienced in person; there’s a solo trumpet that gets placed in the audience, usually in the balcony, that is... yeah, sublime, and quite a surprise if you’re not expecting it JAY ZERO SUM GAME fucked around with this message at 02:58 on Dec 16, 2020 |

Sorry, forgot to check back. Adding all your recommendations and I'll report back. Can I also get suggesting for things like Welcome to Victorville from the Mank soundtrack, things with that sexy mysterious 40s Bernard Herrmann movie score vibe? E: actually that track reminds me most of the Taxi Driver theme but that's 70s Herrmann, not 40s

Anyone have a recommendation for new/contemporary labels or artists making music along the lines of 90's-era Daft Punk or Fatboy Slim? Looking for something retro or that has a little more personality than your typical house music.

Prob not what you're looking for, and it's not necessarily representative of her sound, but Doja Cat - Say So has a beat that is like a Random Access Memories B-side. Drop the rapping section and it's a kissing cousin to Instant Crush

Hey I’m in love with song below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMeYqeleL5M I’m just hooked on the weird glittery bombastic guitar and synth combo, and I need to keep chasing that dragon. I don’t care if it’s current or old, age is irrelevant, but gently caress, even something in the right direction will do. (I am also looking for music that sounds like Ariel Pink and John Maus. I’m a very devastated big (former?) fan)

"bombastic guitar and synth combo" is so extremely Wolf Parade that I am obliged to mention them even though there's a good chance you've heard them already. But the various side projects fit too (Handsome Furs, Sunset Rubdown, etc.) so if they've somehow passed you by, I'd give them a try as well.

I love Meat Loaf, and Bat Out of Hell specifically—big, brash, passionate, emotional power ballads that feel badass. Another song that nails the same feeling for me is Nowhere Fast from the Streets of Fire soundtrack. What are some other artists that nail that feel? Ideally with some storytelling chops, too.
