Can anyone recommend albums that sound like Aztec Camera's High Land, Hard Rain, or perhaps even world music precedents for it? I'm open to stuff like Weekend's La Variete with hints of that Spanish style guitar, but another indie band with that kind of sound/influences would be great to hear. (Please no straightforward twee--I want to hear the kind of guitar playing/complex rhythms this album features.)

Please recommend any bands that use glide guitar. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EOPIi4Q3lM, http://www.foxtailsomersault.com/media.html, or any My Bloody Valentine song. No dream pop/ambient poo poo with heavy distortion and ethereal vocals or whatever. I am talking reverse gate and tremolo arms.

I'm looking for music similar to Lou Barlow's work on the Kids soundtrack. Both ambient stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1cU2hbnP30 -- the people in the comments there suggest Boards of Canada, I guess that's a good start. [Does anyone know what produces sounds like this? Maybe a synth flute reversed or something?] And also the more rock stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GJ9IhY6BpE -- sounds kind of like some early Sonic Youth to me, but a little cleaner and with more reverb.

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. A lot of them hit the spot. That Michael Andrews soundtrack is indeed pretty captivating.

Where I can find more "dark" sounding Italo disco like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsGsXLjEG-o? I love the upbeat pop Ryan Paris/Ken Laszlo/Gary Low type stuff, but I am really fascinated by sounds more akin to this track. Johnny Jewel's projects (Chromatics [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0mxXrHowHQ], Desire [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K7rmxjk5RQ]) are a pretty good example. The snare sound with that slight delay/reverb is part of it, I guess, but also slower tempos, palm muted guitar, vintage analog synth sounds with reverb. Also to add to Beeswax's great post above, I would also rec this awesome new group, Postiljonen, if you like that sort of stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P344cfTQpU alcoholiday fucked around with this message at 02:15 on Feb 19, 2013 |

It's been a month and a few pages since I posted this, and I've had no luck/responses, so I hope it's alright to bump it: alcoholiday posted:Where I can find more "dark" sounding Italo disco like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsGsXLjEG-o?

Beeswax posted:I dunno if you mean that the answer wasn't what you were looking for, but you did get a reply Whoops, totally my mistake for not seeing that. Thanks to you and to the poster with those suggestions. Digging the stuff in those YouTubes already. Edit: I've started browsing that subforum and have already fallen in love with 2-3 tracks. Thanks infinity2005. alcoholiday fucked around with this message at 03:27 on Mar 29, 2013 |

Posted this maybe a year ago and got some helpful responses, but nothing exactly on point. Can anyone recommend any music similar to Aztec Camera's High Land, Hard Rain? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibKTlG5tbjo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFaa2L9B7n4 King Krule / Zoo Kid is kind of close, but doesn't really use full band arrangements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XJQXH_cmcY http://zookid.bandcamp.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9wLrAtcd6Y I like Prefab Sprout (sometimes similar in the use of 7th chords/arrangements/fast/syncopated rhythms), but again, somewhat different. I also like jangle pop, but I am already well acquainted with a ton of those bands, so I am looking for something a little more specifically like the above album (even Roddy Frame himself didn't really go on to make albums like that later in his career). There's gotta be some DIY band out there, even with only a Bandcamp page, that's trying to make music like this.
