Graham Posted July 28, 2018 Posted July 28, 2018 Propagandhi, they're more or less all I've listened to this week after one of ther tracks came up on a Spotify playlist. They're a name I knew, but I'd never listened to them before, but the bass playing and tone is awesome, so I've been listening to a lot of their records and really enjoying them - politically charged, metallic-punk with fantastic performances. Though lyrically they're quite political, it's not as in your face as someone like Antiflag for example, the lyrics read at times like a polemical essay and at others like an achingly honest diary entry. 1 Quote

Id like to delve into the genre a bit more, can you recommend me some stuff? Are Carbon Based Lifeforms worth a listen? I noticed their albums seem quite expensive Expand If you're into more ambient stuff, either beatless or light beats, then CBL are great. These are seen as classics of the genre Woob - 1194, 4494 Global Communication - 76:14 Future Sound of London - Lifeforms, Environments The Orb - Adventures beyond the Ultraworld, UFOrb Biosphere - Patashnik, Substrata, Cirque Autechre -Amber, Incanabula 1 Quote

The Field - Swedish fella making minimalist ambient trancey vibes. Check out Looping State of Mind or From Here We Go Sublime Lindstrom - The 3 track Where You Go I Go Too is a bit of a gem Ulrich Schnauss - can't go far wrong with any of his albums but many followers would probably suggest Far Away Trains Passing By Blue States - if you like stuff with a bit of a film score feel then try Nothing Changes Under the Sun, which is quite John Barry ish Quote

BrunoBass Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 I’ve been listening to a lot of Crowded House this week in the car. I’ve been a fan since the eighties (before that, if you include Split Enz); they’re one of those bands I always go back to, Neil Finn is one of my favourite songwriters. I like Nick Seymour’s bass playing too, very understated, plays for the song first and foremost. He also does this thing where he sometimes holds the root note even after the chord has changed, or shifts to the root note of the coming chord in anticipation of it’s arrival. I like it, it adds a tension or an urgency which is very pleasing. 4 Quote
tinyd Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 The 'lost' Coltrane album, Both Directions At Once, is pretty nice. I treated myself to a vinyl copy as it's not often that you get to buy a new Coltrane album... It's a big step up from the usual 'undiscovered' recordings that surface from time to time, and it has much more of the feel of a proper studio release. The recording quality is good and the quartet are in their prime so the playing is great, I'm really enjoying Jimmy Garrison's bass playing in particular. The two new untitled tunes are very good and there are a few versions of Impressions which is interesting because I haven't heard any studio versions before. 1 Quote
