lets all just make a pact to ignore hampy, alright?

Space - Magic Fly (1977)
>space disco, eurodisco

The title track is great, but the rest of the album is bland, uninspired eurodisco that falls more into the realm of europop and pop soul then it does actual disco. And it is really not all that spacey for a band called "Space".

Emmylou Harris - Wrecking Ball (1995)
>alt-country

The real draw here is the production by Daniel Lanois and the way it intertwines with Harris' ethereal and effectively twangy voice. The instrumental work is nice, the collaboration with Neil Young is nice, the melodies are simple but effective, but nothing about this album grabs me or sticks out in my mind. It can't seem to choose whether it wants to be a country album or a really poppy dream pop, so it kinda goes halfway between both. Its still nice, but a bit confused and really safe.

Going through this right now done with the first two tracks. The second track (If You're So Smart Why Aren't You Rich?) was cool with its chromatic stuff, but really didn't move around or go anywhere it's like a 3/5 composition.

Stay On It, the first track...holy shit this hit WAY to close to home for me. Not gonna lie part of me wanted to cry, but I haven't been able to cry at all since I was 10 so no crying. If I can give it a 10/5 I would, but yeah 5/5 composition for me personally probably irrational but w/e.

So I listened to pic related
Actually not bad, i bet he had a lot of fun making this, as there are a lot of pretty sounds; but one hour of it where it doesn't shift dynamics and stands still (while being completely everchanging) felt really heavy. The end lock groove was surprising. Overall hard to digest, but my ears weren't ringing as much as I expected. I'm very hyped to see zaitkratzer's rendition now.

ERUDITEY if you're here

What version of Ramleh - Hole in the heart should i listen to for the tourney? The cassette with 4 tracks or the extended bonus thing that lasts an hour and a half

>John Fahey - Womblike
Really out there for Fahey, this album features a pretty weird fingerpicking style (at least unusual for Fahey in its brutal simplicity) buried under loads of drones, musique concrète, and improvised-sounding electric guitar-ish stuff. While I should've enjoyed this album based on that description, it really wasn't all that great. Some of the songs are decent, but nothing really floors me. Fahey combines his characteristic playing style with electric sounds better on City of Refuge desu. The last track is the longest track is the best track for sure.
>6/10

>>62040941
Oh yeah, that entire album is gold, but the weakest track is definitely If You're So Smart. What Term said basically. Nigger trilogy is probably the best part of the album, but I really love the Holy Presence of Joan D'Arc (including the intro).

>>62041210
Sounds fun

>>62041348
The 4-track version definitely is better for a start, if you really like it you could always come back for the extended version.

Van Dyke Parks - Song Cycle (1967)
>baroque pop, art pop, psychedelic pop

Parks' talents, that we all know so well from Smile and Ys, are on full display here. The arrangements are gorgeous and fullly featured, and the melodies are oftentimes real nice. But Parks' issue is that he has no idea how to structure an album. He has so many wonderful production and melody ideas, but he just throws these ideas up into songs and albums with no regard for flow or sequencing, and Song Cycle comes out being very muddled, confused, and clunky as a result. The only songs that really flow all too well are the two "Laurel Canyon Blvd."s and "All Golden", the rest are a bunch of great ideas strung together awfully. Parks' talent is best demonstrated when other people are putting the album together for him, or simply calming down and limiting his creativity.

First three pieces on Time Out were great, the rest was a bit more standard. Blue Rondo and Take Five were the best, Brubeck seems like a cool pianist.


The best and most recommended record from this chart was Collected Songs by Crescent, although not by much. Thanks to post feelist for being the source! Will post the next chart soon.

Not let down by: Oxbow, NWW, Sweetwater, .

Disappointing: Andrea Parker, Edgar Broughton Band, Chico Magnetic Band, Timber Timbre, Gorge Trio.

Went through the Joan D'Arc stuff. The Prelude is imo weaker than even If You're Rich, repeating the same two or three motifs for almost 12 minutes with very little added. 1.5/5

The actual Holy Presence Of Joan D'Arc though is pretty amazing, honestly so far the best in terms of sheer songwriting/composition. just due to how much goes on in the piece. It gets exciting straight from the first minute with a large variety of string melodies coming in and out. Also probably the most metal track on this cuz that was pretty fucking metal. 4.5/5

Chet Faker - Built on Glass

Not really much to talk about, Chet's r&b vocal style can sometimes lend itself quite nicely to the electronic music but oftentimes it's so bland it's forgettable. Not without its moments (there are genuinely some really nice tracks) but for the most part was boring and repetitive. I like his EP much better, not because the quality of the music was better, but because it was just short enough where I didn't find myself looking back and forth at the time remaining, waiting for it to be over. 4/10

>Rome - Die Æsthetik der Herrschaftsfreiheit
I never got the hype for Flowers from Exile. I think it's a terribly average album. Die Æsthetik is on a whole another level for me. I don't really care for the spoken words tracks but fortunately they're backed by pleasant ambient music. The rest is very good, often briliant, neofolk, way more varied and richer than Flowers. Everyone knows that but Jérôme is a fantastic singer. The instrumentation may seem simple but most of the songs are gorgeous. It doesn't really have any low points during it's 2h30 but the highs like Sons of Aeeth, Petrograd Waltz or The Merchant Fleet are pretty much perfect. There's still something keeping me from fully appreciating it but I'll definitly return to it.

What's your opinion on Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, /blog/? Personally I feel like it's a massive waste of time, and just a way for people to avoid feeling inadequate because they're not intelligent. This way, they can always think that "they're intelligent in one way, at least", even though that way is super far from the traditional definition of intelligence (eg "naturalistic intelligence").

In some way, I feel like this is also the reason "emotional intelligence" exists - when people lack real intelligence, they need to cling onto something else, and by calling it another type of intelligence they can feel better with themselves.

This annoys me every time I read "emotional intelligence" or something similar in my literature.

if you don't like the term then why are you writing it in your literature

>>62045255
"the literature I am assigned for class" is 2long2write

>>62045188
so your issue is with terminology, with people wanting to feel better about themselves, or both?

>>62045291
Both. The terminology exists solely so people who are not actually intelligent can still ascribe to themselves the label of "intelligent".

>>62045188
I feel like you're probably getting a little too hung up on the label. Without a doubt, some people are better at some things than others. Whether or not they call these abilities "intelligences" doesn't really matter to me. The same discussions about how to define "liberal" always gave me the same headaches. So maybe better terminology should be used? It's really just a way to communicate ideas.

>when people lack real intelligence, they need to cling onto something else, and by calling it another type of intelligence they can feel better with themselves
And here I always thought "emotional intelligence" meant "able to read people".

>>62045503
Yes and no, it's about being able to recognize your own and others emotions. Emotional intelligence really isn't the one I'm having most issues with, compare to spiritual, naturalistic or bodily-kinesthetic intelligence.

The last one in particular, because it tries to shift intelligence from a cognitive concept, to something all encompassing that simply means "ability".

>Jim O'Rourke - Bad Timing
Pretty good american primitive guitar with various interesting sounds going on simultaneously. I find the solo playing can occasionally get a bit stale, and tends to rely on the other noises to carry it. Also, the songs tend to be a bit in the way of traditional song writing, but it's hard to pin down how exactly. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing, but I do tend to enjoy the more free-form meditative raga-like side of american primitive, as opposed to the structured.

The trumpets that loudly break out on Happy Trails kind of ruined that song for me. My favorite song is definitely "94 the Long Way".

Baby Huey - The Baby Huey Story: The Living Legend (1971)
>chicago soul, funk

"The Living Legend" is the subtitle of this album, despite the fact that Baby Huey had been dead for a year. Funk with a side of irony, I can dig it. But what I can really dig here is Baby Huey's vocals. The sheer amount of soul this man exerts is palpable, everytime he screams its like I'm getting shaken out of my seat. The backing band is quite good as well, a lot of drum breaks here have incredibly good sampling potential, and the horns are incredibly overblown, but in a good way. The downsides are that a lot of the tracks have a tendency to drag. The cover of Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come" is great, but 9 minutes of Huey doing spoken word is pretty unnecessary, while the other cover track on here, "California Dreamin'", is completely dispensable, mostly because it strips away the best feature of both Baby Huey and The Mamas and the Papas—the vocals. Good, but pretty spotty and the songs drag.

Spazz was an offbeat VU esque protopunk song, I like the solo/bridge, but the rest didn't terribly impress me. Paper Mache was a garage rock pop number, also nothing much

Stan Getz & Eddie Sauter - Focus (1962)
>cool jazz, avant-garde jazz

What an odd combo of genres. Those are like the two jazz genres that never get mixed together. Frankly, I don't hear the avant-garde jazz here at all, its just polite cool jazz with some pretty neat string arangements. I don't care for how non-rhythmic this album is, a lot of jazz I like is completely built on its rhythm, and this is just kinda floaty. Pretty, but forgettable and lacking in soul.

Modest Mouse- Broke
I really like Modest Mouse, so it's no surprise I like this single. The guitars on Broke somewhat remind me of Doin The Coackroach, a plus. The B-Side has something weird going on in the intro, it sort of works sort of doesn't, slowly turns it into a normal song. I'm semi conflicted, because these songs sound so similar but I fairly like them both
3.5/5

Hoodoo Gurus- What's My Scene
This was going great until the drums started. I can't get over how awfully 80s the drums sound.

1.5/5

Nylarathotep advances


Sylvester- You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)
Nice grooves, but irritating by the 6 minute mark. B Side is another alright disco jam

>Bert Jansch - Bert Jansch
Not really at all American Primitive. The artist isn't even American either, he's Scottish. I'm beginning to doubt the accuracy of clutnuckle's definitive of American Primitive.

Regardless, this is very soft and cozy, but sometimes potent folk with some fairly edgy lyrics for a popular album in 1965. I enjoyed all the songs on here, and a few really stood out (Strolling Down the Highway, Ramblings Gonna Be the Death of Me, Needle of Death), but nothing floored me. Would rec for a good cozy, folky time.

>Loren Mazzacane Connors - Airs
This wasn't that impressive. Incredibly soothing and enjoyable though. It was just an album of almost all C major improvisations with reverbed guitar and nothing else. Favorite track was Untitled :) 6/10 overall.

>Third Ear Band - s/t(Elements)
This one was much more interesting than the last one, although for me, the bulk of the great moments are in the middle and none at the ends. Don't get me wrong, Wind and Water were good, but they don't hold a candle to Earth and Water, although I will say Wind definitely lives up to its name. I digged the fast drumming on earth for sure and the string parts were pretty good overall. Favorite song was Earth, 7-7.5/10 overall.

Think next month I'm gonna make my rating system more qualitative than quantitative. I think it's better for these kind of things.

>>62048836
O jeez normally I don't do this but I think you should 100% check Focus out again. It isn't really avant-garde jazz at all I don't know where people get that.

It's an album of string compositions written for Getz to solo over, and then Getz solo'd over them. That's all it started as, so I guess it ending up sounding similar to cool jazz and stuff is a thing.

Anyways glad you enjoyed most of the stuff I like so far can't wait for you pan the next one <3

Zappa cont.

Making of Freak Out was pretty much just the first two discs of Project/Object, both fine behind the scenes shit, but 5 and a half hours is too fucking long to warrant a re-listen.

Carnegie Hall was probably one of Zappa's best early shows I've heard, but it has bootleg quality, and a few tracks like Peaches En Regalia are butchered to shit and slow. Would recommend if you can stand the sound quality.

Road Tapes #1 was a great live concert that only partially justified its length. Road Tapes #2 almost completely justified its length. Both fantastic performances, but #2 is slightly better.

Only 9 albums left, guys.

this really didn't impress me all that much, the band comes across as a poor-mans Slowdive. And I say that because there's never any breathing room on this thing, it's like if they ever just let the sound quote unquote talk for itself it'd be a pretty good album, My Bloody Valentine did it quite well, and Star I think started to clue in to this on the last track, but by then it's already too late

>Glenn Jones - This Is the Wind That Blows It Out (Solos for 6 & 12 String Guitar)
While there are some obvious Fahey inspirations on this thing--ignoring the artist's name (holy nominative determinism) and the track titled "Fahey's Car"--Jones does a decent job of making his own stylistic mark in the American Primitive canon. His music has a tendency to float, delicately resting on higher notes, only to satisfyingly strike, attacking the deeper notes. Occasionally he breaks into a complex, rich style reminiscent of Fare Forward Voyagers.

His music carries a sense of gloom and foreboding, not unlike Fare Forward Voyagers, but this album often gives me GY!BE vibes (even ending on a hopeful note in GY!BE fashion). Really, a great album with definitive atmosphere progression, intriguing moods, fantastic playing, and memorable songs. The longest two tracks are obviously the best tracks, but I really like every song on here. The 12 string songs (of which I think there are only two on here) are particularly captivating.

Probably the best thing I've listened to on a chart full of good albums.
>9/10

>Jim O'Rourke - Bad Timing
O'Rourke might not have the virtuosity of Fahey (clearly the main inspiration for this album), but he does a pretty good job compensating for that with more extensive instrumentation and more climactic songwriting. The result is a very comfy album, it never blows you away but almost always is effective in setting a mood. The only part I didn't feel much for was the part right before the ending of "Happy Trails", the sudden outburst of trumpets gave it a mood swing that wasn't exactly necessary. Otherwise, very solid album. 3.5

>Simon Wickham-Smith & Richard Youngs - Ceaucescu
Shoegazey songs with a heavy emphasis on lo-fi noise fuckery. The good most definitely outweighs the bad here, but it's still somewhat hit-and-miss: the vocals are often rather shoddy and when they are too much in the forefront they can kill otherwise great tracks such as "I Live in a Big City", a couple of songs (Most notably "Two By Two") try going for a more synth punky approach (which doesn't work) instead of the walls of sound that make this album good, and the last track, while pleasant, can't justify its 14-minute running time. On the other hand, there's stuff like "Overview and Sales Planning", which is a great instrumental with a sharp electronic noise penetrating the thick layer of guitar noise, and "God", which really does feel religious with its slow, majestic guitar pattern and the ominous chanting in the background. This is a good album overall, as long as you can ignore its obvious flaws you will find something to enjoy. 3.0

>>62059762


>Princess Nicotine
Burma is a country you tend to kinda forget about, so colour me surprised that it turns out the country has a fantastic music scene. The album can roughly be divided between two types of music: there's very theatrical songs, which heavily use traditional folk influences and feature a lot of spoken segments, as well as very energetic and danceable percussion, and more recognizable songs that seem more fit for pop radio, even though they, too, use instrumentation you wouldn't find in Western pop music. Standouts in the first category are "Burmese Golden Drum", which probably has the best percussion of all and features some sort of question-and-answer game going on between male and female vocalist, and "Tune of the Second Entertainment", which is no less than 8 minutes and features a lot of spoken passages. In the second category, we have "Jasmine Bush of Gold", which is a calm track with a sort of reverbed vocal that gives the song a dreamy feel. "Good Time" is similarly dreamy. Meanwhile, "My Darling's Love Arrow", which is probably the most hi-fi thing on here and applies the danceability and energetic percussion of the theatrical pieces to a more poppy song. It features some really interesting twists and turns in the melody. It's kinda hard to describe exactly what is going on due to all these foreign instruments being utilized, but for what it's worth I can say that you basically should check it out. 3.5+

>Captain Beefheart - Mirror Man
Groovy ass bluesy psych jams from the cap'n. The best Beefheart material I've heard thus far in my book. The very bluesy, 19-minute "Tarotplane" (featuring a baller mouth harp) is an undeniable high point in Beefheart's career, while the stomping psych groove of "Kandy Korn" simply cannot be denied. This is just a lot of fun, idk what else to say. Everyone who likes psychedelic jam sessions should give it a try. 4.0

I can't decide if I should buy a cast iron pan, a backpack, or a set of knives. Or save the money. I bet there's something else I need but can't think of right now.

Kitchen knives. I have a functioning backpack but it's ugly. Also I have functioning knives, but I want santokou, deba and sashimi knives. I don't have a cast iron pan, my mum wanted to keep the ones I prepared before I moved out. I only have a large teflon one, so I can't fry stuff at high enough temperatures for my liking.

>more functional
It's for going 1km to school and back, I will literally only use it to carry a laptop, course literature, a thermal container and a lunch box. Occasionally I will put clothes in it if I'm visiting my parents.

It's super functional for what I would use it, and I think it looks good.

However, do you have any alternative suggestions?

Patagonia is always a good choice, check out their designs, I can vouch for the quality. And it should be available in Sweden.
I have a Timbuk2 and love it, I also held an Everlane backpack and it felt great. But that'd involve shipping from the US and stuff, so probably not worth it.

If you just worry about style though and you're not planning on taking it for trips and stuff I guess Fjallraven is an alright choice

>>62059971
That's what sashimi knives look like, and yes those are the knives. Set of four for EUR175. Handmade, Japanese. Don't really care for the mukimono, but it's cheaper to buy the entire set than the other three individually.

Googled that backpack, it looks horrible and super cheap.

The pan is of excellent quality, but then again I already have a pan. I only want cast iron to get higher temps, but I don't cook meat that often anymore, so it's not absolutely necessary.

Yes, but I cook a lot, so knives aren't that weird. Then again, I already have a good chef's knife that I use for pretty much everything, and a smaller one for paring stuff. The best knife investment right now would probably be a Victorinox bread knife (GOAT).

Depends on your ISP and your country's laws. I'm in the US on Optimum at home, but I have no idea what ISP my university provides. I haven't gotten a warning on either for torrenting or soulseek, even though Optimum's parent company, Cablevision, participates in the CAS (Copyright Alert System) designed to clamp down on torrenting and filesharing.

If your provider is AT&T, Verizon, Cablevision, TWC, or Comcast, they all have implemented "six strike programs," so if you've already gotten a warning you have some time to test out slsk.

Google the CAS for more info.

You know it. I hate saving money, and it always ends up biting me in the ass later.

I feel like I can spend a bit on something "luxurious". If I don't spend it now, I'll just end up spending it all on booze later this month.

That's not semantic nitpicking, it's legitimate music discussion (something /daily/ doesn't usually see). Migration considerations are a huge part of ethnomusicology, both as a tool to see where music stems from, but also as an issue of consideration where from certain music is. Has the French-Canadian tradition been going on long enough, separated from Celtic music, to be its own entity? Is there enough difference between the two traditions?

Oh wait you don't want real music discussion, you just want an endless circle of jerking, backpatting and self-congratulating, don't you? :^)

Are you saying I should change the insult, even though it would then no longer be true? Also no, I'm not just insulting you, I'm just making a bit of fun every time someone suggests that there is ever real music discussion in /daily/.

>>62060522
well Thomas saying that kitchenware isn't on topic isn't the same as suggesting that there is ever real music discussion in this thread.
People don't seem to care either way if there's music discussion or not so why would you care? nobody ever really refutes the insult, I'm fine with it

>>62060505
It's okay then, I didn't thought about it being on youtube, but the rec is ok so long as I can listen to it somehow. Besides, it looks nice.
>>62060476
If you'd like, I don't know your experience with those kinds of pets and I myself have none, though a friend I had had a snake and apparently reptiles are more of a pain in the ass as other more common pets because they require specific conditions, and with snakes you have to feed them live animals I think.

>>62060543
I didn't throw the insult in right after he suggested we should discuss something other than kitchenware, either.

>People don't seem to care either way if there's music discussion or not so why would you care? nobody ever really refutes the insult, I'm fine with it

Now Flying Ice Wizard and Kanzler can finish it.

the last two releases were quite disappointing compared to the rest of this, both only having one standout track on each. the title track on all the things was pretty good, but the rest just flew by without making much impression (except leaving me creeped out at the jesus interview track). Ship Scope had a really solid last track but all the others didn't impress me and I didn't like the first one

>Sufjan Stevens – The Avalanche

It’s kinda funny that an album of “Outtakes and Extras from the Illinois album” is longer than “Illinois” itself, even if it is only by a couple of minutes.
But the fact is that this feels like a compilation of extras and not like a full, completed album, and this is its biggest problem.
Even if it may not seem like it, every Sufjan’s release has a definite objective, a beginning and an finish point. When they end they don’t make you want more (I mean they do, but not in a bad way), and you are left with the feeling that you have just finished a story.
Here it doesn’t, it just feels like a lot of different tracks combined together.
Fortunately these different tracks are really good, even if a little bit canonic for Sufjan’s standard. He really does like to write layers upon layers of instruments with complex harmonies over what only seem to be simple melodies but are in fact passionate odes to emotions. OK, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit, but seriously, even his more “average” stuff is amazing to my ears.
Not only that, but here there some moments of pure musical joy, like the dissonant solo in “Springfield, or Bobby Got a Shadfly Caught in His Hair”, the synth of “Dear Mr. Supercomputer” or the synths in general that always appear when you don’t expect them, or all the three different versions of “Chicago”, that are absolutely stunningly beautiful, the adult contemporary version above all. They also prove how creative can Sufjan be with only a little musical idea; I mean I don’t really know a lot of musicians that manage to transform a simple motif into a orchestrated indie pop masterpiece, a folk ballad, an emotional soft rock jam and even a glitchy noisy gorgeous mess!

Is it an essential album? Is it one of Sufjan’s best works? No and no, but it is full of pretty little things that you are gonna love if you like the man. I do.

8/10

>Flying Saucer Attack - Further
Feels like they took the quieter parts of their s/t, in particular "The Season Is Ours", and built an album around it. Therefore, barely any shoegaze on here, it's more Dreamy psychedelia with a capital D. It's really pretty material, yet I feel like they pull spacy, noisy shoegaze off way better than this/ It's no wonder then that the noisiest tracks on here ("For Silence" and "Here Am I") are my favourites. The rest lacks the punch to immediately captivate me as much as FSA's s/t could, but I do see potential for those tracks to grow on me some more. For now, it's an album with a lot of pretty stuff and some really solid noisy tracks, so it's not a disappointment. 3.0+

>Лeoнид Фёдopoв - Чeтыpecпoлoвинoйтoнны
Apparently I listened to the 2008 edition, which I believe is slightly longer. Shouldn't make too much of a difference. Basically, Leonid Fedorov is great at sounding genuine, his vocals sound passionate, his guitar work is raw around the edges but sincere as fuck. The album oozes a certain atmosphere that's hard to describe, but all things considered, it's pretty impressive how entertaining one man can be with his guitar. It's close to Purple Day in quality, hampered only by the lack of the musique concrète elements that made that album so unique, and, well, whatever the fuck that thing is at the end. The title track, for whatever reason, is a 17-minute (originally 10-minute) track that consists of nothing but a loop of what sounds like a broken guitar string and Fedorov making some awkward mouth sound over it. Is this really the way you're gonna end such a good folk album, Leonid? Really? It's a major bummer it has to end this way, since it would easily be a 3.5 if it weren't for the fact a considerable portion of the album is dead space. 3.0
