anybody a little disappointed with the lenght? not only the tracks but the whole thing feels small compared to the rest
It might actually be the first and only gybe record I would consider trying thanks to the length
Those pretentious fucks need to chill out with their song's length
>>75006679
Its not even out
>>75006733
im not saying the music is bad, just short in comparison
YOU KNOW IT'S NICK CROMPTON AND MY COLLAR STAY POPPIN'
ONE MORE TIME
why is he so fat
>Fall in love with Blur (Modern Life through 13 is a great streak of albums)
>Check out Gorillaz, I find the rap a bit jarring.
>Need to revisit Think Tank, a bit biased without my Graham, haven't really gotten into Magic Whip yet.
So what are some ESSENTIAL Albarn or Blur related things to pick up or get into next?
>>75006616
I'd say stick with Gorillaz for a while since it might click. It's easily my favorite Albarn project. Plastic Beach might be more up your alley if you're not a fan of the rapping.
Aside form that, i'd say Parklife, 13 and Think Tank are the absolute essential Blur albums, and if you're really a big Damon fan, check out his solo album released a few years ago.
>>75006616
the only essential Blur related thing is Gorillaz Best Of
>>75006616
The Good, The Bad and The Queen.
It's a great album dude. I'd recommend you to listen to.
There's more projects, but I haven't listen to them. Like the album with flea, it's called Rocket juice and The Moon
What are some other albums with atmospheric spoken word parts like these?
>>75006595
the blue notebooks - max richter
>>75006595
>atmospheric spoken word parts
this album is all atmospheric spoken words, though most of it's from Shia LaBeouf

latest album from calvin harris was smooth!
i know, fuck me
>>75006586
It's nice.
Reminds me of Tycho and Com Truise with Vaporwave inspiration, not much else to say about it.
Love the album. "Resonance" is so obviously the best song on the album. I wasn't aware that it was a Vine meme or one of the most popular Simpsonwave videos on first listen.
Randy Your Sticks
this is the most underrated and overlooked album in this year
Good album but the debut was better in every way
>>75006562
The debut was more consistent but this has higher highs. I just hope that their next album is more fleshed out and utilizes Matt Tong more
>>75006740
Well, I saw them right around when Matt had joined as a live drummer (before they took him in fulltime) and Franklin played an acoustic proto version of Spiral as the encore. I think a bulk of Underside had already been written by the time Matt became a full member. But yeahhhh, they definitely need to put him to good use on the next one.
>He still thinks metal is for children

The M in Metal sounds for Modern Classical.
>>75006386
yeah your shitty phrases arent modern classical just because you pick a new bar length for every riff

What is /mu/'s opinion of Mark Hollis and the last two Talk Talk albums?
Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock are both incredible albums.
>>75006377
so is The Colour of Spring. A fine trilogy
laughing stock>the colour of spring>mark hollis=spirit of eden
all great though
Have you ever met a famous musician?
I saw MC Ride at a grocery store in Sacramento yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

He looks a bit like the retarded freak I used to live next to as a kid. This takes me back to my most disturbing childhood memory.
>be 8/9 years old
>to the right of my house lives a divorced prick whose kids visit once every few months
>his FAS daughter is sort of friendly but kind of dumb
>his 10 year old son is a mentally challenged chubby midget and super violent (although he very much wanted to be my friend. I mostly acted friendly towards him and that kept him from biting me like he did with most kids on the street)
>to my left lives another divorced guy whose kids come over more often
>he has a son of about 11, a daughter of 9, and some disfigured 7 year old boy who was only physically challenged
>go over to the house on my house's left one day
>the 7 year old and FAS girl are playing in the living room
>dad is nowhere to be seen
>ask where the others are (the 11 year old was my best friend of the bunch)
>"they're upstairs"
>go upstairs
>hear crying
>enter the kids's bedroom
>the retarded freak is somehow raping the 9 year old girl with his 10 year old penis
>the 11 year old guy is sitting in a chair and is watching his sister getting raped
>the 11 year old is giving the retard directions
>walk away without them noticing me
>stop hanging out with those kids
>never mention it to anyone until this post

I've met a lot of non famous ones
Why are there no other artists who came even close to this kind of sound?
*cough*
because it would be highly derivative
Cusco is a band that sounds similar. They are also from Germany and their album Apurimac us one of the greatest I've ever heard. It is hauntingly beautiful
https://youtu.be/KfVKcpF67Ww
is kino the greatest band of all time?
>>75006198
Maybe only in Russia.
>>75006198
Are they /tv/'s favorite band?
I have this interface:
http://www.m-audio.com/products/view/m-track-mkii
And my plan is to re amp
I also have a reamp box
I still haven't had a chance to experiment with it
Anyways, since my interface can be used as a DI box should I bother getting a DI box like the Radial Pro48 Active 48-Volt Compact Direct Box? Will it be better if I use it with the interface?
I guess my reason for asking is that it's not the most expensive interface
But it seems like as long as I make sure there isn't too much gain by controlling the input level, there should be no reason why it wouldn't work well
By the way, I'm using passive pick ups
>>75006191
if what this article says is 100 percent true
Then any of the problems of using an interface as a direct input shouldn't apply to me
For example, I can make sure the ''signal doesn't come into hot'' by controlling the gain knobs accordingly
>>75006223
This is the article I meant to link:
http://www.audioadapter.net/articles/do-i-need-a-di-box
Where do I go after TNBM?
I want the same "lofi and vocals used sparingly" sound.
you're in luck because the next three albums are literally the same thing]
>>75006189
I wan't other people to do it, but better
just dig through bands labelled raw black metal and you'll find something you like
>In the business for 35+ Years
>9 Albums that went at least Gold
>6 albums that went Platinum
>4 Grammy Awards
>Consistent Quality throughout the Decades
>Career has outlived some of the musicians he's parodied
I legitimately dare you to name an artist with a more consistent, long lasting track record.
So if you don't state the obvious does your brain seize up or something?
