Life Without Buildings -Any Other City

Growth of the soil by Hamsun

Frankenstein

bumping by myself

>Track 1
Well this track is interesting. I wouldn't say I enjoy it, but I am curious. Is it as old as the style of music suggests? Is it all one guy, or are there a few musicians? If it -is- a particularly old recording, then it's interesting from a historical perspective.

I did hear recently that Les Paul was one of the first musicians to experiment with multitracking back before the days of electric recording methods, by recording himself playing along to a gramophone record of himself. I wonder if this is an example of a similar technique? Certainly some of the instruments sound very bassy, as if a lot of frequencies have been lost in the re-recording process.

Musically it was dull though, so if it was anything other than proof of concept then it was a waste of time. Still, nice job surprising me; I was expecting 10 tracks of wanky fusion.

>Track 2
Having mentioned Les Paul, I wonder if this is him? Not sure if any of the instruments are overdubbed here - maybe the guitars, but it's hard to tell. On the other hand, it's pretty clear that the vocalist has been doubled up (or more), and the effect is pretty psychedelic - I like it. Pleasant enough guitar playing too, and the overall sound makes this worthwhile, though I certainly wouldn't choose it normally if I was in a jazz mood. Definitely sounds ahead of its time though. Jazzpossu mentioned last week how some of these tracks blur the line between jazz and pop, and I'm not even sure which side of it this one comes down on.

>Track 3
I think this is a violin dubbed over itself, but the effect is almost like a multi-reed instrument. Awesome to then hear a guy shrieking down his flute - normally I'd think of the sax as being the instrument most capable of taking on the sound of the human voice, but maybe that's just due to conventions of how each instrument "should" be played? Again this piece leaves me wondering what was overdubbed and what wasn't - surely everything other than the violins were live? I would definitely check out more of this album, seems like a catchy take on free jazz ideas.

>Track 4
A Monk tune, but I can't remember the title. Trying to count and I think there are three different tracks here, panned right/centre/left (glad I switched to headphones for this playlist). This piece is glorious, and the most interesting question to me is what order the tracks were recorded in. I think it's reasonable to guess that the right one was first, but the others I can't tell. I wonder how he recorded this - did he have a chance to familiarise himself with each track before recording the next, or was it all completely spontaneous? In any case I love the effect this gets. Monk's compositions lend themselves really well to things like tape loops and rondo forms and multitracking like this - maybe because of how much they made use of minimalist techniques like repetition and minor variation in the first place?

it just occured to me that babyhuey&babysitters is kinda like nmh in how both band play the shit out of whatever they do. hm. do you see that or am i being dumb?

To get the real experience (or as close as you can get without seeing them live):

Get some GOOD speakers and subwoofer.

Unplug the headphones.

Point the speakers at you.

Max volume.

Play.

Not bad not great

an average rap album by a token average rap artist that has already been forgotten for months
you'd be pressed finding any list remembering it come december

my friends all have very different music tastes, so if I find an album I like I know I'll be able to talk about it with at least one of them.
if not, then it's all mine :3

is your music taste particularly 'out-there'?

Terrible taste.

I just went through all ten pages of /mu/ and there is not a single thread worth clicking on, I'm only replying to this one because it was the first thread on page one

It was a product of a more hopeful era

first for ouddekker

Eh, I feel a lot of his criticisms were pretty fitting. I love the album, but I feel like some tracks were too long and was obnoxiously unmelodic a lot of the time.

Do you pronounce autechre wrong to be contrarian?

Because /mu/ is good at following rule 2.
