Non Metal Now Listening

[astfgyl]

Well a lot of the times the albums don't have to be recommended non metal but you might be listening to them and might have something to say about that.

So at the minute I'm listening to a Moby album called (honestly can't remember I'll have to look at the laptop) Last Night because I found it in a folder on the laptop and it's like that Play shit that I don't like but with a way better beat. I nearly like it but I will likely never listen to it again.

That actually happens me with a lot of the metal as well but this is this thread so yeah

Would usually just post everything into the other thread but don't often say too much on it but yeah there's use in this.

Was listening to DJ Aligator - Lollipop (Darude vs JS16 mix) the other night, a yoke off the back end of a single version of the song I used to actually own, and I can't quite get my feeling on it down properly.  I hate it, but I love it.  While enjoying listening to it, every few seconds there is a flip to pure rage at the state of it, but it is so of an era of chart dance that I adored before (and still like rakes of) that it gets let off the hook.  It is brutal, indescribably brutal.  Scraping the end of the Top 30 Hits style chart trance of 1999 that they had to rustle up their own visualisers for.  CD singles cases broken up on the floor of a Fiesta with this CD and three loose skins in it.

Anyway I put it on during a jam and the rest of the band gave out to me so I am probably very alone in my hate-enjoyment of this.

Been checking out some Emiliana Torrini recently. She's the Icelandic-Italian singer who, if I've understood right, replaced Björk to perform Gollum's Song on the LotR soundtrack. Her album Tookah is pretty damn good. Comparisons to Björk fairly inevitable, but it's still good stuff in its own right.

Cajmere - Techno > Funk

This is the fuckin good stuff. Was in the Voodoo Lounge years ago for this lad and hadn't a clue what to expect but this is fairly representative of it

Parliament - Mothership Connection

Make my funk the P-Funk, I wants to get funked up
I want the bommmmmmmb I want the P-funk! I want my funk uncut
Make my funk the P-Funk, I wants to get funked up

Quality album

Watching The Cure In Orange at the moment, it's obviously spectacular:

Been bingeing The Smiths of late. Their entire catalogue. Quite enjoying the Louder Than Bombs collection where they started to branch out with their sound a bit. The song London is a beast, I'd have loved to hear an entire album of that intensity from them, that outro is massive.

Also loving The Chats, who are a bit of a cross between oi punk and AC/DC. High Risk Behaviour is the album I'm loving.

Also just got into Nick Drake. Early days, but that guy is talented. Great playing and lyrics. Folk isn't usually my thing, but this is landing.

Bought a best of by The Smiths a couple of years ago. It's not bad but I think I've enough in that to be going on with.

[Carnage]

There are very few bands I despise more than The Smiths. Morrissey, really. There isn't enough hate in the world for that flute.

Slim Young - Mafisem

The best of isn't too bad man

[Carnage]

I will take your word for it.

[astfgyl]

I will take your word for it.

Ah look I can't see it either, their extreme popularity baffles me. The best of is still not the worst collection

[open face surgery]

The Smiths are an amazing band. Don't give a shit about Morrissey or anything he says or does.

New Ty Segall this morning. Had been enjoying the preview tunes for the last few months and the album is sounding good.
