Music is beautiful, and her voice as well. But I always have a hard time to listen to music in a language I don't understand. What doesn't help is that they are mowing my lawn at the moment.

i need to fuckin chilllllllllll...

so:

i'm really desperate and insecure please say something about the stuff i listened to lol

fuck minor threat

the rest is great!

actually... dio sabbath does not stand up to the ozzy era, for my taste

most of the music i listen to is in a language i dont understand

so i listen to music as music, not words

there was a study about this

The thing is, I don't really listen to the words as if I want to understand what the song is about. But I do prefer it to be in a language that I understand. Sigur Ros is a good example, found it really annoying to listen to until I saw them live.
Perhaps that's why I like post-rock, there are no words.

That's debatable.

I recently went on a John Coltrane splurge buying and listening to few albums. Soaking it all up and seeing if I get the love. I've decided that she is by far the more enjoyable to listen to.

That's not to say Coltrane doesn't have some alright stuff but give me Alice Coltrane any day.

Amen. Also, Rat Salad is prescient given our current zoonotic disease situation. Check out vids of those Chinese “wet markets”, some very problematic practices there leading directly to our current situation. Literally: bat soup

Love her first four albums. There are others from mid-70s I’ve heard which I do not love, haven’t heard them all though. The recent compilation drawn from her ashram/spiritual/new-age cassettes was interesting, better than I feared it might have been. Here is a link to a DubLab mix of her ashram tapes: https://www.dublab.com/archive/rbma-...ane-by-frosty/

Give John more chances when you are ready, he will give back to you. Pharoah Sanders too...

I've been in the same mode after watching a Chasin' The 'Trane on Netflix. It wasn't the best documentary, but there was some home movies that almost made me weep. It wasn't the serious, searching Coltrane you see in all the album covers. It was a guy goofing off in his robe with his children and dog, smiling. His warmth and spirit really radiated from that footage and I've been listening to his playing differently ever since.

You may have gotten to them already, but check out the albums they both played on together. Alice plays piano on Live at the Village Vanguard Again! and Expression, amongst many others. Her playing may have pushed him further 'out', but that warm aura from her albums is also on those 2.

It was because of that documentary I decided to go on a splurge. I've had Love Supreme for a while and never got on with it. I decided to get Blue Train and Giant Steps (the last one for the song Naima alone) and eh.

My issue is his insistence on overplaying. I'd rather hear four notes than the 20 in 10 seconds he does. He does it on Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue album too and it does me tree in.

Bob Dylan released a new song, 17 minutes long. Couldn't really grab me, but then the YT autoplay switched over to Joan Baez. Beautiful, check out this concert from Netherlands in 1967 for instance

Holy SHIT! Fuck lockdowns, this is far more important.

小圈子 by 輕描淡寫

Yuri Landman, quite Youth-ian but really good. Special version comes with a Landman-designed instrument integrated into the album cover

Saragossa Manuscript OST, in honor of Penderecki's passing.

i'm currently re-listening to every sy album because i want to do a review of every sy album

Haha, that'll be a fun isolation project.

I am listening to Weezer's white album, which is apparently their last good one according to some of my friends. They're not my friends anymore.

SONS live @KEXP
(Kex Hostel in Reykjavik during Iceland Airwaves 2019)

in honor of Pendereckis passing too. wow.

This is excellent by the way. I‘ve seen the cover before.

Do you know any other artists like this you can recommend?

i needed a little afternoon wakeup and got me some numbers in the headphones

I have finally gotten my record collection in order, alphabetized and sorted by genre. I was surprised to find I have around 120 12" singles, so I was spinning a few of them. Awesome shit.

Erykah Badu - Next Lifetime


Black Star - Definition


OutHud - One Life to Leave

Not really, I just sort of stumbled upon it??? It’s been blowing me away.

This totally unrelated, but it’s growing on me:

Northeast Ungeon Siege

Frank Zappa - Mystery Box
Listened to disc 4 until 8 today
(actually I've forgotten where I started)

always on heavy rotation

Currently, my Spotify Daily Mix 5. Which is largely made up of Lightning Bolt, Black Dice, Melt-Banana, and varying Zach Hill projects. (Plus the one Merzbow song that snuck in there.)

still hell bent for priest!!!

yesterday i listened to alice moki jayne by thurston moore, tasmania by pond, and the slow rush by tame impala

oh and also home (the artist)

I used to rock this as a teen. I still love the live version of Metal Gods.

Deceiver by DIIV. Really rating this album.

Sabaton - Primo Victoria :D

As you might know I'm usually not the biggest fan of electronic experimental music, but this track I like!

Psychonic Imagining - Nothing Is Often Ignored

Yesterday whilst enjoying a fine spring evening from my kitchen window.
