I like Ricardo Villalobos, but all I have by him is a bunch of assorted tracks. What's a record of his I need?

Sure... but that doesn't mean it's not true.

I mean, almost all my posts are ironic... with some sprinkled bits of truth. I don't mean to start some kind of fight... but I don't see people arguing this point anyway, because in all seriousness, if Thurston declared any random band "GOD." then 85% of this board would check them out immediately. It's a fact. I just find that funny... it doesn't necassarily mean anything good or bad. But certainly I don't see Thurston worshipping This Bike is a Pipe Bomb, for example.

Derek · 10.04.2008, 05:51 PM

I don't even pay attention to what Thurston likes...

atsonicpark · 10.04.2008, 06:01 PM

Good.

Derek · 10.04.2008, 06:19 PM

And most of the stuff he mentions in interviews is stuff that most people here would be familiar with without Thurston's influence.

atsonicpark · 10.04.2008, 06:20 PM

I dunno about that. I certainly can't see anyone getting into (or liking) Be Your Own Pet (Paramore Lite) without Thurston's influence. But hey.

Derek · 10.04.2008, 06:26 PM

Well he usually mentions Zorn and Derek Bailey when I read interviews, I dunno.

batreleaser · 10.04.2008, 07:05 PM

thurston listens to good stuff, but i would never love something just because thurston loves it. but on his myspace page he mentioned a bunch of amazing stuff; halflings, beherit, mayhem, teenage jesus, the fix, mutant ape, prurient, so much other stuff. the guy does have great taste.

Derek · 10.04.2008, 07:07 PM

Of course he listens to good stuff, he's really just one of us haha.

atsonicpark · 10.04.2008, 07:08 PM

deleted!

In a shocking act of good taste in my part.

Derek · 10.04.2008, 07:21 PM

I don't see the big problem in the board... sure, some good music gets overlooked but think of all the good music we discuss regardless!

I only post here cause I like talking to people about music no one in my real life knows or even knows I listen to. And I love finding out new bands by people more experienced in music listening than I am.

atsonicpark · 10.04.2008, 07:25 PM

Well, as I said, my problems with this board don't really have anything to do with what we're talking about. It just reminded me of some stuff.

I've just been in a shitty mood lately, don't mind me...

Anyway, back to this thread.

batreleaser · 10.04.2008, 10:27 PM

if charles bronzon put out a record this year it would easily been one of the best of the year

Massassinated · 10.05.2008, 06:19 AM

Listening to the new Kazuki Tomokawa release right now. Very good stuff indeed.

edit : albeit too short

atsonicpark · 10.05.2008, 07:23 AM

yes.

My favorite by him is still fault of flowers but this one is great too. Dreams Die Blithefully Day By Day is also awesome. I need to get some more.

Derek · 10.05.2008, 03:11 PM

So much music, so little time!
