What have you been listening to?, part 2

[Rev. Powell]

"Abyss" by Anika. If you ever wanted to hear Nico in a post-punk band, this is as close as you'll come.

RC- I agree with you on the BB track. I didn't pick my favorite tune, I picked one that had the highest # of plays on YT figuring that would be popular. Try this short one if you want: https://youtu.be/kdGiSPGGJJ8?si=ixSvCXDab17iUmJP The album is probably more good background music than anything.

^ That's a little TOO mellow for me. I might fall asleep listening to that!

"Rathlin from a Distance | The Liquid Hour" by Yann Tiersen. Double album that's half acoustic piano, half pop songs.



"A Field in England" soundtrack

Dance music that it's impossible to dance to.

[Rev. Powell]

First album I've ever heard that made me think, "Damn, I hope that person gets an intervention soon."

[Rev. Powell]

This is going to be one of my top releases of the year for sure. Groovy sitar, I like 2 out of 3 cuts which is an incredible hit rate for me.

I've been listening to these vintage obscura monthly things on youtube. It's not really vintage, mostly from the 70-80s so far.

Rev- I think this would be right up your alley. It's smooth and cool.

Yeah, I dig that funky groove. Gritty but mellow. Should play over the credits of a blaxploitation flick. (BTW I'm cool, but not smooth!)



Electrojazz

[Rev. Powell]

Greek folk music that's sometimes traditional, sometimes avant-garde.

"Anxious" by Nell Smith. Interesting, tragic story here: Nell sang with the Flaming Lips as a teenager, then released this, her debut solo album, at 17 years old, then promptly died in a car accident. The album is too pop for me, but she was obviously very talented and had a bright future. RIP.

"Hex Key" by Mamalarky

[Rev. Powell]

"Throbbing Pouch" by Wagon Christ sounds like the punkiest record made in 1985, but it's actually "easy (or 'eazy') listening hip hop."
