On a different day these could be different. Just what came to mind like you said.

Assuming you're an anarchist - what other literature/websites do you read often? I browse reddit's anarchist subreddits but with the popularity of anarcho-capitalism there there ends up being way too much content that is either just attacking them or debating with them. The debates I have no problem with, I'm just looking for more diversified/relevant content. Any suggestions?

I loooove Rosenwinkel! One of my favorite guitar players.

I meant to mention R Plus Seven in my own post, good call. The way he turns samples of human voices into something entirely different is spectacular. He's incredibly talented.

If you liked that one, I'd start the album that it's from - There's No Leaving Now, his newest. If you like that, then listen to The Wild Hunt. He doesn't have too much after that I don't think, so you could just listen to anything else you can find once you've heard those two.

Danny Brown - Side B. The whole album, really, but Rustie's production of this song is so great I figured I'd post this one.

Robb Bank$ - On Me. New tape Tha City, tons of great production from Spaceghostpurrp and Nuri.

Darkside - Golden Arrow. Collab between house or I guess deep house or something artist Nico Jaar and a really talented multi-instrumentalist Dave Harrington.

Tim Hecker - Virginal II. Ambient drone music, dunno if anyone else likes this kind of music, but Hecker's album from 2011 is probably one of my favorites ever.

Tallest Man On Earth - 1904. Great fall music, really great contemporary folk artist. Can sound a lot like Dylan sometimes but not always. Probably my favorite folk artist.

Great album, backed. Glad to see this group getting some love.

Dunno if you've heard of Spaceghostpurrp (he used to be tight with A$AP Rocky) but Bank$ is a current member of his....collective, I guess? called Raider Klan. Curry used to be in it too. Bank$ new tape tha city is really good if you like the kind of style those guys go for. And Flatbush Zombies are great as well.

It'd definitely be challenging, but with a good teacher you might be able to get pretty good

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3849 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Danny Brown - Float On feat Charlie XCX

This is like the shit I knew he could do because of the kinda stuff he did on the back half of XXX like Fields, 30, etc. He doesn't even need to get super hype to close this one off like he did on 30 though. Definitely one of his most musically impressive songs.

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3849 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: What kind of instrument do you play, and why?

Piano and trumpet. Been playing since I was very young, continue because I love it.

I'd participate, I'd probably be able to help with jazz or hip hop playlists

Gotta listen to INNANETAPE. Been listening to Robb Bank$, Danny Brown, Flatbush Zomebies, and Denzel Curry lately.

Also, not a new record, but I'm wondering if anyone's ever heard of Run The Jewels? Collab between Southern Coke-Rap legend and Outkast friend/Dungeon Fam member Killer Mike and NY underground production legend/Def-Jux CEO/Member of The Weathermen El-P. Style is really great and pretty unique, their different strengths go together incredibly well.

Sounds really interesting, I'll definitely have to give them a listen

Oh, I agree, I just thought it was a fun watch. Wasn't trying to make a "must-see" list.

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Thirty-Eighth Weekly "Share Some Music You've Been Into Lately" Thread

Sigur Rós is great but not exactly very obscure. Their last album debuted at #14 and their reddit AMA got almost 5k comments.

Anyway, I definitely agree. I really loved the new direction they went on Kveikur

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Any suggestions for similar music to A Tribe Called Quest?

Th Roots, Common, Digable Planets, Kanye's first 2 or 3 albums.

Red Sox fan, but if they get eliminated it's gotta be the Pirates. Have family in Pitt, love the team.

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: What are your favorite lesser-known televised comedies and dramas?

Comedy: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. David Cross & Will Arnett. David Cross lies his way to an accidental promotion and continues to lie and dig himself into an increasingly big hole.

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: What are your favorite lesser-known televised comedies and dramas?

A great show. I"ve only seen however much is on Netflix but I remember wishing there was more.

Never smoked one, how does the harshness compare to cigarettes?

To put it in perspective, I've been a casual redditor for a couple of years and when I saw your name I thought "isn't that guy from reddit?" and I've never had any type of specific experience with you.

SpaceIsOnlyNoise  ·  3851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Thirty-Eighth Weekly "Share Some Music You've Been Into Lately" Thread

Definitely a very powerful album. An incredible piece of musicianship imo, it's very hard to make a concept album that coherent and still have the music be as good as it is. Glad there's other people that are into hip hop on here, what other hip hop do you listen to?
