To complement the thread on what you've been playing. Any new albums you've been jamming to? I'm always open for new suggestions!
As for me, I've been listening to a lot of Erik Satie's piano music. Very relaxing stuff. Also have Haim's new album running in the background, as well as RJD2's new album.
What about you guys?
Additionally I would recommend checking out the weekly music thread posted by bfv just about every Sunday.

I listened to Lucky Ball & Chain 4 times yesterday..
I'm a huge Radiohead fan, stemming from an eventual transition from jazz into the weird and rhythmically fucked. but here's some new stuff I've found. Tigran Hamasyan, Armenian pianist, composer-
Serpentine The Spinners from the fable album, which is impossible to explain with just one track.
A bit of Andrew Bird (1 2) Madeon (1) Junior Boys (1) Aphex Twin (1) Air (1 2) Alt-J (1 2 3) Bassnectar (1) OK Go (1) Django Django (1 2) Everything Everything (1) Ronald Jenkees (1 2) YACHT (1) DyE (1 (NSFW video)) This is by no means a complete list, but it serves as a good representative. All of these are available on Spotify. Edit: formatting
Good call on the Andrew Bird songs, I'm a big fan of his and especially those songs. I also approve of the Aphex Twin. Good picks!
Fantasy's is a beautiful video. It's directed by Jérémie Périn who also directed this amazing video Flairs - Truckers Delight
Alt-J is a weird, weird dude. or band. or multiple-personality clusterfuck. All I know is his opening line to his most famous song is "in your snatch is pleasure, broomstick pleasure"
