Now available to stream. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/01/arts/music/de-la-soul-catalog-streaming.html A major blind spot in my hip-hop knowledge. I know the singles everybody knows but most of this stuff will be completely new to me cos for whatever reason I never bought their albums back...

I noticed this tag in the autechre thread and clicked on it and loads of threads are tagged with it I'm not angry just curious

come on tell me who are the best ones, the ones pushing things forward, the ones that mean the most to you, the ones that we should all check out. music art film books, everything

Noone on the other CYM thread admits to changing their mind (Jenks was right) and definitely no actual examples or climbdowns, so far anyway... So here we are in the music forum What music did you change your mind about? Why?? Did dissensus make you do it?? Matthew posted this ages ago (Haim...

Who've you got?

***PLEASE REFRAIN FROM ANSWERING THE POLL UNTIL LUKA AND STINKYBOY HAVE EACH HAD A CHANCE TO MAKE THEIR CASE*** This thread is for the two of them to demonstrate the intensity of their loathing for the country's foremost curator of twee archaic dialect words for a particular type of cloudy...

watching that Bacon film and reading Ulysses has me wondering where this stuff is today. Is there even an audience for 2020's equivalent? Tom McCarthy's contention's that if James Joyce were alive today he'd be working for Google...

EDIT: Version has advised me to changed the title. Now open for party tricks/savant abilities/areas of expertise/cultivated talents.

anything after and including "beggars banquet" no brian - he only played on one tracl on beggars banquet. generally more consistent. better? more "powerful"? mystic? going to travel to the far end myself... this always strikes me as very close to liquid liquid/esg territory

That's why HH is a guilty pleasure, lack of gravitas. How does sense of humour work in music then? generally it's not a good thing - there are no straight up joke songs that should be taken seriously, by definition. but i think its importance is often unrecognised and maybe hard to...

I've started listening to music again. I'm softer gentler more patient more prone to jazz

Apparently they've just dropped a bunch of live sets and have two new albums on the way,

what would you like?

On the back of Barty's mostly singles canon can we have an albums one. Some comments on the album would be good too. People post albums. Users do the “ta” button on the ones they like and the ones with lots of ta’s become canon.

some of it is really dull but some of it is far preferable to kuido or whoever, the right amount of melodic synth texture over stepper rhythms. melodic dub fast techno/dnb crossover, if you will. huge great echoing gong thing. what attracts me to this stuff more than contemporary dubstep...

Doodles, more technical things, abstract, figurative, the whole shebang. stuff from right now, today, this week, ideally, but archive is also fine i suppose. paitings also fine i guess. also comics. all tools and technologies allowed though - ipad drawings, phone sketches etc are all fine...

this has been a dyad lurking implicitly in the subconscious of a lot of threads for a long time; the bladerunner jungle stuff, communist music reviews, arguably even michael jackson vs princess. you’ve got to have the gods and magic with the sci fi. the matrix has all the computers but it also...

Go.

Go on then go on then draw for the choons. 20 goon choons. The illest drill. An impassioned defence of a much maligned genre. Why does it matter? Why is it life enhancing? Why should we bother? An explanation of what makes it top 20 worthy. Quotables. The great lost RA/Fact/Wire article...
