I love "Friend Zone" and "Them Changes" from the new Thudercat album although a lot of the rest is kinda clickbait Shuggie Otis, but I need a few more listens. I love the line "I'd rather play Mortal Combat anyway" on "Friend Zone"

Really digging on Austra - Future Politics and in particular the track Utopia. I'm bad at describing things like this, kinda reminds me of Kate Bush, or I suppose Dido? I dunno.

I'm loving this Greek Theatre album. Gorgeous psych-folk-country-rock from Sweden.

I wish I liked the Thundercat album more, but so much of it is just goofy shit.
― Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Sunday, 12 March 2017 01:55 (seven years ago) link
I kinda love the goofy bits beacuse its amongst some very strong songs

Laura Marling - Semper Femina
― _Rudipherous_, Sunday, 12 March 2017 02:50 (seven years ago) link
^I'm liking this so far. It's nice that she keeps taking her music in new directionsite. More polished and jazzy than Short Movie.
― Moodles, Sunday, 12 March 2017 05:42 (seven years ago) link

I really like it. The video for "Soothing" is a bit er, um.

I'm really loving Tennis - Yours Conditionally. Perfect for Sunday.
― dance cum rituals (Moka), Sunday, 12 March 2017 23:04 (seven years ago) link
Still warming up to "Semper Femina" - "Don't Pass Me By" is a great track.
― Carlotta's Portrait (Ross), Sunday, 12 March 2017 23:14 (seven years ago) link
A couple days ago I thought I wasn't even going to be able to get through the album (LM is pretty outside my usual) but then I came back to it the next day with Wild Once, which really clicked; then came back around and listened to the whole thing.
― _Rudipherous_, Monday, 13 March 2017 02:47 (seven years ago) link
Yeah it's outside my usual as well Rudipherous, tbh I like songs like "Soothing" and "Gurdijeff's Daughter" more than the other ones I've heard, which probably makes it clear I'm not familiar with her.
― Carlotta's Portrait (Ross), Monday, 13 March 2017 02:50 (seven years ago) link
"Gurdjieff's Daughter" is my favorite song of hers. Maybe it is Laura Marling for people who aren't into Laura Marling. I've always wanted to like her though. She always seemed really solid, just making types of music I don't listen to much.
― _Rudipherous_, Monday, 13 March 2017 03:05 (seven years ago) link
"Gurdijeff's daughter" is like a really solid Pretenders homage IMO
― Carlotta's Portrait (Ross), Monday, 13 March 2017 03:08 (seven years ago) link
"Gurdjieff" definitely one of her catchier tunes. It's not my favorite on "Short Movie" any more though. That honor would go to the lovely "Easy". Of the three albums I have by her, they all have there fair share of keepers.
― o. nate, Monday, 13 March 2017 03:30 (seven years ago) link
Mordy mentioned them upthread but the Sacred Paws album is great in an 'Electrelane play Vampire Weekend' kind of way. I really like the final track 'Getting Old'

Out of curiosity, how much overlap is there between the Linda Catlin Smith and Charli XCX crowds?
― pomenitul, Sunday, 26 March 2017 23:08 (seven years ago) link
EP:
Seiho - Un/Real
especially "Inmost."
Is there a Spotify playlist for this thread this year or did forks get sued?
― _Rudipherous_, Thursday, 30 March 2017 15:40 (seven years ago) link
Actually it's just UNREAL, no slash. Slash on the cover confused me.

I only just started listening to that Saagara album, it is top notch. I was aware of Zimpel and like his stuff, but didn't realise he had a project with an Indian orchestra.

Specially liking yours JF:.. heavy on the outsider pop and r&b... Where do you find all those songs in the first place? Most of these are very off radar for me but have great production.
