so, i'm really curious, saer: what styles of music, generally, do you listen to? for someone to have heard one record on all these lists is stunning to me. i get that there's a whole big wide world of music out there, interested to hear what your corner of it is.

i know ppl hate on war on drugs, but the beck album appearing so often and so highly is way weirder to me....like WoD does have a unique sound/feel, or at least a brand of retro that hasn't been done often..but many i'm not a beck hater and how can you see this current one as anything but a way weaker sequel to "sea change" w/o any memorable tunes?

I just want to post this description, if the NPR classical album of the year (which is also in my top five)
John Luther Adams - Become OceanThis is the piece of classical music of 2014 that has crossed over to a mainstream audience, and rightly so. Put it on speakers and people will stop what they're doing to say, "What is this? I love it!" Written as a meditation on rising — and ultimately all-consuming — tides, Adams has created a work that is both an orchestral showpiece (written, actually, for three juxtaposed mini-orchestras) and a completely haunting inner journey. The Seattle Symphony should be hugely proud of having commissioned Become Ocean and their stellar performance under conductor Ludovic Morlot. — Anastasia Tsioulcas

I went through the entire Textura list (or as much of it was on Spotify). My favorites, roughly in order:
Ian William Craig: A Turn of BreathVicky Chow: Tristan Perich, Surface ImageDeath Blues: Ensemble36: Dream TempestMarvin Ayers: Ultradian Rhythms
That said, my tastes run more toward ambient/electronic. There are a lot of modern composers on here who had some good stuff--pieces I'd like to see in a theater setting but not anything I'd listen to on my home stereo.

maybe am i just downloading albums in order to have an interesting looking set of directories rather than because of their intrinsic merits

The Ian William Craig album has shown up on a few lists besides Textura. Most notably I think it rated highly on Ben Ratliff's list for the New York Times (if memory serves. It's all voice and tape loops, or at least I think that's it. I've only listened a few times but of all the new-to-me albums I've held onto for further investigation due to these lists, this one is probably highest on my list.

ahhh...
I am allergic to ordinariness and I can’t understand people who don’t let art and music affect them to the point that their very existence is permanently re-formatted. Otherwise what’s the point? But I find I don’t have much in common with many music writers or authors in general. I like to look good, I like to keep in good shape, I like to fight, I box every week, I’ve been boxing for years, I like to look after myself, I love beautiful women and stylish men, I like good food and good beer, I like fine things, I like to smell good. I find that people involved in underground or alternative culture – on the whole - are simply buying into yet another orthodoxy or way of being where there are certain standards and rules of behaviour and political suppositions and interests and looks, even. I am not into that at all and can’t relate to it. That is why I am most attracted to unique people, to one-offs, to extraordinary lives. That’s what I most want to capture in my profiles, the personality of the artists, the way they live their lives as a total artwork, voracious artists like Peter Brotzmann and Derek Bailey. But I also find extraordinary people in all walks of life, which is why I also like to move in fighting circles and drinking circles and fashion circles and wilderness circles and magickal circles and astronomy circles. Anything that isn’t ordinary and that might attract extraordinary people. Otherwise I need to get the hell away from it.

― Ottbot jr (NickB), Sunday, 21 December 2014 22:06 (nine years ago) link
anyhow... best discovery for me so far off the boomkat lists is the arne deforce & mika vainio album 'hephaestus', deforce being a cellist with a background in feldman and xenakis etc. there are a couple of broiling noise workouts, but also some subtler stuff they explore more brooding atmospheres and the whole thing has the most horrible toxic sheen to it, it's just great stuff
biggest disappointment is EVOL's 'Rave Synthesis Approximations of György Ligeti's Continuum, Part III', whose title promises much but... can anyone listen to more than three minutes of this?
