please help me parse this fuckin NWW list

Maybe a good way to start with Taj Mahal Travelers is Takehisa Kosugi's "Catch Wave" solo release?
IMO any fan of free drone could fall head over heels for them. I don't listen to them very often just because I feel like they deserve undivided attention.
It's got a "holy drone" vibe, I think.

The first thread I started on ILM (Swedish prog folk) was looking for more bands who do Swedish psych folk prog the way Algarnas Tradgard and Arbete och Fritid do it. I think I like Arbete och Fritid a lot more than most people on the board. "The European Way" is so epic!

Taj Mahal Travellers C/D

It's got a "holy drone" vibe, I think.

ok sold sold sold

playing all nww list rekkerds next 2 hours, www.eastvillageradio.com (til midnight eastern us time.)

AWESOME

ok so far this debris thing is something i should already know about holy shit

as for the NWW the big discovery for me was Smegma, but I went into it repping for This Heat so they are prob my fave

i should prob not get started on NWW album recommends tho because uh ill be here all night.

Yes, ian, you star! Probably should go to bed rather than listening all night, though, it's already almost 4am.

emily the show will be archived and listenable from eastvillageradio.com under the academy records show.
most of this stuff is pretty 'surface' level...

i am putting aside the howling wolf documentary i was going to watch to listen to this. i will try to resist a full on liveblog unless other people show up on this thread tho - but i do want to say this taj mahal travelers thing is def hitting the right chord with me at the moment - also one of the more direct nwwoundy things ive heard off the list

Ah, brilliant ian, thanks. You have a lovely voice, btw.

aw thank you :)

oh and also re: the original thread question - cromagnon is one of the most mindblowing things i have ever heard (which i have to thank the metal alltime poll and emil.y for i think)

ok why the hell dont i listen to comus all the time

i know, i don't think i've pulled this record out in months.. so incredible.

this is so badass

Haha, yeah, I was responsible for getting that Cromagnon on the noms for the metal poll. Was so made up that people voted for it.

And yeah, Comus = serious genius.

ian do you do a show this time every week?

I have heard this International Harvester before, but never really paid much attention - going down a goddamn treat right now, though.

yeah i dl/ed a ton of the list, and this is reminding me why i hate doing that because i have realized that i only actually listen to stuff if i can hold it in my hands - so this is awesome.

i'm listening too! i just heard crazy ian talking!

jjusten, i don't do it EVERY week but maybe 75%-80% of the time. you can look in our show archives and it's pretty easy to figger out which shows are mine.

'crazy ian'

that should be your deejay name. all the best deejays have catchy nicknames.

DJ IJ

man steve reich is the best

seriously, he is. this is a great show to listen to stoned. or so i've heard...

btw when i say i appreciate you guys listening i REALLY do.. we consistently have the lowest number of listeners. i think that means i'm doing something right/ most weeks i play hippie rock & singer songwriter stuff with only occasionally 'weird' records sprinkled in

like i always feel like i should cram him down the throat of all my tape beetles and negativland friends (no offense to either) but he isnt really wacky enough

xpost oh tbf i will happily listen to hippie singer songwritery stuff as well

nww list for the win, if you ask me. you could make several great radio shows just out of this material. it lends itself to good radio. its radiowave music.

wait, are you playing all vinyl?

yeah i brought too many rekkerds. definitely have enough stuff for a sequel. i'm not playing any of the great postpunk, RIO, brit improv etc.

yes, skot, i am. ALL WAX.

btw i love that yer radio station playlist lists the labels for everything, thats awesome!

(an aside: if you ever find something from that (SPECIAL SECRET THING) i sent you and want to play it on your show you have my blessing. also i should prob digitize the rest of that stuff. too busy getting married and crap at the moment. but when i do i will send more stuff yer way)

Hey, you can like Tape Beatles and Negativland and Steve Reich, you know.

Anyway, I shall listen to the rest on the archive tomorrow, and hie me to sleep now.

no i like/love all of them, its just, steve reich is more work than them or residents, i have to kinda work people in slowly. the same way i use sylvie and babs as a gateway drug for NWW stuff. which never works.

yay robert ashley!

the masonic secret lies there.

this is the celebration of the changing of the light.

there;s a guy pressing his ear against the window to listen.

might follow this w/ dragging out "the courtald talks" tbh.

or maybe some bruce haack

thx for this btw ian, this is awesome

also i now realize that i have def been saying iannis wrong for a long time ha

i've probably been saying it wrong too, i just wing it.

hahahahaha this outro is hilarious to me

feel free to stay tuned and listen to two hours of DUDE ROCK!!!!

or i guess intro. either way. no offense to ACDC. but uh

no but seriously this is fucking killing me.

my show is directly after a hardcore show hosted by two of the guyz from murphys law.

please help me parse this fucking ACDC list

just some guys listening to some rock n roll music
