There was a thread on "music giganticism" that I can never find, must be de-indexed.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Sunday, 26 March 2006 00:43 (twenty years ago)

Thanks Jaq, how did you do that?!? I've been using the search thing and getting nothing.

― Ned T.Rifle (nedtrifle), Sunday, 26 March 2006 00:48 (twenty years ago)

Oh, i think i might know why - it's Kinkade witha K?

― Ned T.Rifle (nedtrifle), Sunday, 26 March 2006 00:49 (twenty years ago)

Big Love: is anyone watching this?

― The Yellow Kid, Sunday, 26 March 2006 05:14 (twenty years ago)

Thanks Jaq, how did you do that?!? I've been using the search thing and getting nothing.

First, there was a loud annoying BEEP BEEP BEEP but the database wouldn't get out of the way, so I just rolled over it and squooshed out T. Kinkade!

― Jaq (Jaq), Sunday, 26 March 2006 05:44 (twenty years ago)

Very droll...

I can't find the thread on ILM about dj sets defining the "sound" of 2005. nathan fake and mandy were mentioned in there. I can't think of other keywords right now. can someone help?

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Wednesday, 29 March 2006 03:55 (twenty years ago)

um, the thread where everyone swapped arts projects, like the good old indiepop tape swap (anyone?) but with arts and crafty things. might've been a jel thread.

― koogs (koogs), Wednesday, 29 March 2006 06:47 (twenty years ago)

Rory - was it:

so which dj mix best summed up 2005? and which was the most extraordinary? ?

On what thread was it where two funny posters went back and forth for about a hundred posts, one posting an animated gif of frat guys juggling their balls and the other going "thank you sir may I have another"?

there's some good stuff on that thread. would prefer to start a new one though because i'm not interested in debating whether smart phones are good or not, just want a thread for people who are trying to be on their devices less. a lot of ppl are in extreme denial about this so i think it's best to be cordoned off somewhat

That's the 1950s one, you can extrapolate from there

if it's possible for a condom to be thinner than normal and still be safe, why wouldn't all condoms be that thin?

Wasn't there a poll recently about which island nation produced the greatest music?

― Cattedrale metropolitana di Santa Maria de Episcopio, Thursday, 26 March 2026 21:24 (two months ago)

Jamaica!

(Hmm, Britain is also an island nation)

― Andy the Grasshopper, Thursday, 26 March 2026 21:38 (two months ago)

Thread from a year or two ago (?), in the genre of threads about much-hyped acts whose critical standing has since shifted, and specifically where it turned into a long hard look at The Hooters and their peers.

― Mighty Morphin Is The Subject of My Sentence (Doctor Casino), Sunday, 29 March 2026 03:12 (two months ago)

I may also be thinking of The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

― Mighty Morphin Is The Subject of My Sentence (Doctor Casino), Sunday, 29 March 2026 11:15 (two months ago)

a long hard look at The Hooters

phrasing

― assert (matttkkkk), Sunday, 29 March 2026 11:41 (two months ago)

my attempt at Google searching ilxor.com for "Hooters" turned up far worse, i fear

Wasn't there a poll recently about which island nation produced the greatest music?

― Cattedrale metropolitana di Santa Maria de Episcopio, Thursday, March 26, 2026 5:24 PM (three days ago)

Which of these islands has the best music?

Doc Casino, was it this?

Past Critics' Darlings Re-evaluated as Duds?

― Josefa, Sunday, 29 March 2026 13:06 (two months ago)

Yes! Thank you. Less locked on to The Hooters than I'd remembered, but that's definitely the Fabulous Thunderbirds commentary I had in mind.

― Mighty Morphin Is The Subject of My Sentence (Doctor Casino), Sunday, 29 March 2026 15:55 (two months ago)

lol at "a year or two ago" meaning "from 2009 and i read it in 2021"

― Mighty Morphin Is The Subject of My Sentence (Doctor Casino), Sunday, 29 March 2026 16:16 (two months ago)

Was there a thread of terrible adverts you've been served on FB or wherever, or did I imagine it?

― Throw It Down Binman (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 17 April 2026 21:19 (one month ago)

the incredibly cring(e)y video of bono randomly scatting over a kickass western african band (perhaps tininariwen?)

May 4th is coming up. Is there an ILM thread dedicated to songs in 5/4? I’m making a playlist and I need ideas.

― Mr. Snrub, Saturday, 2 May 2026 17:17 (one month ago)

Because good luck searching for “5/4” in the search.

― Mr. Snrub, Saturday, 2 May 2026 17:18 (one month ago)

time signature choices

― Serfin' USA (sleeve), Saturday, 2 May 2026 17:21 (one month ago)

Songs that fool you about where the downbeat is.

I guess this is the closest thing. 5/4 just isn’t a very common time signature in music, har har.

― Mr. Snrub, Monday, 4 May 2026 11:02 (one month ago)

This thread has some - search: pop songs with weird time signatures and metric shifts

― Maresn3st, Monday, 4 May 2026 11:22 (one month ago)

This is one of my favourite 5/4 songs -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5DmdbFZk80

― Maresn3st, Monday, 4 May 2026 11:23 (one month ago)

Searching through the DePaul University library's LP collection in the late nineties, I turned up this extended version of one of the most famous songs in 5/4 time, Dave Brubeck's "Take Five".
While the original studio version is the gold standard, this goes to all kinds of amazing places with stretched-out exploration of the five feel. This is an epic live take. Have a good 5/4
