no you don't have to be stoned to liked it.
it just sounds to me like reconstructed, never-existed-at-the-time soundtrack music from the late 70s.

it's more like the avalanches in construction than sound. replace the avalanches hip-hop/r&b with lounge-y exotica

Once again, all descriptions of Silent Village make it sound like the best thing ever, but I still find it kind of boring.

More finnish psych-folk stuff.

Lau Nau’s abstract folk is a mosaic of a myriad of instruments that fall where they may, with free open structures, balancing on a thin wire of logical evolution, with surprising harmonies. Still, the songs have strong backbones. Melody is suggested through the contours of a wandering and warm voice. Lau Nau’s debut album is released by the Chicago-based label Locust and is an amazing slice of outdoor sounds, multi-instrumentation, surreal and lush vocals. “The music, compared to reading literature, is a book with the leaves spread in the order of a tree. You get a three-dimensional picture, like nature’s sounds from a human soul.”Lau Nau is Laura Naukkarinen and her wonderly wonderful friends. So far these helpers have been: Jonna Karanka, Merja Kokkonen, Pekko Käppi, Michael Northam, Tomas Regan and Antti Tolvi, who have performed on the records or in the live shows.

actually pretty psyched to hear this one, cheers pfunk
― Robin van Injury (country matters), Thursday, 12 February 2009 18:12 (seventeen years ago)
this one is the 2nd proper album though
― The User Formerly Known As Pfunkboy Latterly Known as.. (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 12 February 2009 18:12 (seventeen years ago)
If Lau Nau has made it, I've not given up yet on James Blackshaw getting in (tho I dont expect him to, there's still maybe a slight chance of being between 25 & 28)

quiet village? didn't hate but can't remember, it felt a bit like a more boring and kinda unnecessary version of studio/a mountain of one.

mmm i probably will but what with islaja and paavoharju already, i question much finnish psych pop i need in my life - don't think it's much more than mood music for me, sorry!
― lex pretend, Thursday, 12 February 2009 18:25 (seventeen years ago)
unless lau nau is substantially different to/better than the others?
― lex pretend, Thursday, 12 February 2009 18:26 (seventeen years ago)
Oh there's loads more of wonderful finnish psych folk out there. Lots of great finnish music in general.And you can find out about lots of it on http://www.foxydigitalis.com/foxyd/
― The User Formerly Known As Pfunkboy Latterly Known as.. (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 12 February 2009 18:27 (seventeen years ago)
It's not really psych pop. It's tomten folk.

I'm all for esoteric lists but I'm really starting to yearn for something a bit more vulgar to place. It's all getting a bit ambient and wibbly round here.

why are people who refer to Fred Durst as 'charismatic' gainfully employed?

yeah, who thought that the token R&B pick on a dance/indie-heavy list would be a cutesy "I'm eccentric!" critic's fave?

Every description of that Quiet Village album makes it sounds like some post-Ninja Tune/MoWax late 90s upmarket barber-friendly samplephonic fake-soundtrack bore. If I listen to it will be I pleasantly surprised?

probably, it's really warm... i mean if you dig balearic stuff you certainly won't dislike it
