plz to contain pointless anger to DC threads

there's a palpable difference between wolfgang voigt being lazy (gas) and burger/ink: las vegas

the main difference being laziness, which tends to plague a lot of ambient music. just because it doesn't have beats and lyrics doesn't mean you can get away with being boring on purpose, or that all concepts hold water (TOMBOT: granular synthesis ate my balls, coming out in 2007)

kinda wish i still had my copy of 'las vegas'

what's that silva lp like

confucious rapidshared the one good hykes record, which is easily found at amazon, but still. he also has the 90's Eno CDRs -- worth hearing if you're a fan, though not as good as the earliers

http://differentwaters.blogspot.com/

also there need to be more ambient albums made with the dialogue from cable tv fishing shows

does BISK go on this thread or is he something else?
can we complain about namlook?

hmmm I was just gonna toss this -- been weeding my CD shelves this week --but maybe I should play it agin.

more ambient albums made with the dialogue from cable tv fishing shows

which ones? i have one called 'X Avant Festival, Toronto, Oct 25, 2008 bootleg'

http://www.sunblind.net/discography/mirages/mirages.html

ooh he has a new one on kranky

chihei hatakeyama

awesome, all of his records are awesome

yeah, this reissue series is going to bankrupt me

but at least i'll be very relaxed

As Yoshimura explained in the original liner notes, the album title in the context of this body of work is not meant to be seen as a color, but is rather used to convey “the comfortable scenery of the natural cycle known as GREEN”

i have never understood yoshimura's idea of what "Green" means, but luckily it doesn't need to make sense to be lovely

Green GREEN

Yeah,such fine news! Pre-ordered the lp this weekend.

I get the feeling it's not easy, being GREEN.

thanx Karl, looking forward to listening

Can someone recommend something similar to the first 7 minutes of:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm9r0vIZYUw

ISO slow, heavy reverb bright/clean guitar over soft drum machine.

definitely the first interior album

It's an old one, but that music put me very much in mind of an Australian guy who records as Lakes of Russia. Specifically this:

4xCD reissue of robert turman's "chapter eleven" collection (1976-1987)

https://robertturman.bandcamp.com/album/chapter-eleven-1976-1987

oh hell yes!! some amazing stuff on there

just a thought here. i'm 20 beers deep!

i'm going through all my records, picking out everything i don't actively like. my partner's starting up an ongoing thrift store kind of thing with all proceeds going to her mutual aid group. so i'm trying to include things that i no longer like (of montreal hissing fauna, for example, or julia holter) that would get higher donations, in addition to the true dollar bin garbage (the knack). i'm trying to be hard on myself and take away some things i really like, in the process, if i think it will help.

and it strikes me that when i get to my ambient section, i can't bear to part with ANYTHING. like, not a single damn thing. which leads me to this conclusion: "ambient", at least for me, is more like a food flavor, almost in a biological way that you could map to certain sections of the tongue. you would never want to get "rid of" your sense of bitterness or sweetness. ambient is like that for me. there are very few famous ambient "songs" ("an ending (ascent)", "requiem for dying mothers pt 2" are the first two that come to mind for me). ambient is a zone. we know this. but because of that, i have a very hard time eliminating any zones from my collection. i like all of these zones.

whereas, the knack, "my sharona", is not a zone. that is a pop song about a guy who always gets it up for the touch of the younger kind, my, my, my, aye-aye, whoa! it is a point. ambient is the zone

will any serious music critic refuse to debate me in a public forum?

I am completely with you on this one, dude, I’m just too baked atm to elucidate much further... but it’s like... ambient is a serious benign environmental alteration thing for me... duh eno definition of ambient... but yeah all these rooms and spaces to live in, I’m never not in the mood to visit Discreet Music side A, yknow? whereas like, “regular music” as Dave Berry puts it... foregrounds emotion in a way that (at my age or whatever) requires a specific emotional state to want to experience and actually enjoy. but yeah idk, over the years i’ve lost all taste for any kind of “extremely major key”/goopy “ambient” (see blech romantic sentimental ambient music), and a strong attraction towards more emotionally ambiguous/nebulous vibes.
so idk, do what you will with this post. <3

i will take your post and otm it

otm!

most excellent!

such an otm post. i've been meaning to start a thread about this for a while

i basically only f/w emotionless/emotionally ambiguous ambient. i think i've listened to discreet music 8000 times. honestly a lot of eno's stuff is too emotional for me most of the time

i can handle some major key new-age stuff, but i really don't like any of the dark/minor key stuff

#1 from selected ambient works vol 2 is like my ambient music bliss point, whereas i'm just about never in the mood for #5 or #22. i really don't like ambient with a "scary" vibe that sounds like it could soundtrack horror, or the stuff that makes u feel queasy
