I was told about 'trap' music a few weeks ago, by someone who is using it to influence his own music. But I haven't yet heard any 'trap' music per se.

Doesn't sound like it's my thing...
And my feeling is anyone on this board who's seeking out new-old or new-new music isn't "old". The people I know who stopped paying attention to music entirely 20+ years ago and have no desire to explore beyond their narrow confines - those are the old folks.

new-old vs new-new : thats a good point.
in the last few years my groove has mainly been all about new-old music.

I've been experimenting with my own genre - 'crap music'

Herein lies mostly everything that makes this the ultimate music message board. I have only used ILX for a few years. I found it accidentally when I googled hypnagogic! You learn more about new-new/new-old music here than anywhere else in the known universe. Nothing wrong with getting old, just don't shut up shop with your mind.

I know I sounded like a total purple veined dick, but I did mean it.

We all sound like dicks here. Or at least I do. I rarely mean it! :)

I fear I am the new millenium equivalent of an old hippy who only likes VU and Neil Young. HELP!

I was never confronted with this until I went to my 25th high school reunion. For some folks, music taste and identity is tied up with their high school and college identities and years down the line music for them was more important for them as a catalyst for those memories than as an ongoing concern.
Tonight, bored out of my brain, I got out the Clouds "Penny Century" album. It came out in 1991. I had forgotten how much I adore this album, and how much of a perfect pop record it is (gorgeous female harmonies, crisp guitar work, lovely production, the whole nine yards).
Co-sign on this. Penny Century is one of my favorite albums and should be as well-known as Last Spash

It really is a great album. They were excellent live too.

I saw their one (and possibly only) Los Angeles show back when they were picked up/instantly dropped by Elektra in 1993. Terrific show indeed! Heard good things about reunion shows this year...
― Elvis Telecom, Friday, 2 November 2012 03:19 (eleven years ago) link
reunion shows were ok, some of the vocals were a little rusty but generally the spirit was still there

OK, how have I been such a massive Breeders/Belly fan for almost two decades and only heard of Penny Century on this thread ten days ago? This is a damn good record and if someone had given it to me in 1993 and said "oh by the way, this predates Last Splash and Star" I would've p. much died of instant obsession.
