are "banh mi ringtones" and "cummins falls" the same song?
i think they might be
i like the latter slightly better bc it has a more persistent beat

For those compiling your year-end lists, this playlist includes all the available tracks on this thread, organized roughly chronologically in order of mention:

monolithic: (of an organization or system) large, powerful, and intractably indivisible and uniform.

Think he was angling for the "uniform" aspect here, which I get from the aspect of how Fahey is sometimes written about. Grayson has covered and written a lot about metal, so perhaps that is seeping into all of his writing. \''/

oh haha yeah metal def has a lot of "monolithic" riffs

we're talking about colter wall in the country thread but you guys might dig him (i can't open this entire thread for some reason so can't see if you guys have talked about him already)

Just posted this on the classical thread but, similarly, it might interest people here as well:

Takoma Park very much going to be the place to be (and some kind of nexus of most activity on this thread)come April. Gonna try to go myself, but of course it is only a couple of hours away for me.

coooool

holy shit

Yeah, it is the motherload. Only problem I see is that Friday night seems to be 5 different venues hosting show simultaneously, so there would be a lot of picking and choosing about who you would go see (and who you would have to skip). Always tough to choose in those situations, especially with this many interesting folks laying it down.

grandavis, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 17:45 (six years ago) link

Needless to say, if anyone wants to head this way let me know! Would be a good place to meet up and hang.

grandavis, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 17:45 (six years ago) link

I really really want to go if i can swing it moneywise....i'll def let u know if i can....

global are you gonna go?

bhad and bhabie (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 30 January 2018 19:14 (six years ago) link

ehhh i think i need to sit it out, planning trek to milwaukee psych fest not long after and have a couple other trips this summer and am getting a little overextended. also this might be some heresy but that might be too many acoustic guitars for even me! jealous of those located closer to

global tetrahedron, Wednesday, 31 January 2018 17:29 (six years ago) link

haha, pretty wild — though, yeah, possibly too much of a good thing? that is a whole lotta fingerpickers. (obviously it would be a blast)

tylerw, Wednesday, 31 January 2018 18:06 (six years ago) link

hey Fahey thread folks. i am in love w/ this song (by a normally non-instrumental psych-pop artist) and am hoping you all can tell me what instrumental guitarists / American Primitive / whatever pickers might also be down this alley ... and thus up mine:

https://dougtuttle.bandcamp.com/track/peace-potato

i'm not so much looking for similar sonics / production (though that's fine too) more like similar in terms of melodic style, picking style, etc.

alpine static, Thursday, 1 February 2018 15:13 (six years ago) link

i immediately thought of the latest imaginational anthem comp (8) when i put that on, 'the private press' one

global tetrahedron, Thursday, 1 February 2018 15:35 (six years ago) link

okay just fired up that comp and it's exactly what you're looking for, promise

global tetrahedron, Thursday, 1 February 2018 15:37 (six years ago) link

that doug tuttle is really good thanks alpine

bhad and bhabie (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 1 February 2018 15:40 (six years ago) link

he's one of my favorites of the past few years, but just be aware that his three solo albums are mostly perfect Beatles-esque psych-pop ... there's lots of pretty guitar arpeggios (or whatever), but it's usually paired w/ vocals and synths and swooshy psychedelics and stuff like that. but as far as that stuff goes, he's incredible. a bottomless well of melodies. (he also used to be in MMOSS if anyone remembers that band.)

New Sarah Louise!

Dinsdale, Thursday, 8 February 2018 21:55 (six years ago) link

nice! also pre ordered the tashi dorji/tyler damon live release on family vineyard... they were insane here in mpls, very excited

global tetrahedron, Thursday, 8 February 2018 22:46 (six years ago) link

Man I would love to see Dorji/Damon live. I am sure the record will be cool enough but my guess is that live is the way to go.

grandavis, Friday, 9 February 2018 02:32 (six years ago) link

it felt kinda legendary

global tetrahedron, Friday, 9 February 2018 03:02 (six years ago) link

Nice when a show has that kinda feel. Tashi is cool in that he keeps pushing himself via collaborators. Cool player for sure.

maaaan how did i miss that?

It's not delivery, it's Adorno! (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 9 February 2018 18:33 (six years ago) link

The promo track from the Sarah Louise really surprised me. Is there any instrumental guitar on this?

Will look for the Dorji/Damon.

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Saturday, 10 February 2018 22:36 (six years ago) link

Nah, she sings on every track.

Dinsdale, Saturday, 10 February 2018 23:11 (six years ago) link

xxp there was a FB invite going around! it was at mirror lab/white page. seems to be the epicenter for this sort of stuff if and when it happens in mpls these days... a couple weeks ago was ka baird/paul metzger/john zuma individual sets and collab. i didn't go but heard great things. (m@tt b recorded it actually!)

global tetrahedron, Sunday, 11 February 2018 00:59 (six years ago) link

love ka baird!
i have been a fan since the peak spires days -- i think she may be the chicago musician i have seen perform most frequently since for a while she/they were opening for everyone i wanted to see at the time
i like her traveling bell songs a lot too
spires has a really cool tape with drummer michael zerang too, it's probably on bandcamp? her stuff is always pleasantly far out. would recommend.

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Sunday, 11 February 2018 01:11 (six years ago) link

dang I quit Facebook for awhile it's kinda weird you end up very out of the loop

It's not delivery, it's Adorno! (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 11 February 2018 03:04 (six years ago) link

ah damn dude well i'll email you or something next time. you're not missing much otherwise

ka baird was also amazing at drone not drones! they professionally record and release that so for sure check it out when the time comes LL!

global tetrahedron, Sunday, 11 February 2018 04:13 (six years ago) link

did we talk about this ezra feinberg record? i dig it! https://ezrafeinberg.bandcamp.com/releases
also, a new itasca tape over here: https://dovecove.bandcamp.com/album/itasca-morning-flower

tylerw, Monday, 12 February 2018 16:24 (six years ago) link

new itasca is sounding great — mostly instrumental.

tylerw, Monday, 12 February 2018 16:41 (six years ago) link

I don't think I can sit out 1000 Rose :) Got to be there for the buds and the family so to speak. It's probably one of the few moments where we (royal we) will get to all see each other in person? All at the same time and place—will be strange and exciting. But Willie Lane? Harry Taussig? Ragtime Ralph said he's going on the Yahoo forum, def will have to say hi to him. Grandavis let's meet up, plus anyone else reading that might be going.

Neal Cassady, Wednesday, 14 February 2018 15:39 (six years ago) link

Yeah, still trying to make sure I can get to this, but I should be there! Once I know for sure I will be in touch on how to meet up etc. Happy to do the same with any others looking to make this happen.

grandavis, Wednesday, 14 February 2018 15:55 (six years ago) link

I really want to go, financially it might not be possible but if I can make it I would love to meet yall irl

It's not delivery, it's Adorno! (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 14 February 2018 16:20 (six years ago) link

i had a change of heart, see you all there :)

global tetrahedron, Wednesday, 14 February 2018 22:37 (six years ago) link

Why is the Itasca recording so hissy after the first two tracks?

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Thursday, 15 February 2018 00:38 (six years ago) link

Oh, it's just tracks 3 and 4 that sound like that.

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Thursday, 15 February 2018 00:39 (six years ago) link

Some really nice stuff there.

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Thursday, 15 February 2018 01:31 (six years ago) link

Nice Global, seems like I need to get on top of getting a ticket. Will be in touch as that event gets closer.

grandavis, Thursday, 15 February 2018 14:17 (six years ago) link

Wife and I are debating it! April might be a busy month for us as we're moving potentially around then.

Evan, Thursday, 15 February 2018 15:19 (six years ago) link

yep, really hope my wife finds a job
