  • Good to see you back, Greg.

    Streaming from Bandcamp. I'm enjoying reading about and listening too this micro-mini genre called "vaporwave" which is sort of like chopped and screwed elevator music.

    Two new tracks from Bellowhead. I suspect, therefore, that a new album is on its way

    Update - due mid October

  • @amc2 - shouldn't vaporwave mean you promise to make a great album for years but then it turns out the band never existed? (Sort of like Porcupine Tree before they decided to actually exist). That album's actually surprisingly pleasant given your description.
  • I'm not sure any of what's being called vaporwave exists as a band ... I'm getting the term, and sort of my description from Tiny Mix Tapes, which has been reporting on vaporwave for a few months. TMT (and micro-mini genres too for that matter) can be incredibly annoying, but also can be very enjoyable.

    Try googling "tiny mix tapes vaporwave" and start following links; a lot of enjoyable and pleasant stuff out there to stream or download free.
  • Thanks, amclark2, now I'm in the vaporwave rabbit hole. Productivity has lost the day...

    I love this community so much. Where else would I find music fans as nerdy as I am?

    The Bersarin Quartett are preserving me from the vaporwave vortex for the moment, but I feel gravity's pull....
    (Thanks to whoever first posted these folk - very nice stuff.)

    Hah! Found old spare mouse in reorganization of mancave - plug into ancient laptop and voila, right-click at last.

    Got this new CD through an Amazon other seller for about $10 with shipping - I like it, but I don't know I would rec it for anyone who was not both a Hendrix lover and at least fan of Gary Moore. Live show from London, 2007. I enjoyed listening to him doing Hendrix (guest appearance by Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox a nice extra) but for a casual fan or listener it would probably be more rewarding to listen to them doing their own thing.

    And another new release - new Nils Frahm album (= very important event)! And it's free at the moment. See free stuff thread. Very excited to listen to both this album and the other I just posted and temporarily abandoned half way through for this one - how many afternoons do you discover two exciting new releases in 15 minutes? I can even forgive them for both being grey.

    ETA on a first listen, not as magical to me as Felt was, but very nice.

    Bersarin Quartett - II
    - "Opening with a low rumbling drone, the second release by Bersarin Quartett slowly evolves into a soundtrack for an enchanting fairy tale. And although ‘magical’ may be a word that some may find a bit too trite, it is a first word that comes to mind. Perhaps ‘majestic’ is a better word. These fantastical sounds on the appropriately titled II come from the imagination of Thomas Bücker, who seems to cross over the genres with courage and ease. Plucking only the best elements of ambient, modern classical, and even glitchy IDM, Bücker meticulously builds cinematic soundscapes that take the listener through hidden dimensions, with sonic vibrations, to strange unknown worlds.
    - This is the music to fall in love with. Fans of Max Richter, Murcof, Rafael Anton Irisari, Deaf Center, Olan Mill, Marsen Jules and Jacaszek will agree."

    ETA 2: Track 5, "Perlen, Honig oder Untergang" from II is out of this world !
  • @BN, thanks, yes, I looked those up earlier this afternoon after listening to the live one. Added to the SFL!
  • Big Baroque Box - Scarlatti Sonatas, Kenneth Cooper on Harpsichord. Fantastic!

    One big advantage of being part of emusers is finding out about such great music available for free or NYOP, thanks Kez
