    CocoRosie - Grey Oceans

    Obviously they are a bit polarizing, but I find this album beautiful.

    I feel like the mix CD I'm making needs a Polvo track, but can't pick one out...
  • I didn't even realize that they had a new album out. I'm a sucker for elegiac cello - something I blame on hearing Eleanor Rigby as a wee lad.

    Schütz is a recent discovery. That is to say I discovered I bought an album of his music among a flurry of classical that came down the pipe at Amie, and didn't get a chance to listen to it until recently. Here's my second, more thoughtful purchase.

    The Heavy - The House that Dirt Built

    Dirty blues and R&B infused rock that is good for far more than just a car commercial.

    On sale for some reason. 11 tracks for 6 nps.

    Great crazy lo-fi Middle East free jazz. Avail at Amazon, doesn't appear to be on eMu.

    This album revealed to me my next career: selling taquitos and papaya drinks from a pedal cart with a mobile soundsystem in seaside tourist towns in Maine.
  • Can I be your assistant manager, elwoodicious? I can jog alongside.

    Frontier Ruckus - Deadmalls & Nightfalls

    I listen to way more country and bluegrass inspired music these days than I ever would have thought.
  • @cafreema, better yet lets team up and sell twice as many taquitos to the sunburned and hungry!

    Could just be my stomach but Detroit techno would fit well on a mobile soundsystem attached to a taquito pedal cart.

    Still pedaling that cart...

  • Simultaneous or sequential?
  • Heh. I used to do some simultaneous listening with 2 or 3 winamp instances with some eai (electro-acoustic improv), stuff that was highly "sonic" and not structured. That often sounded quite good. Another good overlap was that stuff with middle-eastern or asian ethnic music. But no, that's just a mundane shuffle-play sequence.

    Boris - Pink

    I'm getting back to working on my Best of the Aughts list. Confirmed that this album definitely belongs!

    Thelonious Monk - "Coming On The Hudson" (Live at the Five Spot 1958, 1958)
    Mekons - "Abernant 1984/85" (Fear and Whiskey, 1985)

    Rainy, sleepy day; track seven, "Ready to Begin" is just about perfect for day dreaming about my taquito push cart with mobile soundsystem (@amclark2, take it for a spin!).

    Anubian Lights - Naz Bar

    Seriously overlooked electronic exotica album.
