Thom, I'd figure you for a superman-cover-version purist. Or perhaps they're hard to find now.

Ouch!

Wow, that's great. Cool. Well, that's a lot of music, so if people want recs, I'll start with Def Trance Beat, which kicks ass.

A shuffled selection of the 23 tracks my iTunes library tells me I haven't listened to in over a decade.

Gp, is your Touch 'online' during that time? Turning off connections might extend battery life, fwiw.

Squarepusher + Robots! - kinda awesome.

Incidentally, Gp, on the subject of 'eai', my pointer to this Michael Pisaro performance would be representative of "eai" or "post-eai" (depe…PaulR has it - streaming sites are wildly more convenient than going to the library, and extremely cheap - tailor-made for investigation.I use 'grouping' for marking mainstream jazz (using "mainstream" of all things), so I can easily access via playlist palatable "dinner jazz". I have thought of using it for my "ethnic"-tagged supergenre, but haven't gotten around to it yet, though I…Heh, Nereffid, Handel is exactly who I thought of as a counter-example to your rule of thumb above. I was thinking about posting on that, and thanks for doing it for me. I never liked Handel's music at all until I heard it performed "historically in…Not that it necessarily matters, but "eai" already has a pretty established descriptive presence and history in the music community, focusing on the more experimental side of things (Erstwhil…There's no "answer" to this kind of question - I think you just have to focus on functionality - what do you want out of whatever label you choose? For me, it's usually about if I want to shuffle a "genre", what do I want to hear come up with that k…An amazing release, now digitally available in full. Incredibly affecting.

Yes, that's devastating news. Gah. That he was my age does make me cringe, but just imagining no more work from him is shockingly depressing.I'm a longtime happy $5/mo rdio subscriber. I despise Spotify's messy, track-oriented interface and generally avoid it like the plague. I don't like ads either, so have no tempation to stop my (already ridiculously cheap) rdio sub.

My friend Steve…Not sure of best thread to put this:

As appropriate in this thread as any, very funny:
Cool Dad Raising Daughter On Media That Will Put Her Entirely Out Of Tou…I heard that a little while ago. I love the phase-shifting, how the pre- and post-echoes induce a sort of dreamy state where time's fuzzed out. Very effective.Gp. sorry, you must have missed the emusers charter requirement that you must have at all times >0 unheard tracks in your collection. You've obviously fallen behind on purchases and need to rearrange your budget accordingly and immediately!If it helps, I hear that song as reminiscent of a combo of Stars + Arcade Fire. Perhaps last.fm would provide leads based on 'similar to' those three bands.I've bought more than a few, there are some good ones, if you do the chore of browsing each genre.Doofy, I don't think so - some times I checked look like studio version, plus the Lacy/Rudd was not during that series.
Because "quality" in art resides solely in a judger's brain. Any sort of aesthetic consensus exists not due to the "goodness" or "badness" of the sounds, but because some/many people share physiologies (and backgrounds/experiences/etc) sufficient to…That writeup sounds like Davis was slightly annoyed he had to write about the album at all - a dismissive shrug from a non-fan.Gp: (Quote) "Should"? A less appropriate word to describe music rankings doesn't exist! Gp: (Quote)
