    I definitely like Underworld, as well as psychedelic dance music, like Orbital and the Ozric Tentacles. I also recommend Daft Punk, especially their last album, 'Random Access Memories'.

    Nice pick on the Gnossiennes. More romantic and less modern in a weird way, in comparison to the more popular Gymnopedies, which I love as well. Both equally great to my ear.

    You for some reason reminded me of this underrated and very unknown English composer of the time:

    I really like the tempo of that performance. Some people play it really slowly or quickly. In this performance the notes seem to be describing a semi-random event. It also sounds Jewish to me for some reason.

    interesting. It has the power to take me back through time to the early nineties. It’s as if it was the soundtrack to my life at the time and I didn’t even know it.

    It has dated very badly. Is that the music’s fault or the way the music seeped through the culture? I don’t know, but I didn’t even like it at the time anyway.

    Do you "agree" with the music I posted? William Orbit is a dude, but I'm getting tired (once again) of these "agree" posts. And I'm not even joking; it truly is a pet peeve. Perhaps I'm just a cranky old man, even though I'm not old. I'm a man of words as well as music, so I guess I would appreciate a more in depth discussion than just whether or not I "agree" with...what?

    I'd say you're more of an agreeable man.

    My mood of this morning.

    It has passed a while since the last time I have heard this iconic song for melancholics.

    Thundercat himself is the bass player, so yes the bass is good. The sheer amount of chord changes on the C section is absurd. Fun music.

    Predictable oldies that I’ve posted before,,,

    Great use of Fripp and beautiful spicy harmonies. I couldn’t get tired of the Roches.



    Best guitar solo I’ve ever heard (at 3:00):



    The best song ever:



    Also the best song ever:



    This is the one I’m most into this evening:



    Actually maybe this is the best song ever:

    Truenorth is quite good, although it's kind of 3 songs in one. I love the last section.

    @Noble Dust

    I remember you showed me "nobody here" vaporwave song around the last year. It makes me feel nostalgia while I am alone in my home listening to it.
    Interesting, right? This song can make us feel different moods depending on the context.

    I'm a notoriously non-visual person; I don't remember anything about what stuff looks like. I have a hard time understanding visual art, whether paintings or dance or whatever. I've been a huge fan of the below piece since I was in college. This is a version recorded in studio by one dude; he replaced some of the instruments he doesn't play (strings, bass clarinet etc) with keyboards. It sounds like a gimmicky idea, but it's actually an excellent performance of the piece.

    For some reason, despite everything, at around 2:35, the first time I heard this piece a very stark image came into my mind: of people (dancers maybe?) dramatically turning their heads and seeing a somehow unexpected sunrise, and then irresistibly moving their bodies towards it with joy. I ugly-cried the first time I had this experience. I'm over sharing, but felt the need for whatever reason. Enjoy, hopefully.



    Edit: I forgot to mention that one reason I really love this version of the piece is that Erik's instrumentation and mix brought out elements of the piece that I had never noticed before, which I think is what triggered this whole spiritual experience for me.
