ITT: We discuss musical rabbit holes

last bump with a /meal/ classic

you guys don't know shit huh

So I found this album just digging through albums with spoken word sections on rym, with it being tagged as electronic-poetry-tapemusic. It looked cool, so I listened to it and loved it. Turns out, Ruth White was one of the earliest electronic music pioneers, and this record shifted the main style of electronic music form the earlier recordings of Stockhausen, which were chaotic and more orchestral, to a more simple style. The melodies on Evening Harmony just have so much power to them, and I love the whole record.

Not OP, nice bait.

It was in fact me, OP, ironic posting the most recently popular mainstream shit to question if it's what this board wants instead of cool obscure albums

anyway if this thread took of at least a little have another cool rare album I guess

Micachu (solo work & production for others such as Tirzah)

I'm the FoE user, tell me about this record. In the meanwhile, I'll tell you about this. This record is named shri camel, and it's by this woman named terry riley. I thought it was going to just be some wack hindu-fetishist type 70s prog, but it's not that at all. It's this weird microtonal ambient album with a serious American Primitivist bent and some droney vibes as well. Also, terry riley, the lady who made it, has a lot of recordings apparently?? I don't know, listening to this record is at once both peaceful and soothing, yet engaging and in motion. It's really incredible.

Hey OP, do you have an rym?

Oh, this one? 高中正義 [Masayoshi Takanaka] - The Rainbow Goblins. It's somewhat rare japanese city pop with a fairytale about rainbow goblins in english. Very happy and generally feelgood.

My RYM name may or may not be Helwy

Good Thread
>Asphyxiation - What Is This Thing Called 'Disco'?
Before there was !!!, there was an australian band called (doubt Yea Forums has the unicode so Left Arrow Up Arrow Left Arrow) That was pronounced as three tongue clicks. Their leader, Peter Brophy, was asked by a Melbourne university to create an exhibit, and in under two weeks he created to my knowledge the only 'post-disco' album ever. It's one of the best minimal synth albums I've heard, and definitely unlike any other minimal synth I've heard. He created a fake band (of members of *three tongue pops*) who lipsynced their performance at the exhibition with the reel-to-reel prominently in view, and had a friend of theirs pose nude for the cover, to subvert the near-naked women on the covers of most disco albums at the time. It's a really interesting look at how the 70s and 80s crossed over, and I also enjoy saying I like listening to 'penis music'.

this is pretty cool, wide variety of really good ambient-ish electronica (bad at genres sorry) with little to no internet presence

FoE user again, this one is pretty out there. This barry black fellow recorded 3 neo-psych albums in the 90s, and they're all really weird. This one sounds like the soundtrack to burying your dead pet as a child, only to be haunted by it in your nightmares years later.

Cult classic early black/death/doom band with a very sinister tone. Their guitarist lived like a recluse and in 2015 he went berzerk and gunned down his neighbor, abducted his 8 year old son and murdered him too and then gave himself a shotgun mouthwash.

>shotgun mouthwash
Can somebody tell me what this means?

It's when you put the shotgun into your mouth and press the trigger user, thus washing your mouth

Rocketship are definitely a lot more mainstream, but they still really impress me. What I love about them is howuch they bridged twee pop and shoegaze, without compromising elements of either. This release specifically feels so inspired and gorgeous.

That's what I was guessing

Here you go, far and beyond what you could ever imagine. So many releases, some of the early noise releases one might not be as good compared to to everything else they have done but they are still great. If you look for music that completely transcends the human experience, its here.

Kinda underrated album desu.
What is fascinating about HKE is that he has a lot of aliases in the vaporwave genre, and his discography is also very consistent.

100% Clean and safe, I do it every morning.

I also know a very underrated album called "A for Amiga" by Ctrix.
It's extremely fun and memorable, you should totally give it a try. It's not very long btw.

The Emotron is an underground cult phenomena in the synth punk world with some of the weirdest antics ever seen. Probably the most famous is his setting on fire of his penis when he played which he's done regularly for years. His live sets are some of the most entertaining and otherworldly that I've seen. There's videos of him on YouTube vomiting to bomb the music industry songs. His music is maintains humor while also being a field of references both to his own lore and pop culture. The list of weird things this guy has done is beyond lengthy and his music is super rewarding as a catalog for a fan. Been telling mu about him for years, can't recommend getting into the emotron enough, its life altering

Thank you based stranger I will check him out too

wHAT?

not a representative of leftfield, in fact the opposite: his debut singles released on XL got huge traction followed by an album leak accompanied by a single tweet denying relation to said release that sees his career as a niche pop star out.

Oh yeah lol, I literally have this album saved on the "to listen" list, and it fits the theme of the thread so well. Thank you for reminding me!

They have done almost every single genre you can think of and even invented a few themselves, if you don't know them you literally missing on one of the most important artists of this century.

this was recorded in a school REALLY close to where i live in the 70s where they just did covers for paul, bowie and the beach boys. for some reason it just got a lot more popular in the early 2000s and is also an inspiration for school of rock.

ferraro/skaters was my answer too

Spencer is even more underrated.

Back when ELECT THE DEAD came out, a friend told me Serj had some other "solo" project aside from SOAD. I hunted this piece of beauty down.

Oh shit, that's wild. I always saw him reffered to as Riley, e.g. Riley wrote the album in 1980, so I assumed his gender as female.

Found this album a while ago, pretty interesting deep internet shit

Thanks user, I have a lot of music to listen to

I'm generally interested in noise, but noise groups that seem to be espousing a specific philosophy especially pique my interest. It's all the more interesting when their music is ambiguously noise. I guess I like outsider noise that aims towards something closer to experimental electronics? For a while I've been listening to Men Behind the Sun. Some of their releases are boring, especially the obscure spin-off walls that they've done. In general though their focused releases have been exactly my taste, and following their facebook page just makes me that much more interested. To me, they are at the end of the noise rabbit hole I have been down for some time next to (but for different reasons) Cremation Lilly, Whitehouse, Aaron Dilloway Ryoji Ikeda, Karasyozoku, Ground Zero and Kisha.

I got into this record around the same time I came to love Annie Gosfield's Burnt Ivory And Loose Wires. Not the same really at all - but both great experimental electronic records

What about Pimmon's Assembler? It's a great album, but impossible to find anywhere does anybody know where to find it?

tonetta is great, i think faggot hipsters know enough about him so he's not completely "obscure". no doubt the man is cuckoo though, in an unironic way.
i've never fucking seen ground zero discussion on Yea Forums before, always just discussion on sachiko m's solo work (which i haven't seen discussion on in years either) thank god i stumbled upon this thread
do any of you know what this is, i've haved it bookmarked since 2015.

there's some related videos of some j rock groups performing it, but nothing more about sachiko m's relation to this song. did sachiko m ever have a pop project?

>I feel like an idiot but his music sounds retarded as hell to me everytime I've tried to get into it
It's understandable, but i think it really depends on the album. Stuff like Far Side Virtual or the actually sound kinda retarded, but a lot of his albums have incredibly weird atmospheres, expecially his other aliases.

Magma. They sing in their own language, to sell their space-opera aesthetic with idea that they're from another planet, and their music basically created an entire genre called Zeuhl (which translates as 'celestial music').
Despite some people thinking they're nazis (Christian Vander has one of those perverse fascinations with the ultra-bombastic aesthetics of fascism which colors their music moreso than an actual nazi/fascist ideology), their whole thing is really an approach to the gospel-y spirituality of free jazz but from a more european, non-derivative perspective - the idea being that they wanted to recapture the feeling they had while listening to something like John Coltrane's ascension while at the same time not just ripping off african-american cultural identity. They sing these long repetitive passages that get them to a kind of trance-like state (both because of their repetition and being a bit out of breath), on top of the insane polyrhythms that seem to fold infinitely into themselves. it's quite amazing stuff. some examples:

I feel like you would really enjoy The New Blockaders.

Great thread. Ground-Zero posters - I swear Otomo Yoshihide has collaborated with hundreds of underground Japanese musicians. He's on a whole laundry list of free improvisation albums as well as more conventional pop. You could practically fall in that rabbit hole for years and still find new stuff.

I'm a good friend and collaborator of David (he doesn't go by HKE anymore) ask me anything within reason and I'll answer.

But what you do need to know about him is that he's quit music forever. He's pursuing other things because he produced so much music to the point that he grew sick of it. He even argues that "music is finished" and that there is no room to innovate or explore.

check out Dark World Records if you're into Bladee/2010s hip hop in general, one of the most interesting collectives I've come across. Just a bunch of regular ass dudes from western Massachusetts, but they work hard at what they do and make some really interesting stuff. Once you get their vibe, watching & listening to their stuff can get pretty addicting, especially because there are a lot of members and most of them are pretty interesting in their own way

Few example videos:

youtube.com/watch?v=ThuKWNNoXwI
youtube.com/watch?v=Jj1I-OIYFg4

DJ Lucas is kinda the leader of the collective, has a couple videos with views in the hundreds of thousands, like this one:
youtube.com/watch?v=rK2JJs1sWgU

that argument's kiiiinda bullshit tho. no disrespect to the guy, but that's the kind of thing artists convince themselves of because they've gone too far in a specific direction, or because they've come up against a 'wall' due to their own limitations and shit. again, no disrespect, i just think it's a bad mindset

I disagree with him too and just had a debate about it today. It annoys me how he thinks things are over simply because he stops doing them or stops likeing them. He's now saying Twitter is "failing" because he stopped using it because he stopped enjoying using it.

He'll change his mind in the future probably. He still has interest in music as he has some new big plans for Dream Catalogue.

btw he also thinks that Ninja (the fortnite guy) had more of an effect on contemporary culture than any musician in the past 10 years lol

it sounds like his problem is that he's forgotten how to look outside his own bubble. that or he needs to convince himself that there's a good reason why he doesn't do the things he used to enjoy, when it might just be like depression or something. maybe even a bit of 'narcissistic personality disorder', which is definitely not uncommon in artists of renown

that being said, twitter and facebook do have a very real problem from their algorithms' priority of 'engagement' over all else, which leads to an influx of posts that elicit negative, rather than positive reactions (because it's more likely that you'll respond to shit that bothers you than nice things), and that has a profound effect on some people.

Hey man, thanks for the recs! I am currently reading Japanoise and I had a copy of WRECKERS OF CIVILISATION that I'll end up turning into a PDF if I can get. Other than the Industrial Culture Handbook and 20 Jazz Funk Grates, I hadn't read any of these others. Thank you!
