I'm looking for female-fronted trip-hop/chillout bands similar to Massive Attack, Portishead, Cinephile, Lovage. Heavy bass, and not too much of a jazz influence.

I'm looking for two completely different things: - Who are some lesser known / more obscure vocal jazz / swing-pop singers? I already know Sinatra, Martin, Nat King Cole, Bobby Darin, etc. I'm looking for some singers that may have slipped through the cracks or been lost to time. - Anyone have good recommendations for classic bluegrass? Other than Bill Monroe. There's probably some stuff on Folkways but I don't know where to start.

What are some good modern psychedelic rock bands? I've been getting into Tame Impala and The Flaming Lips lately. The Doors are also one of my favorite bands if they have any influence.

The Black Angels, Animal Collective, Spiritualized, various Ty Segall projects (he's got a huge amount of material that I'm unfamiliar with, but I'll say the album Hair he did with White Fence is great, maybe someone else can add more here), Thee Oh Sees, Black Moth Super Rainbow (kind of heavy on the electronics but I'd still call them a 'rock band'), Brian Jonestown Massacre

In addition to what Hooplah said about Ty Segall, check out his projects with Mikal Cronin and a project called Fuzz, which is awesome. Rather than post a bunch of Youtube links, here's a link to a modern psych playlist I maintain on Spotify, which would include the same recommendations and more: http://open.spotify.com/user/faktory4/playlist/07ESjQ7h9SFrPGm7v8WfQl That may give you a good jumping off point. me your dad fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Jul 10, 2014 |

I'm a little late to this, but if you dig psych that's on the lo-fi/garage-y side, The Mirrors' "A Green Dream" LP (2001) is really good. The only problem is that it's extremely difficult to find. A couple of the songs are on YouTube, but only a couple (and they're not the very best songs from the album, IMHO, although they are good).

So I really dig this type of pop sound that seems largely, but not exclusively, tied to Japan. Really heavily produced and feels closely linked to sound design: https://vimeo.com/8837024 http://boen.bandcamp.com/track/every-day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5w9fOAG5Xz8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAwR6w2TgxY Is there a name for this type of music that's a more concise description than "pop" or "electronica"?

You mentioned Japan so I'm sure you have heard of Nujabes, but on the outside chance you haven't https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuJ6Sx1an7Q As for pogo I'm not sure of his/her genre because they make all their music by remixing soundclips from whatever film/show the song is about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6j0gev29MA

This is a bit of a weird one - I'm looking for songs that are similar tonally and sonically to Leonard Cohen's The Partisan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG4ndbhOkpI Acoustic, folksy, similar tempo, somber mood, maybe vaguely revolutionary.

Those are the correct terms yeah. Most of it has somewhat higher pitched vocals then your examples but you can try the Sushi 3003 compilation and artists like Takako Minekawa, Hazel Nuts Chocolate, Pine*AM, 5th Garden and of course Cornelius

Can anyone point me to some harder, ideally no wave influenced (Contortions mostly), dance-punk acts like !!!'s first single? Their later stuff is too light and poppy for what I'm looking for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrvokWnMtzk Other bands I'm into with a similar style: Measles Mumps Rubella, Brainiac, Liars' first album. DFA 1979 is okay but I wish they were a fuller band.

Didn't know about The Pop Group and a couple artists on those comps, so I'll have to check them out. As much as I like this era and genre, the production from the time was often so Martin Hannett-esque space that the groove would get lost in the reverb. You know anything that matches the sober rawness of No New York, production wise? Can be any post-punk, doesn't have to be dancey. Misc fucked around with this message at 21:58 on Nov 24, 2017 |

Another one that pops into my head: Theoretical Girls, for whom Glenn Branca played guitar, IIRC. They're on YouTube, and pretty raw, I suppose.

Confession: I don't know all that much about electronic music, either. But the way in which that song combines dance music and rapping reminds me a bit of The Streets (aka Mike Skinner). Here's a sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4iA_w81MpU I have no idea whether this has anything to do with what you're looking for, but The Streets are innovative and critically acclaimed, so I'd recommend them regardless. "Original Pirate Material" and "A Grand Don't Come for Free" are both superb albums; there's a drop-off in quality after those LPs, though, IMHO.

I actually forgot about The Streets - remember hearing them but never getting too deep. Thanks for the reminder! What I really want to know is if there is a style of EDM (is that right?) with a thick slow bassline coupled with GI Joe laser-gun sounds and some 'woop woop woops' thrown in. EDIT: This song is like what I am looking for more of, no woops though. Bassjackers & Kenneth G - Rampage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XfVsu-av14 EDIT 2: Big Room is, I think, what I was looking for. bigperm fucked around with this message at 20:03 on Jul 20, 2014 |
