What are some good albums to check out if I’m looking for more downbeat electronic chill music like Portishead’s Dummy or Air’s Moon Safari?

Sometimes I put on the lofi beats YouTube channel to scratch this itch, and it does a good enough job but the songs are missing some unidentifiable 90’s flavor to them

The other big one from that period would be DJ Shadow's Entroducing as well.

If you're willing to go slightly into the next decade FourTet's "Rounds" might be worth a listen.

Big Calm by Morcheeba is in my recollections from that era. Definitely more vocal driven: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m651cvR3nNQE47UMe_1oQkYuKbkLW6kN8

I need more music that I could play during an orgy. Similar in theme to that sort of hedonistic new age of Enigma (Principles of Lust, TNT for the Brain, Sadeness of course, but not like.. Return To Innocence), though sacrilege isn’t strictly required.

To clarify, the more passionate, driven songs, not “super chill lofi ambient elevator music” and definitely not the “major key birth and renewal”

This particularly rapid💨 unintelligible 😖patter💁 isn't generally heard🧏‍♂️, and if it is🤔, it doesn't matter💁.


I'm looking for a sound like ...

The problem is that I exclusively listen to music on YouTube, and I don't trust their algorithm one bent nickel. Pandora is useless unless I re-listen to everything I've listened to in the last year, last.fm can't import from YouTube, and Discogs wants me to note the albums, which in some cases I don't even know because they're uploads of TV shows. If anybody knows a way to export your YouTube playlist, I'm all ears.

I lived in the South for ten years, and I thought I hated country. Turns out I hate the current Nashville sound, which is different. I tripped over outlaw country a week or so ago, and I wondered how I'd missed out for so long. So: Waylon, Willie, Johnny, Kris, Nanci Griffith, Orville Peck, Nashville Skyline, some Merle Haggard, Hank Williams. I think of CSNY and Linda Ronstadt as being similar in style, but I've been wrong before. I grew up listening to '60s and later '70s folk.

What I think I see in common is lower-production, voice-forward, singer-songwriters. There may be continuities I'm missing because I don't know the terms. I don't like the "patriotic" stuff that is currently in vogue.

Who (especially if currently recording) would you recommend in that vein? Who else comes to mind?

I think you’re probably right to question calling CSNY outlaw country.

So he’s dead, but you’d like Jerry Jeff Walker.

Gillian Welch is not dead, but she might be retired. She and her partner Dave Rawlings make great folk/Americana music and run a record studio in Nashville. They have 5 records under her name and 3 under Dave’s name and one under both. All worth listening to. Do Time The Revelator first. Hopefully they’re not retired.

You mentioned Nashville Skyline, so Bob Dylan’s not retired yet, but he might be after next year. On tour, when he’s done he’s done, so fair warning. There was a bootleg series called “Travelin Thru” that documents his late-60s country period including the full duets with Johnny Cash and outtakes from John Wesley Harding and NS. Planet Waves from 1970 has a little country feel in some songs, you might like that. And since you want working artists, his most recent album was Rough and Rowdy Ways in 2020, and it’s a masterpiece.

I'm currently exploring alt-country myself, and there's some good recommendations up thread when I asked about it, but in terms of currently recording/touring Lydia Loveless and MJ Lenderman are really floating my boat. They're definitely a bit more electric, but definitely not part of that overproduced pop-country thing.

To understand what happened at the diner, we use Mr. Papaya. This is upsetting because he is the friendliest of fruits.
Looking for more stuff in a similar vein to I Monster's Neveroddoreven (specifically the original release), The Sound Defects' The Iron Horse, DJ Shadow's Endtroducing..., Black Moth Super Rainbow's Dandelion Gum, Miracle Musical's Hawaii Part II.

I know it mostly falls under trip-hop, synth-pop, and psych rock, but I'm looking for that "forbidden transmission from another dimension" vibe, if that makes any sense.
