HenryJLittlefinger posted:Thanks everyone for the many good suggestions. Karate, early White Stripes, some Arctic Monkeys, and Superchunk are the closest to the sound I'm looking for so far. It sounds like you might be good with suggestions, but since you mentioned you still wanted harder stuff and liked Superchunk, I was thinking maybe Wipers, Hum, Archers of Loaf, the Constantines, the Watchmen, or Jawbox (someone mentioned Jawbreaker before, and I feel like that's a little closer to Superchunk, but Jawbox goes harder in my opinion). Not sure if some of those will skew too indie for you, but some more things to try if you want! deep dish peat moss posted:I have a playlist full of music to listen to on nighttime walks and it needs fresh blood. I don't really care what genre and I don't know how exactly to describe what I'm looking for but some albums just sound like nighttime albums, you know? Lo-fi, moody, ethereal, nighttime music. Some examples of artists on the playlist now are Team Sleep, Salem, Purity Ring, Flight Facilities, The Radio Dept., Fujiya & Miyagi, Quelle Chris, Glass Candy, Milo and Boards of Canada. Hit me, goons I really like M83 for nighttime walks. Other things that might fit are Beak>, Kruder & Dorfmeister, LCD Soundsystem, Blanck Mass, Destruments, Stereolab, and Castlebeat.

Jeremor posted:Can I get some recommendations for getting into Jungle? I just want to understand it better there are some albums which i will cover below, but as a dance genre, jungle was designed to be heard on the dance floor mixed by competent DJs and a charismatic MC toasting on top. if you really get into this genre and become a serious head, you'll enjoy listening to a 12" straight through, but for now it's best to listen in the context they were meant for. to that end, you gotta look up mixtapes (look up "tape packs") from some of the major names. some off the top of my head: andy c, dj rap, kenny ken, peshay (yes, the youtube algorithm mix guy), LTJ bukem, ray keith https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ESt5k-jvPU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgNfUWDRUIY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJxdVpgl3Rs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BgYN9Ym1Wo look up compilation mixes from the big labels -- Moving Shadow, Metalheadz, Goodlooking, Suburban Base, Ram, Reinforced. this one below is a 10 year retrospective moving shadow put out in 2000 which looks like it goes in chronological order: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASbvf_Vi3VY landmark, early album A Guy Called Gerald - 28 Gun Bad Boy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TExx5RdWkLk Goldie - Timeless. Considered the moment when Jungle became "Drum & Bass" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhV9VbxV3Rw Reprazent, a live d&b supergroup of djs, producers, and musicians from bristol who won the mercury prize with their album New Forms. this live performance is a highlight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9cujWIcFIw&t=340s this will sound patronizing, but jungle hits vol 1, 2 & 3 covers the big ragga tunes. ragga jungle is a subgenre that leans into its reggae/dancehall roots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=He4BimHRghw lastly, a lot of the links are busted now, but the phiz jungle thread was a treasure trove for like 15 years before this stuff became popular again: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3344455

Jeremor posted:Can I get some recommendations for getting into Jungle? I just want to understand it better Along with the good advice of Misc, I'll toot my own horn, but if you have archives (is that still a thing?) then my guides on the ol' UK Bass thread goes into it a bit. The two bits I had on Jungle are here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3420553&pagenumber=5#post393472443 https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3420553&pagenumber=10#post394283093 But certainly the previous hardcore stuff from my guide is worth delving into to set the scene. I do keep promising one of these days I'll re-upload somewhere else. Also one I used to always say to look at as it's a brilliant contemporary doc on the proper start of the Jungle scene, but A London Something documentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jd2Lr7C0nc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCXt62rfm18 Misc posted:landmark, early album A Guy Called Gerald - 28 Gun Bad Boy Worth pointing out that while this album is fantastic, it follows what a lot of dance music albums has is it's more a compilation of stuff. Like Misc says it's all (or was anyway) about the 12", the dubplate etc etc. The stuff off 28 Gun Bad Boy was all off various EPs that Gerald had put out on his own Juice Box records (one of the best, most far out Jungle labels) as well as even earlier stuff that floated out from his time on Columbia that they couldn't get their head around. Way, way ahead of the game for '91 releases those are. They're also what caused him to be dropped too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXCtZLwj4FQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kbv2b5Nrgk Also the LP version of the album is worthwhile for probably what must be one of the last example of the megamix kind of thing you used to get sometimes on some House compilations etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgiNBK9UbP0

I want more stuff like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78W8fsaF1GM Specifically the very languid, cool sound. Doesn't have to have guitar, but thr guitar part in this is really nice. Plaid never put out another song like this that I've heard. Something about it doesn't fit with the other downtempo, chill, acid jazz, lounge, whatever else in the genre that I'm familiar with.

Megabound posted:I want a recommendation as well, Weedeater haven't released an album in a decade but I want more Weedeater. The new Bongripper is a bit slower and sludgier than that, but it's in the ballpark. Also, you might like The Midnight Ghost Train. Cold Was The Ground is their best album in my opinion, closely followed by Buffalo. They're a little less sludgy but equally fuzzy and heavy on the low end.

Seconding Buzzoven/Bongzilla both scratch the Weedeater itch You might like Eyehategod too if you want a lil bit of hardcore mixed, not the same as Weedeater but i find fans of one often enjoy the other Bongripper if you want it lower and slower (and instrumental) Scissorfight isnt as heavy as Weedeater but does that kinda sludge/doom sound with a tiny lil dose of Southern rock mixed in

Megabound posted:Khruangbin hit that vibe for me, I really like this live set Khruangbin just doesn't quite do it for me. I keep coming back to them because they're so adjacent to stuff I like that I feel like I'm supposed to be into them. I get what they're doing and I generally like the vibe but something just doesn't hook me. I think they're too trebly. The elements of that Plaid track I really like are the just barely there beat, clean guitar on the neck pickup with the highs turned down, and general ethereal floatiness. Thanks though!
