There's a song that NPR plays as like an interlude around Milwaukee that's some kind of uptempo flute instrumental song and I have absolutely no idea what it is. I don't know what program it plays during, but I've heard it dozens of times. Sorry if this is really vague, but it's been annoying me. It might also be canadian public radio, some of their programs are syndicated by the local NPR.

It was a punk-rock song and the video consisted of the band playing in some dark woods, and throughout the video they all got dragged off one by one. Was it 4ft Fingers - Last Man Standing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlNb2mHE-8k&feature=youtube_gdata_player Man, I used to LOVE that channel.

Nilbog Resident posted:Haha, no dice but you've definitely nailed the vibe. Kind of sounds like this song by Gary Hoey but maybe not. Could be any number of songs by guys like Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, etc. Pretty much every song these guys did were instrumentals and occasionally they got some radio play.

OK, here's the next one no one will ever get... I was in a cafe today and this album was playing that had subdued female vocals and sort of repetitive krautrock percussion. One track in particular had quite a high, theremin-like melody playing in it. It was creepy and ethereal and minimal. I reckon it came out sometime in the last 5-10 years, from the sound of it. (edit: it wasn't Portishead, in case it sounds like it from the description) The person behind the counter said it was Husky Rescue, but nothing I can find by Husky Rescue really sounds it. I think they may have misunderstood my question because by that point a different album was playing (I did say "band before this one" but maybe they misheard). Is there some Husky Rescue album that sounds like what I'm describing, and can anyone guess at what other artist it could have been? Popcorn fucked around with this message at 01:09 on Feb 10, 2012 |

That's not it. Prepare to die! The vocals had lyrics (didn't catch any) and it was less ambient and more 'song'-like.

Possibly the most difficult song: There's a song that was everywhere when I was a little kid (circa 1991, in Australia). It had no lyrics, the singer would just make 'mmm' sounds to an obnoxious, annoying tune. It's not 'Mmm mmm mmm mmm' by the Crash Test Dummies, it literally had no lyrics besides 'mmm'. I've always been curious about it but is impossible to search for. Anyone?

Are there any surviving links from the album ARC? I have a couple of songs, they were created by SA and the creation dates on the files bring me to around the beginning of August, 2006. It was some kind of electronic music. A search through the archives around that time didn't turn anything up. I think I got it from an article or link from the front page. E: Found a link on the main page, http://www.centralarc.com/ but using the wayback machine it looks like the last time this was what I was looking for was July 2009. Strange.

A friend played me a cd in 2007 or 2008 with a rap song on it that I've been looking for ever since. The whole time this guy is telling a story about trying to make his way into a gang and the main part is remember is when he's "forced" to rape a girl as she's leaving the store and it turns out to be his mom. Please help me find this hosed up song. Thanks!

There's a song I used to dance to when I was a little kid. All I can remember is one line: 'your inside's out and your outside's in'. Whenever I heard that line I would run around the house pretending to be a skeleton. It was my Dad's music, so probably a 70s group. It had maybe 3 or 4 male vocalists. It's not Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except for Me and My Monkey, which matches the above but sounds nothing like the song I'm thinking of. Unless there's a cover that differs substantially from the Beatles version?

Paperhouse posted:Immortal Technique - Dance With The Devil I was working day shift in a pizza joint in college, the guy I worked with (he held down the store while I drove pies around town) played eight zillion tons of Immortal Technique and a bunch of equally obnoxious technical death metal (you know the kind, the sort where it's nothing but blastbeats and gravity rolls), and Dance With The Devil made me seriously uncomfortable. It still does. And yet I was the one who got yelled at by the boss for my music choices for having the DKs on during lunch rush. (because, he said, the customers might not get the point of stuff like Kill The Poor and think we're actively advocating murder) Ah well.

In the film "24 Hour Party People" there's a song while (I think) Joy Division is on stage where the chorus is somnething akin to "the in, the outs, the in, the outs" and I can't seem to find the song in question. Any guesses as to what it could be?

A Tribe Called Quest's "The Pressure" uses the same horn sample but I think most of that song's instrumentals is made from their earlier works and a quick sampling doesn't get me any love. For what it's worth it sounds very Tribe-like, or maybe a little like Public Enemy's Bomb Squad production team.

Ok, so placing it in The Pressure was enough to identify the horn sample as being lifted from the intro to Funkadelic - Get Off Your rear end And Jam Going back through and looking at all the tracks that sampled that track Which lead me to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3UZyqmxFBA Thanks!

Im trying to remember a song but all I can remember about it is from the music video. It had two guys sitting and their girlfriends playing tennis. The winner's boyfriend would get the other guys' girlfriend for a night. Anyways at the end three of them go off and the two girls lock the guy out of the house. Not much to go on, but anyone have any thoughts? For some reason I have it in my head that its by someone called Gorillaz or something but for the life of me cannot find it. Thanks

I heard this song on OPB music, so it might be a portland band. The part I heard was pretty loud and hard-hitting, with a howling indie-rock voice. "I don't give a gently caress if I can't sing" kinda style. With neutral-milk-hotel-like horns. The lyrics for the chorus went something like "I'd follow you into the woods, yeah you know I would. I'd follow into the sea, yeah you know me."

I'm trying to identify a song with a very Spaghetti-Western feel, and it has a female vocalist singing "ahs" in a style that I can best describe as "whistly". There are also church bells and MAYBE an eagle scream in the song.

This is a slightly backwards one... the chorus of Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye reminds me heavily of an old song from the 70s or 80s. I keep thinking Peter Gabriel, but I can't place it. Does anyone else get deja vu? edit: it's not a general thing, it's the chord change/melody specifically. Popcorn fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Feb 21, 2012 |
