luvdunhill Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 The second of the Kaneko-Esoteric series, also with dual mic recordings. Probably the best recorded instrumental music I have heard in a while, assuming of course you like the material 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadtonowhere08 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) I have been playing Steven Wilson's Hand. Cannot. Erase. nonstop for the last 3 weeks. The album was inspired by the case of Joyce Carol Vincent: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joyce_Vincent I have concluded that this is the best album he has ever been a part of. Almost everything he does has some form of deeper meaning, but this really hits home and comes of as especially sincere. The recent concert only underscores this. I thought I would never say this, but this takes over Opeth's Damnation as the most beautiful album I have ever heard. This is the definition of "so depressing it's gorgeous". So good that I bought the deluxe insane version from ebay. Absolute masterpiece. I cannot praise this album enough.

I'm not sure I have come quite to that same conclusion (needs more time), but honestly, I can't think of anything else (that he was involved with that's better). It's more of-a-whole than even The Incident. I didn't realize there were smaller stories within the larger story until I saw the concert (and especially the video for "Routine"), but I still think the transitions (in story matter) are so smooth (and thematically consistent -- I.E. depressing as hell) as to be virtually unnoticeable. And yet I still find tracks like "Happy Returns" sublimely restorative and transcendent. And that riff in "Ancestral" just fucking rocks my world.

Dusty Chalk Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 David Grissom -- bluesy rock'n'roll, pretty straightforward -- any track could be used as a PRS tone exhibition. Wish the songwriting was a little stronger -- gets a little samey for my tastes. I'm sure people who appreciated the genre more would appreciate his music more. It's certainly enjoyable enough to listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Patrick Watson -- Love Songs For Robots Mostest favorite album this year so far. This is quite fab, and great late night music. I particularly like Bollywood and Know that You Know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Listened to Steve Joliffe's tribute to Edgar Froese, "Magical" (a single, ~hour long track of improvised electronica) -- fairly excellent. Now bingeing on Tangerine Dream (mostly Virgin and Private Music eras). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
