more bands i dont know! can you tell im pretty new to black metal? lol
Well, both Behold... The Arctopus and Gorguts are technical Death Metal, so if you've only been listening to black metal, it's kinda not surprising you haven't heard of them. Gorguts is really good though, so you should definitely check them out, especially the album Colored Sands. Behold... The Arctopus is kinda hit or miss for me. I liked Horrorscension, but was meh on Skullgrid.
ALSO I may well be the only person here who cares but someone working on Dre's new album (which, reminder, premieres tomorrow on Apple Radio) confirmed that there will be a (major spoilers, yes that's possible for an album) Eazy E verse.
Shabazz Palaces - Black Up (hip-hop) Vernon Reid - Mistaken Identity (Rock/Hip-Hop/Jazz-fusion) Can - Future Days (Krautrock) Brian Eno - Another Green World (ambient) Brian Eno - Discreet Music (ambient) Brian Eno - Ambient 1: Music for Airports (ambient)

I've heard most of these but I will check out the Can and Vernon Reid records.

I'm gonna have to buy Songs in the Key of Price when it comes out.
Sean P was one of those rappers I am aware of the influence of but he's always kinda been on the edge of my vision as a rap fan and ended up putting off checking his stuff out.
I have no real reason to when I think about it logically but I kinda feel like a shithead for that.
I do like his verse on "We Don't Fucking Care" by Onyx. A song that also features three great verses from, well, Onyx, and also A$AP Ferg.
Price has this sort of stop-start delivery where he puts odd pauses in his lines. It makes them less technically impressive than some of his peers but it makes them stick in your head better too.
i am listening to it now and it's not a totally inept description: it's kinda like neurosis structurally, with a drum machine and Isis-y riffs and the clean vocals actually do kinda remind me of front 242
sunn wolf said:@Crystal re birdsong: Messiaen differs from what youre talking about before in that instead of using actual recordings it's more like an orchestral interpretation of birdsong. you might still be into that, and by all means give something like 'Oiseaux exotiques' a listen, but it sounds to me like you're more looking for music that incorporates field recordings. there's a fair amount of that out there. 'El Tren Fantasma' is one of those and im backing naney in calling it a rly fucking fantastic album that is worth your time
something perhaps a little less obviously connected is i'd recommend Akira kosemura's album 'Polaroid Piano'. i know you like solo piano stuff and this is a piano album, but it's a really close-in recording and you can hear all the creaks and clunks of the piano as well as some background noise and it's a really warm, natural sound
Yeah,I'm definitely looking more at music which uses field recordings. Never been opposed to experimental or "avant-garde" music either, albeit not to the degree of familiarity with them that others have (which is to say none!). Also looking into biomusic and musique concrete since they seem applicable enough.
El Tren Fantasma: Haven't gotten to yet.
Akira Kosemura's Polaroid Piano: I've listened to this a few times and have found it up my alley.
Messiaen's Oiseaux exotiques: Not what I was looking for, bun a fun listen nonetheless. I think I'll be checking out more of his works in the future.
Unrelated to this, SpruceZeus linked me this awhile back, which I thought was pretty neat. I've only listened to Tertia by them but am working through their music. Listened to it again just recently and found that it was just as engaging as before, and is probably the type of post-rock vibe I'm most fond of. Unsurprisingly, "The Raven" is still the standout for me, although "Ghosts of the Garden City" and "Concrescence" are honorable mentions. My feelings on "rock" and "post-rock" are still relatively murky at best, since at most I know a few definite likes and dislikes.
RE hip hop i would like to also heartily recommend Fear of a Black Tangent. complaint raps at their finest
and also to try to trick people into listening to lorn there's the verse in this pile-o-unrelated-music-bits that he released. i dunno who the MC is, though it isn't Lorn, ofc.
Comments
(I'm neutral on the band themselves, though.)
e: actually since youre nameless i should call you not-sam :v
on his radio show yesterday he said Detox was finished but he ended up not liking it.
(Jane certainly knows, but for those who don't, Dr. Dre was the chief producer behind Kendrick Lamar's albums.)
I seem to have come full circle on them
ok its because of the proms but still wth
