Turned out from my ratings thread that a lot of you felt you needed musical guidance. Well I'm going to post music of many different genres on this thread and you can decide what you want to pursue and what you wish to stay ignorant to. Also, I guess we might be able to get some discussion of some sorts. Maybe. You're welcome in advance.

Link number 1 is from what I think is one of the albums of the year.

Brilliant album. 'Animals' and 'Apologetic Shoulder Blades' are my faves. Had the album on repeat for a week.

All so far have their merits, take a good few listens to get into them though.

Great thread.

Kold · 30-08-2010 01:47PM

I think this has to be one of the nicest hip hop albums in the last few years. Exile's beats are gorgeously rich. Blu sounds like an early Common.

There's a slight feel of Kanye's The College Dropout without the unbearable arrogance.

Thread fails (for me) so far, but keep it up, great idea

Is this your scabby attempt at humour OP?

Colm! · 31-08-2010 07:21PM

Hmm. Originally I thought that this'd be some "lol my taste is better than yours" elitist thread, but I just listened to Blu & Exile there (I am trying to give hip-hop a chance as I don't listen to a lot of it) and I quite like it. I'll get around to checking out the other posts now.

lordgoat · 01-09-2010 10:04AM

That Blu and Exile album is top drawer.

Any recommendations for some killer afrobeat rhythms, cosmic jazz modes and soulful thump? :pac:

0_0 ..... .... No sir I surrily do not.

What I do have today is a song by Have a Nice Life. It's called Bloodhail. I think it's pretty good but the album could have been trimmed down. Has a nice shoegazy feel.

I was going through this thread and came across this gem . Looks like a thread that has great potential. I think this one deserves to be resurrected some great tunes here. cmon kold

Kold · 23-09-2010 07:17PM

Sorry, I've been indulging my alcoholism a lot and as such have been neglecting my duties.

Ben Frost is the recent king of experimental ambient. This most likely won't appeal to many of you as it really needs to be listened to on some decent speakers/phones.

I feel I need to get some folky stuff into this thread. If just to make a horrible clash with the above link. Have some Andrew Jackson Jihad. They're fun.

Keep up the good work.

I'm pretty sure this is a legit download.

It's a hip hop instrumental album that is based on music from Bjork. Forgot I had it and played it in the studio today. Good sh*t.

New Brian Eno record coming out on Warp. Interesting track, lots of energy. Also, trolls killed discussion or am I just not posting interesting ****?

Sharkey 10 · 01-10-2010 03:35PM

I already said thank you but I'm going to say it again - Blu & Exile are fúckin fantastic to listen to - their album and another band - The Boxer Rebellion have gotten me through the past few weeks of work

Like the Dub FX stuff Kold. Didn't make much of his studio album. The live youtube vids are insane though.
The Sax in this is sooo good.

Yeah the album definitely loses something but it's still worth a couple of listens. You play sax don't you?

This wasn't on youtube a few months ago so I uploaded it myself but then mine was taken down, dunno why, wasn't arsed reading up on it either because someone else has uploaded it since.

The emcee is Waddy, aka Ninja from Die Antwoord. This album is pretty cracking really, was hard to find when I went looking for it but I'm glad I did.
