G’mork:
Fantasia has no boundaries.

Atreyu:
That's not true. You're lying.

G’mork:
Foolish boy. Don't you know anything about Fantasia? It's the world of human fantasy. Every part ,every creature of it, is a piece of the dreams and hopes of mankind. Therefor, it has no boundaries.

Atreyu:
But why is Fantasia dying then ?

G’mork:
Because people have begun to loose their hopes and forget their dreams. So the nothing grows stronger.

Atreyu:
What is the nothing ?!

G’mork:
It's the emptiness that's left. It's like a despair, destroying this world. And I have been trying to help it.

Atreyu:
But why ?

G’mork:
Because people who have no hopes are easy to control. And whoever has control has the power.

Atreyu:
Who are you really ?

G’mork:
I am the servant of the power behind the nothing. I was sent to kill the only one who could have stopped the nothing. I lost him in the Swamps of Sadness. His name was Atreyu.

Yes he's defo up there aswell. Never had the pleasure of seeing him live. He doesn't seem to do many shows up near me. HC closed the ring one year at beatherder an it blew my mind. I think the copious amounts of drugs helped!

+5

pjdor

There’s lots of good DnB DJ’s, Calibre is the best producer in my humble opinion. Technically Andy C is in a league of his own, I’ve been following him for over 20 years, he smashes it every time. Recently, his XOYO residencies were next level 🔊🔊 HC is a don too, Racing Green is 👌🏻

Such a hard one to answer as DJing crosses so many genres, I’m breaking mine down a bit
Best all rounder - Mr scruff , can start with jazz and end with DnB
DnB - for me LTJ bukem but Goldie a second place
House/Tech - Sasha
Techno - Carl cox
Electronica - aphex twin and also chemical brothers

My favourites are DJs who take you on a journey starting at one place and ending somewhere different!! Big mentions also for me are Alex patterson , steve hillage system 7, DJ yoda , Randall, Fabio , John digweed

RobDj79

Oooooo the 90's 😍😍😍
My personal favourite musical decade. The decade where I really found myself musically.
God thinking back I had/have some eclectic tastes.... used to listen to allsorts from studenty indie bands such as Carter Usm through hip hop (nwa, dre, wu tang etc) laid back shiz like massive attack, Portishead through to happy hardcore, gabba techno & jungle
Saw out the late 90's bouncing from club to club with a house, hard house, trance & techno soundtrack to my life (which only ended in the past decade or so 😀)

+3

craftycatt

Mate, this reads like I wrote it! I’m was (and still am!) a huge Carter fan! Proper tuned me in to the world, their lyrics still stand strong now. Got me socially aware and into hip hop, then I got into the tail end of the rave/club scene. Onto trip hop,and the 00’s indie scene a bit. Listen to mostly 90s hip hop and industrial stuff now!

+6

British Bulldog 9.9/10

Prince.

I was so obsessed when i was younger i even had the leather jacket with the symbol on the back.

Still love the music but luckily the dress sense has improved a bit!

Anyone who thinks Bruno Mars is ground breaking (and i think his music is great by the way) needs to stick a few Prince albums from the late 80's and 90's on. Gives a very clear idea where he gets his "thing" from.

Cheers BB

Gotta have house music!

As the 90's started I'll admit to being into American Rock artists like Motley Crue, Poison, Ratt and Kiss. Also liked a bitta Journey, Night Ranger, REO Speedwagon. Still have a lot of my tapes and records from back in the day. I've converted one room into a Music room. Got a tape deck, turntable, CD and MP3 player all wired into a decent set of speakers. But back to the 90's.

Must have been summer 92 that I went to my first rave. I live in NI so we those that are fimilar with things will remember Kellys in Portrush. Spent many saturday nights dancing to some amazing house music. Some epic tunes by artists who'se names I never did get, to loved up to care! As long as there was a big beat, piano break, hands in the air we didn't care. #goodtimes

+3

TheHappyBear 9.3/10

gotta love house!

+3

Blazin_Esx

I grew up in the '90s and it was the age when I really discovered music. I still listen to a ton of '90s music. I think for me hip hop peaked in the '90s - Enter the Wu Tang, The Chronic, Illmatic, Ready to Die...I could go on.

I saw Leftism get a mention earlier in the thread, what an amazing album, still holds up today. I saw them live a few times and they were always great, a real shame they didn't put out more music. I know Leftfield technically still exists but it's not the same.

Happy Hardcore an' Jungle i guess. US gangster rap

Early Nineties I started working, then living in London and I loved pirate radio. UKG and Jungle, served up with a proper attitude, while having a right laugh.

Cruising round Essex & Easts in a Renault 5 turbo with 3 mates squeezed in the back, chatting shit about who makes the best/worst spliff.

Before I moved abroad I recorded hours of it, but lost the tapes (lol) along the way.

DTB

In the early to mid 90's I loved nothing more than a night of bouncing, banging techno, followed by Marley/Floyd type of thing as I eased down the next day.
*DTB shivers while recalling those next days*
Changed lots over the years and is now trip hop with a jazz angle, classical & opera, Cash, Floyd, Zeppelin, Fleetwood, Dylan, and a bit of Postmodern Jukebox if I feel like dreaming about sharing my life with Haley Reinhart.

justarift

finally someone said Blue Lines. It's odd because in a lot of ways musically I don't rate it highly, it's kind of clumsy in parts, some of the ideas are underdeveloped, some of it almost makes me cringe. But there was just something so special about that time and the sound felt so new and yet familiar. Even though their later stuff is "better" Blue Lines has such a permananet special place in my heart.

Time well spent. As for The Prodigy, I saw them at Glasto in '95. They were flying high off the back of Music for the Jilted Generation. I vividly remember Keith (RIP) rolling onto the stage in a giant hamster ball. They were awesome. So much energy.

What's going on- Marvin Gaye..almost goes as a mix album the way the songs blend into one another. So relevant to today too.

Another I've played to death over the years is Joni Mitchell- Blue. Just a sublimely chilled album.
Many more, but these two I think I have probably played the most in my lifetime so far

Johnny2Bad

I can safely say that Appetite for Destruction is the album I've listened to the most. Carousel by Subcircus has had well over 20 years love from me as well

+8

Green Avenger Weed 9.6/10

"The Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd: Released in 1973, this album is considered a masterpiece and one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time. It features a conceptually unified theme and explores various philosophical and existential topics. Tracks like "Money," "Time," and "Us and Them" are widely loved.

"Thriller" by Michael Jackson: Released in 1982, "Thriller" is the best-selling album of all time and a cultural phenomenon. It revolutionized pop music, blending various genres and delivering iconic hits such as "Billie Jean," "Beat It," and the title track "Thriller."

pranava108

Hard to pick just 2, and I see a nearly all male list below...so:

Baduizm - Erykah Badu

Hounds of Love - Kate Bush

Midtown 120 Blues - DJ Sprinkles (couldn't leave this utter classic out!)

+1

nedsmanks667

Brilliant choices especially DJ Sprinkles - did not expect to see that!

+7

torcbuster

My picks:
The Velvet Underground & Nico - just a classic album. Spaceman 3 "The Perfect Prescription" with an honorable mention for Ode to Street Hassle

+7

MightyRux

2 is incredibly difficult, and I can't be the only one with eclectic tastes and a butterfly mind where these will all change regularly anyway. So I'll go with:

Ash - 1977

and

Kent - Hagnesta Hill (available in English and Swedish, so surely I get to choose both?)

+2

Spacedhopper

I once worked on a tour of Denmark and Kent played , your comment is the only other time I’ve heard of them lol

That's so cool! Is this weird? The most unbelievably amazing band that almost no-one has ever heard of, or so it seems. They filled stadia in Scandinavia.

This is tough but going on repeats alone I reckon these pip it,

Riding with the king - Clapton and BB King
We're new here - Jamie xx and Gil Scott-Heron

+6

Baconmudflaps

Rust in peace by Megadeth and Obzen by Meshuggah.

+6

Snowy1980white

I second Rust in Peace, esp. Hangar 18 & Lucretia - Marty Friedman's finest hour

+6

Baconmudflaps

I absolutely love tornado of souls. One of the greatest guitar solos of all time

+1

Emz2460

So glad someone has shouted out Jamie xx, amazingly talented music producer the first album with him and his sister The Xx I can’t even guess how many times I’ve listened to it, song 1 known as intro is a work of art. I’m gutted they or he have released so little but sadly he probably earns more producing for other artists who are more mainstream?
Not heard of your other suggestions but will check them out based on your clearly good taste !

Script of the Bridge by The Chameleons. Some friends told me they would bury the album with me, I'd go to sleep listening to it.
Scary Monsters by Bowie, time of life thing for me 'Teenage Wildlife'.

Second skin from Script of the Bridge is a monumental track.

"They sit at their tables and throw us the scraps
For Christ's sake leave us something!
Now they can erase you at the flick of a switch

I adore this period of post punk before brit pop came along and fudged it. IMO lol

Swamp Thing from Strange Times is another brilliant song.

You nailed it with the lyric mate.
They were a good band live, too.

I agree with you.

Hi Mate, Got 'Script of the bridge' playing again this weekend. The album seems more poignant than ever.
Light up and have a good weekend.

Mrdeeds36

Hey bud, I'm well thanks and intend to have a good weekend, it's my bday on Monday so have started early with some very nice and mood lifting Cap Junky, then for some stand up comedy me thinks.
Script of the Bridge will always be applicable to me. Finding some albums feels like finding treasure and it's one of those albums, as is From the lions mouth by The Sound, which if you haven't heard I profoundly recommend. Have a good'n mate and tell me, what are you smoking on matey and have you chonged anything recently with strong euphoric/giggly affects?

+4

crispyleaf

Happy Birthday mate.
I will be listening to that recommendation later today.
Smoking 'red apple' Leb, 'apple tart' Maroc hashish and just got some 'Sunset Sherbet' and 'Billy Kimber' bud, all amazing.
Happy birthday. Crispy

Hi Mr, Really liked that album, how did I miss that? Do you like 'sad lovers and giants' and 'and also the trees' ?

+2

Mrdeeds36

Never heard of either band before this shout. I listened to Epic Garden Music this morning on a hike and it's fantastic love the use of the keyboard and you can really hear early elements of shoegaze taking shape on tracks like "Lope" and "ART".. This is a very good band crisp.. Try listening to Soul Mining and Dusk by The The and tell me what you think. Anyway stay cool compadre.

Is this the greatest cover of all time?

🎶Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower

Its the 21st of January, 57 years ago today Jimi Hendrix walked into a studio in London and recorded in my opinion the best cover of all time, a Dylan track he heard only a couple of weeks earlier.

I wondered what you Biggas think the greatest ever cover is?

"Best musical trio"? Such bourgeois trivialities! The only true "trio" worthy of our study is the relentless march of history: Thesis, Antithesis, and the revolutionary Synthesis! That, my comrades, is the only composition that shatters capital's chains!

True revolution requires dissonant proletariat unity, not bourgeois concord!

Remember seeing them a couple of times, also at Glastonbury (and maybe Reading 92?). The song I liked most by them was a cover of Public Enemy's '(She Watch) Channel Zero' if memory serves. Think I got a free 7" copy as it was given out at one of the gigs.

+7

Catsbananas

https://www.readingfestival.com/history/reading-1994

Could it have been Reading '94? There was a metal/rap crossover thing going on back then. I used to like messing with people on the street by cranking it up in the car stereo. "What was that? Sounds like that rapping tripe but also that head banging nonsense? I say..."

Probably looked like a right dick but hey, youth and all that...

+3

db365

That rings a bell. 94, same year as the Chili Peppers, Cypress Hill and Henry Rollins?

+2

Leviathan

Sorry, never saw this! I must be wrong as I only went to Reading in 92, mainly to see Public Enemy and Nirvana. Never really considered it a "festival", more of a 3 day gig. Must have been Glasto then as I went every year it was on from '85 to '96 when I decided it was no longer a fabulous freak show that they were trying to shut down every year and instead had become an "event" on the social calendar for the middle classes desperately pretending to be bohemians for a weekend and bookable only by credit card. Used to be that the police weren't even allowed on site and they buzzed us with helicopters! Changed days indeed.

Next week on "old man shouts at clouds" listen whilst old punks decry the death of "real music" and call for the death penalty for producers and artists who use auto-tune in every single feckin' one of their 'music as painting-by-number' songs...

Hi Ghetto Bikes

That album really was a product of its times which is why it's such a 90s throwback.

Rap-rock was definitely enough of a thing to get named as such in Guitar Player magazine back then.

The Judgement Night oundtrack was mentionned on LB lately but one of my fave was the Dutch band Urban Dance Squad. Also Rollins Band Weight is a classic as well as ICe T's Bodycount plus a few obscure one like this one:

None, the current music industry is devoid of anything fresh or inspiring. There may be artists out there who could but they won’t cross over in the current sanitised music scene controlled by cooperate pigs who want artists they can fully control who will bend over for them and take it up the ringer…the 90s was the last great era of music, everything that came after just seems largely forgettable. Also the fact people now download music rather than go out and buy the albums, singles etc means we no longer really own the music and are less connected. People would rather spend their money on expensive coffees than pay for music that could inspire or change their lives. Technology, wokeism and greed has killed music and the artists of today….rant over…haha

Last album that got you excited!

Strange one for me, I love my music and from teens to 30s savoured everything then I hit a dull patch and nothing! In 2018 someone sent me a link to marabou states album kingdoms in colour and I loved it , musically brilliant and well produced . My tastes vary from old school rock to chilled stuff Kruder and Dorfmeister , DnB , Jazz . I found this album so exciting and good!! Sadly since 2018 haven’t found anything that excited me

Its because Simon Cowell the living incarnation of the anti-christ ruined the music industry. I got into NWOBHM. New wave of British heavy metal. I saw Saxon supporting Rainbow and the crowd were still calling for Saxon after Rainbow set. Blackmore fired them as the support band. Thats the only time I have seen the support band blow the headline band away.

This was circa 1980 which was a year for metal. You also had the sunset strip bands. There seemed to be a new band every month. Then there was the rave scene I got into because of the parties.

The last band that made me go I have to get an album was System of a Down Mesmerize the track BYOB Bring your own bomb. Its now a band every 10 years or so.

You think its you getting old but its not. I teach music and check out new stuff regularly and nothing moves me if I can hear who they are copying. There doesnt seem to be as many up and comming bands around.

Where are today’s protest singers?

Just listening to gill Scott herons first album ‘a new black poet’ , he still has the power to shock.who are today’s protest singers.
Is urban rap and hip hop, choose your genre, the new protest platform. Or is it just a mysoginist, homophobic, violent twisted reflection of city life from those excluded from the mainstream.
Is stormsy the new urban Dylan.?

There is still a pretty decent punk scene out there. (or was before the pandemic)Human Project, Random Hand, SB6, Crazy Arm- all inherently political. Solo artists- Babar Luck, Chris TT, Prolefeed, Carol Hodge.

I agree the power of the music to inform and protest is lost, but straight of the gate, you have macklemore Hinds Hall (this came out of nowhere!). Whatever your position on the conflict (or the tune) it sums up what the issue is. Bands are commodities and businesses know they can be used to influence, so they invest heavily. And if you don't tow the line then your out!

Protest the Hero + Show Me the Body are two bands that spring to mind. These are certainly not protest artists sonically, as they are both heavier guitar bands, but are both aggressively anti-establishment, discussing topics you won’t hear other artists sing about.

Nickm

Just as much intolerance on the left as on the right. We live in a shallow social media driven world. In which we all eat consume far too much whilst slowly killing ourselves and the planet. Facebook, mcdonald's,nike etc. It's a shallow,plastic world and that's not a suitable environment for growing protest singers.

+5

Frizzy

Sort of agree, unfortunately the mass media (particularly print media) are owned run by right wing, ie Sun, times, telegraph etc

+3

Dopey 9.6/10

The BBC, THe Guardian Newspaper, Channel 4, ITV to name a few left wing media outlets.

And for the BBC to be so biased is a disgrace just look at the stats over 14% LBGTQ within there workforce as opposed to 0.4% in most other organisations massively disproportionate.

Also the mainstream media seems to love to demonise the working classes.

The white indegoius male is despised by the main stream media especially the BBC.

All I do know is before all this WOKE nonsense started we had not been at this much level of war activity since the second World War and now look at all this mess.

Weak leftist policies have risked our safety and security to the point where I worry about my relatives safety in the UK and have also made us a target from forces that want to destroy us.

You need only look at who was the London mayor best mate at UNi for example ? None other than the leader of Albasha terror GROUP. and if that does not worry you to realise that if all this wokey business continues there won't be no western songs ti sing no more because they will be banned.

I remember the cold War, I remember living in the troubles and feeling and hearing the sounds of cemtex around me and going through the checkpoints. I talk from experience and no the real dangers that all this liberal far left nonsense brings as I have lived and breathed this shit before.

DeadRabb1t

"The perceived partiality of the BBC comes from both sides of the political spectrum. Of the people in the YouGov survey who identified as supporting the Conservatives, 15% thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable towards the left and 23% thought they were much more favourable. Conversely, 26% of those who identified as supporting Labour thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable to the right and 20% thought they were much more favourable."

Eds released a new album this year, which is well worth a listen - he's still got it!

In short, yes! 60's, 70's and even through to the 90's we dominated and now...it's pretty much garbage, don't even listen to the radio anymore!

Father_Jack

Culture is too atomised due to the internet, and the arts in general are increasingly more like a status game for the rich than in the 60s-90s: there are few financial incentives to be a good musician anymore and only the very biggest, well connected, and commercially safest acts can now make a living from music. Plus all the stuff in the vid cloudeater posted.

+4

jcantona99

Shouldn’t need a financial incentive to be good. Not in any hobby. Your either good or your not. This is Gained by natural skills or just brute force hard work. Although that barely matters these days as per the headline of this topic rightly suggesting a low. It’s a yo yo. Electronic / new age is the current theme with low quality and high output. It will go back to guitar rock as soon as the uni students decide that is more cool

+2

Father_Jack

Agree if it's just a hobby. If you are going to be a professional musician full time, and are not independently wealthy already, you eventually need to make some kind of a living and pay the rent. And you probably won't get pro-level skills at an instrument/performing/production without being able to put a ton of time into it.

+2.2

RobDj79

The only solid revenue for musicians these days is touring and merchandise. The income from single & album sales is much lower than it was thanks to mp3 & streaming platforms
Everything is so disposable these days 😪

BB!!! 💥💥💥💥👾👾👾

I am SO sorry it has taken me SO long to respond to this total wonderfulness. Even coming on here gives me bad social anxiety if my head's not right. But, oh my goodness! The way I learned of this was SO excellent. I was tripping at the time, and on the phone to a bigga buddy, totally loved up with my LB buddies, and the conversation went..
Me - how's everyone on LB?
Him - firitffiitdturzu
Me - ohhh!! Tell - so and so I love them!! SOOOO much!!!
Him- OK
Me - do it now PLEASE
Him - OK
Me - asks him to do the same for a few more biggas
Him- mutters something about BB and DMT
Me- oooohhhh! Tell BB I love him!!!
Him- well he's sent some love your way too ( tells me about you posting this tune but doesn't remember what the actual tune was)
Me - oh my god! ( mega excited). You have to remember! Find it and take a screenshot and send it.
Him - it was an Elton John tune
Me - oh :/ .. ( not much of a fan)
Me - BUT - I ABSOLUTELY LOOOOVE , I guess that's why they call it the blues. F'in LOVE it.

A few hours later, back on the phone

Me- you haven't sent me the screen shot!
Him- OK I'll do it now, just finding it........ aaand I'm just about to blow your mind..when you see which song it is..
Me - it's not!!!?
Him - yup
Me -( loses it )
And I went off and played it like, sixty bajillion times, and it was F'IN AMAZING!, and had one of the best music tripping experiences ever. Thank you so much 🩷

And re the boxing day thing - doing that afforded me the very best feeling I had over the whole of that shitty Christmas. I felt like I should be thanking you! Made me so happy.

Keep keeping it real BB, you are just so unapologetically you. Always. Totally authentic, and I think you're the bollocks ( even though I am still quite scared of you, haha)

God loves you Fifi!
After 5 extractions through almost as many months i reached enlightenment sp[iritually.
After 5 i also remembered what i i done different in my 1st spirit molecule extraction that gave me an amazing yield like no other.
Looking forwards to my nxt one now.
It knocks you out but doesn't get you high,
opened eyed the spirit world and material co-exist, closed eyed you're in the spirit world, breathing as a human, experiencing life as a soul. in the soul kingdom, the afterlife, the underworld.
being shown living 4 dimensional magic objects of impossible geometry.
It's quite the trip.

Canna and psychedelics is all you need, and even then need is a strong word.
I've been off things around 10 days now, started feeling pretty good already, got a little smoke on the way and also the products to make more spirit molecule pixie dust for some uber vapes.
Honestly if i had to make a choice between weed and pixie dust i'd have to go for the dust.
Weed makes you feel real Bliss, doesn't take you to the land of Bliss tho.
Damn i can't wait to go on another journey been a good few weeks stuck on this damn planet.
Hope you're all doing well my friends, believe in the power of Prayer.❤️✌️

Hi BB

Was waiting for Psychonauts to resurface and am catching up on several threads.

I agree with you, I'm starting to see it the same way: if I had to I'd give up THC and would stick to shrooms & Lucy (mostly microdoses though).

I still have one of Psychonauts Dimitri vape form last year but am keeping it for the right time.

Agreed that need is maybe not the word, food and water (and love) is all you need to stay alive but I always felt that the spirit needs its own food.

And also the picture above: when we went down to the arcade as teenagers we were never as good at the games than when we had a smoke: there was that moment when we were in the zone and we would always end up in the top 10 high scores. Sorry FBI!

There's a great documentary on sky documentaries about the legendary "Big Beach Boutique" beach party on Brighton beach back in 2002. Well worth a watch, especially if you were one of the 250k folk that attended.
There were some mental outdoor parties in the early 2000's
This being one, The Leeds love parade and Glastonbury in 2000 were 2 of my most memorable.

I'm a jazz cat, started out with hip hop in the early 80's, as I grew and understood the source content more, I got into jazz, funk, soul, disco etc etc. I have stoopid jazz collection at this point, still find new samples every day.
Coltrane's Naima is the song I want to escort me to the next level when the time comes.
Other than the ones we all know and love (Coltrane, Miles, Monk, Grant etc) Paul Desmond's discography has kept me busy recently, love Bobby Hutcherson and Bobby Humphreys. So much jazz so little time

Hi glabazoie

Not a song I know very well but there is a classic version by Julie London with Barney Kessel on guitar (album "Julie Is Her Name").

There is an instrumental version I like a lot because of Grant Green playing a beautiful guitar solo (on the album "All The Gin IS Gone" by Jimmy Forrest).

You can listen to both on Youtube.

I have a few Jazz Standards which I like (and play as a dabbling Jazz guitar player) but they are the usual array: Stella by Starlight, You Go to My Head, Foggy Day In London, How High The Moon and so on but it really depends on the artist.

Also there is a major distinction between instrumental versions and sung versions. I don't think the instrumental versions are as accessible to the casual listener.

Cheers

LB Appreciation Society Unite!

Sitting here enjoying this track as i think about how LB has made life a bit easier the last few weeks, letting a bong of his Holinesses' Kosher Kush topped with RealD's Gary Iso melt the back of my eyes... yep, much easier!
Lessons have been learned, eyes opened, perceptions realised, focus narrowed, faces have been revealed to be multilayered, one of many, one for me, one for you, be careful out there people, not everyone is your friend but look after and be grateful for the ones who are, life is too short to waste it on bad anything and the most precious thing we have is time, spend it doing the things that make you happy.

Hip Hop is alive!

I am a 80/90s hip hop fan, for a long time hip hop in my eyes has been dead, there have been the few sparks here and there over the past 20 years and the likes of KRS 1, Paris, Dead Prez, Guru (RIP), Public Enemy, Jeru etc. have kept it real with the message and essence of what hip hop represented in its prime, highlighting the race and wealth inequality in society and acting as a "Black CNN" talking directly to the people.

In the 80s and 90's the message was Fight the Power, and that's where I feel we have come full circle.
Check out Fight The Power 2020 on Public Enemies new album.

The calls for equality in a deeply polarised society couldn't be heard louder, on the right, division, hatred and the slow creep of fascism, not just in America but here in the UK and across Europe.

As George Carlin mentioned, America has owners, "huge corporations who control the media and the politicians, they own everything" its true and that's why the message is controlled to support the status quo, this is the end game of Capitalism.

Hip hop and graffiti art speaks for the people, some of the last vestiges of independent expression, hip hop can be fun and silly, I love loads of hip hop, Redman, Raekwon and Daz Dillinger are some of my all time favourites but deep down it represents a movement for change.
This year has been kind so far.
If your a fan, check out:

RTJ4

Public Enemy - when the grid goes down

Paris - Safe Space Invader

By all means add your own recommendations too.

For the record my favourite rapper is Tupac Shakur.

My favourite album is Death Certificate by Ice Cube.

I love most music and I'm not a hater of stuff I dislike, unless it's corporate soulless shit selling sex, consumerism and greed, especially if it's targeted at children. Specifically music videos should not be porn unless stated as such.

Peace Comrades :)

Dylan was my first musical love. I’m a big fan. My son’s name is Dylan, I’ve a Dylan tattoo.
A true legend

+2

BBDoom

I was introduced to his music at a very early age, and went on to play acoustic guitar and a little harmonica!😁
For around 10 years i was playing, mostly dylan, (and neil young, simon and garfunkel etc.)very dedicated i was too!😊
His voice is so expressive i think that's lost on a lot of folks.
I found his bootlegs when i went to london and worked in my early 20s, in Camden market, they were playing one of the bootlegs at the time and i felt like i'd found music heaven.
Take care friend!💚
My best friend when i was growing up also named his first born Dylan.👊

+2

BBDoom

All my working life i've worked night shift or the afternoon /evening shift pretty much.
Now i work early morning start time, i've to get up around 6.
I used to still be up at 6 on weekends watching UFC. Those days are done for now, i'm working with some really cool folks now tho and i get fed at my job and i'm left alone to get it done.
Get my first wage this week but it'll not be till another couple weeks till i'm back on track.
Don't let folks tell you there's loads of jobs out there cause it just ain't the case.
Tho after i actually found work i did get other offers /opportunities else ware too but i'm happy where i am even if my start time is not for a late night stoner.
One more tip, references are important nowadays, if you're gonna leave your job try not to fall out with the company you currently work for.😁❤️

MightyRux

Only legendary artist I've walked away from when they were performing. Super pretentious at Glastonbury refusing any screens for his performance in the late '90s. Dreadful acoustics (only worse at Glastonbury was Orbital, and that was sad as I was looking forward to them so much). We went to get food instead and left Bob singing badly out of tune. Vastly overrated performer, outstanding songwriter.

I seen him in Wembley and central Scotland, both outstanding and i got the bootlegs from both.

Well we can only speak as we find. One of the very best gigs I ever saw was Arthur Lee and Love playing not long before he succumbed to leukaemia. Outstanding acoustics and a performance so good you'd think it was recorded: Shazam showed otherwise.

To the biggas without

I've been off around 9-10 days now and looking at another 2 weeks.
Easy peasy, it gets easier and easier each time you get off it believe me.
I suffer no real sweats now and can sleep no problem and feel pretty good too.
This time has been the easiest yet just keep yourself busy and try focusing on others, use the time to get things done.
Getting up early helps too, catch the morning sun.👍
Music is a great healer and this ones for you my friends and when we get back we ain't gonna need $40 a gram hash to get high, all we're gonna need is a puff or two of some regular and if you do choose the extortionate stuff on your return be careful!😁
I'll probably go with some $23 a gram iso hash and end up on the floor after a single skinner.
Could buy myself a g or two now but no point really especially Christmas coming up.
Be well out there and enjoy the real dopamine God gave us to get by with in this nasty cruel world we live in now.

Man's best friend

by BBDoom

Man's best friend

Song starts about the guy and his new love, but turns quick to his sick best friend, with terminal cancer running through it's blood. The lyrics in song are of those between the man and his doggo, their interactions together. The doggo begins the dialogue between them with

'let it go', 'i'll be there when you call',
'And whenever I fall at your feet
'You let your tears rain down on me'

that's when songs switches from thoughts of the girlfriend to his doggo and the dialogue between them.

End of verse 1 you hear about a slow turning pain, start of verse two we hear from man about his doggo hiding and it's voice not sounding right.

'You're hidin' from me now
There's somethin' in the way that you're talkin'
The words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you'

once man has noticed his doggo's voice has changed and heard the cancer moving through itthe doggo responds with

'Know' ,'i'll be waiting when you call'
'Hey', 'whenever I fall at your feet'
'Won't you let your tears rain down on me?'

Many crowded house album covers feature doggos.

Stay Blessed.

-Damian Marley, you can just tell dude is channeling spirits and letting them flow through him.

-Tash Sultana does magic with her loop pedal

-Sting & Shaggy, a duo performance that'll put a smile on anybody's face

Wakey Bakey LB

How are we all starting the day today?

Im letting a ladykiller of Grapefruit Diesel flower and Chocolate Chips hash welcome me to the end of the weekend.
Thinking about how this festival of fuzz has all been made possible by LB and you amazing lot!

Myself and another Bigga started proceedings Friday with THESPACEMEN and their Golden Teachers:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/zynhXW

Combined in a 50/50 mix with TheFunGuy's B+ :
https://littlebiggy.com/link/C649uy

Balls were tripped.

Support has been provided by Green Cat's Pink Kush & Grapefruit Diesel:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/VuaBKP

and...

Eddy, with his Hardcore Strawberries and Chocolate Chips hasheeeesh:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/Vg4K2f

Last night even The Pope of Dope made a Special Guest appearance blessing us with his Super Pink Kush:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/xxcr4F

Then there's you Biggas, out here helping the community find their way about, sharing the love, knowledge and beautiful music that helps the world make sense to you!

Special mention to Dhokha for the heads up on the legitimacy of THESPACEMEN's intro offer, doing his bit for the community from inside Borg Jail.

pollypuff20

Wow, that is an amazing selection right there! 🤩

Personally I’ve been getting my chef’s hat on!

Weed with extracts is always a good idea but mixing in sticky concentrates to make a ‘Roulade’ (my take!) is a bloody great one!

The ‘Dream Wedding’ Roulade:

Ingredients:
Wedding Cake by Druids Magic
Blue Dream Caviar from Canadian Imports

Method:
Grind weed and use a dab tool to spoon caviar on top. Use fingers to work into the weed until covered (weed will prevent fingers getting too sticky), and compress into a cake (roulade!)

Load roulade into a dosing capsule and bake @ 195c for 2+2 minutes.

Inhale deeply and say “I DO!”

Terp Bomb!

Big hitting rolling euphoria will ensue heading moonwards and the most tremendous sense of well being…just fabulous..

A match made in heaven..

PP20 😘

+2

B0W13

Ok that just made me drool a little, cant wait till i can upgrade the vape!

Moonwards is my preferred direction of travel so sounds perfect.

Was your reports about hash and concentrates made into little weedy sandwiches in the capsules that made me realise my vape wasnt versatile enough.
That Roulade looks delish, been keen to visit Canadian Imports, better get my wedding suit ready.

Nice. And great track. This weekend I've been on the Druids Magic incredible bud (High Mars and Future Island, potent sativa dominant strains). Thank you to DM for some inspiring weed. Currently smoking the Mars and enjoying the autumn rain from my window while cosy at home. Listening to the track above.

Shoutout too to Green Cat and Pontiff of Piff above, have ordered from them before and it was top quality stuff and great service.

Feeling very blessed again to have found the LB community (who have been very kind to a new Bigga) and all these brilliant growers/vendors.

What an album!

music is more powerful than any drug in my opinion and its easier than ever to share. the best kind of songs are the ones that make you feel something and no matter how much time passes they can still be appreciated no matter who you are. my life wouldn't be the same without music very grateful for the people who make this stuff. respect 👊

It really helps when you're taking a break from the weed, incredibly therapeutic, it fills the heart.❤️👊

Fifijane

Beautifully said 👏
It is SO wonderful how easy it is to share music now, but I do sometimes feel a twinge of longing/ nostalgia for the days of the mix tape. Having a tactile representation of a friend's care. Knowing they've taken the time to gift you with tunes, that they've clunkily stopped and rewound and recorded. The excitement of playing them to death. Just the most wonderful thing to receive.
Or arriving back at someone's house after a night out and getting so excited about their music collection - stuff you would love but don't have, and so such a treat to listen to. Sometimes I think the yout are a bit spoilt. I feel like I've earned it, haha 🏋‍♀️💥

Any metalheads on here?

Hey guys hope you’re all having a cool weekend. Just wondering are there Any metalheads on LB? I love most metal but my fave genres are probably blackgaze and post black metal. I really like Alcest and Panopticon I’d say they’re the bands I’m listening to the most right now. I remember people telling me when I was a teenager I’d grow out of metal,well I’m in my 40s now and still listening just as much if not more. It really is a way of life. Love and peace.

OldManEd

I'm mid-forties now and grew up on bands like Metallica, Pantera, Machine Head and NIN. I've always been into other stuff as well but it's what I mostly listened to during my teens and twenties.

I don't listen to metal as much as I used to however I've found the old adage that your tastes mellow with age to be untrue in my case. I listen to some much heavier, more extreme bands than I used to and I'm much more open to sub genres I wouldn't have considered before.

My current favourite heavy listen is Lullabies for Eternal Sleep by Apes. Hadn't heard of them until I read a brief review that described that EP as being sort of like post-metal if all the quiet bits were replaced with nasty grindcore. One listen and I'd bought the tracks off Bandcamp. The first track, Cornwall, is savage but has such an amazing groove too.

If you like blackened stuff then check out Apes' earlier album, Lightless. Different to the latest material but still bloody good.

+2

TheSnake61

I pretty much listen to every metal track thrown at me with passion :D.
I love albums in every genre.
Some of my favorites bands are Decapitated, Dimmu Borgir, TBDM, born of osiris, meshuggah, lamb of god, well theres too much really ^^..

Metal is definitely a way of life.

Recently i've been listening to the Nomad album by Kublai Khan (insane tone/sound) and a gradual decline in moral by Kim Dracula, pretty strange shit but i love it haha.

WizardsB0ng

Must be more then a few metalheads here on LB for sure.

Right now I'm waiting for the re-recording by the Calavera brother's of the Morbid Visions record. Absolutely can't bloody wait for that! Artwork is on point and the sound, my goodness.

But otherwise, been on a death metal vibe recently - the new 200 Stab Wounds EP and the new Kruelty record basically.

+1

Climatechange69

Yeah I was thinking the same,that’s why I made the post just to see what bands everyone was into.

Oh if they get that right it should be awesome. Early Sepultura rocks. Love the Arise album lost interest around Roots. That album wasn’t for me. I really like Derrick on vocals even though a lot of Max fan boys gave him a hard time when he joined.

+2

Piggino Brilliante

Derrick is a much better frontman than Max

+2

WizardsB0ng

That's true and these later Sepultura albums are genuinely great!

Kushna42

Tonight I've been listening to Cult of Luna and Boris. Last night it was Lamp of Murmuur and Fluisteraars. I'm in my 50s. Metal seems to make more sense the older I get but then the type of metal I listen to now is different from the metal I listened to at 16. Except for Sabbath. Always Sabbath 🤘Music just keeps on getting better.

+3

Climatechange69

Absolutely love Cult Of Luna their Salvation album was incredible! Can’t remember if it was their debut? Give Panoption a listen man especially there again into the light album it is pure genius. Austin Lunn plays over a dozen instruments on the album. Can’t wait to see them next month on their first ever UK tour. Always Iron Maiden for me mate though I do obviously love Sabbath.

+2

Kushna42

Oh yeah I love Panopticon too. I was listening to And Again... last night. Also Botanist and Wolves In The Throne Room, sheer sheets of metallic sound, hypnotic riffs it's damn psychedelic as a genre in many ways. Also into stuff like Thou and Primitive Man, I was listening to the last Wormrot album the other day. There's just so much good stuff and such massive variety that it's impossible to not like something that's "metal" if you're into music. If anyone avoids metal they should take a deep dive into all the sub genres cos they'd be surprised at how much they would probably love. From Sunn O))) to Full of Hell and all the stops in between.

+2

I'm wearing a Primitive Man t-shirt at the moment.

Kushna42

Brilliant. I've got my Sleep Dopesmoker one on 🤘

+1

Climatechange69

Got my Alcest tee on and had my Emperor one on yesterday! Lol.

+1

Climatechange69

They’re ..again into the light album is so good. I found it very accessible compared to their earlier stuff. Still really enjoy their early folk metal inspired stuff. Kentucky is fantastic. I was lucky enough to see Wolves In The Throne Room a few years back. Beautiful gig. It was bombastic and majestic all at once. 🤘

+2

Wallop

I saw Panopticon a few years back over in Dutchie land, enjoyed them but haven't paid much attention to them since.Do you like Wayfarer? They do a similar type of thing kinda country tinged BM.

+2

Climatechange69

Really like Wayfarer too and a Scottish band called Saor. They play a similar style to Panopticon. Can’t wait to see them live,I’ve waited years for them to visit the UK. Gotta travel a few hundred miles but it will deffo be worth it. Much love.

+2

Wallop

Next years fortress festival looks up your street,

+1

Climatechange69

Mate it looks epic!! Panopticon are headlining day one and are playing their entire Roads To The North album!! The entire weekend looks genuinely great too.

Kushna42

Saw Maiden on the Powerslave tour. It was one of my first gigs. Christ I'm so fuckin old.

Would love to of saw peak Maiden.

The Boris/Uniform album sounds like it's going to be a good un.

+2

Cr0w

Dad got me into metal with sabbath i have to agree nearly 40 now .... So many metal genres would not exist without them ..

+1

Climatechange69

Yeah Sabbath are definitely the godfathers of metal. Without them half the genres today wouldn’t exist.

+2

Cr0w

and if you into black metal check out Blackbraid they just relesed their second album its Native american black metal if you like melodic stuff check em out i feel they are only going to get better...

For anyone who doesn't realise how talented these two are, not only did they co-write "People Just Do Nothing"...but my guy in the Polo cap wrote 'Next to Me' made famous by Emily Sande. ❤️

DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing for me. One of the few multi format albums I own that I’ve had to replace several times cos I’ve worn it out. Freaks me out that it’s nearly 30 years old, it blew my mind then and it still does now. A masterpiece of a sonic journey.

I second both of these choices. I came here to say the 2nd as clearly the thread title leads anyone who knows the album to think of it. Saw them play it live about 20 years ago, and they were superb.

I adore this album. I wanted a copy on vinyl years ago and my mate's dad sold stuff on eBay and had it, apparently! I went to his house and he had about 10 copies, and I took the best. Can't remember what I paid, but around £10 would have been reasonable.

This is the soundtrack to 80% or above of '80s childhood car journeys. This, Dr Hook, bit of Dire Staits, those circular hard sweets that cost about £20 in the motorway services that were covered in powdered sugar that would go everywhere when you took a sweet?

My music taste is all over the shop so you might not like it, but I’ll give you some music I’ve been playing recently

Doubt many have heard this, but basically the story behind this song and others in the album is that someone somehow ended up in a parallel universe where either the beetles never broke up or ended up getting back together & never died. Which led to the creation of this so called album and a few others. Some guy stole this album which was on a cassette tape and some how managed to bring it to our universe, I can’t fully remember the story but it’s on the internet somewhere with a full web site explaining the story, I’ll link it for anyone whose interested

I was obsessed with Prince when I was in my early teens. Had every album on vinyl and cassette tape, all the picture disks, plus the CDs when they came out. Even had a leather jacket with the symbol on the back.🤣

Interestingly, Sinead O'Connor didn't get along with Prince at all, but she had such an incredible voice and did such a fantastic video of the song, he still allowed her rendition to be released.

I think people often forget how many songs Prince wrote for other artists. He was an absolute musical genius, the kind of which I doubt we will see again anytime soon.

If anyone wants to know just how talented he was, listen to the incredible 1987 release; 'Sign o' the Times'. The vast majority of the instruments on the entire album were played by Prince himself, alongside the new (at the time) LM-1 drum machine.

Anyway, I'm getting nerdy now but yeah, an absolute hero of mine... and a musical legend.

RIP.❤️

Cheers BB

(N.B - It's fifteen days, not thirteen. Sorry to be pedantic! 💚).

This showcases to me excactly how fucking god tier talented Prince was

Listened to him a lot when I was a teen as one of my friends adored him

Yeah watched that again

It's not so much he unzips and pisses on the others when he comes out

It's more he unzips and his cock is so large he's still getting it out by the time the song finishes

Tough one that. Vince Clarke era Depeche were arguably the best.
Pure electronic pop music and Vince cemented that with the fantastic Yazoo.
New order are really more of a British institution as later Depeche went full on American rock gods cliche, and not really my thing.
Born out of Joy Division ultimately New Order’s path was foisted upon them by the untimely tragedy of Ian Curtis but they rose to the occasion and still put out the occasionally brilliant record (last one for me was ‘shifty’) and have a back catalogue of strong albums with ‘Technique’ ‘Power Corruption and Lies’ being my favourites.

I love De La Soul and have most of their OG albums on wax, only one I’m missing is ‘De La Soul Is Dead’ sadly Dave/Plug Two recently passed away so raise a glass to one of the finest rap crews to ever do it.
They were part of the native tongues movement which included the also amazing Jungle Brothers, Tribe Called Quest, Black Sheep, Monie Love, Queen Latifah, Red Alert, KMD, Leaders Of The New School amongst others. These guys changed the course of Hip Hop from misogynistic and violent lyrics and imagery to something more soulful and powerful, and arguably great music to smoke to.
RIP Dave Joncleur. 🙏🏾❤️

Screamadelica

Speaking to an old friend from days long gone and he told me his favourite memories from back in the early 90s was after clubs heading back to mine and I'd put Screamadelica on repeat while everyone chilled out and came down passing 'round the spliffs. Related this to a younger colleague and they had never listened to it! So, just in case there are any others who are unfamiliar with this masterpiece I thought I'd post a link to it so they can discover this album which, it so happens, is about to celebrate its 30th birthday on September 23!!!

edit: Unfortunately the full album doesn't play from the link so I'd recommend playing it in full on YT or Spotify etc. You REALLY need to play it all the way through, trust me!

Tony888

Big part of that album was Andy Weatherall god rest his soul. If it weren’t for him and his production they’d still be doing Byrds impersonations (not that there’s anything wrong with that)
It was perfect symmetry at that time and resulted in a groundbreaking record.
Oddly enough it wasn’t one of those albums we used to toke to very much, there were loads of far more ‘expansive’ records for those listening occasions one of which was the Orb’s ‘Blue Room’ track in its 45 minute entirety… Still got my primals original bus stop poster for the album and the original double vinyl both of which must be worth a few Bob now…..

It was announced Feb 14th to the mailing list and tickets went on sale the same day (and sold out 😧)

Only seen them 3 times in 3 decades but that one was the best sounding, the m.e.n or whatever it's called was best visually, the Apollo was most sweaty 😂

Ah no wonder I didn't hear... Pretty out of the loop with gigs these days anyway. Doesn't stop me from being jealous though! What was the set like? When I've seen them, usually a good mix of new and old. Seen them at Brixton academy a few times... Venue suits them very well.

Floyd Fans?

Had a near 50 year music obsession, and as well as an addiction to Reggae (roots/dub) I love a bit of Pink Floyd too.
If you’re a big fan of the early 70s stuff, you need to check this out
https://youtu.be/4OhhN82dGqQ
This band became Far East Family Band, those releases were also amazing, with Kitaro and Klaus Schulze on board made for a cosmic krautrock mashup!
Julian Cope highly rates this album, Nihojin by Far Out. It’s every bit as good as Meddle, especially as most of the musicians were street artists living in a commune.
Try it ;)

pollypuff20

As a massive Floyd fan I will give that a go- thanks👍🎸

Tony888

Dropping some cool there.
As you can tell by my avatar I’m a massive Syd fan. All things Syd is my bag.
And being an old guy I have
a lot of the original vinyl, I’m also a second hand record dealer so I’ve picked up a nice collection over 40 years :)
I have most of the Floyd’s post Syd stuff but will always one back to those first two or three albums as they’re in a different league as are the early singles (apples and oranges, scream thy last scream, point me at the sky etc)
And Julian Cope is another subject entirely, author musician poet arch drude….the guy has it all and is a huge influence….
His biography ‘head on’ is an essential read as is his ‘modern antiquarian’ and ‘krautrock sampler’
For me his ‘fried’ and ‘Peggy suicide’ albums are next level. His wife Dorian is also extremely knowledgable about a raft of subjects. I find em both fascinating and endless sources of information. Huzzah! :)

Hi Tony

Interstellar Overdrive. This is what made me pick up the guitar when I was 17.

At the time I went to Paris with my family and bought three guitar books, one of which was a failry rare early floyd chords/lyrics book:

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/pink-floyd-67-early-years-syd-barrett-1934674009

I've spent hours trying to work out what Syd was playing on Take up thy stethoscope and Walk, his style melted rythm and lead guitar.

Cheers

+3

Tony888

You’re right! I don’t think Syd knew what he was playing, he just did it instinctively hence not many other players have his unique style which is part rhythm part lead and part background weirdness 😄 the guy was a genius and I know that word is bandied about regularly but in Syd’s case it was true. The fact it still sounds weird and yet familiar some 50 years on is astounding.

+1

TWDuke

Hi Tony

Totally. His rythmn style in particular is absolute bonkers, think Lucifer Sam.

Often he would play lead off the chords shapes like in Astronomy Domine but other times you can really hear the influence of LSD on his style.

I've heard them cover songs like Louie Louie on bootlegs and I guess there was a skiffle/RnB influence on his playing like most other Brits at the time.

But man whatever influences he had they were warped and twisted beyond recognition.

Cheers

pollypuff20

Oooh oooh…that reminds me of a Floyd trivia question I was given recently (how’s this for a toughie):

“There is exactly half a century between Roger Waters first accredited studio song and his last. What was his first ever lyric and his last?”

Answer:

“Doctor Doctor

The 60s Floyd is pure gold, And my daughter is called Emily for some reason!
There was some really amazing bands cutting a whole new sound, 66 to 73 is probably the best era ever.
Im torn with the best band ever, toss up between Floyd, Hawkwind or Velvet Underground. Its a tough one!

+4

Tony888

Ooof! The velvets for sure are another one of my faves. Right up to ‘loaded’ they pretty much created ‘art rock’ out of psychedelia. No mean feat.
Yeah, that era was amazing and there are sooooo many great bands both obscure and well known that made classic records like the Pretty Things SF Sorrow, The Byrds younger than yesterday , Caravan’s first album, Kevin Ayers - joy of a toy, the Beach Boys - pet sounds, Kaleidoscope’s tangerine dream, Billy Nichols - would you believe, Small Faces - ogdens nut gone flake, the Kinks - something else, the Zombies - Odyssey and oracle….this is just a fraction of some of the fantastic albums of that period.
Mind you, there’s great music in all eras it’s digging for it that makes things rewarding. I love anything from this stuff to U.K. Garage from the 90s to US/U.K. hip hop from that decade to 90s drum and bass, House, Reggae, Soul, Funk, Disco, Library music, Easy listening/Lounge, Jazz, punk, new wave stuff like XTC, the Slits, electronic pop like early human league, soft cell, Scritti Politti, YMO, Yello, Prefab Sprout, Fad Gadget, early Depeche, Yazoo etc soundtracks, Indie stuff like Felt, Cocteaus, Pale Saints, early Verve, My Bloody Valentine, Spacemen 3, loads of Creation stuff, Rough trade and the Smiths, also dig a bit of classical, electronic experimental stuff, ambient, downtempo….pretty much most things.
There is so much good music out there it’s insane in a good way :)

Just heard he died a few days ago and saddened to hear of his passing. Much respect to him for his great work with the original incarnation of Hawkwind and his tireless work ethic afterwards. Highly eccentric and a bit ornery, but nobody can deny his essential role in the evolution of space rock.

I saw Nik play with various bands over the years. He was a true hero of the counterculture. Sad news.

The story I heard they asked jimi Hendrix to play with them at the Isle of Wight(outside the gates,that’s where hawkwind played)but apparently he said no he was depressed,couple of weeks later jimi Hendrix was dead
A lot of people were protesting against the admission fees that’s why hawkwind played outside.
They were pretty unknown at the time
1970.

Voodoochild

Hawkwind played outside the gates at the Isle of Wight festival, every drink was laced with acid.

Zapgaz

The guitarist at the time (Huw Lloyd Langton RIP) had a bad trip at IOW 1970, think the band were playing in an inflatable tent that deflated in a speedy manner! Huw was so so wasted in cid, that he fled in terror and wasn’t seen for a decade! Not sure how much truth in story, but sounds about right!

Voodoochild

He was a good front man for hawkwind, my brother was really into them he’s got everything that hawkwind brought out, a big collection.

Both Nik and Robert Calvert were equally good frontmen.
Check out the Stonehenge 1984 dvd with Nik in full body suit and obviously high as fuck. That was Alan Daveys first gig with Hawkwind too, 99% genuine Lemmy replacement, fantastic bassist Alan.

Ghost writers or not you’ve got to admit they can rap! I honestly don’t think they do have ghost writers or that they’re a gimmick though. They’ve said in interviews they write with the help of their grand kids for current slang plus to date I haven’t found any evidence to say that they had prior connections with anyone like that in the music industry who would have ghost written for them. Time will tell though and I’ll happily stand corrected! (Maybe not happily as some of the magic would be lost but still lol). Anyway check out the track in the link if you haven’t already. Banger!

by dashing 10/10

Music for psychedelic therapy

Jon Hopkins is a classically trained pianist turned techno genius.

One of his recent album recordings, music for psychedelic therapy, caught my ear a while ago after the release of the promo track, Sit around the fire with East forest and the late, great Ram Dass.

This album is, in my opinion, the ultimate chill. There are some live ambient recordings on this track which give it so much natural flow. For example, Jon and his associates travelled to Tayos Cave in Ecuador and stayed in a the caves for a few days while collecting audio samples of waterfalls. There are birds, butterflies and flowers, some bloops and wooshes etc

With not a single drum beat

The album evolved from there after 10 days in caves, back to London and after a while, during lockdown was compiled into the album.

During this time Jon would take notes while under the influence of ketamine and then work to make any changes.

The albums length is supposed to last the length of a ketamine trip.

Now I don't use ketamine or mushrooms, nothing wrong with that, I've had my share. However there are recent studies to suggest that micro dosing psychedelics can be used to treat a plethora of human psychological issues including depression, anxiety, ptsd, alcoholism and probably many more. This is a good thing helping to remove stigma away from what was thought to be a bad substance. Education is needed not prohibition.

I do use this album in my own way and I fucking love it.

I'm just going to leave that there for now. I need to vape some bud.

If you do trip, shroom,dmt, meditate I recommend this accompanying soundtrack.

If you just want to chill I recommend this sound track.

I'm going to go vape now and put it on.

They are both legends. The Stones roses album is probably the most perfect album of its time, with exception maybe being the LA’s album. Happy mondays had some tunes though.

Have a toke while listening to Mondays ‘loose fit’ or rock out to the awesome ‘I am the resurrection’ by the roses.

Thanks for sharing.

whatcanido234

Me too. Frank Zappa was the most musically-curious artist in my life time. He once jammed with a South American group of Pan Pipe players and combined them with the Irish band The Chieftans along with his consummate guitar playing to create the most wonderfully-bizarre set I've ever enjoyed.
Don't know Frank Zappa? Check out the video 'City Of Tiny Lights', a plastacine masterpiece! Mind-expanding goodies all round? No. As I understand it, Frank didn't turn on anymore from a young age, if at all. A confirmed cigarette chain-smoker, there are records of strong tobacco being used to get high, but that's such a longshot. Frank's talents were his own, embellished by his creative genius; a real American Hero.
Frank once did a Pony ( a crap, defecation) on stage during a set. He then opened a case containing $25 000. He said that if anyone can do something more gross, they can take the money.
Some bright spark got up on stage and set about eating it. Did he win the money? What do you think?
Two of ours have gone recently. Spencer Davis and Gordon Haskell, along with the big Jamaican man, Toots Hibbard. The question: 'Does a bird know that it's singing a beautiful song? Or is it a manifestation of the bird's beautiful spirit?' can be asked of our heroes.
Who would you say has this quality? For me, Roy Orbison, Billie Holiday, George Harrison, Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, Dusty Springfield... for starters.

+2

Frizzy

Zappa was afaik completely free of drugs other than alcohol and tobacco.
I like the question are certain people born with a finite number of god given tunes, or are they limited by talent.
Motzart wrote so many works in a relatively short period, he never corrected a manuscript. Some say he only had enuf time to write them out, so the works must have been inside his head waiting to come out. No conscious thought just a outpouring of genius.
Zappa was same, his body of work is huge, most musicians I know admire him with godlike love.

+1

whatcanido234

Apropos Zappa, a rather excellent 'Tribute Band' (I know, stay with me) Called The Muffin Men. I saw them at the Phoenix in Exeter a few years ago. This from Wiki will give a measure of the quality of the band

The Muffin Men are a British band, based in Liverpool, England, which primarily plays the music of Frank Zappa and his band, The Mothers of Invention. The group formed in 1990 for a concert in honor of Zappa's fiftieth birthday. They went on to perform his music as a tribute band, along with some of their own compositions, worldwide. Until his death in 2008, the band often featured guest vocals and percussion by Jimmy Carl Black, former drummer and vocalist from Zappa's Mothers of Invention, with whom they also performed songs by Captain Beefheart.

Since their debut, the Muffin Men have featured no less than seven original Zappa band members, along with original Mothers Of Invention drummer/vocalist Jimmy Carl Black, as well as performing with Don Preston and Bunk Gardner in 1993. In 1994 they played a nine-week European tour with guest vocalist Ike Willis, and again teamed up with Willis in 2003 for a special Zappanale festival show, which also featured Napoleon Murphy Brock. (Zappanale is a yearly tribute concert festival dedicated to Frank Zappa's compositions.) Mike Keneally has also appeared with the band, along with Ray White, and Robert Martin. Denny Walley has performed on several occasions since 2010.

Rather than play pieces note-for-note, the band plays Zappa's material working to the strengths of the current line-up, often giving the music a different slant to the original versions.

25th anniversary gigs (2015) feature a core line-up of 3 original members - Rhino, Jumpy and Roddie, with Phil Hearn on keys

+1

Frizzy

Loved to have seen them or the real deal, Zappa was reportedly a dictator when it came to the band, bit like James brown. One mistake you get a warning, two mistakes and start looking for a new band.
Often wish I understood musical theory better as people who do are astonished at his knowledge and inventive audacity.

I really came here to comment as I can see hip hop, rock, blues, folk all down through the list and am planning on working my way through it but don't have the time right now.

Mac and Dev go to High School (Snoop and Wiz)

Still a big fan of Wiz but I remember when this album came out I thought it was the shit!! Can’t believe that was 9 years ago....

The film was pretty trash but still enjoy the album throughly.

My other favourite wiz album/mixtape is Kush and OJ and Taylor Allderdice :) hahaaahahaa (wiz laugh)

Cheers for posting this mate. I’ve not listened to hip-hop for years and this albums quality. Listened to it a few times since I read your post. Any more recommendations are gladly welcome :)

lambsauce

Really glad you enjoyed it mate, I’m going to have to stick it on now!

The older Wiz stuff is so good- Kush and OJ is amazing if you haven’t heard that!!

Love Mac millers stuff, all of it is brilliant but especially “The High Life” mixtape, might have to be a YouTube job and his album “K.I.D.S” :) and “Best Day Ever” album as well!!

Yelawolf- Radioactive is a great album and I love his other stuff too. I will try to come up with some others!

But yeah what an album Mac and Dev is, hard to find stuff that lives up to it in my opinion!!

Mac Miller - Good News

Friends we have some amazing news. Mac Miller will be releasing a posthumous album titled Circles on January 17th. This is single from that new album.

It's almost too much to listen to. Some of the lyrics are so surreal now he has passed. All I know is it's beautiful music and I'm glad I get to hear it. Enjoy.

RIP Mac.

All over the Wu man...Enter the 36 Chambers is in my top 10 of all time and I been listening to hip hop since Kool Moe Dee was a don ha ha...

Mac is one of only a handful of artists in the last 10 years I really rate.

I feel like music as a whole has diluted massively with the proliferation of the internet...it's been good and bad...good is that there are still stacks of dope artists out there... the bad is that you have to sift through sooooo much shit to find gems now...

hope you are good!?!

hope to receive your review on the dank and stealthy postage if interested!

Dunno why this has just popped up in my feed but...

Loved Mac man...so shit, just peaking as it went wrong...

Not into all of his stuff but Of the Soul and Brand Name are two of my top tunes of the last few years and the Circles album was not what I expected but still very good.

Was fucking weird how he had that video of him being buried alive come out not too long before...can't remember the name of that tune but liked that too.

+1

lambsauce

My guy! Saw mac back in 2011 at Shepherd’s Bush, when kook aid and frozen pizza on he told everyone to spark up. Place was smoked out hahaha

he also tweeted me back once when I said “poo” with a casual “that came out of fucking no where man” I couldn’t believe it, bet he was blazed.

Well guys this one's really hard to showcase because he has so many different genres that he does. From metal to classical and everything in-between his music certainly takes you on a ride. If you don't like the first one listen to the second as every song is different.
I'd recommend watching the second video Down below if you're already high and wonder what Disney metal/classical sounds like lol

Oh man it’s the best, I love to get high and make music!
Do you make tunes yourself?

+3

sidetracked

I haven't for a long time but I used to love making beats on FL years ago, simple stuff though. I was thinking about getting a cheap midi keyboard and getting back in to it. Not making lame beats haha, just music.

Is it just a hobby for yourself?

+2

nlxxhz1001

That’s really cool, FL can be a lot of fun. Have you ever tried Reason? (Reason 11 is latest version). If you haven’t, it might possibly be what you’re looking for .
It’s quite intuitive to use and it gives you an almost unlimited bank of seriously powerful sounds to play with.
I like to run it through a daw and mix reason sounds and live instruments.

And yeah, it’s a just a hobby these days. I’m a guitarist first, played in a few bands, was never well known but did ok, have toured and been on radio etc. Looking back now though it all feels like another life. Still love music and being creative though.

+2

sidetracked

Yeah it was awesome back in the day man, I was ready to be the next Dr.Dre or something haha. I have heard of it but never used it, I think I'll have a little peak and see what it can do, thanks.

Ah that's cool man, no one hit wonders? Hey you're probably the most famous person I know then.. sign my chest!? Haha. Yeah I think one of the best things you can do as a human is to create.

+3

funny death

I know I'm not your target for this comment lol but I have made some amazing songs when high, then when I play them back sober, they sound like my 2 year old son wrote it haha

+3

nlxxhz1001

Oh no man, it’s cool. Always a funny moment though, I’ve had a few like that myself.
When I was in my teens I found it hindered creativity so I didn’t really mix the two but as I’ve got older and grown “more In touch with weed” I’ve found it enhances creativity massively or maybe I’m just really damn high but either way, it’s a lot of fun.

+3

funny death

haha I'm still in that "everything seems better with weed" stage. I only smoke like once a month at the moment and my tolerance is literally zero haha. But yes it is very fun

There seems to be quite a few songs with Royce tbh, it's a good album, but i need to have a re-listen myself, as some of the song's are bangers, but others i weren't feeling too much, but as em is a lyricist, the lyrics probably just went over my head.

Still haven't had a chance to listen to it, will put it on just now. Just noticed that actually didn't even look at the track list. Yeah I get that sometimes, also sometimes his rhymes are a stretch. =p

Last night i was just listening to the album on repeat and it's grown on me really quickly. My opinion has definitely changed, at first i thought it was an average album like a 6/6.5/7 out of 10, but now i honestly will give it an 8.5 or a 9. It just keeps getting better tbh.
