a mastercard comercial (i think) ruined no. 1 for me.

but they're all fantastic

Agreed. 1 is classic, but 3 is my favorite I think.

The first one is obviously classic but #3 is probably my favourite. And also:

Really nice. Thanks for sharing, only listened to a little bit of Mixmaster E Satie prev

 

Sounds like Rezzo listened to these a fair bit before/during writing the Fragile...

 

O wait it was just this: Astrology: Trent REZNOR, born 1965/05/17, Astrology: Erik SATIE, born 1866/05/17. Google you crazy cat.

don't know which one to pick, always find Satie's music magical

best 39 seconds ever. about 7,000 ideas going on there!

[Berk]

Bump

 

These 3 tracks are just literally perfect. There's no note I don't agree with, I love every single second of it, magical. Cheers.

 

And that surrealist art in the youtube links fits perfectly, love it

On the pleasing, melancholic melody front I prefer Debussy over Satie. The first gymnopedie piece seems to get used in every film, it gets cheesy.

[Nil]

Huge Satie fan, and I'd say I prefer Gymnopédie 1, as it was my introduction to his music. From all the interpretations I've listened to, Entremont and Varsano's are my fav ones.

gnossiennes 1-6

[eh Speedy]

I have those Debussy orchestrations of 1 and 3 (like come on dude you could have just finished the job?) and they are pretty great but I'm not really liking just that one recording I have. I've heard others that were better. It's Cleveland Orchestra conducted by Louis Lane. something missing there.
