I've been studying Indian music (sitar specifically) for going on 9 years now. This is my teacher's teacher, and the founder of our style of sitar, Ustad Vilayat Khan. I consider him to be the most accomplished player of all time. But I suppose I am a bit biased. Just unparalleled ability though...

Yeah, might not be SC again but Im sure he'll find an avenue for getting more unreleased works out there

Damn I wish my chinchilla was that dank. Shes such a normie

SOR2 might be my favorite soundtrack. It's up there at least.

best album 2014
and 2015
and 2016
^This. I'm more excited to hear the next LP in this series than just about anything.
-
Havent listened to any past 13 yet, but 7 and 12 have been my favorite so far. Im lucky enough to be able to throw on headphones at my work for 3-4 hours of the day, which has been a godsend for digesting these and the soundclouds.
-
I love when DANK MEMES and TWIN PEAKS are right next to each other.
Edit: Shit I ruined it!

To go back to my 'alternate ICBYD' idea, I always viewed 19 ssnb (or ssba) as an alternate of Mookid. That lonely "waaaaoooowwww" synth is in both of em.
-
Listening to a lot of this today. Man 19 ssnb is just beautiful. Real gem of a track - crazy to think he had just been sitting on it all these years.
-
Yeah, Rough Beat Tune is magical. Gotta be my favorite as well. I've been toying around with the idea of making a sort of alternate version of ICBYD usinh the SC tracks. We certainly have a ton from that time period, and many of them seem almost like paralells to tracks from that album.

It's from the arcade version:

I want this game so bad...looks like endless fun. First Pikmin 3, then Smash, now Mario Maker. I almost need to get a Wii U now
-
Just curious,but what happened to the ayahuasca thread? Was it all just a hallucination?
-
If it is gonna be an album, I'm so happy Rough Beat Tune is on there. It's long been my favorite of the whole lot.

I'm a newcomer to cannabis and got extremely high last night then listened to music including Krakow (or was it Utrecht, fuck if I know)
I kept thinking "Holy shit this is so granular. It's granular. Holy fuck listen to those grains" and I heard the music as if it was made of grains of sound, only the AE soundboard in particular though none of the other music I listened to (Geogaddi, Shpongle - Nothing is Lost, Venetian Snares - Hospitality)
Just a very transcendental mental experience for me I've never heard anything like this musically. This was the second time I've been high on weed now. Amateur ya forgive me, OMG it was amazing to hear it's like I knew sean and rob's secrets after hearing those grains "Holy fuck these grains, I can hear each individual one and even the space between them"
lol
I know exactly what you mean with the grains! I hear them too, especially stoned haha. Also great call on Nothing Lasts, one of the greatest 'journey' albums ever. Not to mention mindblowing with drugs.

Hank: "Well, how about guilt for censoring your best thoughts? Your most honest, primitive, real thoughts" -Naked Lunch (1991)
My favorite novel of all time. The film is quite good as well!
-
I think Pitch Black and Livewire should be swapped in that Mtn Dew chart. The rest I agree with
-
The main melody in Rotate Electrolyte is one of the most beautiful things he's written. I wish I could write melodies like that
-
Hey pretty much did with the MACHROMT3a single!
-
In Sides did it for me as well. The Girl with the Sun in Her Head still stands as one of the most sublime pieces of electronic music I've ever heard. Just pure timeless magic. But now I'm off topic too hahaFunny to see so many people falling in love with techno to In Sides. Happened to me too round 96 or 97. Again, funny.
To me, it is one of the best albums I have ever heard. The composition and flow is just amazing. And it still sounds quite fresh today. It is a huge shame what happened to Orbital after that. But I am off topic.

I can pretty accurately trace my braindance roots if I think about it. It all began with the game Rez for PS2. When I was younger it was the coolest shit in the world. Still is, honestly! I was obsessed with it and downloaded the soundtrack, which got me onto Ken Ishii, who had my favorite track in the game. I got a couple of his other albums and then dug through some related recommendations and got into Orbital, Underworld, some psytrancey things like Infected Mushroom & Hallucinogen (which spawned my other true musical love, Shpongle, but that's another story).
Eventually I got my hands on a CD of Squarepusher's Hard Normal Daddy from a local record shop, and it was a massive eye-opening experience. I couldn't explain how much I loved the music, it was so fucking insane and noisy and complex and perfect and beautiful. I listened to that album countless times. Later I moved my way through his catalog until I got to Go Plastic and my brain just exploded. I didn't even know music like that existed! So at that point I was ravenous for more and started looking through other Warp artists.
I think my first experience with Autechre was the Gantz Graf video on that Warp music video DVD, got it off Netflix (back before streaming was even an option on there). Got Draft and Confield after that, I remember it still took a while before I was actually a full-on Autechre fan. Just so much to wrap your head around on those records. Of course I think they're flawless now. :) Was also around that time I joined WATMM and went crazy for all this music! Fast forward to 2015 and there's never been a better time to be a fan. :) Life is good

My bad, the Plug track samples this (at the very beginning):

The Outkast track samples Miles Davis.

From an Indian musician's perspective, Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat is actually great raga form. It sounds alien compared to most other Indian music but really it does follow the same melodic structure (Minus the drums and basslines obviously).
