  1. I think I'm gonna have enough music to search here to last me the rest of the year :music::yeah:

     

     

    And holy hell, Angelic Process is heavy and at the same time, absolutely beautiful... the heavy sludgy parts remind me of a faster Electric Wizard... or maybe I just haven't listened to them in years and my brain is a bit foggy.

     

     

    yeah dude they're fucking great

  2. Asobi Seksu's great stuff... I kinda hear what your saying about M83, I only really listen to them in small infrequent doses, but I do like the first 2 albums. I haven't looked into the newer stuff at all

  3. LSD and the Search for God

     

     

    Écailles de Lune is just beautiful, one of the best albums of 2010

     

     

    I've been meaning to look into them... Someone was praising them up to me a few weeks ago. And seconding Écailles de Lune, I was blasting that album in my car yesterday.

  4. Get Souvlaki by Slowdive.

    This and My Bloody Valentine are pretty much essential ^

     

    Also get:

     

    Asobi Seksu - Citrus

    Amusement Parks On Fire - Out Of Angels

    Bardo Pond - Ticket Crystals and Batholith

    Caribou - Up In Flames

    Dawn Chorus Ignites - Glimmer EP

    Depreciation Guild - Spirit Youth

    Have A Nice Life - Deathconciousness

    The Zephyrs - When The Sky Comes Down It Comes Down On Your Head

     

    for more synth-gaze stuff M83, and Jatun are pretty consistent artists

  5. Recently finished House of Leaves by Mark Z Danielewski which I reccommend a different and occasionally difficult read but very worth it. Now I'm kinda very slowly making my way through Jean Paul Sartre's Nausea and The Devil In The White City by Erik Larson... Also re-reading through all my old Spawn comics lately for kicks.

  6. Playing Draft 7.30 and Quaristice in the back at restaraunt I used to work for one day, one of the cooler guys who worked out on the line would come in the back and go up front again while setting up for the day. He came in every so often between orders in the slower early morning as the albums progressed on play. Each time he'd pause and listen for a minute and make a really perplexed face... his comment at first was "Whoa... what is this?" then eventually to "Things don't normally make these sounds", "Are they sampling a train?" and "What is this now, that's kinda creepy" ... He listened to some electronic music before but never really anything even half as experimental as Autechre. I think he kinda dug it, but still didn't really understand it fully.

  7. I was kind of a slacker/stoner with the cool cd collection I always had in my backpack and usually always had my headphones with me whether listening to them or not. I was known for being pretty witty and outspoken with a good sense of humor, and made people laugh a lot. I was always getting nagged by teachers and school counselors who knew I was smarter than my grades reflected, I just never really applied myself cause I was extremely apathetic and knew most of it was useless info, I wouldn't use later on. I mingled quite a bit and had friends in every crowd, but never really had one I belonged to completely cause I stayed kinda distant, I wrote off most of my classmates as being pretentious, assholes, or just immature and dumb. I probably could have been better with the ladies, but I wrote a lot of them off as bitches, or was too shy to make any advances. I was stoned pretty much constantly my senior year, even teachers were aware but no one seemed to care cause I was the funny lovable stoner.

  8. I love me some dubstep... However I like the deeper more atmospheric stuff. Not to say I hate the grime and wobbles. But it does seem the scene has become over-saturated. A lot of producers out there lack real understanding of where the DUB in dubstep comes from and it's become all about the "OMGSOFILTHY" wobble wankery, I call brostep. I think it's becoming harder to find among the seas of amateur producers, which I think many newcomers to the scene get jaded by, and therefore dismiss the genre. There are more than a handful of decent artists out there though, making quality stuff. Hyperdub, Hemlock, and Planet-Mu are putting out some consistently good stuff on their labels.
