Capsaicin Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 He makes some great music. Big fan of Bad Timing, Insignificance, Eureka, and Halfway to a Threeway. Haven't quite gotten into his stranger stuff, but it's nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Don't know much about him but would like to learn more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Apeofnaples Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I love what he does whether it's on a laptop or guitar. BAD TIMING is a gem, EUREKA is an oddball classic and The VISITOR is just lovely. His drone work is fabulous too ~ SPIRITS NEVER FORGIVE and FLAT WITHOUT A BACK are dark classics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfh4tEDUIYo&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perunamuusi Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Don't know much about him but would like to learn more. Don't bother... you wouldn't like him. He is a humungous pile of shit just like pavement. also: gastr del sol - camofleur [drag city 1998] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taphead Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 "I'm happy, I'm singing and a 1,2,3,4" and his work in fenn o'berg should really be heard by all fans of experimental electronic music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest abusivegeorge Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Yeah I've made a couple of threads about Jim O'Rourke in the past, my mothers favourite song ever is women of the world. Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YEK Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 it's been forever since i listened to i'm happy i'm singing.. i just did, very good. what else should i get from him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taphead Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 if you're in the mood for something completely different, the albums that are named after nicholas roeg movies (eureka, insignificance, and bad timing) are all pretty great. check the youtube posted above from eureka. I think that's the album of those three I'd recommend first. if you want more computery stuff and haven't heard his collaborations with fennesz and pita, check out fenn o'berg - the return of fenn o'berg.

modey Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 ok so i went out and bought eureka and insignificance on vinyl after hearing some youtube clips, impressive as fuck! i love the artwork too. edit: i think this may be the beginning of a talk talk scale obsession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest the anonymous forumite Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Nobody mentionned his work with Gastr Del Sol ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSVhIaU2Kj0 Loose Fur is pretty good too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHTkTBqvPnQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest futuregirlfriend Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Nobody mentionned his work with Gastr Del Sol ? also: gastr del sol - camofleur [drag city 1998] i've completely neglected checking out gds, or any of his projects besides fenn o'berg and loose fur. original silence look like they could be quite interesting.

spptrl alt del Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Nobody mentionned his work with Gastr Del Sol ? also: gastr del sol - camofleur [drag city 1998] i've completely neglected checking out gds, or any of his projects besides fenn o'berg and loose fur. original silence look like they could be quite interesting. upgrade & afterlife is a good introduction (for gastr del sol), it's varied and great. i like the balance between the "song" parts and the more unfettered drone/music concrete/minimal stuff on it. camofleur may be an 'easier' album, but it's also top-quality. the original silence albums are (i believe) improvised, and are heavier, rockier forms of music.
