true it was 2011. i apologies for my error.

[Franciscus]

After downloading few from the lists I'd say Atom TM's Winterreisse and Ital's Hive Mind are some of my favorites now. I need to start paying attention to Planet Mu also, I guess.

 

Also nobody mentioned senking's Dazed? I noticed I had missed that too and got it also. Pretty good.

Try the more ambient one by AtomTM: Cold Memories. It's amazing. http://www.discogs.com/Atom-Cold-Memories/release/3352443

[gmanyo]

fuck how do you guys listen to/afford that much music?

 

All I've got is Death Grips - The Money Store. I guess R.I.P. gets #2 by default.

 

I guess lately I've been listening to a ton of Youtube hipster chillwave stuff, like hundredollars and Daytime Television and bodygod, so I haven't been listening to albums as much, or really any music on legit record labels.

[Guest futuregirlfriend]

Drape Me in Velvet by Musette is a nice one that I haven't seen mentioned.

i am serious

[Ivan Ooze]

i am serious

Most of these albums take an enormous amount of time to sink and understand with me well lucky you

what's the best one you heard this year??

[Redruth]

i'm still continuing to understand more about them with every listen, as i do with any musics, new or old. music is like anything else, the moment you say you know everything there is to know about it, is the moment you fall.

 

i can't pick the favorite. those are my favorites

no love for parastrophics?

 

I'm surprised in you!

[chenGOD]

Some people just have a different idea of what favorite means lol.

[Hugh Mughnus]

oh for sure, I just meant like.... judging on going back and forth with him in the "rate the music the person above you is listening to" thread I thought parastrophics would have been right up his alley!

 

[Redruth]

no love for parastrophics?

 

i've been wanting to make time to listen to 'parastrophics' and have continuously forgotten. i've also forgotten to mention the 'mohn' which i've enjoy quite a bit. as i've mentioned, given the sheer volume of music that i filter through, it is sure that there are several musics that were misplaced or forgotten.

 

if i was contractually obligated to pick favorite this very moment, i would choose r.i.p

I hope you are able to make time for it and hope that you enjoy it.

 

I'll give r.i.p a listen based on your recommendation.

 

Cheers!
