Zephyr_Nova Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Give examples of debut tracks (first track of an artist's first release) that set the bar extraordinarily high.

Cryptowen Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhdgyJDBnfk not sure if this really counts as a debut song so much as "got popular well before the album dropped so he put what's widely regarded as one of his best tracks first" and seconding fluffy little clouds hardstyle. It's one of those openers that, first time I heard it, I immediately knew this album was gonna send me on a trip all by itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryptowen Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 dubya post cuz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urrbhgC8PB0 i wouldn't call it the high point of bjork's career (homogenic, mah blud), but I will call it one of the funkiest things to come out of the early 90s "harsh digital/vector synth emulation of acoustic sounds" movement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wall Bird Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 lol Saw the title of this thread and knew exactly what song to pick. Opened the thread in a new tab without looking at it and proceeded directly to Youtube to find a copy of '21st Century Schizoid Man' that I could post. Copied the url to the video and clicked on the tab I initially created only to find your entry staring me in the face. Stunned silence. Well done.

This thread started because my friend mentioned that album and my first response was "you really couldn't ask for a better debut song to head off your music career." The more I thought about it, the more I thought that may well be true. But there have been some strong contenders here. Jeff Buckly - Mojo Pin comes damn close. Keep 'em coming.
