|
What are you listening to these days? I'm always on the look-out for new music (at least new to me), so some music suggestions please!
To give you an idea of some of the stuff I already have and like: Interpol, Pulp, Rage Against the Machine, Cowboy Junkies, Gorillaz, Happy Mondays, Tool, LCD Soundsystem, Audionbullys, Sublime, Violent Femmes, Feelers, Muse, Nick Cave, Rage Against the Machine, REM, Chilli Peppers, Nirvana, Charlatans, Smashing Pumpkins, Shihad, Killers, Pixies, White Stripes, Filter, Nine Inch Nails, Live, Belle and Sebastian, Datsuns, The Cure...
Thanks!  |

I spot a kiwi, kia ora! "Feelers", "Shihad", "Datsuns" was a bit of a give away.
May I recommend another kiwi band from Wellington called "Fat Freddies Drop" which you've probably heard about. They have a full album out now which is incredible, called "Based on a True Story" and is sublime fusion of reggae, dub, funk, soul, jazz, and futuristic electronica.
Also "Nesian Mystic" from Auckland, top class hip hop/RnB with strong polynesian flavours. |

| To everyone I recommend two post-Graceland Paul Simon albums that were sinfully ignored. "Rhythm of the Saints" and "Songs from The Capeman". A true genius of the music world still at the peak of his powers. |

| Find everything by Neutral Milk Hotel and DJ Shadow's(with the Quannum Projects MCs) live set on BBC Radio 1. It's absolutely brilliant. |

Nope, not a kiwi! Did date a kiwi last summer though and liked some of his music so that's where all of the above came from! I'll definitely check out your suggestions.

A dig into the past is essential, OP. So many forgotten gems. Try these:
The Zombies - A rose for Emily (60s, melodic)
The Ruts - Babylon's burning (UK Punk, 1979)
The Damned - Neat, neat, neat (UK Punk, 1977)
Kraftwerk - Tour de France (techno, 1982)
Pink Floyd - Let there be more light (dark Psychedelic, 1968) |
