Part 2 of just the old faves from me -- nothing unexpected for those famaliar with many of my favourites. I've just been pulling together some of my absolute faves, most of which don't get much attention except from me. Again please vote for three if you can, or more or less if you like. The voting itself isn't that important to me, but I super-appreciate it when people can find one and more to comment on (even if a negative appraisal of the music). The Soft Machine "Hibou, Anemone and Bear" (Volume Two, 1969) Ennio Morricone "L'arena" (El mercenario 1968, 1969) Message "Dreams and Nightmares (Nightmares)" (From Books and Dreams, 1973) Karl Heinz Schäfer "Couleurs" (Les gants blancs du diable, 1973) Cos "Mein Maschine ist schön" (Babel, 1978) Nina Hagen Band "Naturtrane" (Nina Hagen Band, 1978) Art Zoyd "La Nuit" (Phase IV, 1982) Glenn Branca "The Ascension" (The Ascension, 1981) Dead Can Dance "The Host of Seraphim" (The Serpent's Egg, 1988) Cocteau Twins "The Itchy Glowbo Blow" (Blue Bell Knoll, 1988) Talk Talk "After the Flood" (Laughing Stock, 1991) Controlled Bleeding "Standing in Twilight" (Golgotha, 1991) Mr. Bungle "Pink Cigarette" (California, 1999) Fishmans "Long Season Part 5" (Long Season, 1996) Godspeed You Black Emperor! "Storm" (Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven!, 2000) Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man "Spider Monkey" (Out of Season, 2002) Angels of Light "Star Chaser" (We Are Him, 2007) St. Vincent "Black Rainbow" (Actor, 2009) North Sea Radio Orchestra "Morpheus Miracle Maker" (I a Moon, 2011) Joanna Newsom "Have One on Me" (Have One on Me, 2010) Susanne Sundfor "Silencer" (Ten Love Songs, 2015) Weyes Blood "Wild Time" (Titanic Rising, 2019) Ciśnienie (with Lód 9) "Same Trupy" (The Brass Album, 2020) Sufjan Stevens "Goodbye Evergreen" (Javelin, 2023) Here's the playlist for those who might want to listen (those so inclined might know the ones they had not known from earlier topics). Feel free to critique the music. Here is the first one, which in itself is based on other topics I made (the creative juices are running a bit empty and I mostly listen to non-music things, but these polls reflect well on my current tastes). https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=132909" rel="nofollow - https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=132909 ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Various music I am very into: a youtube playlist with two tracks per act |

| Three of these are so good that I cannot vote for the great Art Zoyd and Dead Can Dance tracks, and there are further good ones, as always, but votes go to After the Flood, Morpheus Miracle Maker, and Same Trupy. (Who'd have thought?) |

Thanks, guys. Obviously I could go for all of these, but choosing three without votes... These are three songs that I could happily listen to again and again and again right now: Nina Hagen Band's "Naturtrane", Mr. Bungle's "Pink Cigarette", and Weyes Blood's "Wild Time". ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Various music I am very into: a youtube playlist with two tracks per act |

At least a dozen I could vote for, so this is rather arbitary (flipping coins...): Nina Hagen Band, Godspeed You Black Emperor! and Ciśnienie ------------- The razamataz is a pain in the bum |

| Went with the tunes by Dead Can Dance & Talk Talk. I like a lot of the artists here - Ennio Morricone, St Vincent, Cocteau Twins, and I quite like Weyes Blood's Titanic Rising - those just aren't my favorite songs by them. |

I have lots of favoured songs from most of the artists, but these are not necessarily my favourites as I was also thinking about what to put in a five year slot (and it's just one per artist for the 48 choices in both polls, so some thought goes into how to represent them based on what I like...). Like Sufjan Stevens, "Chicago" off Illinois would be my choice if just one song now, which would fit in as a 2005-2009 choice as his representative, but I wanted him for the 2020s and I do love the gets bombastic "Goodbye Evergreen". As for Weyes Blood, I prefer the album And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow to Titanic Rising, and "Wild Time" I feel could fit well on that album. I mostly hear about people's love of "Andromeda" from Titanic Rising (the opening is another fave of mine). With Cocteau Twins, I tend to play the earlier albums more. Loads of Morricone I love, but I love Kill Bill and how "l'Arena" is used in that (nice to see a grave bursting scene which does not involve zombies). Glad to hear about what people prefer from these, and would have gone for themselves. I'm giving a vote to Joanna Newsom's "Have One on Me". I've been listening to her a lot of late. By the way, here were my choices for part one: East of Eden "Moth" (Mercator Projected, 1969) Nick Drake "River Man" (Five Leaves Left, 1969) Spirogyra "The Furthest Point" (Bells, Boots and Shambles, 1973) Leonard Cohen "Avalanche" (Songs of Love and Hate, 1971) Far East Family Band "Kokoro" (Parallel World, 1976) Wire "I Should Have Known Better" (154, 1979) Kate Bush "Night of the Swallow" (The Dreaming, 1982) Joy Division "Decades" (Closer, 1980) Camberwell Now "Working Nights" (The Ghost Trade, 1986) Siouxsie & the Banshees "The Sweetest Chill" (Tinderbox, 1986) Swans "Love Will Save You" (White Light From the Mouth of Infinity, 1991) Komeda "Borgo" (Pop pa Svenska, 1993) Cardiacs "Dirty Boy" (Sing to God, 1996) Boards of Canada "Aquarius" (Music Has the Right to Children, 1998) Radiohead "Pyramid Song" (Amnesiac, 2001) Juana Molina "El perro" (Segundo, 2000) Coil "Fire of the Mind" (The Ape of Naples, 2005) Portishead "The Rip" (Third, 2008) William D. Drake "Me Fish Bring" (The Rising of the Lights, 2011) Beach House "Wishes" (Bloom, 2012) Anna von Hausswolff "Discovery" (The Miraculous, 2015) Lingua Ignota "May Failure Be Your Noose" (Caligula, 2019) black midi "Dangerous Liaisons" (Hellfire, 2022) Bruno Pernadas "Step Out of the Light" (Private Reasons, 2022) ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Various music I am very into: a youtube playlist with two tracks per act |
