Haven't really listened to the posted songs yet, so I cannot be of much help for advice. My two nominated tracks are: Tindersticks - The Bough Bends and
Anthony Joseph - Swing Praxis. |

The Dream Syndicate one is my preference, but then I like that kind of moodiness. It is much more in in my wheelhouse than the Counting Crows, which is not nearly so much to my taste. |

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

^^^^ Can anyone advise me? I will definitely post Bersani's song but I am undecided between Counting Crows and The Dream Syndicate.

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

^ Thank you, Greg! It isn't easy to make a decision because these two songs are musically similar to a certain degree (downtempo, female/male vocals), also in terms of mood. Maybe I should rather choose one of Aquaserge's instrumental pieces instead. Let's see.

Each I enjoy very much in its own way, but still I favour the Aquaserge and Brandão Faber Hunger tracks. |

Thanks a lot George, I haven't heard any blues here for a while now; a cool choice! But what I like most about this poll here are the accompanying stories. So thank you for yours as well! We could have done with some more people, though but it is still enjoyable the way it is. :)

I've got one more. There's a sports complex a couple of miles from where I live that boasts one of the largest collections of synthetic all weather turf in the nation with 12 full size fields for sporting tournaments from youth to college. It's operated by my county's Park and Recreation department. This year they added hosting live music concerts, accommodating up to 7,000. All acts so far have not spurred my interest but upcoming next month is southern rock jam band Gov't Mule. I realize this style probably doesn't have much interest here, but if my work isn't heavy then, I will be checking it out as I have been a fan for quite some time and have never seen them live.
Their latest album from November 2021 is their first "all blues" album in their 25+ years of existence with a mix of covers and originals. This is a cover of a Tom Waits song. Gov't Mule - Make It Rain Edited by mathman0806 - September 18 2022 at 18:58 |

of the suggested piece? Lorenzo Counting Crows: Elevator Boots Samuele Bersani: La ruciu de lu mare The Dream Syndicate: My Lazy Mind Which two are your nominations? Kees Tindersticks: The Bought Bends or My Sister Anthony Joseph: Swing Praxis Which of the two Tindersticks tracks do you prefer? George Primus: Conspiranoia Would you like to nominate another track? Greg Stereolab: Sun Demon Anna von Hausswolff: The Truth, The Glow, The Fall Sam Miss Lava: Sleepy Warm Moura: Baile do dentón Mila Brandão Faber Hunger: Derfi di hebe Marc Ribot’s Ceramic Dog: Bertha the Cool Aquaserge: Un grand sommeil noir > Not sure which two I shall nominate. Any suggestions? > There is still time until the voting period begins, so if anyone is still interested, feel free to join us! Edited by Mila-13 - September 18 2022 at 16:29 |

^ Thank you for reminding me of Anthony Joseph! I sometimes tend to forget about the not nominated artists and also in that poll there were quite a few participants. I think Joseph was my favourite of yours at the time. Enjoy and have fun! -It's great to hear about this jazz festival in Perpignan. I find smaller festivals often more exciting because you can discover new interesting artists and the atmosphere is more relaxed. During my summer holidays in Southern France I used to attend Jazz à Juan and the Nice Jazz Festival but nowadays you see only old familiar names in their line-ups. I wonder who is in charge of programming there. Despite this, I always wanted to attend Jazz à Marciac, at least once. I hope it happens one day, it's not that close from Nice, though. Have you been there?

A next one from me is another one that I'm going to see soon, 29 September: Anthony Joseph. A poet, writer, jazzman... and socially and politically very committed. I already presented him in the IA Talk Talk poll with a track that got some fair radio play last year on my preferred radio station. Now I got the chance to see him in concert thanks to the jazz festival Jazzèbre, in Perpignan (France). Here is another track from his latest album: Anthony Joseph - Swing Praxis: And here a live track from a performance last year: Anthony Joseph - Maka Dimweh (Jazz à la Villette, 2021): |

I'm compensating for the lack of concerts in the last two years, I'll probably reach 50 concerts this year. Since we're proving our attendance, my first maskless concert was recorded for a music video and I appear somewhere in the audience. It felt insanely good to be able to rock out again  Probably my favourite album this year and the best concert of the Psych Rock festival I went to (for which I had my ticket since 2020). It was really cool to see traditional percussion and bagpipes after so many bands with just guitar/bass/drums I wish I had made this track, a much better krautfolk attempt than mine.

@ Christian
Aquaserge are pretty good live. They are fresh and energetic and thus rocked the audience! As for my other choices, I have already introduced a couple of less know artists here whose concerts I have attended this year. I have one or two more in store, but I think that they are not quite what you guys are after. lol
I find Matmos quite amazing! Thanks for introducing them. Their first piece is quite accessible although they are very experimental. This rhythm is really infectious and makes me wanna dance! - I struggle a bit with the Neubauten piece, though. The lyrics save the whole thing for me to some extent. But since the sound quality of the live is not the best (or is it rather Blixa's a bit unclear pronunciation?) I listened to the studio version as well. Either way, I think that a lyrics translation would be helpful for people who don't understand German. - I found this, but I think it is a google machine translation. here Edited by Mila-13 - September 18 2022 at 03:42 |

I must admit I don't know Dream Syndicate yet. I love that Aquaserge album though and would be very keen on seeing them.

Up next (No.3)
Aquaserge: Un grand sommeil noir (Album: A Possibility of a New Work for Aquaserge, 2021)
There is a cultural centre in the industrial area of my hometown, where I hang out quite frequently. That’s where I attended a gig of this quite amazing French avant-rock band, back in June. Some here will already know them, I guess. But as far as I can remember, I don't think that the band has appeared in the polls recently. - Another band who’s concert I’ve attended in August, at another venue in my city, I’ve introduced in Nicks ‘2022 Favourites’ poll. It's this Istanbul-based band Lalalar. Edited by Mila-13 - September 15 2022 at 15:47 |

^ Indeed, the idea of this poll is, among other things, to inspire people to take a look at the concert calendar again, after a long time.- On the youtube channel of your Taranta Festival there is a playlist including videos of individual performances from the 2022 Festival. Maybe you could choose one of those instead of the full concert one above? ;) Notte della Taranta 2022
Btw. I had very young parents, they were students when I was born. They took me with them almost everywhere; that is one of the dearest memories of my childhood! :) Edited by Mila-13 - September 15 2022 at 15:40 |
