I've been consciously loading my mp3 player with albums that are highly rated on PA. I started with the top 250 overall (that I own, which comes up to about a third of them) and then started on highly rated albums in each genre. This project is far from completed, but out of 1038 tracks, these ten came up.
Peter Gabriel -- More Than This
Magma -- Kobaia Iss De Hundin
Pink Floyd -- Pigs (Three Different Ones)
Tangerine Dream -- Movements of a Visionary
Gentle Giant -- His Last Voyage
Banco Del Mutuo Succorso -- Ed Oro Lo Domando Tempo Al Tempo
Pink Floyd -- Any Colour You Like
Peter Hammill -- The Lie (Bernini's Saint Theresa)
Soft Machine -- The Floating World
Refugee -- Someday

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - 'Relative Ways' (Indie-Rock)
Opeth - 'Master's Apprentices' (Tech/Extreme Prog-Metal)
Ulver - 'Your Call' (Listed on here as Post-Rock but really Electronic...)
Isis - 'Backlit' (Post-Metal)
Meshuggah - 'Combustion' (Tech/Extreme)
Pelican - 'Bliss In Concrete' (Post-Metal)
Strapping Young Lad - 'Detox' (Industrial Thrash, sort of)
Mogwai - My Father, My King' (Post-Rock)
Glassjaw - 'Radio Cambodia' (Post-Hardcore?)
Hell Is For Heroes - 'One Of Us' (Rock)
I suppose that's a 3-4, the artists are all unrelated but the mix isn't as eclectic as I thought it would be

Almost filled my 80gig Ipod, with 8500 tunes from 1250 albums, so in theory more weird eclectism???? Here goes:
Beyond The Bridge: Gambale, Hamm, Smith (ex. Show Me What You Can Do)
Rambler: Ginger Baker Trio (ex. Going Back Home)
Sweet Bite: George Duke (ex. My Soul)
Mutoid man : Ozone Quartet (ex.Nocturne)
Ride A Pony: Free (ex. Highway)
Heyday: Nucleus (ex. Snakehips Etecera)
Oysterjungle: Secret Oyster (ex. Sea Son)
Oregon: Ghost Beads (ex.The Essential oregon)
Madness: Adrian Belew (ex. Side One)
Elergy: Jeff Beal (ex. Liberation)
Oh dear, 7 from ten I would say were jazz rock fusion tracks.......odd, this morning had 5 consequetive tracks which were blues, followed by modern flamenco. Sometime wonder about how 'shuffle' play is achieved on an IPod - it's never quite as random as I think.
Got to reset the shuffle: and here's the result:
Checking Out: Allan Holdsworth (ex. IOU)
Bird On A Wire: Leonard Cohen (ex. Songs From A Room)
Night Illusion: Gong (ex. Gauzeuse)
Tiger Feet: Mud (ex. Greatest Hits) - whoops
Compared To What: Les McCann/Eddie Harris (ex. Swiss Movement)
Divisions: Fire Merchants (ex. Fire Merchants)
Good Day Good Morning: Odyssey (ex. White Swan)
Mille Vagues: Nguyen Le (ex. Million Waves)
Bitter Suite: Marillion (ex. Misplaced Childhood)
SF Sorrow Is Born: Pretty Things (ex. SF Sorrow)

My iPod really only has about half of my library, it's way too small for me.
Pavement - Trigger Cut / Wounded-Kite at :17 (Indie Rock) The Fall of Troy - Semi-Fiction (Heavy Prog) Joy Division - 24 Hours (Post-punk) Protest the Hero - Blindfolds Aside (Progressive Metalcore) Neu! - Weissenssee (Krautrock) Rush - Something For Nothing (Heavy Prog) Porcupine Tree - Remember Me Lover (Heavy Prog) Phish - Guyute (Jam Rock) The Flower Kings - Dream On Dreamer (Symphonic Prog) My Bloody Valentine - Blown a Wish (Shoegaze) That didn't really come out as varied as I'd have liked it to. Not to mention that its 40% non-prog. I'm not sure. I'd say 3* Edited by hours_of_wealth - October 04 2009 at 08:56 |

Here we go:
1. Executive Dive - The Dicks (punk)
2. Wake Up - Nomeansno (punk/prog?)
3. When I See That Girl of Mine - The Kinks (classic rock)
4. Losers, Boozers, and Heroes - fIREHOSE (indie rock)
5. Sea Shell and Soft Stone - Ron Geesin/Roger Waters (avant garde / psych)
6. On the Tundra - Guided by Voices (indie rock)
7. Steve Instant Newman - The Melvins (indie rock/metal)
8. Cameage - Descendents (punk)
9. Sinner - Judas Priest (metal)
10. Sagittarius Silver Announcement - Flaming Lips (indie rock)
Where's the prog? OK, second round:
1. I'm Down - Love (psych)
2. Just a Job to Do - Genesis (pop/prog)
3. Flippin' the Bird - Sun City Girls (avant garde/jazz)
4. You Are Too Far From Me - R. Stevie Moore (indie rock - did that exist in the 70s? If so, Moore was probably one of the few in that class)
5. The Kitten Song - Steven Wright (comedy)
6. Twin - Steven Wright (comedy)
7. Drum Factory - Fred Frith (avant garde/prog)
8. Heartattack in a Layby - Porcupine Tree (prog)
9. Only Time Will Tell - Earth and Fire (prog)
10. At Sixes - Soft Machine (jazz/fusion/prog)
The genres were just grudgingly assigned by me, but the first list is clearly punk-centric, which was a surprise. Lots of "indie rock" on both too. Interesting observation - a lot of the actual running time on my iPod (over 14,000 songs) could be called prog, but those songs are generally longer than the punk stuff, so there are probably a lot more punk selections to choose from - thus a random shuffle would be more likely to pick from that pool. Perhaps?
I'll give these lists a collective "3". Edited by HolyMoly - November 30 2009 at 07:29 |
