Sometimes I happen upon a list of artists in my day-to-day browsing and can just spend the next couple of weeks picking through them. This selection came from a list of trippy music recommendations for psychedelic experiences. While I don’t necessarily agree that they all fit the bill, it just goes to show how differentContinue reading “#634 – Creature Comforts by Black Dice”

I needed a solid album to listen to on the way a Björk show this evening. Not only was this a pretty perfect album for the situation, right down to the perfect play time for the drive, but the show was one of the best concert-going experiences of my life. Quite the prolific evening, allContinue reading “#632 – Man It Feels Like Space Again by Pond”

These guys have a bit of that ‘90s feel that makes me nostalgic for younger, dumber times. Driving around in an old minivan, looking for an opportunity to kill some brain cells, blasting an Alice In Chains cassette. What more could a teenage me want?

Here’s another in a list of artists recommended to me by someone I just met through work. We certainly had a lot to talk about, music aside, but our tastes are so similar I’ll definitely be going back for more suggestions soon.

The more psychedelic bands is listen to the more I discover. I know people aren’t thrilled with Spotify right now, and with good reason, but I’m not sure I would’ve persisted with this blog for so long if it wasn’t for the “people also like…” section. It is a triumph of app design.

It should come as no surprise that two guys as talented as Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak would collaborate on such an amazing album. It is both great material and sounds like it was beamed here from the ‘70s.

When somebody recommends an album to me I can usually guess what genre it will be just based on who suggested it. It’s both surprising and not surprising that most people’s frame of reference is fairly limited and consistent.
