the last song you played on repeat



Fusion... But hey, we're amongst friends here.

Dude on keys is getting paid by the note.
 


Got helplessly hooked on this after someone posted it on that other forum. Never heard a better Neil Young cover
 
I keep listening to the new Gorillaz song.... I'm a huge fan and "The Happy Dictator" is so good.
 
Hard to believe this is already 13 years old. Played it about three times on the way home from work yesterday to get hyped for chores, dinner, and helping the kids with homework.

 
I watched a documentary about Manguebeat, focused on Chico Science and Nação Zumbi, when I was out of commission last week. So that inspired me to listen to this LP for my first hike of the year to get back in the swing of things. This song in particular I put on repeat.

i've had this 45 since it came with the album last year, but I am now hard-repeating it as walking around music. I think it surpasses the album, which is also good. this one's like... a toots & the maytals funky reggae intermixed song but with a mittoo organ lead instead of toots singing.
 
i didn't expect to be listening to Waka today! damn, he had a real run there for awhile...

i've been listening to this demo from the last Panda Bear album a lot:
 
New Soft Rock For Hard Times release from Linda & Norm, out now on Universal Cave ( :

An 80s-leaning guitar pop version of the beautiful “Moments To Want You” (originally from 1981). For the psych bedroom pop & dusty AOR heads. With dubs from Sydney favorites DD Mirage and seasoned producer Justin Van Der Volgen.

 
Coincidence! That Larry Ellis has been in my life a lot the past few months.

I've been working on editing a short film, set in the 1870s or 1880s kinda range, and in the absence of composed music when I started, I was in need of some clean organ stab sound effects (a kid messes with a church organ at the beginning) and a danceable beat (said kid gets in a jig-battle with her sunday school teacher, as a last ditch attempt to prove she's possessed by the devil and should be sent home). I didn't want to download some awful pipe organ samples or traditional folkdancing music as placeholders so I imported Funky Thing and used it as a beat for the dance and clean organ chords at the beginning. Just so that there was something to work with for the time being.

When the director wanted to see what I'd gotten done so far I just kinda left it in and went "OK I know this is an insane music choice, so just disregard that, I just did it for tempo". She loved it, haha. Her composer is cooking up something, possibly along the same lines (!!), but till that's recorded I've been listening to Black Hammer repeatedly as I tweak the dance scene.

Also, around the same time all this is going on, I read some of Frank's memoir/blog which mentioned playing the intro to this track in total blackout till the beat drops. I wonder if I'll hear it in an ad next, just to make me think the universe is conspiring with me. I am fortunate that this is the conspiracy the universe settled on cause it's such an incredible track. That fuckin bassline!
