What albums did you listen to today?...continued

You're right, let's play some uplifting music instead 

How is that The Knife album Steve? I only have Shaking the Habitual which I love.

Animals

^ I'm liking what I hear, I already heard "How Does It..." on the radio before.

Oh yeah baby! Blackdance
Not that that mlkes any sort of sense really. I rarely come across folks who find interest or indeed attach cool accolades to something like old school berliner schule. The last track though could perhaps entice the more experimental mindes youngins out there with its operatic vocals and slog oozing grandeur. Who knows these days?

Aktuala is really something....if you’re into acoustic music. I adore how they seem to utilise all kinds of endelig instruments from all over and then conjure up this mystical folk music that encompasses most of the world genre-wise.

Me yesterday:
Steven Wilson - Insurgents
Cervello - Melos
Genesis - Nursery Cryme
Calibro 35 - S.P.A.C.E.
Air - 10000 Hz Legend
Popol Vuh - Affenstunde
Lindstrøm & Prins Thomas - ll (danceable electronic with a Krautrock twist)
Rahmann - s/t

Air - 10000 Hz Legend (I can't seem to stop this album from playing) Dungen - Tio Bitar

I first heard his discography in order and still didn't understand the album  I just have a problem with the repetitive singing at the end of part two. It's a shame, what comes before it is wonderful.

I don't know what peter henderson did but those albums are out of this world sounding . some of the most dynamic in prog rock that i have heard.  Yes, indeed!  Now I wanna hear some! Love those Supertramp albums.

Adult Cinema - This is your Life

Brilliant stuff, what I imagine lightbulb sun era porcupine tree would be like with Rick Wright assisting on some vocals
