This is the thread where we post the best music discovery we've made on a given day. Mine for today, the orchestra-infested jazz-pop indie-rock of Lambchop: |

Cool idea for a thread!  Also, I like the track. I would contribute but I haven't discovered anything yet today so maybe next time.

Not necessarily a discovery, as I've heard the Flaming Lips before, but I'm listening to Strobo Trip for the first time, one of the three songs being six hours long ------------- http://bit.ly/1kqTR8y" rel="nofollow">  The greatest record label of all time! |

I listened to Gorguts this morning and although I didn't really care all that much for the songs with singing, the instrumental The Battle of Chamdo was quite nice.

Palefeather. Maybe the scandinavian revelation of 2014. For fans of Pink Floyd and Landberk.  |

And today, I finally listened to Volcano the Bear for the first time. I remember Gazzardian talking about them a couple of years ago, and I made a mental note to check them out. That mental note got lost, and I just regained it when going through the Wayside catalog and ordering one of their CDs. In preparation, I found a youtube playlist containing a full album different from the one I ordered, and listened to it today. They're about as weird as it gets, just what I needed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozFG77mAFN4&list=PL06AC4DFB9975C901" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozFG77mAFN4&list=PL06AC4DFB9975C901 ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

Field Rotation - Acoutstic Tales A great ambient album I discovered today with strong melodies that don't just drift off aimlessly but take you somewhere.

The Field Rotation stuff is real nice. Here's some not too shabby synth pop stuff. |

I don't think I could afford a new discovery each day.  ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |

Today I bought my first Don Cherry record. I'd heard his unique trumpet playing on Robert Wyatt, Carla Bley, and other great musicians' albums, but this was the first time I took the plunge with a full LP with him as leader. It was an impulse buy, I saw a brand new LP copy (double) at a decent price, and it cried out to me to buy it. Very much a pan-ethnic affair, jazz is only a small part of the equation.

Don Cherry I don't know, but you probably know his son Eagle Eye Cherry for his one hit in the 90s, 'Save Tonight'. His daughter Neneh Cherry was a member of Rip Rig + Panic, a band that probably would appeal more to the members here, post-punk with jazz influence.

Just discovered Valentin Stip (or, at least, his upcoming album). Mesmerizing stuff and, while I haven't listened to all of it, I foresee it making my top 10 for this year. Check it out: http://pitchfork.com/advance/349-sigh/" rel="nofollow - http://pitchfork.com/advance/349-sigh/

http://sorne.bandcamp.com/album/house-of-stone-death-i" rel="nofollow - http://sorne.bandcamp.com/album/house-of-stone-death-i Just discovered SORNE. Best I can describe is a tribal/avant feel. Layers of vocals ontop of a sparse use of found and homemade instruments. Think I might go see them live tonight!

I didn't discover this today, but it's my most prominent discovery recently: The Nonesuch Explorer Series. Lots of great authentic folk (or "world" if you insist) musics easily available (it's all on iTunes): |
