I'm focusing on relatively recent music
Sinner Get Ready is my Favorite, but you got this and Weyes Blood already. The Necks. Oh man I love pretty much their full discography. For your playlist, I guess my favorite song of the year Signal should be the one... but it could be just about any. Like this Other than that I think I got Greg Foat. For reccomended listening I'd suggest Symphonie Pacifique and The Mage for starters. This song is quite unrepresentative, but I love it so much: ...and Black Midi has taken me by storm, but I know you know them well. But as they're not known for their beauty, I think this represent that side of them well: I've become a bit of an King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard obsessive too. This is both a highlight and quite representative: I could, maybe should have added Swans, but as for a single album I've must have played this album like fifty times since i discovered her. Her only album is my favorite album. Loner folk they call it: -and Joni, always Joni. I think this has to be my favorite song of hers (but my favorite album is probably Hejira or I don't know. It's all so wonderful from debut to Mingus) If I'm being honest, Ahmad Jamal is probably my most played artist. Favorite album is probably The Awakening, but this might just be my favorite tune of his: |

Similar to some other topics, but I like to hone in on specifics (more detail oriented than some). What are seven (or less) acts that you have been very into over say the last 12 months, and what are your favourite albums by the band, and please mention one, just one hard though that may be, track from each band/artist your mention for me to try to add to a youtube playlist. So this does not get too video heavy, please just type the name of the song or mention it and provide a url link -- preferably to youtube for the playlist. I was going to mention some others, but then since I want to do a playlist, seven tracks per person seems more than enough especially as I want to listen to other people's choices and I hope various others would like to check out music as well. All of mine I have brought up before, which saves some people some time if they wanted to check out my suggestions (and most of those who would want to probably already have). - Swans. Over the last couple of years I have been so into Swans. It's hard to choose one album. I have been very into most from 1987's Children of God up until this years The Beggar. Soundtracks for the Blind, Children of God, The Glowing Man and To Be Kind might be my most listened to albums over the past couple of years. There are many tracks that I would like to mention, but I will go with "Helpless Child" instead of one of the much longer ones ("The Glowing Man", "The Beggar Lover (Three)" and "Bring the Sun / Toussaint L'Ouverture" are awesome imo) or "A Piece of the Sky". "Helpless Child" off Soundtracks for the Blind (1996): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NOc1Gnu18I - Boards of Canada. I have been listening to this Scottish band (duo) a lot recently. I enjoy various albums, but it is Music Has the Right to Children that I have played the most. As a track I was thinking about going with "Everything You Do Is a Balloon", but I will instead go with "Aquarius" which was a song choice of mine for the latest Interactive Poll. "Aquarius" off Music Has the Right to Children (1998) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRcr5hYCxh0 - Weyes Blood. Titanic Rising was my favourite album of hers, but now I favour And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow. I also like Front Row Seat to Earth. I was thinking about going with "Grapevine" off And in the Darkness..., "Wild Time" off Titanic Rising, and some others, but I will go with "Do You Need My Love" off Front Row Seat to Earth (2016). I like the song and I get a kick out of the video -- dat bear! "Do You Need My Love" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml_sZOWY6yU - Portishead: I love all their albums (all three studios plus live). I'm going with "The Rip" off Third (2008) (the best Third other than Soft Machine's ;)) as my song choice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBOaLjtR4mw - Anna von Hausswolff: I love Ceremony, The Miraculous and Dead Magic, and I like her Live at Montreaux album. Each of those studio albums has been my favourite. The Miarculous may be the one I have played the most despite it generally not being valued quite as highly as those others from what I have seen. Anyway, my choice of track will be "Ugly and Vengeful" off Dead Magic (2018). It still gives me chills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp2VfPAhnOY - Lingua Ignota. I was introduced to her music thanks to a forum topic at PA. This music had a profound effect on me. I value highly both Caligula and Sinner Get Ready particularly (as well as All Bitches Die). My choice of song is "May Failure Be You Noose" off Caligula (2019). Powerful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbZbP8ijS54 (F word warning if playing at Sunday School). - Chelsea Wolfe. I love her albums Apokalypsis, Pain is Beauty, Abyss and Hiss Spin. Pain is Beauty and Abyss are my most listened to. For a song I will go with an early standout for me with "Reins" from Pain Is Beauty (2013). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgcrbE2nzUA So please mention up to seven acts, and please try to mention a favourite album and track from each act. Here is the playlist starting with my seven tracks from seven acts . Your choices as well as comments on any other people's selections in the topic are appreciated.
