The One Song Listening Club
Hello,
I don't know if this has been suggested or done before but here goes:
I sometimes thing it's a little overwhelming to be recommended album after album and band after band, so how about recommending a single song....
Abandon preconceptions and 'things you've read' and decide to engage headphones or otherwise with this one recommendation for the duration of the piece. (I might even suggest, sitting still & closing your eyes and really focusing on the music & not the visual connections).
If this sounds like a good idea - try this one for size - load up your Spotify & give this a go:
Paperback Bible by Lambchop
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyPBI27iL9c
No background, no explanations, just have a listen & then recommend one back.
Good idea?

How about adding a link so the song is one click away?

It's nice to be liked,
But it's better by far to get paid.

Re: The One Song Listening Club
I'm in fucking love with camera obscura right now.
I'll be driving 5 hours to see their "southern" california show next month. Damn Coachella and their exclusivity clause radii!!!

Anyone else notice that the Camera Obscura song copies Embarrassment by Madness?

Wow. This is powerful. Never heard of this band before. I'm on the hunt.moop wrote:http://vimeo.com/9369965
Re: The One Song Listening Club
Yeah, hammock are ace. Their whole take on ambient shoegaze with its kinda 80s sound really takes me back to the first time i heard this mortal coil / blade runner soundtrack etc I'd definitely recommend checking out 'kenotic', (and if you like that the 'raising your voice..' album). I wasnt a fan of the last one, but based on this new track I'm excited about the new album...which should be out next month i think.TheWarmth wrote:Wow. This is powerful.

Springsteen has acknowledged his debt, but this outdoes him several years earlier.
