OT: What are you listening to right now

Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

@Skjoldmose: Thanks for the links! I was definitely familiar with Lust for Life, and had heard "The Passenger," though I didn't know it was Iggy.

Awesome.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

Well, after buying "The Idiot" on Istore, i stumbled upon a song called "Dum Dum Boys" Fantastic!

And to keep it in line with the theme of this thread; I'm currently listening to a song by David Bowie called "Blackout"

I feel.. fired up. sadly it's almost midnight here in Denmark.

EDIT: I was trying to find the live version of the song, which imo is much better. But no luck.
The live performance im talking about is from the album "stage". which funny enough, is a live album.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

WTG, JayGun, for pointing out an Aphex Twin track I don't know. I'd guess it was from his Ambient Works albums, but then again I'm unfamiliar with his recent releases under whatever aliases he's got (I know AFX, but... :shrug:)

As for my own listening pleasure, nothing new recently. I've been listening to the audiobooks of the Dark Tower series by Steven King. So I'll leave you all with a spooky track (that I may have posted before): Dark Thoughts - Donny & DJ E
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

@TRM: Tha is on "Selected Ambient Works 85-92." And good to see you back around here, for sure!

As for me, I've been on a Mass Production kick. I've probably listened to that track 50 times, and it keeps getting better and better. Woo!

Brooklyn Bounce - Best of 2004

Weather is really cold outside (by Melbourne standards anyways :P), so a good bit of mindless electronica is in order. Next up is Steel Meets Steel by Hammerfall.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

Well thanks to Jamesixgun i bought the album "The Idiot". Although I probably haven't been listening to Mass Production 50 times, i've probably been listening to Dum Dum Boys about 107 times.
VERY good song.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

I forgot to mention to you JayGun...

If you really were listening to JCSuperstar, I'd check out the album Peasants, Pigs, & Astronauts by Kula Shaker. More guitar and cynicism, less preachy, almost has an Indian vibe. Title track: Great Hosannah.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

Well, if you guys can find it, try the band Pod People, great band (my friend is the lead guitar).
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

@TRM: if it's Easter, it's Jesus Christ Superstar. And I sing along with all the parts and everything. Good times.

Back when I was a kid, dad went to this fairly far-out church (I tend to refer to it as 'one step away from handling snakes'). One Sunday Ian Gillan (the guy who played Jesus in Superstar on Broadway or whatever) came and told us that all the singers were on drugs and committing adultery and whatnot, and he cried and told us all about the devil and how we were all going to hell unless we repented and gave a bunch of money to the church and all this. And he told us that Superstar was an homage to satan and the boogey-man.

So as soon as I got out from under all that, I went out and bought a copy of Superstar on vinyl. And every Easter (and often on Christmas, even though it makes no sense) I rock Superstar at full volume and dance about and generally worship the ability to sing and dance. Good times.

Later, it was revealed to me that many (non-crazy, miles-away-from-snake-handling) Christians viewed the Superstar in a different light: far from being an homage to satan, as Mr. Gillan claimed, some people actually find the Opera contains a celebration of Christ and faith. Interesting.

I like that Kula Shaker track, TRM. I'll have to check out some more of that.

And now it's back to Mass Production. :punk:
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

Another great song by Iggy Pop.

Neighborhood Threat.

A tad different then the other songs i have been listening to by him. But it's still at great song.

EDIT: And since i'm listening to the "lust for life" album, i'll throw you another one:
Fall in love with me .
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

At the risk of losing at life, what band? :badteeth:

Currently listening to GA's soundtrack. Not as nice as Aria's, but still decent (and a whole 8 hours shorter...). After that, the sound of ice tea being stirred. Haven't listened to that in a long while, but got hungry for it earlier for whatever reason.
 
Re: OT: What are you listening to right now

Yo Skjold: thanks for all the Iggy lately. I'm not too familiar with his oeuvre, but will have to check some out now, for sure. 'Endless Sea' especially. Roxxorz.

And I'm listening to What in the World play in my head. Woo! :punk:

J6G: Well it was thanks to you, that I got around to listen to him again.

And great link btw, Low are one of my favourite albums by Bowie. Although i do enjoy some classics like The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and Diamond Dogs among others.

EDIT:

Here's a very beautiful song from Iggy imo:
Tonight

And the melody in this song, well that just rocks:
I'm Bored
