Soundscape Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Thanks again! Didn't even know about groovelands, just snagged me the Metrical CD and the Nirmana FLAC. Your next selction was the first time I'd heard (the much hyped) Death Grips too. Reminds me of Lightning Bolt... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efSwcRW1X-Y Cheers No worries. Hey, this is my first time listening to Lightning Bolt. Crazy stuff
progladyte Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Definately 'prog' of some kind! I just can't warm up to Steve Vai. He's just too 'clinical' with no real 'feel' in his playing, sound! But that's only my take (coming from a 70's classic rock background)! He's definitely an acquired taste there Surf. I find some of his work exceptionally brilliant, other times it's pretty lame. There is no denying he has a huge talent but his consistency with his songwriting is what determines if he gains new fans or if his fan base deserts him. I'm pretty much sitting on the fence with most of his work. That live Y/T set is quite unusual whereas the studio CD is very much a more cohesive production. YMMV Prog
progladyte Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 This band called Anglagard were considered to have been instrumental in redirecting prog in a new direction without losing sight of the original style their predecessors were famous for 2 decades earlier. This album requires a lot of attentive listening but repeated plays will reward the listener many times over. Enjoy!

YMMV Prog I can't really see him as a 'songwriter' as such! How many of his 'songs' would be familiar to anyone! (and that includes his fans)? The same goes for guitarists like Joe Satriani. He just plays 'notes'! BUT, get him in a 'band' and that's a whole different story "Chickenfoot"! Now that's where these 'players' start to actually 'play' in a band! (and sound good). 1

progladyte Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 I used to think that for some of his albums until I actually listened intensely under the Sennheisers. Once I was familiar with the structures of each piece it all fell into place pretty easily. It took about 4-5 listens for each album but once that initial waiting period is over, it becomes less of a challenge to sit through a CD and you begin to enjoy all the subtleties and nuances. Prog.
Tollbags Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 This is pretty cool Youtube is losing all it had though, the search engine seems to bring up Coke ad's first, then the ad's before you play the clip etc. Seems like time for a new dog. http://vimeo.com/8930835
Tollbags Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Youtube is what Apple is to SQ...theres better stuff out there but no ones wants to know? It was a real cool thing, now ...it's like sucking satan's pecker. http://vimeo.com/8931415 Edited February 16, 2013 by tolley
Tollbags Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I'm scaring myself...time to put on a record. http://vimeo.com/8930485
Soundscape Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) I'm with you tolley. Vimeo and Dailymotion is where the quality is at. Hopefully the range will improve with more support, although Vimeo is more about independent art, which is really cool. edit: cr@p! the ads are worse on dailymotion. not so on the phone Edited February 16, 2013 by rehabitat

Soundscape Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 What is it with these youtube links?The embed first up..........and then seem to time out! Yeah it's weird. The ones that show up on my PC are pretty random, but using tapatalk on my phone i can see all the embedded images.

Addicted to music Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 I was in HK killing time and I happened to bumped into a Virgin record store. Playing around with the new releases I heard this voice and taken note. It was a Jackie Evencho new CD title Songs of the Silver screen. This little angel blows me away, and I wish I was there, check this out: This has to be the best Duet I have ever laid eyes on. Absolutely beautiful, loss for words, the feeling you get when two of the best come together, brings tears to my eyes
LogicprObe Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Sure she's not a midget or something? Her voice sounds very mature!
Freedom Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Where's the 'better' stuff? Still trying to work out the 'better stuff' than youtube! Is it just better quality files elsewhere or is there a better 'video' site ? I'm confused!

Soundscape Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 ? Check out vimeo Generally the sq is far superior to yootoub, but you won't find any "classic rock" there, just new stuff
