I'm sure this type of thread has been done before, but eh I don't really care lol.

The Music Hole!

Wanted to make a thread that's just about discussing and sharing music from different bands/musicians no matter how popular or niche they are.

I've been personally delving into vinyl collecting and I recently got the live version of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon". I absolutely love the live versions of these songs. I personally think they sound a lot more emotional compared to the studio version of "Dark Side Of The Moon".

Here are some of my personal favorite picks off the album:
Pink Floyd - Breathe (In The Air) (Live At Wembley 1974) [2023 Master]
Pink Floyd - Time (Live At Wembley 1974) [2023 Master]

I've been collecting vinyl since around 2008. The very first record I bought was a sealed original copy of Masters At Work's 1993 album The Album. The most recent record I bought was a 2022 reissue of The Winstons' 1969 album Color Him Father.

Vinyl is such a fun way to collect music honestly, not to mention all the fun different cover designs/trinkets you can get from a vinyl.

Another Pink Floyd related one here, but when I got the vinyl version of "Wish You Were Here" it came with this neat little postcard that reflected on the album's theme of Syd Barret's departure from the band.
They didn't have to include it, but the fact they did makes things a lot more special.

What kind of turntable do you have? I've got an ancient AWA SP-03.

This is why a physical music collection is so nice, the extras like that. Digital can't compare in that regard of course. I buy mostly CDs, sometimes vinyl of albums I really like. Got them in racks beside my desk, right under my CD player. Love listening to them and taking a look at the art books and whatnot.
I'll share Lifestyles of the Laptop Cafe by The Other People Place from 2001. Nice chill techno album, was drawn to it originally by its cover art which I love as a fan of nature and older tech, loved the music upon listening, and bought a CD of it a few years ago.
Favorite track is Sunrays.

Highly recommend listening to Geogaddi and Campfire Headphase, and In a Beautiful Place out in the Country EP as well... I have those three and MHTRTC all on CD xD

Retro CD / vinyl takes too much space and no convenient way to backup offline music collection. So, I use only computer files and 1TB microSD on portable device. I never buy smartphone that doesn’t supports microSD, so I always have such portable device.

Mostly my foreground music is action oriented, so it sounds like that.

I got Victrola's Journey Suitcase Record Player.
It's a lot more modern with Bluetooth support added on to it but I mainly just use it to play vinyls. It's pretty good though I will say! It can get pretty loud which is honestly a plus when you have vinyls from bands like Nirvana and Metallica.

Perturbator... my goat...
Loved his work on Hotline Miami. Been meaning to listen to some of his albums in full, he makes killer electronic music.

Despite how old Vinyl is, it will forever seem like something futuristic.
The description of "a piece of plastic that sings when you run it through a diamond" just proves it.

Anyways, might as well list some of my all-time favorite albums:

1. The Glow, Pt. 2 by The Microphones, currently my favorite album of all time.
2. The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest.
3. Blonde by Frank Ocean.
4. Faces by Mac Miller.
5. How To Leave Town by Car Seat Headrest.
6. loveless by my bloody valentine.
7. A Love Supreme by John Coltrane.
8. Geogaddi by Boards of Canada.
9. Vespertine by Björk.
10. Cosmogramma by Flying Lotus.

That reminds me!
Since we're still talking about vinyl I wanted to mention I've made a small list of albums I've been hoping to get for my record player.

Can't remember all that was on it, but the albums I do remember were:
1. Quebec - Ween
2. Ride the Lightning - Metallica
3. Meteora - Linkin Park
4. In Utero - Nirvana
5. The Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd

I think that's it. There were some others like Nirvana's Unplugged at New York City but I already got that one.

6 Fuss Tiefer - OOMPH!
Where We Started From - Gemini Syndrome
Shotgun Blues - Volbeat
Stained - Linkin Park
Godspeed - Wage War
Relapse - Wage War

Basically the top 6 songs I listen to frequently

Do music from games count?

Dungeons of Dredmor - Icebattle
Raiden X stage 1 - Mildew Forest

Non videogame related:

Dolly Parton - Jolene
Gotye - Somebody That I Used

Strong atmosphere that makes you feel somber, carefree, melancholic etc really does it for me

I'm pretty basic when it comes to music taste, never really branch out much and didn't even get into listening to a whole lot until early 2024 but so far my top artists and respective songs are:

Boards of Canada | Favorite: Olson
Aphex Twin | Favorite: Ageispolis
Steve Reich | Favorite: Music for 18 Musicians
Autechre | Favorite: Foil
Clark | Favorite: Herzog

I started collecting some vinyl records earlier last year as well. I have a few from Boards of Canada, and a big box set of Selected Ambient Works II by Aphex Twin.

Looking to get into some older rock as well, I recently started listening to Pink Floyd and it's fantastic.

Fantastic :)

I've got the 85-92 vinyl record and it sounds nice. I've been slacking on getting more CD's, especially since they make much more sense from a financial standpoint but they aren't as cool as records in my opinion.

I like metal, but not that extreme. Metalcore is my current interest, thanks to Sirius XM Octane lol.

Today i found out e621 had forums, reading about all your music has been pretty cool :D
Hard to comment on each of your tracks, but i have experienced some new tracks (especially excess) i like and hope to return some.
These start as 80s atmospheric then become more pop/dance

I will contribute some of my favourites:

Swamp Thing - Chameleons

The “doom” genre is not really that extreme, most of it is lower tone and tempo
It’s darker in theme too
Of the 4 I posted the necromancers is the heaviest

Octane is great
Used to ozzys boneyard and Liquid Metal when I had satellite radio

Back again to recommend a really good new wave/dark wave band.
They're a French band called "Little Nemo". Their album Past and Future is a really good listen.

From what I've heard the album has two sides with one being named past and the other future. It's dope as hell and I'd recommend it if you're into new wave/dark wave stuff!

REM - Losing My Religion

After all the years of listening to this song, the chorus is now hitting home. I need to try and ask a girl out, or I'll be stuck like this forever.

https://youtu.be/xwtdhWltSIg?si=F6FmrBHglGJUPLj4

Finding meaning in a song is always a wild feeling
Here’s a song that always messed me up a bit
Part that gets me is the way he asks “what have I done?”
It always felt so ambiguous in the way it’s asked
Was it meant as a regretful question or a personal insight
Hit me recently that he always asks twice
Makes me think it was both

Someone once said "when you're young, you enjoy the music. When you're older, you feel the lyrics."

Other songs I enjoyed as a kid, "Behind Blue Eyes" by Limp Bizkit, "Loser" by 3 Doors Down, and "Race Against Myself" by The Offspring hits me completely different as an adult, as now they were like my life's anthems

Sadly I don't listen to a lot of their stuff, the other one I listen to is "Everywhere", however that song differs quite significantly. I can shotgun blast some vaguely similar sounding songs at you in mind to your original posts:

Sense of Purpose (by The Sound) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1s3ugUIlBw
Blue Hotel (by Chris Isaak) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_7v60hagbw
Lady Writer (by Dire Straits) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdxLnhsAzek

But they all lean more into my tastes so they probably won't be as impressive as the chain.

I found it went the other way for me. Though I am, even now, extremely temperamental, when I was younger I mostly listened to pop-punk/rock, and if the lyrics didn't have much impact I'd find the music boring. Bands like Joy Division/Nirvana/Radiohead helped bridge a gap to a lot of older music, which I ended up really liking for it's sound alone, leading back to even instrumental songs like Magic Fly. That and a generally improved attitude towards things. Though I will always keep the moody playlist :p

I've been into Amon Tobin's music for quite a while now. Check out his album "Permutations." No one else is doing anything even remotely similar.
