The best one is volume 1, I think. The Eluvium mix is spectacular. This is a good series though!

New album by If These Trees Could Talk. It's called Above the Earth, Below the Sky. It came out like a week ago but I just found out about it today completely by accident. I've been listening to their old album for nothin'. I haven't had a chance to listen to this one in full yet, unfortunately, but it seems pretty good so far.

I thought some people might like to hear it.

The Halo Benders - The Rebels Not In



One half Built to Spill, one half Beat Happening, all awesome.  The song "Virginia Reel Around the Fountain" pretty much warrants the download by itself.

You wouldn't happen to be the Dan Carter that is my brother, would you? If so, hi, it's your brother Kyle.

I don't think so, unless your name was originally David.  Hello in any event, and if it is David, what's with this Kyle stuff?

These guys have been talked about a lot, it seems, but are still quite hard to come by. I know, I couldn't find them, but I was so lucky that one of my friends booked them for a local show, so he gave me their EP, in a promotion copy... It psychadelic rock, and quite good.

Crystal Antlers - Crystal Antlers EP



Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?owmmgkjkrju
Here's an extract from the pitchfork review:
Quote
Crystal Antlers look like outcasts from six different bands, and at various points on this record, they sound like it, too: Merging psych, garage, lo-fi, prog, and countless other influences, the group easily maintains consistency despite a complete inability to be pinned to any specific movement or trend (so long as you're not counting the increasingly frustrating trend of unimaginative bandnames).

You might come across comparisons to Les Savy Fav, an appropriate call if you consider it shorthand for "relentlessly energetic band with crowd-pleasing stage antics." EP's opener "A Thousand Eyes" is evidence enough of that: Beginning with doomy, lo-fi minor arpeggios, it soon explodes into a Latin-influenced rumble before the band piledrives into a swaggering psych hook, the track sounds something like if Comets on Fire inverted their ratio of chaos-to-craft. Beneath the squall, "Vexation"'s headsnapping pace and flesh-searing bass riff could be a Stooges-style punk shoutalong. The organ riff that "Owl" pogos on is a found relic from late-1960s Venice Beach with a monolithic vocal melody. And like any long-haired throwback worth its bongos, EP ends with the loosest and longest number, the seven-minute swamp lurch of "Parting Song for the Torn Sky".

Hey Hey Hey

So since everyone here is a music snob I want some recommendations on Lo-Fi/Bedroom/Cult/Obscuro Artists

I like Jandek, Hasil Adkins, Beck. Like real weird 4-track people.

So for an FYI, THIS IS NOT A REQUEST just want suggestions.

also, I was reading Out Magazine awhile ago, it could be a year or so ago, and there was this guy who like just recorded shit his whole life and when he died his apartment was like 800 cassettes of like Disco Folk lo-fi shiz. I can't find out who he is but if anyone has any leads on this person please holla.

let me know if you want the whole album upped, they've done that cover in their usual style, so if you like that, there's a fair chance you'll enjoy the rest of the album.

The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion OST - Jeremy Soule

The musical score of Oblivion. I've been listening to it all day. It sounds like... well. It's the soundtrack of a fantasy game, so I guess you can imagine for yourself. Played by a full orchestra, or at least that's what it sounds like (it's a digital orchestra, and I guess some people can tell the difference, but I sure couldn't).

Pretty fun if you are into putting on music when you go to sleep and pretend you're somewhere else. In this case: Any woodland scene from Lord of the Rings.

This is the debut album from the band Pines of Nowhere. Basically imagine Ted Leo singing for Drive Like Jehu. Or Gang of Four. Or Ted Leo singing for Gang of Four covering Drive Like Jehu songs.

Just this week I saw these guys playing with Tokyo Police Club and The Honorary Title in Chicago and I really enjoyed their show. Their album is also very fun listeneing so I thought I would share it here with you all.


Quote
Scenes often imply a style, but for the most visible exports of Toronto's post-millennial indie-rock scene-- Broken Social Scene, the Constantines, the Hidden Cameras-- the unifying principle has been not so much a common musical aesthetic as a communal ethic: the compulsion to crowd the stage with players and audience members alike, turning observers into participants and vice versa. Arriving in Toronto three years ago from the nearby town of Midland, on paper Born Ruffians seemed antithetical to the prevailing group-hug atmosphere: they boast no auxiliary horn or string sections, no spotlight-stealing guest female singers, no balaclava-clad dancers-- just three unassuming kids in standard guitar/bass/drums formation. But Born Ruffians haven't let their personnel deficiencies and basic instrumentation stop them from thinking and functioning like a mass collective-- they simply hoot and holler and make a spectacle of themselves (a cappella group-huddle sing-alongs, anyone?) like a band three times their size.

(This is my first post, although, i've downloaded a bunch)
This is an album that my friend told me about. It is so good, and i have not been able to stop listening.
Its very relaxed. If I had to classify it, i would call it a mix between Psychedelic, Experimental, and Folk, maybe Psychsperimental Folk? Experimental Folkydelic?
I don't know, but here it is:

Vex'd - Degenerate
Quote from: A really excited guy at brainwashed.com
Merciless and astounding, Degenerate is a shock to the proverbial system, a savage hate crime against the softened eardrums of wimpy dance rock hipsters and trendy techno fashionistas. The duo behind Vex'd conjure up an unflinching and bleak industrial vision of electronic music, the likes of which havent been seen since Scorn's Greetings from Birmingham. The solitary opening bleeps of "Pop Pop V.I.P." resurrect the elated tones of Sweet Exorcist's pathbreaking classic "Testone" before erupting into a grisly cacophony of neck-snapping snares and stomach-churning rumbles. "Thunder" slashes the tempo right in half, leaving only an eviscerated aural carcass. The twisted uptempo rhythms return on "Angels," a sub-bass monster specked with a particularly ghastly film sample. This dancefloor-accessible style of low-end worship dominates the album, from the dubby inflections of "Venus" and "Fire" to the unstoppable breakbeat monoliths of "Gunman" and "Lion V.I.P." A notable deviation from this effective formula comes on "Cold" with its distant strings and gurgling, groaning synthy squelches, presenting an atmospheric, more pensive and, atypically, beatless version of the now undeniable Vex'd sound. As if an entire album of such power weren't enough, Planet Mu thankfully includes a second disc of bonus tracks culled largely from previously released 12" records. The original version of "Lion," a highlight among this shorter set, digs a distorted bleepy melody out of the crates that might tantalize former ravers longing for the sounds of forgotten warehouse parties.

To approach Degenerate as the product or even a relative of the U.K. dubstep/sublow/grime scenes would do it an immense injustice, as Vex'd truly have compiled a peerless document that speaks to our grim, chaotic, blood-drenched world without hardly saying a word.

Julian Fane - Special Forces
Quote from: Tinymixtapes
At first listen, Special Forces sounds like Sigur Ros stepping out of the ether for some bracing piano-driven techno pop. Julian sings like Jonsi and on "Freezing in Haunted Water" he sounds a lot like the high Thom Yorke vocal part in "I Will." This is derivativeness, sure enough, but it's the sort that's tempered with a sonic innovation that wears its Kid A influences in a rolled-up sleeve.

It seems to me that Kid A should've been more influential. And I'm not talking about the mere merging of rock and electronica, but the focal shift from verse-chorus-verse to something more tentative and textural. People put down the last Sigur Ros album, stating that it was "boring." I can't help but gasp at that notion. Perhaps these people never listened to the second ( ) track on their headphones while in a snowstorm. This is insulated, sensationally mood altering tonal soundings orchestrated with such intricate grace and tenderness that it's almost impossible for me not to be moved by it.

Special Forces is no knock-off. There is a distinctive sort of melding of its influences into something that sends off familiar bells, but fills an entirely different landscape. If ( ) is vast, semi-tragic winter wonder, then this record is the gradual thaw. Fane's trilling beat infrastructures chip away at vast ice floes, both nestling into and breaking away from a deeply numbing frost. There's a great effect in the background of the Vangelis-inflected "The Birthday Boys" that sounds like the slow-motion pep rally at the end of Heathers. It's little sonic details like this that make Fane stand apart from his peers and mentors. The melodies are definitely of the same melancholic tone as Sigur Ros, but I wouldn't be inclined to call it depressing. If it does lend itself to depression, it's the exquisitely crystalline sort that Xiu Xiu can lend itself to (there's actually a vague Xiu Xiu type of vibe on the trilling "Darknet").

So, while Julian Fane might not be breaking too much new ground with this LP, he's expanding on a landscape that is the ideal for people who don't dread the coming winter, but instead feel sort of romantic about it. People who call music like this depressing must just have really limited sonic palettes. To me, it contains great mystery and intrigue, with a sort of moody bent that doesn't overtake you, but edges you into a comfortable precipice of isolation. This is music probably best appreciated when you're by yourself, and it's just what the doctor ordered for those anticipating new material from Radiohead or Sigur Ros.

edIT - Crying Over Pros For No Reason
Quote from: Boomkat
Planet Mu has made a name for itself with its persistant persuit of new talent, this latest endeavour bringing to life the debut work of L.A’s Edward Ma, aka Edit. The sound is a somehow familiar blend of acoustic “song” constructions developed with electronic means, but the delivery stands out for its intricacy and warmth. Album openers “Ashtray” and “Ants” play around careful guitar strums and post-rockish tendencies, interjected with vocal hiccups and loops more reminiscent of the man Prefuse 73. The instrumentation seeps through with a lo-fi, distant tinge – think of an instrumental version of Styrofoam’s excellent last album for Morr Music for a frame of reference. Only album closer “Mildew” departs from the blueprint, instead opting for a more Tommy Guerero-esque strum of the lonely guitar in a relaxed, sunny manner. “Crying Over Pros For No Reason” doesn’t necessarily add any new words to the electronic / acoustic vocabulary, but the language it employs is articulated with a lovely, heartwarming understanding of melody and construction that should be applauded and checked out by those of you who live life on the mellow side without delay. Lovely.

Doug Stanhope - Die Laughing

Comedy, technically, but not for the faint of heart.  Doug Stanhope is depressed, self-deprecating, misanthropic, intentionally offensive, and generally seems like a pretty unpleasant dude while you're listening to him.  However, he has the capacity to eviscerate and ridicule the same cultural taboos as masters like Bill Hicks and George Carlin, and be pretty damn funny doing it.  If you enjoy comics like Hicks and Carlin for their perspective, you'll probably like him, even if it is despite yourself.  He warmed up to me over the course of this album, for sure.



From his website:
Quote
Doug Stanhope is a stand-up comic. Has been since 1990.

His material ranges from true-life graphic perversion to volatile social criticism. Doug is vulgar, opinionated, brutally honest and shockingly uninhibited and is certainly not for everybody.

He started his career in Las Vegas doing jack-off jokes for free drinks. Not much has changed, save for the mullet.

Doug has built a wide-ranging television resume of dubious achievement. He hosted The Man Show on Comedy Central as well as the ubiquitous pseudo-porn for the sexually crippled, "Girls Gone Wild", both solely and shamelessly for financial gain. He has appeared on "The Howard Stern Show", "Comedy Central Presents", "Premium Blend", NBC's "Late Friday", "Spy TV" BBC's "Floor Show Live" while on ecstasy and wrote, produced and starred in Fox's "Invasion of the Hidden Cameras" and has even popped up on "Fox News with Greta Van Sustern" and "The Jerry Springer Show". But none of it compares to seeing him live.

I always thought I'd be the first to upload some Sly & Robbie.

Now if I can just get the rest of those CDs from my friend's house, I could upload the rest of their stuff and the Shabba Ranks albums.

Here's a concert of churchy music:  Duruflé's Requiem (in the version with organ accompaniment), and Widor's Mass, with a couple of movements from his 6th Organ Symphony interpolated; I am singing bass in the choir (I also recorded it and wrote the program and notes, which are in the file).  Duruflé's Requiem is a rather peaceful one, like Fauré's, but more modern in idiom although mainly based on plainchant melodies.  The Widor is straightforward, but good rumbustious stuff.

The master recording is in ambisonic surround - the organ is at the opposite end of the chapel from the choir, so sounds from behind you.  It is also higher up, but you need a big 3-D setup (e.g. eight speakers in a cube) to get that in playback!  I can make DTS-Surround CDs, but they're too big for this sort of download  :evil:

Rules:

No hot-linking images or albums. You can re-host images at http://imageshack.us.

Ensure your tags are correct and that you have specified both Artist/Album in your post.

Upload your files in either a .zip or a .rar archive to mediaf!re.com, in multiple parts if the album is over 100mbs. The reason for this is that we know mediaf!re is safe and efficient and allows multiple downloads. The ads on other sites, such as Sendspace, are known to contain viruses on the page. Get yourself checked out.

Post your link using code tags. It's the # icon above the policeman emoticon. This prevents the links from being traced back to the forums, lowering the chance that the wrong people notice the thread, potentially threatening Jeph with legal action.

Also, please do NOT request albums.

Before you post in this thread, take a minute and consider the following:

Think of this as the community chest. Everyone is free and encouraged to contribute to it, with that in mind:

* This thread is for you to share  the music that you love for people who would normally not be able to access it. This is not an everything-goes-all-the-time mp3 blog.
* Think about what you are uploading. Is it easily available elsewhere and popular? If yes, is it really worth it to upload and post here?
* Have some self control. Is it really necessary to upload the entire discography of this band? Is it all really so excellent? If it is, don't worry. Whoever downloads this will surely realize this and look for more material on their own.

To return to the community chest, imagine you one day open the chest and everyone threw everything inside it. There's probably more things that you can use there now, but they are now buried in a mountain of debris and you'll likely miss the good stuff anyway! Imagine though, that you come to the chest one day and you find that everyone thought about what might best serve us all and then neatly placed it inside. This is what this thread should be.

Here's Pete Doherty's solo album, Grace/Wastelands. I was a little Libertines fanboy for years, but the last Babyshambles release turned me off like a cold sore on a cock. Anyway, this is not like that. The album gets a double whammy of the Blur treatment with Graham Coxon playing guitar and Stephen Street producing, and the songs are all damn well written. It's strong material.

a couple more albums by british prog-ska/post-hardcore (sorry, that's the best i can come up with.  think of Rx Bandits's later stuff with less reggae-emphasis) fellas Howards Alias.  i posted their other (and best, by just a tiny bit) album "The Answer Is Never" earlier in the thread btw.  "Beat Heart Beat" is a little bit more varied, whereas "The Chameleon Script" is a more straight ahead Mad Caddies-influenced ska-punk album.  Both are great though.

FabricLive 42 - Freq Nasty



Quote
Bridging the gap between the most current scenes in London's bass culture, FreQ Nasty rumbles with underground thunder on FABRICLIVE 42, a staggering showcase of some of the rawest breaks-led beats around. Evading the pitfalls of a genre-controlled mix, yet at the same time avoiding the stop-start feel of a "mash up" mix, on FABRICLIVE 42 he's imaginatively arranged a flowing, tightly-connected blend of FreQ-y tracks. With the bass heavy stomp of L-Vis 1990's UK take on Baltimore house, the blistering shatter of TRG and several of his own storming productions, including his Santogold hit 'Creator,' the mix is a terror to bassbins worldwide. Buckle up.

Hey thanks for the Howards Alias, i've been trying to get my hands on "Beat Heart Beat" ever since I downloaded that other album that you posted a while back.

The links need to be switched though, you've got TCS under the album art for BHB.

The former features the band's most famous song and only semi-hit, "Savory."  The latter has a badass cover of Tori Amos' "Cornflake Girl" hidden in the gap after the last track.  Both are awesome albums.  J. Robbins is a massively underrated musician and songwriter.
