Is it the Tweedy swooning hour? Yay.
Uncle Tupelo - March 16-20, 1992

Code: [Select]

http://www.mediafire.com/?zonmodgm2ry

Produced by R.E.M.'s Peter Buck, March 16-20, 1992 represents Uncle Tupelo's full evolution into a true country unit; with the exception of the eerie squalls of guitar feedback which haunt Jeff Tweedy's mesmerizing "Wait Up," there's virtually no evidence of the trio's punk heritage. Instead, the all-acoustic album — a combination of Tupelo originals and well-chosen traditional songs — taps into the very essence of backwoods culture, its music rooted in the darkest corners of Appalachian life. An inescapable sense of dread grips this collection, from the large-scale threat depicted in the stunning rendition of the Louvin Brothers' "The Great Atomic Power" to the fatalism of the worker anthems "Grindstone" and "Coalminers"; even the character studies, including a revelatory "Moonshiner," are relentlessly grim. A vivid glimpse at the harsh realities of rural existence, March 16-20, 1992 is a brilliant resurrection of a bygone era of American folk artistry.

Well, the first review I found said this is neither their best album nor the ideal place to start with Tuxedomoon, and that's probably true, but it is good.  Mostly I am uploading this because it was suggested I might do so. I don't even really know what to say about it.  Quiet. Occasionally electronic.  Strings. It's...interesting.  Reflective.

When we're all done reliving our pretweeny boyband years, hit the dance floor with NEW CRYSTAL METHOD!

The Crystal Method - Divided By Night (2009)



You don't know The Crystal Method? They've been around since the early 90's, rockin' out electronic jams with the likes of The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, and Fatboy Slim. This time 'round, in their fourth studio album (recorded in their own newly constructed full-sized recording studio), they go all-out, with a much darker sound and guest appearances like Matisyahu, Emily Haines (Metric), Jason Lytle (Grandaddy), and Peter Hook (Joy Division, New Order). If that's not enough to get you to download it, I don't know what is.

For me, this album goes almost hand-in-hand with the also-stellar 2007 Chemical Brothers release We Are the Night.

whats the dilly with that state upload?  doesn't work?  i'm interested to hear what that is, as i've never heard it.  i also recently heard that they might be releasing all the episodes on a dvd finally.  my life would be complete.

[Clintaga]

Crystal Method's new CD is hell of tight, Very pleased, although I gotta say, I've been hearing a ton of a poor live reviews, so I'll just blast this very loudly and stay home, instead of rushing off to the release tour.

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. This includes requests for re-uploads; if you miss it, try looking for it somewhere else.

Repost the rules at the top of each new page.

Okay, so

I posted this album much earlier and was very disappointed with its reception (in that i dont think very many downloaded it.) but i think this album is a masterpiece.

Pere Ubu - Dub Housing

from Robert Christgau
Dub Housing [Chrysalis, 1979]
Because I trust the way Ubu's visionary humor and crackpot commitment rocks out and/or hooks in for the sheer pleasure of it, I'm willing to go with their excursions into musique concrete, and on this record they get me somewhere. The death of Peter Laughner may well have deprived America of its greatest punk band, but the subsequent ascendancy of synth wizard Allen Ravenstine has defined a survival-prone community capable of bridging the '60s and the '80s without acting as if the '70s never happened. Imitating randomness by tucking randomlike sounds into deep but tactfully casual structures, joyfully confusing organic and inorganic sounds, they teach us how to live in the industrial shift--imaginatively! A

great music really.... i feel like pere ubu was a great influence on frank black and therefore the pixies. especially with their infusion of noise, surf rock, and yelps.

Daisy May Erlewine - Snow Songs

Code: [Select]

http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=5c2f3ac54e60bcf6d2db6fb9a8902bda
Simple - almost minimalist - folk songs, with a few instrumentals. Sort of a just-for-fun, in-between-albums thing, and I think she plays most (if not all) the instruments herself. So, there are a few so-so tracks on here, but there's more intimacy as well. She has a really warm, inviting sound and a great voice.

Ok, so I've finally gathered the patience to put up some new stuff.

Fink - Sort Of Revolution (Folk / Lo-Fi / Dub)

Picture yourself slightly hung over in a chilly pitch black room reflecting on life and all of a sudden a man begins to whisper awesome mellow songs in your ear; just an idea of how my morning started today.

Code: [Select]

http://www.mediaf!re.com/download.php?y2l3nnemjci

Fin Greenall, a.k.a. Fink, is a Brighton-based singer-songwriter whose new album, Sort of Revolution, is his third effort released by Ninja Tune. And, in nearly every way, the songs on Sort of Revolution sound exactly like what you would expect from an acoustic-toting singer-songwriter signed by Ninja Tune: introspective lyrics over groovy, urban backdrops. A proudly understated musician, Fink crafts a hushed, mellow album that is equal parts brooding and soulful. Primarily accompanied solely by Guy Whittaker on bass and Tim Thronton on drums, Fink’s jazzy-folk sound is occasionally dour, but often gratifyingly distinct from most of today’s independent singer-songwriters.

Every track on Sort of Revolution would feel at home in a warm, European coffeehouse — you can practically smell the clove smoke and darjeeling aromas wafting through the speakers. The album’s opening title track is clearly its strongest and best exemplifies Greenall’s ability to turn a deceivingly simple guitar riff into a beautiful, haunting experience. Clocking at over six and a half minutes, Greenall patiently utilizes all of his musical space and allows his smooth voice to gently carry the listener. “Let me know when we get there/ If we get there” he pleads over a softly tapping bass and sporadic drum clacks, setting a dim lyrical precedent that’s developed throughout the album. Perhaps to repay Greenall for collaborating on his Evolver album, R&B sensation John Legend co-writes and plays piano on the next track "Move On Me," a placid study in tension-and-release. Meanwhile, "Q & A" is a spaced-out, sexy joint that cleverly eludes over-repetition by playing around with various filters and studio effects, effortlessly conjuring lonely city streets on cold, existential nights.

The Hotels - Where Hearts Go Broke (New Wave / Post Punk / Surf)

90's hipsters galore; or at least that feeling of being in space, eating sour gummy worms, and getting blow jobs.

Code: [Select]

http://www.mediaf!re.com/download.php?jtud2mmmm2n

Where Hearts Go Broke could be described as Joy Division on surf boards in space. And it's not as odd as it may seem. On their previous album, Thank You For Choosing..., Hotels were very influenced by gothic synth pop, new wave and the likes of Joy Division. But as the band partly moved from New York to Seattle, it seems like they left much of that behind, embracing the surf music of the West Coast. And this change to more surf-like rhythms also give more room for the retro sci-fi pop sound.

This doesn't mean that the new wave is totally absent. Especially on the tracks "Port of Saints" and "The Maudlin", it is most definitely present. Yet, with more space-tone and lightness than in their previous work. Which is something that becomes them well. These two tracks, and the magnificent "The Heart That Hears Like A Bat" are also the songs that stands out as highlights on this all-over-good album. The latter a slow, lounge tune that takes you to the 70ies dreamy sci-fi soundscapes.

With this fusion of new wave synth pop, surf and sci-fi sounds, Hotels delivers something close to a perfect pop album. With just the right amount of nerve, romance and sophistication.

The Consonant C is a group of musicians held together by a glue of love, making music like little lanterns that cluster into somewhat organized constellations of sound. Incubated during cold nights in Calgary basements, these six friends woo their audiences by making ghost noises, thumping drums, plucking banjos, strumming harps, rubbing wine glass rims, plinking Glockenspiels, banging pianos, and stirring fantastic vocal harmonies. Bringing together various musical backgrounds including formal training in classical and jazz, forays in Punk rock and folk, and love affairs with what is know down south as New Weird American, they display a playful zeal for every influence. As founding members of local collective The Summerwood Warren, they regularly collect the Calgary music community into heart bursting all aged nights of adventure and creativity, involving video projections, artistic installations, the occasional tobogganing excursion, and yes, live appearances from the band. Specializing in creative performance, they are likely to dress up as animals, build you a blanket fort, or at the very least, to have you singing, howling, and loving along.

And a shorter, but no less awful,l description: Basically if you took a cloud, and dressed it up as music, it would probably have been written by this band. Gentle melodies accentuated by a pretty voiced vocalist are basically what these guys are about. I had to split it into two parts because of the usual reasons.

When normal user adds to post count: Forced page break unnecessary and therefore unwanted.

When option two happens: I become a dick.

Bruno Coulais - Coraline (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (2009)



Haunting, beautiful, magical soundtrack for the haunting, beautiful, and magical movie. An absolute delight.

Highly rhythmic and sonically alien, the score to Coraline is eerie, lovely, terrifying and whimsical by turns, curiously maintaining a continuous air of dark fantasy. The melodies and instrumentation are both alike distant and strange, giving the entire score the feeling of dream-music. But while the music is not familiar or conventional, it is undeniably intriguing and captivating.

The score album begins, oddly enough, with the sprightly but vaguely sinister “End Titles,” with fast-paced plucked strings, harp and whining boys’ choir, singing meaningless words in almost intimate whispers. An occasional swell of the strings and brass section give the cue an off-balance, teetering feel. The album is not presented in film order, and this contributes to the arbitrary, dream-like atmosphere of the music.

A gentle theme for Coraline is introduced on album in the wistful “Installation,” which features soothing vocals by the Children’s Choir of Nice (who feature prominently during the entire course of the score), backed by plucked harp and glass armonica. The theme is given a more playful development by solo boy soprano in “Exploration,” and on soothingly light electronic elements and flute in “In the Bed.”

Zoë Keating - One Cello x 16: Natoma (2005)



Some srsly rawsome atmospheric cello mastery for you here.

In her solo performances and recordings (particularly the ongoing project she calls "One Cello x 16"), she uses live electronic sampling and repetition in order to layer the sound of her cello, creating rhythmically dense musical structures. Zoë's self-produced album "One Cello x 16: Natoma" has four times made it to #1 on the iTunes classical charts. Keating is the recipient of a 2009 Performing Arts grant from the Creative Capital Foundation. She has collaborated with such artists as Amanda Palmer, Rasputina, and John Vanderslice.
