I'm listening to a Kraftwerk album but I don't know how long it's gonna last.

I can definitely see where this turned into stuff like techno and acid. All it takes is some musicians doing cocaines and then wondering if they could make this music fun by playing it at 4x speed and without the Germanity. If you ever feel like tracing back the origins of electronic/techno/etc, I recommend stopping at Moroder's E=MC2 or that Donna Summer deal

Let's move ahead to LFO's Frequencies. I've done as much of this as I can.

Here's another jam off the new Big Thief album. It's been getting some super high praise across the interwebs, but I've only been into a handful of the 20 songs on the album so far.

Always come back to them... especially when have shit-tonnes of work to do and need to relax and work hard.

Love that they basically took baroque music and combined it with 1970s guitar music to create something that is ridiculously emotive and beautiful. Speaks so much without any words.

I am a music freak on virtually all genre.....lately I have been listening mostly to post romantic symphonic music of Bruckner and Mahler.

I was in Zurich during 9/11 and went many times to see the Zurich Symphony Orchestra. First night was a few songs by Schubert and the highlight was his Mass in C major. I sat maybe 6 rows back center.
A few nights later they played Mahler's 1st Symphony, I asked for the same seats. The ticket person laughed..... "we have to extend the stage to accommodate 120 players. We had to bring in also the Zurich Youth Orchestra" . Glorious music in such troubled times....

Anyway.......my most beloved symphony in this period is Bruckner's Fifth......4th movement is in certain sections a fugue with a chorale, extremely interesting how he plays off the brass [ not as large as say the 7th, 8th or 9th] against the strings and woodwinds. One of my favorites is Gunther Wand's interpretation. Gunther must have been in his late 80s when he conducted this version.
