who here really appreciates good music?
 

asked another way, who's down with that ratatat sound?

one of those rare topics we can all agree on, right?


music so ahead of its time, it spiraled out and created a vortex which co-created a wormhole that simultaneously pushed and pulled itself through --- only to end up back in the past where it served as the original impetus for their jams eventually coining the phrase "pulling at your heart strings" sometime in the future long ago, all over again.

Funny you mentioned this. Thing is, I can't find "good" music for shit anymore. I'm still stuck looping Tuamie tracks. I literally can't find music that has replay value that lasts more than a month.

The world is devoid of the music I like.

word actually --- if the standard is "replay value that lasts more than a month", depending on frequency i guess, that is effin hard to top.


if i like a song enough to go in deep for a month --- i'll typically burn myself out by the end of it and not like it again until i go on a solid 5 year hiatus and hear it come on out of nowhere and appreciate it, at that point, almost solely for the nostalgia as opposed to the musical value --- because i'll have milked that tit for what it's worth....

^^ but really, a solid tune + "The Brave Little Toaster"...

I havent smoked up in a really, really long time -- but it doesn't matter when i watch that lol.

Dunno if this is what you're after, but I kick it to this kinda shit a lot when I'm chillin' out alone at home.

If it aint to your liking, well, shucks, I tried. Still some chill af music imo tho'. Hah.

I listen to film scores alot, its the only music I can listen to over an over, my top 25 on itunes if just film scores. Hans Zimmer the goat. Clint mansell goat jr

Word, just don't forget about Thomas Newman as well.

when i was underwater ratatat was on heavy rotation on my ipod. i wrote and recorded a few songs to a few of their tracks as well. a very distinct sound they have.

Havent heard him, list some songs/albums ill peep later bro

Lately ive had the tron legacy score on repeat but normally its zac hemsey, zimmer, mansell, james newton howard and a bit of stars of the lid.

Wow, seriously? Dude's made a bunch of awesome shit man. You could start with downloading the American Beauty soundtrack. From there; Lemony Snicket: A series of misfortunate events, he's made most of the songs on The Shawshank Redemption and Green Mile so I'd advice downloading the music from those two movies as well. He's made most of the songs to Finding Nemo and Wall-E too. Dudes dope af.
