Over in the vinyl sub at the Bad Place, u/Folk_nurse had been doing a Vinyl Tunes for June thing. When the blackout started, I kept adding to my own list each day, and I’d love to carry on with you all. Below is the calendar, I’ll start a thread each day.
The point is just to get us all looking at our physical collections and sharing music.
And seriously… ALL credit and thanks go to folk_nurse. I’m just not headed back there.
I’m personally a fan of “25 or 6 to 4” by Chicago
Lot of good ones already here. I’ll add this only because I just finished playing this disc:
I don’t think I’ve ever seen or heard this album, but this song is frigging awesome. I’ll definitely be giving the album some time this week. Thanks!
Celldweller - one good reason
This is the same guy who does Scandroid, right?
He does Scandroid, Celldweller, Circle of Dust, FreqGen and sometimes under his own name, Klayton.
Fun Boy Three - “Our Lips Are Sealed (12-inch)”
Sounding in places like Massive Attack, almost a decade before Massive Attack.EDIT: I’m seeing an expando on the links in other comments but not on mine. I used the link function (chain icon) to post the YouTube video. Does anyone here know how to format the link properly so an expando appears in this comment?
EDIT2: Huh… now the expando is there. Never mind, carry on, etc.
Iron Maiden- The Number Of The Beast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxnN05vOuSM
Boards of Canada - Sixtyten
Does that count?
Highway 61 Revisited, an all time great as far as I’m concerned.
Incredible song. Timecop 1983- Static https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCwR2k6rImQ
Prince- I Would Die 4 U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkNl3pq1twE
Could just do half of Prince’s discography. 7 would have been a good one too.
Porcupine Tree - .3, from the album Absentia. And a few tracks have Phase I and Phase II in their titles.
- Song - 32 Pennies
- Album - Greatest & Latest
- Artist - Warrant
Back to 80s rock today. Greatest & Latest features re-recordings of some of their songs with a few new ones mixed in. Generally, the re-recordings are a little looser, slower, and not as heavily produced as the originals. I quite enjoy them. Honestly hope that with Taylor Swift’s “Taylors Versions” we see more full scale re-recordings by some artists. Time and experience can really be heard and lend something new.
Mid 90s electronics that took samples from glitching CDs and made beautiful ambient future music.
