Its funny how spotify is designed for you to discover music but the algorithm is so garbage that the app actually doesn't make his function, meanwhile you have youtube that straight up just throws awesome albums at your face every once in a while, like a good friend saying "hey bro, listen to this, you gonna like it".
YT Music is very similar. Best thing to do is discover music on YT then add it so you just play it YT Music. I think YT Premium is 100 times better than Spotify. Mostly because you get UA-cam + YT Music.
I had the same complaint with apple music. It just felt like I listened to the same stuff, and even if I got new songs recommended to me, I never liked them. Spend a bit of time on youtube though, and you find hidden obscure stuff from ages ago.
UA-cam remains the pre-eminent resource for 'organic' music discovery precisely _because_ its utility in this regard is essentially an afterthought; unlike Spotify, which was predicated on nothing else and has therefore, inevitably succumbed to enshittification (and could never hold a candle to the glory days of Last.fm, even still).
I'll never fucking get over it. Mindblowing in the best possible way - within everybody is a potential sonic world shaped by their upbringing, experiences, positive and negative. It's incredible.
very particular 2000's vibe; cityscapes, modernist architecture, public transport, the last time you smelled that strong petrol odour from cars, trimmed grass, yellow street lights breaking the night. A transition period in the telecom age, digitalisation and internet. Technological optimism. Globalisation. This catches a whole zeitgeist, as Echostar, Bowery Electric, Jan Jalinek, and Bark Psychosis. Truly a magnificent album, amazing find. Thank you for making it available
I make mixes from time to time on my channel, and I have just made a mix called "Music for 2000's Middle Class Simulacra". Maybe you'll like it and find some more hidden gems - otherwise, just could just listen and ruminate on all the left out opportunities the recession took away from you.
I was in my 20s during this time and the air itself smelled like hope and wonder. I was an exchange student in Osaka, wandering neon streets with my MD player, dreaming of my future. Now, I’m a professor at a large Japanese university and middle age presses on me heavily. The body breaks, the mind slows,the hope fades and the realization that you can only ever experience things the first time once makes you grieve as you run out of new horizons to explore. So it’s nice to have this and things like it, to call up old memories and still the ripples of Life. Thank you for this!!
A human mind can never run out of horizons to explore. The world is too vast. The more you learn, the more you realize that you know nothing. The only thing you can run out of is your will to explore. Your passion. But you can always rediscover it. It's never too late to try new things, to learn new stuff. It might take a little bit longer, than it used to, but that's a thing you've got to accept. Your mind might move slower, but it still moves, it still yearns to learn. It wants to fail and discover ways to succeed. You can do it. Don't give up. Cherish the gift of life that chance brought upon us.
Dear UA-cam, THIS is what I want in my music recommendations, those sounds made by electronic and analog tools that aren't used that much anymore, sounds that can be stamped with a year on their forehead. SOOTHING
This type of art actually has a silly name: Gen X Soft Club. It was visible through so much stuff produced in the late 90s and early 2000s, the technological turn of the millennium. It was especially prominent with promotional stuff like album covers. Some other good examples of album art in this genre are Make Yourself by Incubus, The Madding Crowd by Nine Days, Reel Time Canvas by Camden, and Midnight Drive by Ruxpin. It's a big part of the Y2K Aesthetic.
Man, that first song was a journey. Starting with minimal ambient sounds, then a chill Latin jazzy sampled beat comes in, building to a total synth freakout. I'm hooked! Electronic music was so cool in this era.
Time to imagine music in an era where the infinite wasn’t immediately possible. The chasm, then, between what is and what could be was human genius and ingenuity.
This made me appreciate life a lot more than I did before listening to it, the beauty of life is that you experience it once, and I’m glad to have said I listened to this at least this once
This is beautiful. Kind of feels like the intersection of Lemon Jelly and Towa Tei stylistically. It flirts with trip hop, sample collage and jungle. The cover art definitely goes hard too. Thank you youtube algo for this one :)
Had headphones in while frequenting some museums today then this came on in a mix. 'Private Roots' was so transcending. This is one of those albums where you take a look at the cover and just know how good it'll be.
Same age. I'd just gotten a Dreamcast. DirecTV had XM radio as some of there channels, one of them was this sort of chill/ trip hop genre. Between video game music of the era and these channels, I'm happy to say that shaped quite an interesting ear in music. God bless
Only released on CD (According to Discogs). not to be found on Spotify. UA-cam saves the day again, providing rare music to us. And holy shite this is a phenomenal album! Wish it was on wax.
Man this image is something else... otherworldly but familiar, simple but deep. Fills me with nostalgia. Encapsulates the essence of the music perfectly.
I would totally recommend checking out the rest of Speedometer's discography if you like this one. My favorite albums of his are Or Not. (1998) and Sense of Wander (2002).
@@xuvetynpygmalion3955 I don't have those on CD, but I'd love to if I get my hands on them.

NGL the drop at 34:40 min mark is so satisfying, after all of the scratchy interference and looping distortion, the drum break caught me off guard. Such a sick record
Upon clicking this video and seeing the image and title, I wondered to myself, "Will this be Drum n Bass or Ambient music?(my two favorite genres)" ...Somehow it was both. 🙌

even though I would've just been about a year old when this album came out, it makes me incredibly nostalgic and sad for this time. Such amazing minimalist sounds.
I wouldn’t want to grab ahold of a plume of pleasant smoke, if I did it would explode right away from my wanton sight. I’ll follow it back to whence it came.

It's crazy how much music exists in the world

Truly. An infinite plethora of soundscapes. Thank the Most Highs and the Creation / Opportunity/ Language / Gift of Muzik.
100k+ tunes are released per day, and that number grows exponentially as the access to making and releasing music becomes easier
time spent listening to a track or album you already love is time taken from hearing something new. This is the saddest of all my dilemmas.
Why it's so hard for me to have one favorite genre or band. There's just SO MUCH to discover ❤
Born too late to explore the world. Born too early to explore the universe. Born at just the right time to listen to music
Real
Them first two ain't true. You just aren't reaching bro. 😅

There's a lot out there in the Universe!
everything is always new you're just too close to who you were, it's hard to let go
this is gay you are gay
So it's time to show the younger people their new horizons.
A human mind can never run out of horizons to explore. The world is too vast. The more you learn, the more you realize that you know nothing.
The only thing you can run out of is your will to explore. Your passion. But you can always rediscover it. It's never too late to try new things, to learn new stuff.

Glad I judge by the cover 💚

L 😊 we know what kind of person you are
same lmao, somehow it never failed
Same here! I actually went back on my watch history just to find this. Positive color and music💚🎶
音質がboards of canadaを連想させる、晴れた冬の早朝、冷んやりしていて抜けがいい空気
No idea what you're saying but I see boards of canada in there so I definitely agree
hell yeah
Agreed
こっちのほうが爽快感はある気がする
@@naccienac roughly "The sound quality is reminiscent of Boards of Canada, and the air is cool and crisp on a sunny winter morning."
You can actually recognize the time this album was released only by the album cover, this type of cover art was so appealing in the 2000s.
Still appealing to me today

what albums have cool covers like this?
@@Playstationguy1999 Googled all of them. Such beautiful covers!!!
Of course it's Japanese, they were so culturally interesting and ethereal in the 90s-2000s.
Discovering such good music keeps me from unaliving myself.
Hang in there brother, that’s where we are all headed anyway. Don’t skip to the end, so much music to enjoy before our time comes.
Dude, those type of pictures, like the industrial pics are so... loud to me, they speak to me in ways I can't imagine.
