Made it five minutes. "Look how sophisticated I am! I listen to discordant dumpster jazz! Behold my shit-eating grin!"
Nailed it! Here's your trophy: 🏆
Listened to most of it. Have to agree with your description; couldn’t have said it better myself...
elu ve elu divrei elokim hayim
😂
Oh dear, isn't it amazing how defensive people get when someone likes music they don't? I don't think he uses the word "sophisticated", he says "weird". You may not think it is, and? Aren't there other channels you can go to with mainstream crap where the video maker acts as though they're having a orgasm whilst listening? You're one of those people who look at Van Gogh's Sunflowers and think it's crap because it doesn't look like a photograph, aren't you.
Clarinetist on Mat Muntz's record here. Mat, myself, and everyone involved in that project, are part of the scene here where we make weird music to usually a small crowd. Even for this project, the one show we played probably had a single digit band:audience size ratio. I appreciate you taking the time to curate and amplify this music to reach a wider audience! Excited to check out the rest!
Awesome! Maybe you can join us for the interview. Talk to Mat. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You - and your scene - are amazing. You have appreciation from across the ocean!!!! ❤️
Serious question; what do you do for a living?
You have probably already heard of it, the world of improvised music is a small one. But if you are coming to Europe you may want to contact Offene Ohren in Munich. They have put on a series of improvised music over the years of very high quality and I think Mat Muntz's music would fit with their programming. You can be guaranteed of a modestly sized but attentive and enthusiastic audience.
Who are you asking, Dave?
Having grown up on a diet of Zappa Giant, Crimson, etc; I'm super grateful that you're pointing out all of the awesome stuff that's still being made today in a seemingly empty era of music!
So glad you feel this way. Let’s go support these artists!
This is fantastic Anthony. Love Sleepytime. Definitely influenced by the Crimson, Sleepytime, FZ, Rush world. Great to see your Jon Finn live too. Sent you a promo copy of our weird stuff. 😊
@joeriffanucci thank you! Where’d you send it? I have too many inboxes.
@@MakeWeirdMusic Just crawled out of a 2 or 3 hour "Snarky Puppy" rabbit-hole ;)
Same..
I sometimes get depressed knowing all the fantastic music out there that I'll miss because there isn't enough time to discover it.
Don’t get depressed. Be glad to live in a world where we could not hear it all even if we had all the time in the world.
Use serendipity.
UA-cam must make you suicidal then: there's 500 hours uploaded every MINUTE 24/7.
The late John Peel was in a constant state of dismay for the same reason.
I've thought that exact same thing 🤷🏾♂️😭🙃
People saying jazz isnt weird don't know how weird jazz gets.
For sure!
Sun Ra, Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, Art Ensemble of Chicago. That will challenge most musicians.
Now go support the artists! ❤
Love all this music. You must be a Metheny appreciator too, based on these selections! Uh, at least some of his stuff.
@@roycroftjones9924 yep. I’ve done a couple videos about him and my good friend is his tech.
Ever heard of Dr. Nerve? Most of this stuff sounds like them.
Just discovered you by the grace of UA-cam algorithms. Have only listened to the first three so far and LOVE THEM!!!! Getting to hear new weird music I haven't heard before is one of my favorite things in life. Thank you so much for what you're doing. Subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
My thoughts exactly!
Been listening to sleepytime for many years. 🤘🏾🤘🏾🔥🔥. Thank you good sir.
Thanks for listening. Did you see my interviews with them?
@@MakeWeirdMusic holy shit no I didn’t. I will definitely check that out you rock thank you so much once again.
I didn't even know they had come back until I heard them in that Best of '24 list you posted. Good deal! Though I shall mourn the loss of Free Salamander Exhibit.
Sleep is still wrong
Really enjoyed this. It’s such a pleasure to be introduced to new music. Roll on the interviews!
Glad you enjoyed it! I'd like to do more videos like this
@@MakeWeirdMusic Please do.
So I have this close friend, his job is more or less creating playlists for companies. He's been listening to 7 hours of music a day, 5 days a week for years... and that's exactly the style of music he listens to now! I guess in some way to "wash his ears", as you eat ginger between two sushis.
My theory: once you've reached a certain stage, you're going to look for really weird stuff because you can't listen to “basics” songs any more! We should call it _ginger music_
Wow, that sounds like an awful job haha. I like the "ginger music" though
@@MakeWeirdMusic terrifying I'll give you that.. although the guy has become a one-man musical encyclopedia (I sent him your video anyway)
Jeez! How do I get THAT job? I can "Cleanse the pallet" when work is done with my own playlists.
Leave Ed Sheeran alone.
@@mvunit3 Come to Paris, he's hiring!
Im "That guy" who has the privilege of only discovering Gentle Giant a year ago. Fresh Ears for me. Now have Power, Freehand, and In'terview. All amazing.
I grew up , as a kid on Weird music. My normal was Isao Tomita, Japan, Mick Karn, White Noise, Tod Dockstader, etc... I'm 51 now.
First album I ever bought was Tomita's "Bermuda Triangle" with allowance at 8
Lucky!! Thanks for checking out the video.
Tomita is amazing. My father brought Pictures At An Exhibition home from the radio station he worked at when I was around 13 and I have deeply appreciated his music ever since. I feel lucky that I was exposed to it at an early age.
Thanks for finding all this great music and sharing it with us. 🤘🏽
Poo ninja! Nice to see you
The joy that comes across your face while listening to some samples is something that your viewers here get.
Thank you.
That's so funny because I was half embarrassed about it.
@@MakeWeirdMusic self-embarrassed in public. 😂 I will put it this way: No experiments would lead to less fun and less chances to find one or another enriching experience. This was my way: About 25 years ago, I talked about that with a Lecturer of poetry in Berlin. He was well educated in modern literature, well situated, and wrote to me, after that talk, that I am "only a Gamma-Scientist with no chance to write good modern poetry ever". 20 years later now, I have published my poems in East-Asia, India, Austria and Germany and won several literary competitions. I studied Biology and philosophy, but no literature. So, who was right? The well educated snob, or the guy who always seeks weird fun?
@@MakeWeirdMusic Don't be. We humans as a group are not usually welcoming to new ways of thinking. Believe me, your lone voice in the wilderness is much appreciated. 🙂
Fantastic!! Thank you!! I'm forever on the search for the new. Hopefully Rick Beato will see this and/or learn of some of material and focus on it vs top 10 apple/spotify cow caca.
Sigh... Believe me, I hear you!
He is worthless.
From someone with an eclectic taste for weird stuff but mostly listening to electronic music, thanks a lot!! Amazing stuff here ❤
Glad you enjoyed
Good selection bro.
Its just as you say, friends coming and sharing new sounds, is the way a melomano enjoys life.
🙋♂️
This guy gets it!
Wow. Poly-rhythms galore! This brings me back to the old days at the Montreal Jazz Festival, roaming around listening to all the street acts... amazing.
Great! Glad you dig it
Man, hanging out with friends who's interested in checking out each other's recommendations sounds like fantasy to me. Even my wife hates jazz, and I'm a pseudo jazz musician
If you're in the Phoenix area, come say hi
@MakeWeirdMusic That's nice, but I'm in the land of Jaga Jazzist, Krokofant, Elephant9, Motorpsycho etc.
Ah, just a hop, skip, and a jump away! :D
my gf hates jazz too. makes no sense. how can someone hate mellow tones with lots of complex emotions?
Lovely weird and great sounding music!
Glad you enjoyed it! Any favorites?
@@MakeWeirdMusic From the ones I had not heard: Brekky Boy, Emma Rawicz, Eyot, Nate Smith (Krokofant I knew was great) I like to sleep was a standout!
Great rundown of music. I will definitely be checking some of that out. Thanks
Thanks Taylor!
Hell yea. Super cool to see Seabrook power plant here, I love a lot of Brandon Seabrook’s other projects like his solo one Sylphid Vitalizers
Thanks for the recommendation!!
I love unique music, i dont tend to keep to a specific style myself, I love strange and unique stuff :)
Music defines My Life!!
The algorithm did it right this time, great channel, amazing music, thank you for sharing all this great artists! Subscribed!
Thank you. Check our back catalog. Hundreds of videos.
Thank you thank you thank you. I am such a lover of weird music and I really appreciate you doing the legwork to help me find more of it! Will be spending a lot of time with this list.
So glad you enjoyed it, Bill. That's very encouraging and I love your enthusiasm for new, interesting music.
I agree, this is a great service to us with not much time to consistently explore new & great "weird" music. This is the modern day version of sharing new music with your friends via word of mouth. Thank you, MWM!
@@BayouMaccabee I just imagined having a friend come over and listening to music together. But in 1-minute clips haha. I’d love to make a whole night of it!
@MakeWeirdMusic If you could do a Zoom live stream (or something like that) with some friends and/or supporters where you talk about & share/review everyone's "new finds" would be a lot of fun.
Or perhaps you could have your subscribers/supporters submit their own suggestions of "new finds" for you to checkout and share your favorites of all submissions with 1-minute (or so) review clips of each one could be fun too.
I've tried that before. UA-cam does not like that. :)
But I've been thinking of doing a "what you guys recommended" video.
Unfortunately, a lot of the stuff people suggested is not appealing to me.
Glad to hear SGM is still going!! I was obsessed with these guys a while back.
They took a decade-long break. Glad they’re back.
Nice man...all interesting stuff...well curated...thx!
Glad you enjoyed it
I've been digging in my heels every once and a while to dig into new music and I keep finding incredible bands. Recently my dig into the Denver Sound which showed me Slim Cessena's Auto Club, Wovenhand and all of Jay Munly's solo projects which leads to me falling back in love with country,weird and questionably country as they may be.
Slim is interesting. Thanks!
Oh yes!! All of those bands are incredible. I had a friend burn me a CD of “GOTHIC AMERICANA” a good few years ago and it had a lot of Slim and Woven Hand on it.
Try Elliott Brood
Lovely Playlist. Thank you.
We are a rare breed loving music like the art it is.
Thanks!
You’re welcome! Go support those artists
Omigawsh a video!!
Immediately I noticed that the Emma Rawicz song intro was lifted from Sheila Chandra’s “Speaking In Tongues I” from Weaving My Ancestors’ Voices, 1992
I'll have to check it out!
I am old enough to be getting John Peel vibes. Fan of Sleepytime. Interesting channel
I don't know John Peel. Will have to look
@@MakeWeirdMusic He was a DJ who played innovative and strange music on the radio back in my youth. I've him to thank for introducing me to the likes of Captain Beefheart and Ivor Cutler etc.
I went to Sweden to see Mattias IA Eklundh last year thanks to you and your fantastic chanell! Thanks! ❣
No way! That’s incredible! He’s so great.
Mat Muntz sent me here, and I'm so glad he did! This is fantastic and inspiring. ❤
Awesome! Thank you! Glad Mat sent you. Pretty funny how someone sent me his music on Instagram and then it gets the ball rolling.
Sooooo much goodness. Thanks for the eye & ear openers!
Thank YOU for your long term support. If I could give honorary club weird memberships, I’d add you
Absolutely incredible collection! Loved all of it, thanks so much for all the new discoveries
Wow, thanks Christian. Enjoy your day!
Awesome playlist. Thanks.
You're welcome
Fresh air among all those ominous "shocking" AI Music UA-cam videos! Thanks!
I’m sure something cool will come from the AI music thing but I’m always gonna cover humans doing great work.
Thanks, a very interesting selection. I'm giving Mat Muntz a listen right now.
One of the things I like about MWM is that the joy, love and enthusiasm for the music always shines through. Best wishes Will in Munich
Thank you, Will! that is so kind of you. I share because I love it. It ain't about the money, I can tell you that. lol
wow, there's some really great stuff here - thanks for sharing it!
You’re welcome Brendan
Kudos. Good work.
Thank yoy
WOW.
Some really great and surprising stuff, right? Any favorites?
I don't like weird for weird's sake. It's indulgent and ego driven. I like weird when it's a natural outflowing of some weirdos pursuit of true expression. Usually they won't find it weird, but rather beautiful or at least personal.
Fine
Some cracking finds in there, thank you ❤️
Glad you dig!
Wow! I really liked your video! I liked the format. You should do more like this. What a joy to discover lots of new groups and artists that I didn't know who make really good music! THANKS!
Thanks so much! I should do one of the recommendations in the comments.
I hear a lot of Zappa and Henry Cow in many of these pieces … not necessarily in the sounds, but it is more than just the time-signatures and complex harmonies, there is a « vibe »
Well, it's all filtering through me, so I'm sure I'm selecting that stuff :)
Indeed, imho the references are so obvious that it makes me question the singularity and subsequently the worth of these "new" music findings...
I owe the uploader of this channel eternal gratitude for introducing me to the Seabrook Power Plant‼I'm still recovering from the SHOCK and AWE of this banjo prog attack! Thank you guys from SEABROOK POWER PLANT! We're not worthy, we're not worthy 😆😆😆... Mama mia😜😝🤪‼
I finally got the interview scheduled with him. Phew! Stay tuned
@@MakeWeirdMusic I will!!!
Omg! I love you! I love everything here! ❤
I love you too!
I can relate. I was smiling ear-to-ear hearing all of your selections. Thank you man!
Awesome! It's funny how some people have this reaction and others thing I'm smug
I mentioned the Nurse With Wound list to you awhile ago.
Henry Cow is one of the 300 bands on it.
If you still haven't looked into it, please take a few minutes and go to the Wikipedia page for NWW List and read over the bands on it.
I know you've likely heard of many of them, but likely there's still some you have not yet.
It was taken from the liner notes of Nurse With Wound's first two albums, BTW, of bands they samples in their work and who influenced them.
VERY eclectic list.
Thank you. I am terrible at following up on this stuff. MWM is a hobby that I only get a little time here and there to focus on.
I’ll take a look.
Thanks for introducing me to these artists! This is my kind of music. It just goes to show how much good music is out there from all over the world. Awesome sauce!
There really is great music everywhere. So glad you enjoyed this.
Please make more of these. This was an incredible intro to some wonderful new bands for me. thank you so much
I definitely plan on it! Thanks!
Thank you for this !! Im so glad i found your channel !!🎶😎❤🎶😎🎶❤
Glad you enjoy it!
Thankyou. So many gr8 tracks
Glad you liked it
Is this a joke? Come on, you are not being serious haha. This stuff is tragic and is pretty much the most extreme examples of why people say music is bad these days. All the good music that can be created has not been created, that myth is a lie perpetuated to give credence to the crap that gets produced these days. There is still good music in all genres, but the internet and modern structure of the music industry does indeed flood the airwaves with sheer dross. Being technically skilled with instruments never means good music, some of the best has been made by novices and some of the worst by the most skilled. Music is a representation of emotion. It’s being able to translate an emotion in music that you have to have, not just being able to play an instrument or the ability to record noises. When you hear something good you know it, even if it’s not in your favourite style. The art just shines through, or at least ideally it should do. Ok so all of these are not rubbish, there is some talent in there, even the bastardised discordant reworking of a popular tv theme tune haha. No idea how this video ended up on my feed but I do love how convincingly you appear to be into this
Sounds like I did my job.
@@MakeWeirdMusic my comment is overly harsh in the beginning, classy response 👍
I’d be interested in what you consider to be interesting or good music.
Ok, you're rather conservative in your tastes, you won't ever like the really great stuff, it's normal
@@shinygritsifter mostly i tend towards alternative, vibrant and melodic aggressive music but i have quite eclectic tastes across genres. I guess i just like what i like.
music has positively, died, devolved. the best sounding examples here aren't at all "new." all the most pleasing experimentation paths have already been treaded.
When was the last time you heard “new” music? Who best represent the “most pleasing experimentation paths?”
Pop music has definitely gotten worse and some styles, like "outlaw country", are mostly gone. But outside of pop music and dead genres, music now is better than ever. You might have to dig a little to find it, but it's there.
King Solomon, in his wisdom, said it best: "There is nothing new under the sun." And that's not necessarily a bad thing.
This is just a braindead comment. All the music you think is "new" still isn't new because we are always rehashing reusing and combining things. You're just one of those guys with an obsession with the past. Refusing to enjoy what the present has to offer is truly pathetic in the deepest sense.
Go beyond the sun, then.
Lots of new-to-me music in here and I'm digging almost all of it so far. Keep the vids (and playlists) coming!
Thanks! I will!
Sooo cool! Thanks for sharing!❤
You are so welcome!
My friend!!!
You’ve come right on time when I’m seeking smt new weird
That’s just gold!!
Amazing how that happens! Enjoy
Thank you
You're welcome
Thanks ! I needed this !
You're welcome. I'm glad you were in need
I just discovered your channel. I found a lot of stuff I liked. Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you!
So inspiring. Thank you so much.
So glad!
Happy I found this channel, great stuff!
Awesome, thank you!
Super vidéo ‼️ super bands ‼️‼️all of them ‼️‼️
Immediately interested n intrigued
Thank you for this! I have your list liked and saved in Spotify and am looking forward to many hours of enjoyment from not only this list but the forthcoming algarithm suggestions. ✌🏼❤️🎶
More playlists coming!
Wow this is so cool!! You've inspired me to continue sharing my weird playlists under Mdribble!
I truly liked 90% of these songs!
Great listening like all any and every one. Tame Impala, The Dirty Three ; just to name 2. Subscribed.
Thank you!
I’ve been interested listening to different music than typical mainstream. Much of my music is influenced not only by prog like Crimson, but also experimental songs I like to fuse genres.
Love it. Glad I found your channel.
Thanks! That makes me glad too
Wow! Stumbled across this video and love your suggestions there’s so much cool music out there with incredibly talented musicians. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I adore Above and Beyond's Group Therapy Radio every Friday. So fresh!
Holy flying pumpkin elbows! You filled my inbox with a month+ of awesome rathole diving. Thanks! Subscribed!
Wow! I guess I should do this more often.
Thnx for sharing
Thanks for liking
Enjoying this selection a lot. So refreshing to have a channel representing different sounding music. We NEED this. Thank you! ❤
Thank you, David! I never intended it to get this popular, but here we are
@@MakeWeirdMusic I think this is a sign of how stagnated popular music has become over the last 15 years. People are desperate to hear fresh and innovated sounds. We are moving towards possitive change finally and your show delivers interesting and creative alternatives. Thank you!
Love this - thanks! and keep on!
You're welcome and will do!
Wow! Thanks for introducing me to the music of Bernice ("He's the Moon"), and others! New subscriber! Lots to listen to!
Thanks and welcome
Nice selections! Cheers mate.
Thanks dude!
Great listen, chief reason for subscription, insightful, thoughtful and meaningful..
Thank you so much. It really does help.
Wow, so much to unpack from this. Thanks so much.
You are so welcome! Next playlist is really nutso
Really, really enjoyed every minute of this video. You blew my mind so many times. Thanks alot 👍👍
Very kind of you. Thanks. Glad you liked it
THANK YOU for the inspiration, this is amazing stuff
My pleasure!
GREAT video, thanks for the awesome recs
🙌🙌
Thank you for taking the time to find new music, and then to make a video about it so I can just chuck it on while getting dinner ready for my family. More of this!!
You are welcome! I have another playlist all ready for June. 🙌🙌
Great display and playlist…. I remember in the early 80s listening to a radio show called Home Grown spotlight I’m glad to find out about you…
Thank you! Now go support the artists
Few great finds here. Keep the content coming! 🙏
Thanks! Lots of other content on the channel
This is superb. So glad I found your channel!!!! : )
Welcome! We have hundreds of videos to check out
good stuff. there will always be good music.
Yes. Contrary to popular belief
What a cool idea.
Thanks for this.
Thank you!
Love this kind of a video. I am hooked on Bandcamp explorations for weird and other music. I make a point of following some some users that I have only a few things in common with for some inspiration in the music feed. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum is great. You put me on to them with the interview, and have some pretty red vinyl in the shelf. Added things to my wishlist. Krokofant is Norwegian prog jazz. Recommend other albums and the somewhat reclusive Rune Grammofon label.
I love Bandcamp and I have a ton of stuff, but they don't do playlists and discoverability is slower/harder.
Thanks for the recommendations!
Thanks for your work...One of the few places to find music that makes my soul smile.
Thank you, Ken!
Mindblow THX
You’re welcome
Finally someone with a channel that has similar taste, cheers
Cheers!
Really enjoyed that. 👍
Glad to hear it!
I really appreciated this video, thank you
You are so welcome!
@@MakeWeirdMusic You're my John Peel. Showing me great new music that I never would have known otherwise. Thanks boss (subscribed obviously)
Finally some good music! Thanks and Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!
