    I’ve been here since literally the first 2 videos or so, when you’re the next brad taste in music don’t forget me. Love the reaction style and open mindedness.
    I will say, if you haven’t done a Radiohead discography run-through, you should, but it doesn’t have to be recorded reactions. In my opinion (what a surprise) Radiohead are an essential experience for people who want to be involved in the contemporary music landscape, just because of the groundbreaking influence that their albums had, but also because a few of them are masterpieces. It’s not just that albums like OK Computer were so ahead of their time, or Kid A subverted all expectations, it’s also the fact they had such a huge reach for a more experimental sound. The fact an album like Kid A reached 1 on the billboard still amazes me.

    Congrats on 1k subs, just want to give the reccomendation boris at last- feedbacker. This album is truly incredible. although technically considered 1 song its split into 5 parts and each part is pretty distinct, while still feeling like a cohesive progression & journey. There are parts that might put you off or be too extreme, but I think its definetely worth giving a shot if you want to hear something very unique and a little more challenging
    also if you do get to this album, just know that it starts incredibly slow and it is worth sitting through part 1 as the album picks up a lot more after that. think of part 1 as more of a ambient kinda mood setter before the music begins

  • @threedeemelodies
    @threedeemelodies Рік тому +6

    spot on with Geogaddi, it genuinely does feel like it transcends music. still highly recommend you get around to their eps/unreleased albums

    I'm so glad you loved "Another Green World"; discovering Eno was such a formative experience for me. If you liked his more ambient tracks you should check out "Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundscapes"- it has some of his most beautiful work and really captures the feel of the title. If you want to hear more of the glam rock sound check out "Here Come The Warm Jets" or "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" as they are both brilliant.
    Another favorite artist of mine that draws some inspiration Eno is the electronica pioneer Aphex Twin. You could start at the beginning with the chill "Selected Ambient Works 85-92" or something a little harsher like the "Richard D. James Album." He is neck and neck with Eno for me- a really original artist. Keep up the great work, not a lot of people are covering music like this it is nice to see some love for composers that fall outside the major fandoms.

      Alright, now that I've heard your whole video (and some of your own songs)- I think we're in the same ballpark of taste. Seven Swans by Sufjan Stevens and Speak For Yourself by Imogen Heap have gotta be on your list to check out if you don't know them already. Very different albums than much of what you've heard so far, but those are almost all pretty influential on Sufjan and Imogen. And if course keep following the artists you've already dipped your toes into. Brian Eno, Sigur Rós, Bjork, Velvet Underground, etc all have some really great work throughout their discography, especially Sigur Rós.

The amount of music you’ve been listening to and your open-minded, chill embrace of new albums and artists is so refreshing and entertaining. I’m excited to see you, your channel, and your taste in music grow! Awesome content, really great list I agree with a lot! Another Green World, Velvet Underground and Nico, and Souvlaki are top 5 albums for me!

    Great vid man and congrats
    I was just wondering over what u exactly mean when you say you don’t find yourself returning to a certain album as much, is it because you don’t find the music it in too compelling so you don’t return to it or is it because you’re not always in the mood for that album even if it’s great because it’s too emotionally intense etc
    And I feel like if the answer is the ladder it shouldn’t take points off the board for that reason and might even be a good reason for why it should be even higher. Anyways keep doing your shit bro

    Brian eno is top 3 best producers oat,i did some digging and found out that slowdive sent a letter to Brian eno asking him if he could produce souvlaki but he said no but that he can help produce some songs,he produced “sing”..so that synth work in the beginning is pure eno. He also produced for talking heads,songs like once in a lifetime etc and collaborated with David bowie alot.

    • @manuelmora26
      @manuelmora26 Рік тому

      But besides that,Enos solo material is otherworldly,like here come the warm jets,taking tiger mountain by strategy,before and after science etc,could definitely see you loving songs like “by this river” “julie with” “on some faraway beach” “Third uncle”. AND his ambient material is a planet of its own.

    If you liked The Velvet Underground & Nico, you might also like their album White Light/White Heat. It's an aggressively noisy album from 1968, meant to piss off hippies who liked the softer sound of their debut. It ended up being a massively influential album in the underground, influencing bands like Sonic Youth and Swans. Sister Ray is an experience
