What "Other" music do you listen to/recommend?

SM001

Millsy Being a DJ during the Northern Soul era must have been great craic.

A couple of mixes I did years back if anyone fancies a listen. Not much in the way of mixing just a bunch of tracks I enjoyed.

bosstrabs Trisco’s Muzak for me

Is the right answer.

Listened to a lot of Tool during lockdown. I do try and scour Spotify for film soundtracks and the like. Tbh I really struggle finding anything that really jumps out at me when I’m shopping at Traxsource, maybe it’s an age thing I really hope it isn’t and it’s just a shit phase of house music

This is a stunning piece of music

This could easily have been written for a film

nicksneddon I love Tool! Have all their albums and got to see them live in January.

The Doves. Their back-catalogue is great as are the latest songs from their new album

Been enjoying this stoner rock band called Dead Meadow - discovered them on The Wire. Decent enough to just hit play and let the whole albums play out. Almost like Mars Volta meets the Grateful Dead.

also been on a War on Drugs binge, no filler albums.

The new Tool album is brilliant too.

Otherwise, got Guru’s Jazzmatazz series on repeat. Way ahead of its time.

SM001 mostly first-time listens on Spotify, if I like what I hear I purchase on iTunes. Got way too many playlists on my iPhone to give up on Apple.

Listen to loads of music. I have most albums from Prince, Depeche Mode, Talking Heads, Weller, Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, The Cure, Tame Impala, QOTSA, Radiohead, New Order, Bjork, PSB, NIN. Have a big vinyl disco and rare groove collection which is probably my first love.

alistair what about a bit of jazz A? Any Coltrane or Miles in there - a bit of bill evans?

I quite often find Marc Riley is on 6Music when I’m ferrying the lad about of an evening - well before March anyway - and I’ve rediscovered that love of guitar based indy stuff - the latest ones being Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs etc., Savages , - Idols - sort of punk but not. Not as good as The Ruts obviously.

baggers44 Oh …and I used to fucking hate Pink Floyd with vengeance but having listened to Radiohead I can sort of see how they were a big leap forward at the time and find myself drawn back to it.

alistair

baggers44 I haven’t gone there mate, not yet anyway. Love Floyd, Beatles and Stones too. Wish you were here, DSOTM and Animals are all great.

My Favorite Things is one of my fav. Also: Archie Shepp and David Murray.

I’ve just listened to Jaco Pastorius’ debut, great album.

alistair They are great. I think they fell victim to the musical tribalism which used to abound at school. If you liked the Jam , The Who and Small Faces then Led Zeppelin and PF were way off side - with their greasy long hair, motorbikes and snakebite associations . All a bit Quadrophenia!

Set the controls for the heart of the Sun - it blew me away when I heard it only a couple years ago. Years before it’s time . I only heard it when Gerber nicked it for a remix.

alistair Have a listen to Kind of Blue - its a sort of sit on your own of an evening with a glass of whiskey type of experience …..

alistair

baggers44 remember school tribalism. Lads hated George Michael at primary school cause the girls loved him. Dismissed him and met my missus in mid 90’s who is a fan so made me listen. Realised he was a bit of a genius

baggers44

alistair he is! he wrote all the songs and sang them with that voice - was amazed when he went solo and realised he was a bit more versatile than Wham Rap! Tbf - he had shown signs of it before - he wrote careless whisper when he was 17 on a bus journey between Bushey and Watford - as you do!

Dan

Neil Young is a firm fave
