need new muzak

[Karel]

I feel like for the past 7 years I've been on that kick of surf music, doo wop (modernized or the slowed down and creepy), 50's garage, some lo-fi proto-punk, etc.

That seemed to be a trending thing for awhile, now it's turned on its head to similar sounding pedal effects but far more ambient. I thought I dug it, and sometimes I still do, but it all feels like a wash now. Some of it just sounds like it has far too many layers and it just drags on in a way that's not interesting at all. Sometimes I like a long drag, but these kind of ambient effects just gets me wishing the song would be over already.

I want something new that I can still feel in my bones, but I don't know what that it is or what it sounds like. Spotify has forced everyone's taste into the direction of the above and I want to be free of that.

help

I am also partial to folk but only particularly. I like older country, Waylon Jennings especially but I haven't dived into him beyond his album Hangin' On

[The Hand That Fisted Everyone]

If you like Waylon listen to Old Five and Dimers by Billy Joe Shaver

[Mando Pandango]

idk man spotify still gives me good shit sometimes but I push it in a way different direction. Been digging Crumb, which is along the lines of what you're describing.



this goes for everyone: listen to steely dan

Listen to Steely Dan

thanks i'll check out crumb


one time at a coffee shop i was a regular at had a Steely Dan song playing, the barista was cute and eye fucked me and flirted with me sometimes, and she could tell I liked what was playing. She asked me, "Do you like Steely Dan?" and my first thought was that I had no idea Steely Dan sounded like this but it sounded great. And I was like "Heck yeah" because I wanted to express interest in similar things as her even though she had a boyfriend and I had a girlfriend, but with a relationship or not, sometimes you just want approval and validation though it won't mean anything beyond that.

In Steely Dan, I sought that validation, and now I need to own up to it

how do you feel about something like Boards of Canada?

[Karel]

some of what I listened to of Steely Dan was fun and interesting but my interest waned after 3/4th thru of Aja, maybe I'll try again

the Yacht Rock video was great, tho, wew

Boards of Canada is too ambient for my taste flavor profile at this time, I think I would like to rock
