Washington DC's Darkest Hour. Right now I'm listening to Hidden Hands of a Sadist Nation, but I'll probably listen to their entire discography tonight. There isn't a song they wrote that I don't like.

 

And your favourite?

I am having the most frustrating morning due to music.

 

I woke to find my phone alarm going off and this great track playing. I was actually quite enjoying it despite it not being familiar. Started out as dub reggae with brass band New Orleans jazz feel then moved effortlessly into a much more modern rythmic style and sung vocals.

 

Then I remembered I don't have the radio aerial for my phone. I WAS DREAMING! So I desperately tried to simultaneously wake up and yet stay asleep enough to retain some of the tune and lyrics. In teh end all I could remember was the chorus and ending rhythm. Of course I can't write music, so I was forced to sing it into my dictaphone. I'm now wondering how the hell I can reassemble the rest of the tune and make millions. :lol:

 

I've been listening to any tune with similar lyrics (there aren't any with identical lyrics) and you wouldn't believe how many songs there are with the title "What you want". Including, ironically, one from an album entitled "You may already be dreaming".

 

To give you a feel for the first part think spoken word rap overlaid on a mashup of yorkshire brass band and NO jazz. Then go towards Soul Assassin rhythms with motown vocal elabroations, returning to spoken word. Got it? Ok, now imagine it's actually good.

 

That does sound fantastic. I love me some N.O. jazz.

Thanks, Drabek, but I'm not sure you'd have liked the later transition to the hiphop feel. the whole thing was pretty weird, even if I did wake up still humming the tune. :lol:

I'm listening to all of the Tiger Lillies albums in chronological order. I may go a bit weird as a consequence.

I'd like to take a moment to pay respects to an artist who shaped the way I listened to music. RIP Alex Chilton, you will be missed.

 

There is no better homage than this:

So, I checked my most played list and found this on top, and, having not listened to it for quite a while, wondered why it was there and thus listened to it again.

 

I no longer wonder why it's there.

It's a pity for earth as it is full of fascists claiming to be democratic.

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
