What Are You Listening To Now?

The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

*anotheredit* hm - really quite dull, if i'm brutally honest :?
Yeah must admit when i was listening to it I thought to myself this certainly isnt the tune to get Memly out of room 6 and onto the floor.... :P :wink:

Heard the new single on the XFM yesterday, instantly recognised it as the Icelandic imp. Sounds good, will try & get the album.

Definately check out Hafdis Huld then, also from Iceland (she used to sing with Gus gus & FC Kahuna).
She is on myspace http://myspace.com/hafdishuld and does a cracking cover of 'who loves the sun'

Currently listening to just that 8)

Bob Marley - The Yvette Acoustic Tape.
Recorded in one of Bob's girlfriend's houses this tape includes many songs that Bob never released and some that would become some of his most famous classics. The mood is really relaxed and Bob seems to be in a really great mood often laughing out loud at some of the things he is singing. He then gets a bit more serious with the deeply religious God of All Ages where he is accompanied by the heartbeat rhythm of a bongo drum. Rumors is also another great highlight featuring some fantastic vocal form. Bob on this tape also composes some of jammin as well as a very early rendition of Easy Skanking. He also chats a bit between songs about opening a hospital
in Ethiopia. The tape closes out with Oh What a Day, which is a long very early version of what would become Misty Morning.

Listening to Ulrich Schnauss new album, no doubt this is a very strong contender for album of the year.

Schnauss magic lies in his ability to do a track like "Shine" that on the surface appears like pure cheese, but he twists and turns the arrangements so that by the end I am left positively gobsmacked.

I'm just amazed at how he manages to rise his level. He has put out some fantastic CD's before, but "Goodbye" is propably his best effort to date. The guy is a genius, no doubt about it!

Let me also sing the praise of Seefeel's Quique redux reissue which is right around the corner.

Plainsong and Industrious are choice tunes, as fresh as the day they were baked :D

Bjork - Volta - I had neva really been a fan of hers but have been listening to some of her older stuff and remixes lately and she has really grown on me. This new album is fab - only track i dislike is Declare Independence , other than that - big thumbs up :applause
