Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Qobuz HiRes |
This morning... Kate Bush - The Kick Inside, Albert King - Born Under a Bad Sign. |
J. J. Cale - Stay Around - Tidal. Wow! |
Uber - For me one of the best things about the newer streaming services, particularly Tidal and Qobuz, has been the ability to discover new music. For the most part I stopped listening to commercial radio years ago and don't watch much TV, so my new music discoveries have mostly been by happenstance. Now I am checking out new music all the time. |
Trying the Stones Sticky Fingers on the main system. Sounds better. |
Fleetwood Mac - Then Play On |
Alfa Mist - Structuralism - Qobuz |
Radiohead - Pablo Honey - Qobuz
Kedr Livanskiy - Your Need |
Roxy Music - The Best of Roxy Music - Qobuz |
Holly Herndon - PROTO. Trippy! |
One of the "My Mixes" on Tidal - The Cars, Police, Talking Heads, Cheap Trick, good stuff! |
@16f4 Tidal and Spotify both do a nice job of putting playlists together based on my listening habits. Tidal's tend to be more mainstream while Spotify brings up more deep cuts and artists that are forgotten or new to me. Sometimes it's nice to let the machine make the choices! |
Checking out some new jazz on Qobuz - You Can't Steal My Joy, Ezra Collective, and Invincible Nimbus, Anne Mette Iversen's Ternion Quartet.
|
Brad Mehldau - Finding Gabriel, Qobuz Hi Res
|
Eric Clapton - Riding with the King (Deluxe Edition), Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Doobie Brothers - Toulouse Street - Qobuz hi-res |
ELO - Face The Music. I'm going to see "Jeff Lynne's ELO" next week and am pretty excited! |
They're playing in Tacoma at the Tacoma Dome. Not my favorite venue, but if you get close enough (which I am) the sound is good. |
uber, I'm not a big Black Keys fan (I don't dislike them either), but I really liked that album on first listen. |
The Black Keys - Let's Rock - Tidal |
Kraftwerk - The Mix - CD. Some might not care for some of the remixes, but what an aural treat. |
No argument that the original versions of Kraftwerk songs were great as first presented. |
Uber, 10CC seemed to be masters of the studio as well as writing great pop songs. Art For Art's Sake off the album you mentioned and I'm not in love are both great for showing off your system. |
Tunng - Tunng Presents... Dead Club, Tidal |
Donald Fagen's - The Nightfly Live, Qobuz Hi-Res. Why this isn't featured on the front page of Qobuz' new releases is beyond me. |
Listening to Nektar - Sounds like this on Tidal this morning. Also Drift Episode 4 "Space" from Underworld on Tidal. Speaking of bass, I had to put on the headphones to keep from waking up my neighbors. |
I have to admit it confused me too. When I saw the "spinning" topic I immediately thought of vinyl, and "don't we already have a thread for that?". "Streaming" seems like a better descriptor. |
|
Tom Petty - Wildflowers & All The Rest, Qobuz Hi-Res. It's still hard to listen to T.P. without getting a little misty. |
Paul Simon - Graceland 25th Anniversary Edition. Love the alternate version of Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes.
Eric Clapton and Wynton Marsalis -
Wynton Marsalis And Eric Clapton Play The Blues.
Both on Tidal |
Uber, I thought it made nice background music while I was having my morning coffee and doing some reading online, but it didn't draw me in and that will probably be the one and only listen for me. |
Uber - I just listened to Fever Dream this morning. A little "pop" for my taste, but I liked it. Listening to Twister by Leisure this morning. Some chill electro-pop. I like it. |
Tool, Tool, and more Tool. |
I'm listening to 10,000 Days right now - Qobuz |
Elastic S/T. I kind of forgot about them. I watched Captain Marvel again tonight and one of their songs is in the soundtrack. |
That last post was supposed to be Elastica. I think my tablet auto-corrected it and I didn't notice until it was too late. That was a great 90's album! Apparently they only made one other a few years later and that was it. |
Cat Stevens -
Tea For The Tillerman (Deluxe Edition), Qobuz
|
Jon Batiste - Anatomy of Angels: Live at the Village Vanguard
Yes - 50th Anniversary: Live at the Apollo
Qobuz, Hi-Res |
Uber, you'll be close to my neck of the woods. I'm in Olympia. |
That would be cool. I can relate to unpredictable work schedules. |
Listening to Jeff Buckley - Grace (Legacy Edition) this morning. |
The Stones - Tattoo You, Qobuz |
Hawkwind - Space Ritual - Qobuz Hi-Res |
Uber, yes, very cool music, but definitely a little off the beaten path. |
I saw the date when I looked up that release on Qobuz. I guess I'll have to modify that to "new to me"! |
@uberwaltz I liked Veruca Salt back in the day and didn't realize they'd come out with something new. I'll have to check that out.
I sold one of my headphone amps to a younger gentleman in his 20's yesterday and to my surprise, he picked out Steely Dan Aja and Pink Floyd Money to test it out. He inspired me to dial up Aja, Wish You Were Here, and now The Wall (all on Qobuz). |
Uber - the new Iggy is not what you would expect from him. Here's a quote from the liner notes:
"I began to recoil from guitar riffs in favor of guitarscapes, from twangs in favor of horns, from back beat in favor of space,"
You still might not care for it, but it's definitely a departure from what he's known for. Another fun listen is his recent EP with Underworld - Teatime Dub Encounters. |
Iggy Pop - Free, Qobuz. I like it! |
I was listening to Gary Moore's Still Got the Blues this morning. It's been a long time since I have. He was a great talent. |
JARV IS... - Beyond the Pale, Qobuz. I feel like I'm listening to sound-alikes this morning. This guy sounds like a cross between David Bowie and Leonard Cohen. Gin Wigmore sounds a LOT like Amy Winehouse.
