Stuff by Herbie Hancock (Mwandishi) and Julian Priester fit the bill.

Great new interview with Steve Wilson, listing bands he and records he loves. Zeit by TD rates high! And Abba!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hk_KvKC430Y
A surprising omission is Moving Gelatine Plates.
Boy, it's striking how much his guitar sounds like Frank is playing!
I have the new Jinjer, Live in Los Angeles DVD on order now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygb0lWBS_iE&t=2s
6 weeks ago I first viewed the video for Jinjer's song "Pisces" and I posted a thread on it after seeing what their singer Tatiana Shmayluk could do- I was literally struck dumb with awe. Subsequent...
I saw this fascinating article scanning google sites. It is a paper that discusses how they created an algorithm to generate bass lines in any style desired. So, I looked it up and found the link to...
Today it has been:
Jinjer- Wallflower
The move to 107 is only temporary, though. They are referring to it as a pop-up station.
I watched the entire interview with Mohini and found it really interesting- she is pretty voluble but also has great stories to tell.
My favorite clip with her is the one she does with Federico...
Same here! I do not care which version, either.
For me, 1969- which, to the point, I was 16.
We both have to get with it, Duncan!
Meantime, here is live Jinjer, from Hellfest 2022. Pretty good stuff- jagged and angular.

But if I were to...
King Crimson does Jupiter on one of their early DG live discs.
They are worth a listen! I haven't been this excited by a band in years. Honest.
I came here to post a song by Arch Enemy with Alissa White-Gluz singing- she has a more standard metal vocal style...
Hi, Duncan! How've you been? Good to hear from you. I am riding a route in TX Hill Country in April, 300 miles over 6 days. :D
As to the Jinjer video, I am well aware that the growl vocal is part...
Cool- thanks! Will listen asap.
I've never heard of any of these, so will definitely check them out- the value of progears!
There are times when I cannot figure out Magma time signatures. With Meshuggah, I can never figure out the time signatures. It is like they are the Don Ellis of djent!
This was an interesting quote about the time signatures Meshuggah uses: "In polymeters typically used by Meshuggah, the guitars might play in odd meters such as 5/16 or 17/16, while drums play in...
On what evidence? The clip I posted is 6 years old. The band has continued to play all that time, at places like Bloodstock and other events. Until now you had never heard of them- so how is this...
Nothingface is sooooo good!
I posted this on another thread I started, but will post here because this was a metal band I had never heard of until last week. This song has 68 million views, due to the astonishing singer,...
How very postmodern! And of course to him, it is not music, because it does not meet his criteria to be considered music. To the point, I know few people who would listen to any of these bands. The...
Love the song, love the changes, love it all- huge energy, crazy time signatures, and super musicianship. None of these guys are poseurs. They can play!
Look, people like what they like and if...
What the hell time signature is this monster in? What an Adrenalin rush! And listen to Hakke's drumming- amazing stuff!
ANd now I will have to have Chimpspanner as well!
If I read the history properly, it was a member of Periphery who coined the term. I would like to get Tesseract soon; I have Meshuggah and just got a copy of Jinjer Live in Melbourne. I am also not...
I was today years old when I learned of a new to me (but already known) genre of music, djent. I had always assumed that the correct term was math rock, to describe bands such as Meshuggah and others...
I have heard Slayers, which was created by Amber Benson and heavily features Charisma Carpenter. I think it is good and it was a great way for Amber to include people that were hurt by Whedon and...
Okay, so I was toodling around youtube, and began to see a lot of posts where people were reacting to the band Jinjer. Given that I love Diana Ankudinova, just the fact that there was this interest,...
I bet you also liked it when Canned Heat used it. For songs like Jaw Harp Raga?

I honestly am confused. I know I had this on LP long before that. Perhaps he had a different disc. What does discogs say?
Sancious is a great choice!
1976, Shadowfax:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgIMSZ8RpGQ
This will sound a bit churlish, because I just love Mohini Dey- but I am not a real fan of technically gifted bassists using slaps and pops at high speed to little musical impact. Mohini can really...
Dave, 1994 was the remaster. The original came out in the mid-70s.
You should add in Darryl Dobson, The Mind Electric- it is killer fusion. Here is an example (it really kicks in at around 3 minutes):

I value this site more than I will ever be able to say. I have met some in real life- rode RAGBRAI with Duncan, for example- and found simpatico members related to my love of Magma and of other...

When I saw him live, at Michigan State back in the early 70s, he entered the show from the balcony and slid down a rope to the main stage. In my life, I do not think I have ever laughed harder (the...
Thanks for exposing me to a lot of really great music there, Bob, none of which is, well, chickenshit. :D I also appreciate the technical details.
I suspect that when it comes to fuzz bass, the...
I listened to the entire half hour show here and it is actually very interesting and on point, and is not about why all 90s rock sounds alike. It is more about the producers and what they did.
This is akin to comic book collectors who purchase alternate covers of the same issue because they are collectors.
For me, I will buy vinyl now, but only if it is music I want. I do not care if it...
Yeti, yes. But Combat Astronomy, no. Thanks for suggesting!
Man, listen to the second song: Cabine 67.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtmL5K2p3pA
I would not have made this guess- but I also do not think the person Lifeson chose is underrated.
I was first aware of Linda way, way back when I got Sonny Sharrock's first LP. This story from the New York Times today is interesting and heartening:...
Bubu (Phillip Bussonett, Magma).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-3gkIe1oBs
For sure, Kohntarkosz- Magma, any version at all, but the live disc most of all.
The new Glass Hammer disc ought to do the trick.
FWIW, I was at Josey Records here in Dallas, a gigantic used LP and CD store (like the size of a Target). I was chatting with the owner, and in passing he stated quite clearly that he believed CDs...
Scrotum Scissor, while I did not list My Neighbor Totoro on my list, it is only because I like the 2 I did list from Miyazaki better. But you should certainly watch Totoro, for it is an astonishing...
In no order:
Ponette
Super 8
Serenity
The Matrix
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Spirited Away
Tokyo Story

Here is an interview with Al Bodnar.

Zeuhlmate, yes. There is a second video in which the changes are discussed- it has shifted to a story about ecology. And it has Stella comment at the end:
...
Don't mean to shift the topic, but just found this new version of MDK, rewritten again for kids and done beautifully:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXHbfMCHUCc&t=1s
This is a fascinating piece of music. It is from 1973, and combines the beginnings of KA, with the ending of Kohntarkosz. While the quality is not great, you can begin to see how these pieces were...
Brainforest- I grew up in Oak Park (near 9 Mile and Greenfield Rd.), though by 1972 I was at MSU and only home during summers and rare occasions. But I remember the band, whom I also never got to...
Here you go, guys!
