Always a favourite topic of mine As the year is approaching it's end, new releases become scarce, it's time to reflect and post your favourite albums released this year. Only albums first released in 2022 are eligible. Post as many or as few as neccessary, lists are acceptable of any number. This topic will open on 1st December

Surprisingly good isn't it? I'm off to see them on Friday, hope it's a good one.

Not quite 2022 yet but here's what to look forward to from Adrian Sherwood Not listened to it all yet but it does seem that the Horace Andy album is finally going to be released and its the first track on the On-U Sound Sunday Roast Xmas Special, hosted by AMS himself (as he does every year) and he previews what is coming up in the next year (and very often doesn't ) Full show here It's not all that reggae stuff either. EDIT: 2nd Jeb Loy Nichols album produced by AMS sounds nice New Mark Stewart album and a new PIAB Vol 8 Brand New African Headcharge album First new Tackhead Album for 30 Years - OMFG! The track he played on this was in collaboration with LSK but definitely has Skip McDonald in Little Axe mode written all over it Even more amazing than a new Tackhead album a brand new Creation Rebel album, thats 40 years since the last one and that sounds brilliant Unreleased material from Andy Fairley (Long deceased Bristol poet and On-U artist) that they just found on hard discs - the track on this show is phenomenal, spine tingling stuff Unreleased Lee Scratch Perry track will be on PIAB Vol 8, one they held back from the last recording session featuring LSK and Skip McDonald Hell I'm not even half way through it yet and I'm VERY excited already

I could swear we already had one of these, but a quick search yields no results. Anywho, having only just realised that kingysilver's band had an EP out last year (that I totally forgot to look into until yesterday ) and having already been enjoying juanpabloangel18's musical endeavours for some time, I'm keen to have a listen to some more output from our VT brethren. So I invite the creatively-inclined amongst you to hawk thyselves in this very thread. All abilities/styles welcome, even if it's something as basic as recreating the works of The Wurzels through jug-blowing (I'm looking at you, Farmer Eames).

Prompted by discussion in the General Chat topic.... Which xmas songs or tunes are your favourite and which do you despise?

Inspired by the 80s music challenge thing that's going about Facebook at the moment, let's have an 80s party! Post your favourite 80s tunes, and let's dance! Only one rule, songs must have been originally released between 01/01/1980 & 31/12/1989. Other than that, have at it! Lets kick things off...

Primal Scream, 5th October, Maida Vale yay, I wonder if it'll be 'best gig ever scream' or 'car crash abomination scream' that turns up?

I only ever use Spotify to discover things I've never heard before I decide whether I want it or not. I doubt the new rules will affect me that much tbh. Like D1 I do like some of the apps, I use Pitchfork / Guardian / LastFM ones mainly

Birmingham's Music Scenes past and present. Who are some of your favorites, past and present? As an outsider looking in, to me Birmingham seems uncommonly blessed with an incredible music history. I'm just obsessed with certain parts of it I know. I don't know why exactly. The whole two-tone thing is the best. Just can't get enough. There are so many names I've heard of and love (Dave Wakeling is a favorite of mine), but many are surprises to me. The more obscure the better, even if they're unsigned or pub covers bands and DJs, etc. -- I don't care. Feel free to expand it out to West Midlands. If you have links to videos, I'd like to see. The late Tony DeVit is my third cousin, actually. Sadly died before I met him.

basically people its a thread for original songs covered by other artists. they may be brilliant or shit but post them on here.

Following on from the films thread. I'm a big fan of Peter Gabriel, and when my dad died we asked for the song "Father, Son" to be played at the funeral. My God I bawled my eyes out. We went to see the "Growing Up" tour a couple of months later, and at the end, it's just PG and a piano, I just knew I would be in floods, and of course I was. Even typing this is a bit hard. Also , another one is Britney's "Everytime". But you have to watch the video, as it helps make sense of the song. I'm sure there are others........ So, What about you lot? Cheers Nick

Inspired by a thread elsewhere on t'internet, I thought this was an interesting question because I'm sure everyone has an answer. While everyone has artists that they can't stand and songs that they can't stand, is there a song you can't help but love from one of those same artists that you ordinarily switch off? Go for it music lovers. EDIT : To clarify. It's not even a 'guilty pleasures' thread because that implies the artist(s) is(are) in some way unfashionable to start with. This is just any artist, trendy or otherwise.

OK, this may die on its feet, or end up being just me, Xann and theunderstudy (same thing, I suppose). But this is the place for "classical" (in its widest sense) music discussion - what you like, what you hate, recommendations, questions, general chat. Me? Currently grooving on that Stravinsky box set I mentioned in the "cheer you up" thread. Anybody else listening to this stuff?
-
Thought I'd flip it on its head I hate that song, the song that made them properly mainstream but its a bad pub band / karaoke song that took them a couple of albums to recover from, it's a horrible song Also special shout out to roll with it and Country House, 2 of the worst singles those bands released

What is that 1 song you love by that 1 artist you hate?
KentVillan replied to BOF's topic in Off Topic
Not quite the same as a one-hit wonder, as doesn't need to be a "hit". But what's a great song that you loved by an artist / band you thought were terrible? -
Let's hear 'em

We have a top 10 films and artists thread, so I thought it'd be interesting to list our top 10 albums(or however many you can manage; it's bloody difficult). I think that it's quite interesting how our top albums might be from different artists to those in our top 10. In a random order: Aja - Steely Dan Close to the Edge - Yes Thriller or Off the Wall - Michael Jackson Morning View - Incubus Lateralus - Tool Deloused in the Comatorium - The Mars Volta The Nightfly - Donald Fagen Total Life Forever - Foals Crack the Skye - Mastodon Undecided on which Porcupine Tree album to put here. (apologies if this thread has already existed)

What are some of your favourite soundtracks of all time?* However uber-hipster obscure or commercially popular—it's all good. (Maybe it's just one single song from a soundtrack, too, such as Lulu's "To Sir, With Love," etc.) Please just add a YouTube link if available in whole or part! Always looking for a good film soundtrack to add to the playlist. Thanks! * Edit: Games soundtracks welcome, too!

Pagoda Park, that takes me back. The Powerhouse (became the Ritzy I think) then Wobble and the one by the Market open until 6am, Tin Tins?

Hello everyone and welcome. With all the music chat appearing in the things you don’t get thread, general chat etc, I thought a thread for general music discussion might be useful. My intention with this thread is that it would be different to the “what song/album I’m listening to” or “new music” threads as it wouldn’t be video after video which, sometimes, I find a bit of a pain to scroll through. More a place where we can chat broadly about whatever band you’ve found a new appreciation for, which band you should have liked in theory but never could quite get into, whether you’ve just seen a BBC four documentary and you had no idea that singer was on that particular drug at the time, whatever... By all means link a video to back up why you think that song by that band you like is great...but generally just chat I was thinking. This thread may well die an early death, but I thought it was worth a go. So there’s this band Coldplay who look like they might be going places...

Where's the junglist and the dubsters at on VT? Gimme a holla, I know you're out there somewhere, what's your preference? I love downtempo, electronic, dub, reggae, uk hiphop, jungle, anything the NME aren't keen on, looking for some more reggae to discover at the mo, I've rinsed the Jah Cure album to death now.
