  • Re: USCHO Music Thread 3: They Heard Me Singing

    I have R.E.M. playing today. Songs like "Orange Crush" off of Green and "Nightswimming" off Automatic for the People just remind me of summer.

      The entire Murmur album reminds me of fall, for although I bought it earlier in the summer, it got a lot of play while driving around that fall, the first fall where I wasn't heading off to school. But visiting friends still in school quite often, and this was often playing while doing so.
      What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

        R.E.M. invokes so many lasting memories including for me probably the 2nd best concert I've ever been to at Alpine in 1989 as well as hanging out with friends in jr. high through college.

                  Gin Blossoms - new miserable experience.

                  I was never into this band but recently read the story of Doug Hopkins, their original guitar player who evidently wrote most of this lp including the music and lyrics to all of the hits. What an incredibly sad end to get kicked out of a band due to alcoholism and then watch them hit number 1 with songs he wrote on top of the fact they extorted 1/2 of his publishing rights and all of his mechanical royalties.

                  Listening to the lyrics now reveals a kind of beauty. Power pop with brooding, and refreshingly honest lyrics

                        That same chord progression has been used going back to Bach. I was going through YouTube a couple months ago watching videos on this debate. One guy had a video where it spliced that same chord progression in more than 30 different rock and pop songs, many of them well known, and then it also included a recording of some symphony performing Bach's piece with that same progression.

                          So I've gone and gotten myself hooked on vaporwave.

                          Something those wild Internet kiddos dreamed up. EDM with old 80's/90's synths chopped up and remixed. Think being alone in K-mart at 1 AM or circa 1995 corporate training video, but with more of a groove. There's also lots of imagery of late 80's/90's corporate culture run amok (the idea is the music is kind of poking fun at this stuff.)

                          There's plenty of it a Youtube search away. This video is a pretty good primer.

                            Listened to a sample. I get it, but nah. It's ALMOST there for me, but not quite.
                            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                              I like it as background while I'm web surfing or reading or working - a nice groove to aid concentration, enough there to be interesting, but not too much that it becomes a distraction.

                              Reminds me of when Gran Turismo used to use the cheesy jazz in the menus.
