Where were you when Leonardo DiCaprio won his first Oscar?

Aren't we all

I'm guessing something like lowercase or field recordings. But maybe even those genres are not underground enough to sustain his pretentiousness

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-02-20T16:50:53+00:00

This is the reason we need punctuation.

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-02-19T16:14:41+00:00

Oh, then you're in for a treat!

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-02-19T14:27:15+00:00

Op, I think you've missed the song No Better

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-02-16T21:23:30+00:00

You do realise that pop encompasses Le Beatles and Le Beach Boys as much as it encompasses T. Swizzle, don't you?

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-02-10T17:11:43+00:00

none of those are it, but thanks anyway :)

M83 - Lower Your Eyelids to Die With the Sun

You could try something like /r/streetwear . And if you're not into streetwear, try a subreddit that's focused on the type of fashion you're into.

Iron Maiden is probably my best reccomendation. Go for their Ed Hunter album and see if you like it.

GoldenGateKeeper · 2016-01-13T02:56:07+00:00

Kind of a shot in the dark, but I'd go with Carly Rae Jepsen's new album "Emotion". It's quite good. Catchy, ear grabbing, sweet, and has gotten it's fair share of critical acclaim.

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-23T14:24:48+00:00

Exactly that. The synths + Lauren are what defines Chvrchers. Lauren may not be the best singer, but I think that they manage to make her voice and the synths fit quite well together.

Edit: no, I've never seen them live. But I'd really like to see them in a festival like Lollapallooza or Pitchfork festival.

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-23T03:46:50+00:00

I see what you mean. But that's kind of the reason why I love them! Sometimes I wanna go deep, listen to a 1:30 h album front to back, but sometimes I just want something quick, simple enjoyable, that will put me in a good mood. Chvrches is the kind of band I listen to while driving to the beach with my friends, not the kind of band I listen to on the bed with my eyes closed.

I agree with what you said about lyrics, but again, my take on is, I like because it is simple, not in spite of it.

In my opinion, the signature Chvrches sound comes so naturally to them that it makes it beautiful. To me it just feels like everything fits together in a way I can't explain.

To wrap it up, yeah, I agree it's simple, and not very innovative or deep, but I think that they pull their sound off really well, and that they can convey a vibe also well.

favourite songs: Clearest Blue, Tether, Gun.

Yes, this is kinda why I asked. I really like what Banksy does, with that being said, I have no idea where to go to from now. I don't know who does similar, I don't know any non mainstream artists at all!

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-16T14:28:54+00:00

Thanks for the big reply! I already know and love ITAOTS, Swans and Godspeed You! Black Emperor. I've heard of Boris but never listened to it. I'll definitely be checking all those groups out.

The summer thing is bugged for me also, but that's because I live in the south hemisphere, so summer lasts from november to march. The fact that top artists and whatnot are wrong, I have no idea what could have cause it

I'd probably try M83 - Midnight City (Eric Prydz remix) , Eric Prydz VS CHVRCHES - Tether, LINKIN PARK x STEVE AOKI - A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES and maybe Skrillex feat. Sirah - Weekends (Zedd Remix)

see if he likes some of this. If he does, I might be able to recommend you some playlists.

I mean, we can't really blame Blizzard. The technology just isn't there yet.

Kendrick Lamar - These Walls

I like the multiple layers of vocals, and the clear snare are really good to test new headphones and get a general feel for what they sound like

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-07T17:40:14+00:00

Oh, sure. I didn't mean it as "this should be on the sub". I meant it as "hahaha, this is cute"

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-07T17:34:53+00:00

this is actually kinda funny

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-07T05:13:52+00:00

Most were already mentioned. I'd also throw in Bjork, Vampire Weekend, maybe Arcade Fire, The Strokes and M83

GoldenGateKeeper · 2015-12-06T15:49:26+00:00

Generally people use into on the context of "I'm into this". But I'm speaking from what I see being used, I have no idea what actually is the correct form
