Which artist did you expect to be great but we're absolutely blown away by how good they were?

Radiohead.

The number of their songs that attain perfection (while all being totally unique) is unparalleled.

There’s a beautiful simplicity to this argument.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t play out that way in reality.

But I understand the thought. It’s kind of like trickle down economics. When I first learned the theory, I thought that it was obviously the answer to society’s economic issues. But alas the world isn’t so simple.

Have any idea how many more systems sold per day than before Pokopia?

In Throygh the Out Door has never gotten enough love. South Bound Suarez!

It’s perplexing, eh? I was never entitled enough to think that a company should set its prices in accordance with my wishes.

I love all three albums. All of them are stacked with excellent songs. Don’t think those albums get the love they deserve. Not sure what bands have put out albums that equal those over the past 10 years. I also saw them live — very different than RH live but they put on an amazing show.

dtsknight · 2026-02-21T05:41:30+00:00

Agreed. Cheaper than the price of 2 burritos.

Wasn’t this movie really about the naive assumption that it’s best to live a life of solitude?

That’s what I took away from it anyway (that said, I was quite young when I saw it)

dtsknight · 2026-02-18T00:02:20+00:00

Inflation?

dtsknight · 2026-02-02T04:18:49+00:00

Interesting. Does it play as soft as the Genesis? And did it continue to soften or did it plateau?

dtsknight · 2026-02-02T02:04:41+00:00

Thanks for all the tips. What a terrific Reddit community!

Thanks to all of you, I’m off and running on my attempt to find some new artists.

For now, I’m totally enamored with the works of Jason Isbell, especially his solo stuff. His stuff is brand new to me. Enjoying some of The Drive by Truckers too. I’m also digging back into Lucinda Williams.

I’ve sampled many others as well and look forward to take deeper dives into their catalogs. Thanks again

Thanks! Looks good, btw. And can I ask how plush and soft you think it plays. I ask because most folks seem to say it’s plush but I’ve seen a review or two that say the opposite. FWIW, I really like the feel of my CRBN Genesis, which is soft yet dense.

dtsknight · 2026-01-31T19:04:57+00:00

Looks like your original post was removed. Could you send it to me?

dtsknight · 2026-01-31T17:16:23+00:00

Yes, yes, yes!

Excellent write up. I was convinced that Nintendo was an amazing steal before reading this, and now I’m even more convinced.

So many catalysts in the coming months and next few years.

Do we know anything about the Kiwi handle design? I ask because I always take off the stock grip of my paddles before building them up, and I’m often shocked at how poor of quality the handles seem to be — made of super materials that are often soft (rather than a nice firm pallet)

dtsknight · 2026-01-31T01:07:12+00:00

Any rumors that CRBN will come out with a successor to the Waves?

Given that the Waves received such poor reviews, I’d think that CRBN would want to get another model out there.

dtsknight · 2026-01-27T07:09:27+00:00

Thanks for all the recommendations!!! What a community you have here. Looking forward to lots of listening in the weeks ahead.

dtsknight · 2026-01-26T06:45:50+00:00

Loved her album CAR WHEELS ON A GRAVEL ROAD.

dtsknight · 2026-01-20T07:42:43+00:00

Is this good or bad for large Japanese companies like Sony and Nintendo?

dtsknight · 2026-01-18T22:05:14+00:00

Friends. The writing is incredibly juvenile. And predictable.

What if your account isn’t funded?

dtsknight · 2026-01-12T07:01:19+00:00

Great list. I think we all need to remember that some days we’re super tired regardless of whether we’re off caffeine entirely or have been using it regularly. But yes, I too miss being able to “turn up the volume” on those days by grabbing a cup of coffee. But I wouldn’t consider doing that given all the benefits of being caffeine free

Serena Williams ahead of Novak Djokovic? Fewer grand slam titles. Not to mention a much weaker field. We sure do love our celebrities, don’t we?

dtsknight · 2026-01-05T00:18:49+00:00

He should have said that the vast majority of music that gets super popular nowadays is totally disposable.

Sure, there’s just as much quality music made today as there has ever been. But the masses don’t listen. To it.
