Hey yall, who you gonna call?... Here's my timely take on "Ghostbusters", by Ray Parker Jr.! Filmed live in the beautiful Black Hills, it was eerily exciting, conjuring up this mother-nature-music-video!đŸ‘»With some spooky scenes from the ghosttown of Spokane, and a spellbindin' view of Lakota Lake in East Custer, SD! Please, sing along with me, and have a Happy Halloween!!! 🎃 https://youtu.be/pk60026Ntv0

I highly suggest, if you don’t speak Basque or Spanish, listening to track five on this album first first and then reading the spoiler below.

Mursego: Bi (the track Hegaluzea Pistoarekin, which apparently I can’t link directly, but it should play if you press play at that link)

After running the lyrics through Google Translate, then asking a Basque-speaking friend because I didn’t believe it, I can confirm that this is >!the most intense recipe for tuna with pesto in the world!<.

“TiK-taK-tiK-taK-tiK-taK-tiK-taK”

Albatross Birdbath by Steel Beans this dude blew up recently because of a video of him playing one of his tunes on guitar and drums at the same time while singing so I jumped into his other stuff and damn he has a lot of great music

Top 40 “corporate bullshit” was the only way to do things for a looooong time.

You’re excluding decades of music that some people would probably like to post and are still obscure, cool, against “the man”, etc etc.

Hey Matt - Good Luck

The lyrics to this song makes me very grateful to be alive and loved. It's an excellent reminder that we all have our own struggles, personal demons, and aspirations. This whole album is worth listening to many times and I hope it speaks to others as much as it does to me.

Just dropped a new music video for my song JUICE. The song picks up in energy but is overall a 'chilled' trip hop/trap song. It's basically about keeping your head up and having the confidence to keep pushing forward in a world filled with uncertainties. If you guys end up checking it out hope you enjoy! ;)

Replying to [deleted] (#363,633)

I’m not 100% sure how I feel about it (the lyrics were a little hard for me to make out, though I do enjoy the Lo-Fi sound of the vocals). The music is interesting. It felt a tiny bit too
. Twee-excessively quaint or sentimental? I think that’s the word I’m looking for. But that may just be a personal preference issue. There were definitely elements of the music I enjoyed, but I’m not sure I can specifically say what they were. I really liked that it had the feel of some of my favorite songs where it just slowly builds and builds and repeats a certain refrain over and over until the end of the song.

(I’m thinking “Hey Jude” by The Beatles “Hellhole Ratrace” by Girls “Oh Sweet Nothing” by The Velvet Underground. Those all fit the format I’m talking about)

I enjoyed the metaphor for the relationship’s end that you used throughout. It fits because of the unreal grief we feel after both of those events.

Don’t know if you were looking for a critique, so I apologize if you didn’t want a critique like that. I’d say overall I enjoyed what you created. I’m glad I listened. Keep making new shit!

Just released the newest single of our band, Heartbreak Cinema. It's called I KILL EVERYTHING I TOUCH and it's a blend of metal, orchestral and electronic music, so it's what I like to call a "cinematic headbanger". It's got a female lead and it's about the eternal fight with your inner demons and the inevitable acceptance of having your fate dictated by them. Hope you all enjoy it!

Enjoyed this one, the monotone drumbeat and the song structure reminded me of I Monster. I like the guitar lick and how that 80's synth pad comes in near the end. Good stuff! I'll check out the rest of your songs on my commute today.

Jeremy Soto - “Timeless”

The first verse is written from the perspective of my partner who passed away to suicide last December, I wanted to capture what he would say to me and his family if he could talk to us. The second verse is my answer to him. Thanks in advance for listening đŸ™đŸ»

Chances upon a Norwegian alt-rock band called Madrugada. Really good music. Recommended tracks - Vocal and Majesty.

Dj Death - Resigned Discipline

Hypnotic rhythms woven into a mystic lofi techo filled with woozy fraying ribbons drown in vivid grimy color

Ossa - Exit Language Translator

Dreamy peels of kosmische energy seeping between crunchy glowing grooves of velvet ambient tech

MEGAS - Lunaire

Woozy synthwave made of rippling crystals and jellied neon drenched in a dreamy cyber tropic chill

These and other albums are posted with embedded players on my wordpress. There’s also previous week's recommendations and a lot more music to discover. You can also check out my twitter where I post all the good songs that I discover daily.

Wild Crazy Bananas - Good Sense Prelude Instrumental - https://youtu.be/MkZGdmPlwfo

"Good Sense Prelude" is a small collage of attempted keyboard tracks from a song released last week called, "Good Sense".

"Good Sense"

Release last Friday - 10/21/22
https://open.spotify.com/track/3TzkiBIW8vs1b0ige6RD3H?si=8441f67f1ef14c56
http://itunes.apple.com/album/id1646773340?ls=1&app=itunes

Description of video "Good Sense Prelude"

In the software I use, when I am recording, I'll at times move tracks off to the side

that I'm not ready to delete. My software was just going along the timeline when it

came across my discarded tracks and they were layered in such a way that I found very

pretty yet sad. A sample of the completed track is at the end of this video.

Hope you guys enjoy this one.

This is our second single for an upcoming EP release. After several other musical projects falling through, a friend and I started collaborating and working on the kind of music we've always been into: NIN, Depeche Mode and other Post-Punk hallmarks.

It's poppier than our influences, but check it out and let me know what you think.

I'm a dude in the middle of nowhere in Ireland, been trying to get a band going but there's certainly many challenges.

Right now it's just me n my Friend who play guitar to various degrees and our other Friend who sings n as there's no drummer we take turns playing the drums like shit.

Anyway check out these 2 recent recordings if you wish n let me know what you think.
