whats your favourite 1950s jazz album?

Contrappunto dialettico alla mente (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 30 September 2014 14:39 (ten years ago)

whats your favourite 1950s jazz album?

My favourite jazz era is 1960s so I'll give you an answer in there. Firstly to discount Miles as I'm not a fan per se. tl;dr answer would probably be Blues & Roots. At least it's probably my most played. This earth era is all about trane and basically every trane album in this decade is spiritual experience and an apex of human art history. my opinions sway on the best releases but I'll say I think there are several better than Blue Train. Personal favourite of Coltrane is Africa/Brass lp and even better if you look up the original recordings. Meditations era is like a late era Miro on my wall, chastened genius aerified but I maybe don't like looking at it every day.

And Nina's Pastel Blues goes somewhere near the top too.

He's not American though.. officially. British passport, born/raised in London till 12, British parents, raps with a British accent, was deported back to England by US government. Was going to say this is ridiculous and what matters is being in New York at the time but then again he was so different in everything he did big argument to be made for his Britishnessness being the key to that I guess.

went to central london on the weekend, awful, gentrified, commercial, corporate, achingly emptily cool desperations, selfie sticks, $15 organic single organic cookies, no cafes, zero independants, zero young locals, 100% tourists and rich families. Really you have to go quite far to the outskirts now to find any real people or places in London. Theres miles and miles of corporate desert and it's soul destroying. Other than Bodean's there's no where to even eat. The actual independant places are just hipster run offs frequented by yuppie clients selling nothing. You've got this street Carnaby Street famous in the past for hippie culture and swinging 60s and mods and independent boutiques and you get there and it's fucking filled with Puma and Adidas stores, wtf? They play up it's heritage and put that shit all along it. Soulless. Pay £10 for a tube day pass, get onto the most grotty disgustingly unclean underground trains in teh world in my experience. Had to walk around South Kensington for a bit, just a pile of rich shit and yuppies and dead eyed tourists how can anyone stay sane there?

Cities I generally find disgusting depressing places, but I have never been more depressed and dispossessed and lacking in confidence in humanity by a City than last weekend in London.

this thread inspired me to go back to trane. man, the opening beauty of “spiritual…” it’s like a dream i had: i floated on the river nile, smokin’ some fresh weed, relaxin’. but i ain’t ever gonna see the nile anyhow. this track’s as close as i come, and it’s close enough. best of the best, though, has gotta be “india.” it’s only when you listen to a perfect old jazz tune like this that you realize how much drum-n-bass is derived from this music. trane takes it to heaven and back with some style, man.

Hard to find in these parts. That brewery (Goose Island) has another that's easier to find though, India Pale Ale. I actually prefer American Craft to English Ale.

Raccoon, I think you should revise that opinion. I went to Central London recently and there were some hipsters and they were all drinking American craft beer. I'm pretty sure they were hipsters. They were acting kind of soulless, you know? A bit corporate.

Maybe I'll start posting in here whenever I drink alone.

Moka, Saturday, 6 December 2014 09:35 (ten years ago)

Moka, how is your bar doing? Are the musically-named shots selling well?

some kind of terrible IDM with guitars (sleeve), Saturday, 6 December 2014 09:41 (ten years ago)

Yes, they are! So well in fact that I opened a second bar this year and I'm going for a third next year, just looking for the right location.

besides the common shots, we had 10 specials shots that you guys helped me name.... I had to cut a couple to reduce time/stock. Unfortunately I had to let go 'Barracuda' and 'Tago Mago' which were my favorite in terms of name but the ones that required more time to be made and they weren't that popular.

Moka, Saturday, 6 December 2014 10:00 (ten years ago)

I also get to play my music on both bars (the first is a mixed bag of everything I like without paying attention to genre, some people
might hate it for trendy (the few big mainstream artists I have in that playlist are usually in deep
cuts that rockists always complain about) the second is mainly focused on soul/jazz/blues/funk/rockabilly but we have house djs now and then and an awesome blues/rock band on weekends)

At first few people understood what I was going for with the second bar and thought it lacked the 'boho hipstery" vibe of my first bar... I think they were expecting it to be more focused on rock music when I was thinking more about a place where I can chill while listening to soul music. The place looks gorgeous and cozy so eventually we found an audience and we're now packed in both venues.

The third place will be brazilian inspired. Tropicalia and filled with colors and flowers and all those things.

Moka, Saturday, 6 December 2014 10:17 (ten years ago)

Rockists that come expecting to hear Freebird and all those classic rock songs which I don't intend to listen to for the 2000th time in my life seem dissapointed but we compensate with lots of beautiful women in my bars. Our audience in both is mainly women (which makes it miles better for me, I'd hate to be the only girl at an all dude's bar rocking to ac/dc) and I dont know if it works the same in the US/UK but if the ladies come to your bar the men will follow.

Moka, Saturday, 6 December 2014 10:28 (ten years ago)

I mean dissapointed because as I mentioned earlier they'll approach me asking for something like Red Hot Chili Peppers and then come back after I played something like Walkabout because they want a popular one but I have none.

XP if by "dead" you mean "no longer the be-all, end-all of music criticism, if it ever was, which is itself an extremely dubious fucking proposition," then yes. its just an online music mag. nothing more. few pieces of good writing on it here and there. fair amount of shit writing there as well.

the only people who were stupid and naive enough to think it or any other music review website/blog/etc. would or could remain pure and unadulterated by some sort of compromise or advertising are, well, chris ott, along w/ the anthony fantanos & byron crawfords of the world. which is why they're on these moronic "ethics in music journalism" crusades in various forms. nuki fits right in.

anthony fantanos is funny because I met lots of people from his area in CT that had the same skewed music-didn't-exist-prior-to-early-00s-emo/post rock perspective of music. Not that that has anything to do with what we're talking about. Just more thread derailing.

ILX social norms not "vastly more interesting" than - anything. People were inexplicably talking about me on a thread I had no part in. I wanted to know what it was all about. initials I thought were acronyms = my trying to figure out why. Personal rather than general interest.

Sorry that I don't follow every little spat on ILX. If I was having a fight with somebody that day, for example, I didn't have any reason to think I was. Search functions exist, go show me what obvious thing was going on worth reviving this thread that day.)

Having scanned this thread, I will say the continued group paranoia regarding who posters "really" are is revealing, kind of interesting.

The banning system was not functioning at the time that he was accruing multiple FPs. Stet said that he didn't know how long it would take him to fix it. As a work-around, since RT was continuing to be a problem for a LOT of posters, we deleted his account. RT re-registered as Arctic Noon Auk and once banning was fixed we banned that account.

Think Leviticus is bad, you've got the double length gory sequel in Deuteronomy.

Deuteronomy 20:13-15 Kill all the men and boys in the cities that God “delivers into your hands,” but keep the women for raping.

Deuteronomy 21:11-14 If you see a pretty woman among the captives then just take her home and “go in unto her.”

Deuteronomy 22:5 Women that wear men’s clothing are an “abomination unto the Lord.”

Deuteronomy 22:23-24 Says that women who are raped and fail to “cry out loud” in a populated area are most likely enjoying the attack should be killed.

Nah, it's very safe to say that I don't have an additional (or "sock") account here. If I recall, registering for this account was enough of a pain in the arse. I don't know what it's like to register a new account now, but when I registered for this one I remember it taking a couple of attempts.

Actually, I remember when I first started posting here one or two people actually thought I was the "sock" account of an established poster, which I found a bit weird. I don't see the reason why someone would want a "sock" account beyond the obvious negative/deceptive/prickish reasons, really, and as I've said on a prior occasion, I signed up to this forum to talk about music and nothing more than that, really. I have no interest in getting involved in the forum beyond that. It must be noted that I didn't think an awful lot of Raccoon Tanuki or his/her posts on the occasions I came across them.

It's just a bit of a surprise when I'm browsing through a thread and I notice posts and think "hang on, those look similar to posts that I've made in the past", and they turn out to actually be posts that I've made in the past, just copied from their original threads (we're talking years back here) and taken out of context and re-posted word-for-word by folks who are often found copy and pasting shit into threads like "no way sna", "zing!" etc. It's more than a bit fucking weird, to be honest. On the plus side, I guess it's good to know that I have a good memory for things that I've posted in this past and can recognise my own posting style even if I haven't seen those posts for years.

As I've said before, I enjoy discussing music here and find there to be some incredibly knowledgeable people here, but I've observed there's also a negative/snarky undercurrent to ILX which is less than appealing and I guess in a way I'm glad I'm nowhere near as heavily involved in ILX as some others are.

You’re being too simplistic and you’re insulting my poor heart (Turrican), Tuesday, 14 April 2015 21:01 (ten years ago)

How does this relate to your above post at all?

if he's got some connection to ozymandiar or whatever it's called then i'm assuming he'll be banned in perpetuity

he said something pretty racist on the kendrick lamar thread that no one reacted to at the time

Treeship, Saturday, 2 May 2015 17:58 (ten years ago)

iirc the rev observed mildly that he had spent a lot of time in montana, which raccoon from his vantage point on our aircraft carrier had implied was a white state, but maybe you were talking about something else; it was a fertile thread

difficult listening hour, Saturday, 2 May 2015 18:15 (ten years ago)

I don't think he was connected to ozmodiar.

He had accumulated a significant number of flag posts. It wasn't 51'd but it was an inevitability. I think that most people showed a lot of restraint in not engaging with him this time around, but everyone was tired of it.

how's life, Saturday, 2 May 2015 18:26 (ten years ago)

his most recent posts are vile misognyist bullshit inspired by not liking a janelle monae song, turned out he hadn't fully changed his brand to anti-semitism and still had room for misogyny

still wonder if he was someone's long-game troll persona/parody account but who knows, good riddance regardless
