I'm bored. Chances are, you're bored too. Solution: recommend me some songs.

ANY of Theo Parrish's tracks/mixes you can get your hands on...

And the first two Quicksilver Messenger Service lps, plus that Gold and Silver 2cd comp that came out on Collectors' Choice Music a coupla years ago.....

Also, Nate you should check out the original UK lp recording of "Speed King" by Deep Purple.

If you do those two things, it will open up new sonic vistas for you.

I'm rooting for you! I want you to have a breakthrough!

The Avengers - "Car Crash"

basically, magma type prog rock done in a "star wars disco" fashion.

disco = musique - keep on jumpin
funk = johnny griffith - plane of illusion
rap = ll cool j f mobb deep, keith murray, fat joe, foxy brown - i shot ya (remix)
punk = i dont know any punk
electro = dax riders - real fonky time (robbie riveras funkatron dub)
house = masters at work - the nervous track
acid rock = i dont know any acid rock

There is no reason this many artists should be involved in one track.

deep blue - "the helicopter tune (2 bad mice remix)"
and
blame - "music takes you (2 bad mice remix)"

cuz they are ace

Yes, but are they all elbowing each other for mic time? Nope.

(i.e. modern hip-hop and/or the disasterous fall of Belle & Sebastian)

Yeah, annoying as fuck.

disco = chic - everybody dance
funk = eddie bo - check your bucket
rap = 50 cent - u not like me
punk = green day - basket case
electro = mantronix - fresh is the word
house = cassius f jocelyn brown - im a woman (extended mix)
acid rock = electric prunes - general confessional (the 'niggas know' break!!!)

i tried really hard to think of 'punk' and 'acid rock' songs, im not quite sure i know what acid rock is though :-/ if anyone wants to tell me!! bonus rnb joint = r kelly - when a womans fed up (remix)

other stuff:
april march - coral bracelet
ladytron - evil (Ewan Pearson Mix)
blanket jet city - Sea Side Jet City
smash tv - what about me

Also, for the benefit of mr. trife, "acid rock" = that segment of '60s hippie music that sounds all distorted and fucked up, i.e. "Purple Haze". I think Black Sabbath might have been considered acid rock before someone decided they were "heavy metal".

Also, ha ha, fooled you, this thread is actually about YOUR taste! (so far, so good, I think. The verdict is out on Alex in NYC though.)

The Seeds.

funk = Marva Whitney - Unwind Yourself (the home of THAT riff)

rap = 3rd Bass - Gas Face (always nice to go back to)

punk = http://lynskey.scumperson.eu.org/mp3/punksong.mp3 (this is something from Japan that nobody I know can ID. However, it is almost unbelievably good)

electro = http://lynskey.scumperson.eu.org/fah/spooky.mp3 (here, have an exclusive)

acid rock = Father Yod, I suppose.

Get On by Moguai. You will absolutely love it, I fully guarantee.

Ah, but isn't it always?

funk - I have no funk, Nate, you know this. So reinterpreting the category as "good fuck songs" I'm saying you need "Tempted 2 Touch" by Rupee, a Caribbean lovers cry fit to rub cashmere with that Wayne Wonder single.

rap - Nas feat Pharrell - "Flyest Angels", when oh when will this indian sample madness end, not yet?, fine by me. Wheezy, cooling.

punk - oh come off it, but I did buy the Rough Trade Post-Punk CD set so I could look at that. Actually, no, time for the dinosaurs to strike back and wash the punk virus away, so download "Get Your Hands Off My Woman" by novelty-metal genii The Darkness.

electro - Ultravox's "The Thin Wall" went down a storm at the last FT club night, LIVE THE BUZZ with its super-tense drum sounds and Midge sounding doomy.

house - M Mayer's "Speaker" was a single last year I think but I only just heard it - very deep minimal acid blip house, compelling in a retro-87 fashion.

acid rock - I'm sharing a Les Rallizes Denudes live album on slsk but I'm not on it right now. Otherwise, tough luck.

whatever the hell it is that Clinic does - ooh time for the post punk album again! "Georges Five" by Les Georges Leningrad has a monstrous concrete groove which is then completely wrecked by the squalling art-banshee singing it but if you like that sort of thing it's great!

I hear ya. what's the date on that?

if you get hold of it let me know and i can sort you out with more.

My single contribution is maybe "obvious" to those in the know, but I just heard it for the first time and it's one of those songs I've listened to 5-10 times a day since d/ling it:

Patrice Rushen - Forget Me Nots
