Rolling 'One Track Per Week' Thread 2014

So that's where it's from!

<3 Odetta, obviously

v dope beat yes

Barre Phillips - Grant's Pass

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuWv_PLjAlM

minimalist ECM jazz. it reminds me of old-time fiddle music even though it's most obviously patterned after Steve Reich

17 year old songwriter from Derry

cot DAN, Cylob

can't get this song out of my head. how many 80's revival people have ever reached this level of awesome? my beloved lansing-dreiden might have been able to pull off a song like this. Tim Finney's beloved Studio maybe.

Just discovered this amazing Prince-written Kid Creole song from 1990.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdOZQ1LFxwQ

^ that's 'The Sex Of It' by Kid Creole and the Coconuts btw

i really like that Barre Phillips track posted above

Mariam the Believer - Black Mark: shambala meets Melanie de Biasio, or something...would probably have voted for Mariam in EOY if I'd heard it in time.

A friend played "guess what this is" and it was fun for him to see me guessing a bunch of contemporary Wire-y names off the top and then watch my expression turned to awe

John Surman - Dark Reed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tW6Si4dqZBU

ECM jazzman tries his hand at Bohren-style dark jazz (sort of)

that Odetta song Scott shared is amazing! did she record anything else in the same vein?

Deuter - Offener Himmel I - Gelichzeitig

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsqlbUwodQQ

1970er krautrock newage goodvibes weltmusik

― once a week is ample

I'm loving everything on the afrobeats thread. the posters there are true experts, amazing knowledge. But this track stood out for me as being pretty unique among a genre that is in itself full of variety anyhow

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZDS72ov1rU

Track is 'Godwin' by Korede Bello

I'm sure a fair share of you are familiar with this track but I'd forgotten he (mu-Ziq, u -ziq ??) was still making music. Lovely stuff.

How had I never heard 'Weekend Special' by Brenda & the Big Dudes before?!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A16XFxDNVXc

This Italian mega-hit from 94 plays a significant role in The Wonders, the delightful film that one the Grand Prix from Cannes last year. Good poptune, great film.

24 years this week since Soviet indie-punk singer Yanka Dyagileva died (at 24 years old). Can't stop listening to Na Chornii Den'.

^^^ That's really cool. My ex had a copy of "Not Permitted" that we knew nothing about because it was all in Cyrillic. Any idea what album that electric version of "Na Chornii Den" is on?

Xp, it's on "Domoi".

Thanks!

Fantastikoi Hxoi - 'Etos 2525'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyIUZgcpTnA

modern krautrock/spacerock composed of samples from old Greek psych LPs. I found this album on some random blog in ≈2010 but I haven't properly listened to it until now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tSYXpq2kW0
I can't get this out of my head recently, have been playing the album frequently and love Autumn Leaves as well, but there is just "something" about love for sale.

That Fantastikoi Hxoi is great! (also weird that it's not transliterated as Echoi or Exoi, unless I'm up meself.)

ILXor, ithappens, posted this the other day on Facebook and I haven't been able to stop listening to it since.

New Musik - This World of Water

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbJIu_na4gY

One of the funner things with foreign films is getting to know cheesy pop songs from other countries. This is from the new Ozon, and is probably a queer anthem in France. It's used that way, anyway. It's catchy.

Brigit Novik - The Wedding Dance

partner of + collaborator with Robin 'Pop Muzik' Scott, aka M

this is very jaunty! is the melody borrowed from something famous, it seems familiar, but I can't place it?

the verse melody kind of reminds me of Kraftwerk's 'The Model'

Silvania - Pálido final

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzlIA_LTkVY

dubby ambient pop by a Mexican band that started out as a shoegaze act. ymmv.

"Murmuration" - GoGo Penguin. I'm not familiar with modern jazz but a friend hipped me to this and its really lovely.

The song over the end credits of Pride. Just a great song. 'I never cried / the way I cried over you' is cliché, but earned by 'as I put down the telephone / and the world it carried on' 'Another man has lost friend / I bet he feels the way I do'... The sense of private loss, but that there's just too much loss in the world for anyone else to pay attention.

I can think of few things as horrifying as the aids epidemic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3-ZbN72Itk

this is from a 1981 movie called Vaa Intha Pakkam or Vaa Indha Pakkam, the full soundtrack is on youtube and spotify under the second title (in the UK, anyway)

the soundtrack seems to have been composed by this gentleman as far as I can tell: https://oldmalayalamcinema.wordpress.com/2010/10/13/shyam-my-10-favourites/

Josh White - Told My Cap'n

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7b46zlLL88c

he's mostly remembered as a blues/folk revivalist (and I think he gets short shrift for being 'too commercial' or 'too polished' to play the blues, which is nonsense), but this is a great vocal quartet recording from his 1940 LP Chain Gang

wow, that's a lot of surface noise. here's a better upload:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psfcyqHEyD0

Yeah, I've seen A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night. Insane that that soundtrack isn't on spotify, if it's already been released in the US. That is one cool collection of tunes. Have listened to Death all over as well, but that is by White Lies, and no matter how masterful it's used in the film, I'm not going to rep for fucking White Lies. But here's a nice Iranian rock song by a band called Radio Tehran. Their whole album is on spotify, and it's fine.

Black Blood and the Chocolate Pickles - Mississippi Mud

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfIeZuZnbBY

(haunting rare groove funk)

I like this thread. Here's the spotify playlist for 2015's picks
ILX's One Track Per Week 2015 Thread Spotify Playlist

cheers fct - i've found out so many great tracks through this thread.

https://youtu.be/7AJX4flkK_w

Marc Baron - 1991-2005 (track 1), from Hidden Tapes

great noise record

So Ingrid Bergman. This is quite honestly the track that most reminds me of her. It's what's played in Histoire(s) du Cinema as a celebration of neorealism, a segment that begins with Bergman on the volcano in Stromboli. Her Rossellini-years are where she's at her most artful and brave, so of course her centennial should be celebrated through cheesy Italian schlager.

Nicolai Dunger Will Oldham - Last Night I Dreamt of Mississippi

The Angels - I Had a Dream I Lost You

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBn8ZiMDhVY

unanthologized girl group gem from 1967

Plumtree - The Game's Over

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9BorH4UBt0

been listening to this nonstop for the past ≈8 years. probably the best band to come out of the '90s Halifax pop-rock scene

8 years / 3'45'' = 1,121,280 spins. I think you are good for the Guinness Book. ;-)

French act from 1984. Super smooth
