Kate Bush - Rocket Man

sounds like an Aerial outtake

alright, which one of y'all jokers is the barista at my neighborhood coffeeshop who decided to subject patrons to an hour of slowed-down chipmunks this afternoon? (which I wholeheartedly approve of, btw)

Kool & The Gang - Get Down On It
one of my all-time favs, makes me sad I've never had the opportunity to abuse codeine in a club setting

okay so I guess this was a substantial part of the 'vaporwave' genre (which I 100% missed out on, as I was busy reading poetry & getting into metal)
e.g. this Macintosh Plus track

to bring it all full-circle, here's 15 minutes of ass-thick swampy stoner sludge c/o Creedence Clearwater Revival

yeah, bernard you should check out the vaporwave thread! half of it is this sort of 80s slowed down stuff. (the other half is like bright 90s corporate muzak)

i tend to prefer the stuff that eschews vocals, sometimes the slowed down vocals do work, though. makes a lot of stuff sounds like tears for fears.

grooving & leaning this morning to New Alhambra, an LP(?) by a contemporary indie-rock dude

https://youtu.be/2z9FkLoPDxA << could totally play this out, just add a drop & some doubletime handclaps in the chorus

my friends and i discovered 'slowed down walk like an egyptian' back when we were teenagers. so pleased it's been brought to wider attention.

The Dolly Parton 'Jolene' one is excellent.
