What are you listening to???


Recommended Posts

I'm not arguing that Rock didn't come from blues music, or any social injustice about that, but are you saying there can't be more than one form of commodified popular music? And Hip Hop, Rap, Country, or R&B aren't recycled ad nauseam? Personally I give no credence to what the music industry, it's practitioners and profiteers have to say about what I like to listen to. 

 

So let's share what we're listening to.

 

 

Dude, you are derailing! It's not that difficult to understand!

 

Let me make this perfectly clear; I am veeerrrry tired of rock n roll's (see definition above) projection of false danger, faux rebellion and fraudulent revolution!

 

That attitude is maybe not as prevalent as it used to be but it is a trite pose that is best left behind with other useless artifacts IMHO.

 

Modern hip hoppers may be status conscious consumers but for the most part they are not denying it.

Thank's for sharing your opinion. Now can we go back to posting what we're listening to?

I'm always listening to drummers! Adam Cruz just makes me smile. This was almost two years ago in Santa Cruz @ Kuumbwa. I was sitting next to the guy who shot this bootleg. This was the encore after two hour and fifteen minute sets, the guys playing this hard the whole time. There are cats with chops, then there are cats who are soo badd, they transcend instrumental virtuosity, seting the bar for creativity and performance. Chris... being Chris. Check out the little licks Adam Cruz fires back at Chris when he get's back to the head...  and that whole sequence into the 4s at the end. I was sitting right there and they were loud as fuck... anyway I copped audio of the whole tune and have been listening to it hundreds of times to transcribe it.

I've been drinking Breakside Ale, but they shipped some Pilsner that was really nice, the last couple weeks Ninkasi is shipping Dawn of the Red that is really good. A while back I tried Ninkasi IPA. I like it a lot but one and I'm done, two pints will kick may ass. Wednesday night is my Saturday night... I go listen to my friends Soul Cookin' band play over in the Hollywood District @ Blackwell's... their motto is "Craft Your Buzz"
