Why do we feel so much from so -little? The reason is the way the brain uses its senses to wonderstand -the world around it. Brains use large amounts of inner connected -components that serve very abstract uses. By routing information to -different parts using a high amount of innerconnectedness it can process -information in a exponential amount of ways. By sending carefully -choosen information to send to the senses you can take advanged of the -way it processes information to show whats really going on under the -hood and to cause it to route data in ways it normally wouldn't. Music -guides the geist through this chaotic complex world and shines light on -many parts of the mind and universe.\\ -\\ -"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of -energy, frequency and vibration." - Nikola Tesla - -* Psychedelic - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: psychedelic - :END: -** The Doors - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: the-doors - :END: -If you don't know who they are than you disapoint me. About the closest -I have to an all time favorite. When I was first learning guitar a -family friend showed me The Doors and showed me how to play a doors rift -on guitar. At first it look me to get deeper in their music but they -have always been with me no matter where I go in life. A lot of artists -haven't continued to bring me joy as my taste changes in the same way as -The Doors. If you asked me my favorite doors song I would say all of -them.\\ -\\ -If you dig The Doors please check out Ray Manzarek's solo work. His solo -album The Golden Scarab is my pick for one of the most criminally -underrated albums of all time. - -** Robin Trower - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: robin-trower - :END: -Many people call him a Jimi Hendrix copy but he they are wrong. While -there are crossovers he does have his own style that is different From -Jimi. His old albums, new albums... are all master pieces. He only -continues to age like wine and is still making new music to this day -without selling out or sounding dated. - -** Jimi Hendrix - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: jimi-hendrix - :END: -This list isn't complete without him. Jimi is like Santa, Jesus, Abraham -Lincoln... its a requirement you know who he is. Just take a look at -every artist after he got big. Jimi's greatness leaked into all music. -His influence can't be stopped by any granfalloon borders. His influence -quickly leaked into even countries that were cultural isolated from the -west. Check out Super Djata Band to see what I mean.\\ -\\ -Most places say he died from overdose but that is a lie! He was murdered -by his manager who was upset that Jimi wanted to take a break from fame -and focus on himself instead. - -** Babe Rainbow - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: babe-rainbow - :END: -A fun little viby modern psychedelic band. Also one of the few modern -bands that have well put together albums not just great singles but -shitty albums. There music is fun to listen to and a good choice to -bring you out of a bad mood. - -** Levitation Room - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: levitation-room - :END: -Another great modern psychedelic band. I got to see them live once. The -way their guitarist plays finger style really caught my eye. I often -have their songs stuck in my head even if I haven't heard any of their -stuff for months and I don't even realize its them until I listen to -them again. - -** Sugar Candy Mountain - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: sugar-candy-mountain - :END: -Its one of those great bands I forgot that exists but when I run into -their music again it always brings me great joy. - -** King Gizard and the Lizard Wizard - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: king-gizard-and-the-lizard-wizard - :END: -A very unforgotable name indeed. You may not like some of their music -but they fill quite a bit of area so don't give up on them so fast. A -lot of their songs feel a bit gimmicky for my taste but still a great -band. - -** The Black Angels - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: the-black-angels - :END: -Good skateboarding music. Heavy and dark. Very nice indeed.\\ -Update: *FINALLY GOT TO SEE THEM LIVE* Very good band to see live. -101 out of 99. - -** Strawberry Alarm Clock - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: strawberry-alarm-clock - :END: -Its just pure 60's psychedelic extract.

They are a must for -any prog rock fans. They mix in so many sounds and really push the -limits of rock in a way even other prog bands never did. I may even dare -call them my favorite prog rock band. - -** Camel - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: camel - :END: -Another prog band nearly no one knows about. Go listen to their album -Moonmadness right now. Thats a requirement! - -** The Moody Blues - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: the-moody-blues - :END: -Its commonly believed that they started prog rock. They are known for -their big sound and use of classical music theory. I already called -Gentle Giant my favorite prog rock band so I am going to call The Moody -Blues my favorite prog pop band. Many people don't know that prog pop -actually exists and prog pop is what The Moody Blues is. Go listen to -The Moody Blues right now! Some of their albums are a bit slow going but -thats because they are carefully created works of art. Their most well -known album Days of Future Passed is said to be one of the greatest -concept albums of all time. - -** King Crimson - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: king-crimson - :END: -They are very commercially successful for prog standards. How could you -not like a band with a name like that! - -** Van der Graaf Generator - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: van-der-graaf-generator - :END: -They sound almost early Genesis. They have a strange natual darkness -that always stands out to me. - -** Hatfield & The North - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: hatfield-the-north - :END: -I really dig their album The Rotters club. That album has a special -place in my heart and is easily one of my favorite albums of all time!!! -Wanta hear the crazy story behind it? There isn't one, I just really dig -it. - -** Emerson, Lake & Palmer - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: emerson-lake-palmer - :END: -The band was started by a few law firm owners. You believed me didn't -you? They actually just have a boring name. Their music isn't boring so -go check them out! Also a lot of people hate this band for no reason. - -** Caravan - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: caravan - :END: -Most of these bands are British but this one is the most British. Your -welcome. - -** Magma - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: magma - :END: -They write concept albumns about a race of aliens called the Kobaïan. -The lanauge they sing in is the lanauge the Kobaïan speak so not very -many people actually know what they are singing about. Yes, the aliens -are real. - -** Yes - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: yes - :END: -One of the first prog bands I got into. Don't let their commerical -success scare you away. They are indeed very wonderful. - -[[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] - -** Can - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: can - :END: -The greatest Krautrock band of all time. tbh its one of those bands I -really need to listen to more. - -** Amon Duul II - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: amon-duul-ii - :END: -Another great Krautrock band. They have a bit heavier sound than Can. - -** Pink Floyd - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: pink-floyd - :END: -Pink Floyd is not a prog rock band. - -* Funk - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: funk - :END: -** Parliament Funkadelic - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: parliament-funkadelic - :END: -The funkest band in the list. More funk than you can handle! p-funk is -some pretty strong stuff. Its lethal. Its actually two bands but its -members kept going back and forth and they forgot were each band started -and ended. - -** Sly and the Family Stone - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: sly-and-the-family-stone - :END: -A vey influential funk band ineed. They were mixed race and gender, and -they were an important part of the civil rights movement. Also their -single Thank You is the first song ever released with slap bass which -was played by Larry Graham. - -** Graham Central Station - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: graham-central-station - :END: -Larry Graham created it so that means its 100 percent funk. Larry Graham -is the enbodiment of funk so anything he touches gets turned into pure -100 percent organic funk. - -** Cymande - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: cymande - :END: -This one is quite different than any of the funk bands on this list and -really is its own thing. Their name is a calypso word for dove which is -a symbol of peace and love. You can hear the peace and love in their -music and it flows into the ear and through rest of body. This is a band -that truly transforms their geist into energy and vibrations for rest of -the world to hear. - -** Lafayette Afro Rock Band - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: lafayette-afro-rock-band - :END: -Another band that is so funky its lethal! They were not that well known -during their time recording but have gained much more of a following -now. Do check them out if you think you can handle so much funk! - -** Average White Band - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: average-white-band - :END: -Its hard to believe a bunch of white dudes can get so funky but they did -and its real funky! - -** Jaco Pastorius - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: jaco-pastorius - :END: -Jaco Pastorius is one of the greatest bassists of all time. He played -for Weather Report and released some really funky solo work. - -** Billy Cobham - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: billy-cobham - :END: -Billy Cobham is one hell of a drummer. He played for Miles Davis and -Mahavishnu Orchestra. You need to listen to his solo work now (thats a -threat). He also had influence on many prog artists including King -Crimson. - -** Shuggie Otis - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: shuggie-otis - :END: -His dad had a band and personally knew many very well known artists so -Shuggie grow up around them and learned guitar at a very young age. He -played in his dads band as a little kid and they would make him dress -like a old man so they could sneak him into bars to play with the band. -As he got older he got countless offers from some really big artists to -play in their band but he gave them all up and instead produced his own -albums and remained a small artist so he could make the music he wanted -to make. - -** Janko Nilovic - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: janko-nilovic - :END: -Holy fuck I forgor this dude existed for a while but dam his music is -funky! - -** Eddie Hazel - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: eddie-hazel - :END: -The first lead guitarist for Funkadelic. His Hendrix like playing is -very badass. He is known for his guitar playing on Maggot Brain though -he also has a great solo album which became rare not long after its -release and is often not talked about much to this day. - -** Gil Scott-Heron - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: gil-scott-heron - :END: -As of writting this He is an artist I discovered more recently. I dig it -so far. He writes songs that are political which is quite based. - -** Mandrill - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: mandrill - :END: -Not really my favorite funk band but still funky. And funky is good. - -* Japanese stuff - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: japanese_stuff - :END: -They get their own section even though not all this artists play the -same style because 1: this list is going to get messy, 2: they are -better than the other artists, 3: some of these artists I discovered -like yesterday or an hour ago as of writing this so I don't know what to -say. - -** Kikagaku Moyo - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: kikagaku-moyo - :END: -The best psychedelic band of all time. *THE BEST.* You will be ruined -for all other psychedelic music once you hear them. Sadly they broke up. - -** The Pillows - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: the-pillows - :END: -Best known for making the soundtrack for FLCL. Go watch FLCL (thats a -threat). Their music is killer and I dig it. - -** Ginger Root - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: ginger-root - :END: -Ginger Root is the bomb. I got to see them live and let me tell you it -was easily one of the best artists I have ever seen live. So much -energy!!! - -** Pacific album - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: pacific-album - :END: -This album was made by multiple artists. Its one of the best albums I -have ever listen to. Good music for when skateboarding around town -buzzed on kratom on a clear warm day without a single worry in sight. - -** Unsorted short but ever growing list of Japanese artists - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: unsorted-short-but-ever-growing-list-of-japanese-artists - :END: -- T-SQUARE -- Masayoshi Takanaka -- Naniwa Express -- Casiopea -- Haruomi Hosono -- Shigeru Suzuki -- Tatsuro Yamashita - -* Jazz - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: jazz - :END: -Jazz is about the best music. A lot of this is more on the fusion side -btw (: - -** Allan Holdsworth - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: allan-holdsworth - :END: -My pick for greatest guitarist of all time. This dude learned guitar -himself and jesus mother fucking christ he can play. Not only can he -play fast but we can still play with at least as much geist as Jeff -beck, play the most harsh finger breaking far apart scales, all while -leaving Joe Satriani and Steve Vai in the dust. *Guitar was his side -hobby.* His main thing we brewing. Dam this fucker got a hell ton of -autism. - -** Mahavishnu Orchestra - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: mahavishnu-orchestra - :END: -People will think your crazy if you tell them to check out this band, -people will think your crazy if you rock out to this. But its the bomb. -It showed me a side of music I haven't gone into before than. I was -listening to Led Zeppelin and that shit before I discovered the depths -of fusion and prog waiting for me. The best parts of life is when you -discover something new and fall deep into the depths of a rabbit hole. -Thats when the world opens up and you start to think differently and -open your mind. Thats why its good to try new things. I wouldn't be who -I am today without that push from Mahavishnu Orchestra. They are a -different breed of jazz fusion than the stuff most fusion fans are use -to. Its much harsher and almost meaner. they dis into parts of the geist -other artists stay far away from. - -** Miles Davis - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: miles-davis - :END: -You jazz peeps already know Miles Davis. If your a song writer of any -style that haven't checked out Miles yet give him a try. His music is a -good example of how to use space in music to open things up and close -them down. Compare his works and you will see what I mean. While I -haven't dug into his stuff much I really dig his album Bitches Brew. Its -very different than the smooth easy on the ear stuff people often think -of when it comes to Miles Davis. Its closer to Mahavishnu Orchestra. - -* Rock/Alt/Punk - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: rock_alt_punk - :END: -** Talking Heads - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: talking-heads - :END: -*You need to listen to the Talking Heads.* Now, its a requirement. Its a -funky silly litte band. The front man David Byre is rocking with autism -so its a given its going to be a good band. There is no band that sounds -anything like them. They have no right to be as funky as they are! - -** Ween - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: ween - :END: -A wonderful little silly band. Best known for their album The Mollusk -which influenced the creation of SpongeBob Squarepants. *If it -influenced SpongeBob so it gotta be good!* They have other great music -though that album really stands out to me. This silly little SpongeBob -album is somehow one of the greatest pieces of music of all time! It can -easily compare to the prog and fusion stuff on this list. The mood -changes quickly but in a very musical way that paints an entire -landscape of many different colors. - -** Morphine - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: morphine - :END: -A really wonderful little treo. Their front band Mark Sandman plays a -bass with only 2 strings tuned in 5ths and he plays it with a slide, -their saxophonist Dana Colley can play two saxophons at once, and their -drummer is just a total vibe. - -** Joy Division - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: joy-division - :END: -This band reminds me of my CS teacher who had a bow tie and worked at a -standing table with borderline too many monitors plugged into a little -mac book. Every morning when I walked in normal music was never playing, -it was often a mix of alt rock and EDM that was quite fitting for a -programming class. He gave everyone rubber ducks so we can have an -inanimate object to use to ask for help. He always called himself a -lizard person and was a Doctor Who fan. I assume this is a universal -experience and everyone had a CS teacher like this. He must have been a -standard issue factory made CS teacher because if a mad man with a bow -tie who jams out to Joy Division isnt your average CS teacher I dont -know what is a average CS teacher. - -** The Clash - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: the-clash - :END: -One of the first bands I really got into. I listened to them a lot when -I was first learning guitar. They got a good sense of humor to. - -** Ramones - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: ramones - :END: -When I was little one of my sisters friends had a dad who was a fan of -the Ramones. He gave me a data disk full of pirated music which included -a lot of stuff by the Ramones. I instandly became a Ramones fan. I dont -listen to them much lately but they will always have a place in my -heart. - -** Dr.Feelgood - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: dr.feelgood - :END: -This is a mean ass band. Their music was a rebellian against the prog -rock and glam rock music that was becoming big at the time. Pub rock -bands like Dr.Feelgood went fuck it all and instead played mean raw -drunken rock n' roll. This is the kind of music I listen to when -skateboarding or when I need to get shit done. - -** ACDC (Bon Scott era) - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: acdc-bon-scott-era - :END: -I know what your thinking /its that band with songs that always sound -the same and has sore throat sounding vocals/. Well they were not always -like that. In their early days they had a better vocalist: Bon Scott. -And they fucked around with different sounds a lot more.\\ -\\ -These are the Bon Scott era albums: - -- High Voltage -- TNT -- Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap -- Let There Be Rock -- Powerage -- Highway to Hell - -Powerage and Let There Be Rock are my favorites out of all of them. -Powerage was my first CD I ever got and I keep going back to it all the -time. Its their best album by far. RIP (rock in pleace) Bon Scott. - -** ZZ Top - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: zz-top - :END: -I dont listen to them much anymore but they had a big influence on my -guitar playing. One of my favorite albums by them is Tejas. Its a very -underrated album. I dig the darker more ambient tone of Tejas. Also go -listen to their first album. Its completely killer! - -* Other - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: other - :END: -** Jeff Beck - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: jeff-beck - :END: -While many think Jimi Hendrix is the greatest guitarist of all time many -more enlighted people pick Jeff Beck. Not that Jimi is bad or anything -but holy fuck Jeff Beck can really play guitar. He puts soooo much geist -into his music and makes the guitar sing in a way no one else can. I -still have my own pick for greatest guitarist though. - -** Tipsy - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: tipsy - :END: -I was in a music store with some friends and one of their records was -playing in the store. Later, I wished I bought it so I went back and -they no longer had the record. They don't have very much released and -seem to be dead. They don't seem to have much of a following and they -website is down. You can find it -[[https://web.archive.org/web/20130826202218/http://tipsy.org/][here]] -on the wayback machine. - -** Messer Chups/Messer Fur Frau Muller - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: messer-chupsmesser-fur-frau-muller - :END: -A russia band I discovered recently as of writing this. I dig them so -far but I haven't checked out much of their stuff. - -** Silver Apples - :PROPERTIES: - :CUSTOM_ID: silver-apples - :END: -They are a electric band that uses DIY synths made from miltary surplus -radio gear along with other shit. Not really something I would care to -jam to much but still a good band. - -[[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] [[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] -[[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] [[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] -[[file:images/tiny_lain.gif]] |
