OUT NOW the new album from On Idyl - 'The Fecund Wood' here's a few words from the artist:

'These songs feature slow rolling drones, while synth arpeggios percolate. At other times they are haunting and melancholy, very much like the forest that inspired them.'

Loving it :D Why didn't I think of that...?
caverncult.bsky.social
No, if anything post they're a post blues band ;) But actually it's a psychedelic turned progressive rock band I think. On the other hand, I describe Post Rock to people with very mainstream music knowledge like a punk version of Pink Floyd. They have paved many ways

Loving this!! Godspeed! You Black Emperor know how to take a stance.. Spotify is an evil company. Don't support them.

Proeminent post-rock band Godspeed! You Black Emperor seems to have pulled out all of its music from streaming services. It’s gone from Spotify, but also Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, and Qobuz.

This is astonishing focused "tapestry of soundscapes" written, performed and recorded across four years. (3/3)

and orchestral grandeur interchange with introspective guitar or rhodes parts. Very seldomly some beautifully recorded drum beats appear, but when they do they kick ass - just to fade away the next second to give way to the crackle of another field recording.. (2/3)

I'm absolutely blown away by this album by Khaled Kurbeh. I have seldomly heard music that's so spontaneous, thought-out, reduced and impactful. There's a tranquility, and deep brooding passion to it at the same time - electroacoustic compositions made of synth impros, playful rhythmic gestures(1/3)

Wow, great melodies, textures and arrangement. Thanks a lot!

Great band, I know them from back when it was a one man project - but their name is Stone from the Sky, Bakeneko is the how the album is called. Thanks for reminding me, the project has gone a long way!

Thanks @twopintsplease.bsky.social for drawing my attention to this. A dark maelstrom of #doom, #sludge, #industrial and #postmetal by members of Amenra, Sepultura and Neurosis, a dreadful "dialogue between the animalistic, the human and the industrial" absentinbody.bandcamp.com/album/plague...

Remembering Herbert Marcuse on his birthday 🎂
📷 Jeff Goode, 1972

"While more conventional thinkers insisted that technology would create more leisure time, Marcuse warned that it would instead imprison people in unoriginal lives devoid of creative thinking."

This hits hard. Heavy #experimental #dub music with relentless beats, seething basses and menacing vocals like I love it - very atmospheric, diving into gritty #ambient territory! Thanks to @bugpressure.bsky.social for his albums of the day, always interesting. opaltapes.bandcamp.com/album/how-to...

This nails it. Generative AI is consumption, not creation
yeetkunedo.bsky.social
re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.
Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be.

The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with.

The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization.

In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. 

You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.
