Ahoy mateys. I've been MIA for a while, but now I've got a music blog. Here's my "favorites of 2014 so far" post with 150+ albums I've enjoyed this year:

http://www.head-fi.org/t/733770/hfb-9-8-14-apollonian-squint-150-albums-to-hear

There's a top 30, and then the rest is listed alphabetically.

Good to see you around MF. Us die-hard music lovers have been manning the pumps to keep the music threads afloat.

To quote a film...

He had a message. He said, ''Tell her it's not California without you.

We want you around, like last summer.''

I like the new album from Neil Cowley 3, they take up the baton where E.S.T left it.

New Jukebox the Ghost out today.  If you like them, you will really like this.

Moderato Cantabile
Anja Lechner + François Couturier
LINK

A beautiful blend of works from Mompou, Gurdjieff, Komitas and Couturier.  Melodic and spirited at times but predominantly relaxed and contemplative, perfect for winding down at the end of the day.  The skills of the Lechner (cello) and Couturier (piano) are nicely captured, a top-notch effort from ECM.  The compositions of Coutuerier do offer an interesting juxtaposition to the other works, but I found "Papillons" to contrast a little too much if you are looking for some evening respite.   :)p5

Absolutely superb in every way.  A certain album-of-the-year contender.  The best singer-songwriter-type record in years.

Was wondering how this got onto my buy list...I ended up on a YouTube tangent.
Thank you for this!!
So much sadness, so beautiful.  I'm hooked.


Running through this thread looking for some new music and I have to give kudos for this suggestion. Jason Isbell has ended up in my top 20 artist list. Slowly got into his older stuff too, but Southeastern is such a great album. Wish it had better recording quality though.

Skyharbor's newest album, Guiding Lights is out. Phenomenal release for fans of djent (TesseracT, Periphery, Animals As Leaders, etc.). Initial of reviews have a lot of comparisons to Steve Wilson, such as on the "Patience" single.







Entire album is up for streaming on Basick Records' YouTube page:

Loving the Isbell love in this thread. For those interested he had a fantastic interview with Maron on WTF a year or so ago.

Also check out his work with the Drive-By Truckers if you're not already familiar, in particular Decoration Day and Dirty South.

What do you think of the new QOTSA album - Like Clockwork?

Too boring for me so far. I did, however enjoy their previous records. Then again my desert rock playlist nowadays is mostly populated by Truckfighters...
Thx for  recommending Truckfighters btw.
You asked in another thread how HD800 fares with Opeth, i'd say its too brightly mixed for HD800, or should i point at my dac instead..
Truckfighters Mania on the other hand is incredible with HD800. The leading edges and crunch, wow.
