Unable to categorize any of this but it's worth a try! I've listened to it a fair few times now and have enjoyed my time in the weirdo's corner, Demonoid is not of this parallel. Plenty of 'wtf' and 'huh' moments initially but as with anything that solicits an extreme reaction the mystery unravels after time. I would say that you could broadly define the music within as avant-prog (and all that encompasses) utilizing a random grab-bag of stylistic influences making for the opposite of a boring compilation.

1. Renaldo And The Loaf - Lime Jelly Grass
Apparently signed to the Residents' Ralph Label, it sounds like them aswell.
2. John greaves & peter blegvad - Pipeline
Weird proggy swing. Let's count how many times I can say 'weird' in this analysis.
3. Koenjihyakkei - Rattims Friezz
Ah, the last.fm comparison of this Japanese group to Magma is well-earned, they remind me a lot of Frank Zappa's weirder jazz-classical detours aswell, good stuff!
4. Höyry kone - Huono Parturi
I had to dig to find out they were Finnish. Strangely appealing, Magma-esque (but better) mixture of opera-tenor singing and progressive rock. Apart from the time sigs and tangential drumming I am starting to form a concrete template of 'weird', but not being musical couldn't tell you what that is. Is it using lots of flat and sharp notes and deviating from traditional modes?

5. Diablo Swing Orchestra - Poetic Pitbull Revolutions
Black metal with Mexican (genre definition anybody?) horns, not bad, I don't usually go in for apocalyptic melodrama but this is more than bearable.
6. Alamaailman Vasarat - Kyyhylly
Really loud, menacing contemporary Eastern European music, I was waiting for the metal guitars to kick in but they never came. I think the sinister edge came from the rock rhythm section underpinning otherwise traditional instruments. Why are they so angry?!!?
7. Etron Fou Leloublan - Christine
I have been trying to pigeon-hole this without looking to the internet for guidance, and it's not really possible. It's just post-punk era experimental madness, quite in tune with the goth-y music of the time with the rhythm section in some passages. I swear there should be an avant-garde albums chart for all these lunatics?
8. God - Fucked
This track continues to just scare me, I could never imagine having stuff like this on my iPod tbh, everything about it is confrontational. Doom, industrial, avant-metal, these are not friendly musics... Oh and another rule of weird would have to be throwing a horn section into arrangements you wouldn't normally associate them with. It's worked well on all these songs
9. Yat-Kha - Irik Chuduk
I have been looking for some Mongolian throat singer music for a while, what genius that somebody decided to make one a frontman for their band. Classic example of taking something old and making it new, without pissing on a noble tradition
10. The Caretaker - cloudy, since you went away
The first Caretaker albums are inspired by the ballroom scene from the Shining, it says, so I checked him out on wiki and whaddya know all his sh*t is available for free download! Loving this track especially, as it is just like an old waltz record as played through the Gramophone of the Dead. His other stuff is mostly darkly ambient crackly stuff, I like this especially as I am a fan of hauntology

has nobody else been listening to this? Wise up you slovenly posters!

FaSho · 02-24-2009, 02:59 PM

This looks very interesting.

These comps are like buses. There isn't any for days and days and then you all go comp crazy! Plenty here to listen to as well!

Molecules · 02-26-2009, 09:12 AM

Glad you (sort of) liked the indie-pop one D, I was careful to include a twee disclaimer of sorts with that one

The Dentists debut album is an unsung classic I think. Entitled Some People Are On The Pitch They Think It's All Over It Is Now, which will make sense if you are English.

Demonoid's first 10-track:

I am rather fond of this, it's an extremely eclectic selection of non-Western music and I am wondering how vast your record collection must be if you got all of these from albums?

Tracks I dig:

Quella Vecchia Locanda - Un Giorno, Un Amico
This is heavily classical prog - it's like a string quartet amplified on acid. Not a hint of Chuck Berry here.
The Plastic People of the Universe - Constipation
The name of the band and the song title is clearly a big nod to the Zapp, this is good fusion psychedelia.
АукцЫон - День Победы
Cossack swing? What the hell are they putting in your cereals?
Peter King - Shango
I have some Manu DiBango and bits of Afro-Funk here and there, it's got all the right ingredients but I have never normally been able to get behind it. This song is really something though, I think because it's not so overtly sexual...
Amadou & Mariam - Mon Amour, Ma Cherie
African music is so rich and varied, wikipedia confirmed my suspicion that this couple are Malian (it's the electric guitars). Have you heard any of the Ethiopiques series? Ethiopian music is a bit different from this but worth checking out.
Osamu Kitajima - Track 1
Enjoyed this very much, it's funky Noh!! With some Afrobeat thrown in. Amazing. Will be looking into this dude. I like some traditional Japanese music and have only ever found one proper record. Another is Joji Yuasa's 'Aoi No Ue' which is a Noh performer being rendered supernatural by lots of weird tape manipulation.
Lhasa - Los Peces
Beautiful, no studio jiggery-pokery or electric guitars or keyboards, just a voice to die for and acoustica transporting you to the other side of the world.

Tracks I dig not so much:

東京事変 (Tokyo Jihen) - 秘密
On second thoughts this is okay, the inherently annoying quality of the Japanese female voice is subsumed in a number of good bands I have heard, this is one of them. It's a mix of a million things, but it has that inescapably lounge-jazz quality (similar to the track at the end of the indie pop one) that seems unique to contemporary Japanese rock-pop.
椎名林檎 (Shiina Ringo) - 宗教
Not particularly bad, I just find it a bit too close to J-pop/the end credits of a Miyazaki film for my tastes. Like you said again it is just a mental blend of different styles.
Dolores Delirio - Aprendizaje
This kind of stuff gets a resounding 'meh' from me, it sounds like the Cold Wave synthetic indie of early 80's Europe, which produced a lot of average music that was terribly overproduced and had none of the power of erm.. Joy Division. In my humble O.

Davey Moore · 02-28-2009, 06:29 PM

In this mixtape I picked songs that sort of went together in terms of mood, and I tried to make it go from a quiet acoustic vibe to a tense, sad vibe, finally to an upbeat vibe. Arrange them in this order please, since I dont know how to make M3Us.

1. Engine - Jeff Mangum
This is one of my favorite songs, and is possibly my favorite NMH song.

2. Which Will - Nick Drake
My favorite song from Pink Moon.

3. I Found A Reason - The Velvet Underground
My favorite song from Loaded, one of my favorite Velvet Underground songs. The chorus is f*cking fantastic. "Oooh I do believe, if you don't like things you leave, for some place you've never gone before..."

4. Nothin' in the World Can Stop Me From Worryin' 'Bout That Girl - The Kinks
I just heard this song today and I am obsessed.

5. Unsatisfied - The Replacements
Oh man, what a great song.

6. Disarm - The Smashing Pumpkins
The best song by this band, without a doubt.

7. Hellhole Ratrace - Girls
This song sounds like someone running through a field on a sunny day.

8. Can You Get To That - Funkadelic
Goddamn son, this is some funky-ass sh*t.

9. Out of Sight - Built To Spill
Just a great song from a great album.

10. Dry The Rain - The Beta Band
If you haven't heard this song before, you're in for a pop orgasm.
