@Draco_V_Ecliptic Honestly I prefer guitar as part of an overall tune than just an old dude noodling for 20 minutes. Although I’d be excommunicated by Garth and Wayne for owning Frampton Goes Live so hey ho. This is my favourite clip of Wata playing live and is probably my favourite lead guitar piece of all time. https://youtu.be/FxishhgT560
RIP Genesis P-Orridge. Throbbing Gristle have made a massive impact on my short life and influenced many of my favourite bands. Yeah, the whole body evolution/pandrogeny thing went over my head but you can’t deny they lived life. Thanks for giving the world 20 Jazz Funk Greats that were neither Jazz, Funk or traditionally Great.
I like At The Drive-In and The Mars Volta. I was hoping that one of you could educate me as to the best Mars Volta album that sounds closest to At The Drive-In's In-Ter-A-Li-A? (The album they made after they reunited after years of Mars Volta work, that sounds quite different to their previous efforts).

Currently listening to ZZ Top, heard a lot of Johan Johannsson stuff recently and would highly recommend his solo albums (as in, non-film scores) I really think he had a lot to say about the world he was living in at the time, and said it through short orchestral pieces, short orchestral bursts.

I've been listening to a lot of Stravinsky recently, his lesser-known works such as Pulcinella and A Symphony Of Pslams, the 'Rite' is classic and essential of course, but he did so many other things as well!. Pulcinella was done in collaboration with Pablo Picasso, and A Symphony Of Psalms relates to his interest in Russian Orthodoxy, he was a devout follower of the Russian Orthodox Church, plus there is his autobiography to dive into as well! .

More Than I Needed To Know by SCOOCH also has appeared on Dance Dance Revolution MAX 2 ARCADE.
I knew that song since November 2006 when DDR MAX 2 arcade has arrived at my local Game Arcade.
I have been playing that song on Heavy for 14 years.
Oh, there was a SCOOCH member shared same name with me, David.
@rafitafi You should check out Nujabes, if you haven’t already. J Dilla too, both legends of sample heavy hip hop that those videos are totally influenced by.
I checked out Peter Brotzmann's 'Machine Gun' album recently. It's great jazz, he tends to create records with a handful of lengthy songs, that seems to be his style. I like it.
