Flying_horse_in_saudi_arabia posted:this is either a better idea than the one i've been working on (triphop with a postpunk sound palette) or it's actually the same basic idea approached from a slightly different angle. in any case i will be bold enough to say here now that i treated myself to a cheap sampler very recently and am slowly learning my way around it so if you want to try and actually make some Slab music with me then hit my PMs.
tbh i've been an absolute unfocused mess lately but i may take you up on this when i get my shit together and start thinking seriously about music again
Acdtrux those are a touch frenetic relative to what i was imagining; the original thought was sort of cross pollinating Massive Attack & Boris (though the almost reflexive followup of "what if Sunn O))) were on stage with Portishead in Roseland" also seems like it could land somewhere coherent)
tears, that netra album is pretty dope so far, haven't gotten to the other yet
favorite so far
(e: this one is in fact a mashup, the full title is "Steve Angello vs. Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman - Payback x Eiffel 65 - Blue (Psychic Type Edit)")
softspot shoutout to
(pyf remix/cover of the 1998 phenomenon "blue" by turin's own Eiffel 65)
e: this one gets special mention for having been made in LittleBigPlanet 2 on Playstation 3

this was not one of the 50 or so, thank you
the flume one i did see, it's a good'n. some of the trance mixes are pretty tasteful, though i was underwhelmed by the DnB stuff i found... maybe i should do a rundown

nadja cover a kids in the hall song from brain candy and it's awesome

pissgrave are death metal which usually has a different aesthetic from the kind of stuff you get on like goregrind covers or similar.
tears posted:i think its part of the artistic package. i dont really claim to understand it but there is something interesting about musical art at the fringes
the other thing is that i feel there is inherently something taboo breaking about the intersection of femininity and extreme metal, since discussing the latest disgusting pissgrave album cover is decidedly unfeminine in the traditional sense

yeah i mean this is all interesting and i appreciate it on a theoretical level, i just don't like looking at irl gore pics regardless of context.
so i search google. guinea pig flower, i type.
first page of pics GIS returned was like 90% closeup dismemberment shots from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinea_Pig_2:_Flower_of_Flesh_and_Blood, which i had never heard of, but my first thought was i had stumbled into some seriously grisly metal album art
anyway, look at that piggy
Do NOT do a Google image search for "jive baby"
