ThrillHow
Remember when last.fm had user-generated social group pages, and it actually notified you if someone friended (i.e. followed) you? And then the big update fucked that all off and 3/4 of the userbase disappeared overnight? And then Songkick arrived and made the Events pages redundant as well. I honestly don't know how this platform is still afloat. I still support it but it's a big wasted potential ongoing these days.

Just found your page shoutbox surfing. I'm a little sad I missed the golden age of this site. Good news is it appears to be growing in the last few years. I have found a lot of people who have made accounts in the last 3 years. I know 5 other people IRL who have made accounts since 2022. I hope the site stays up forever.

ahah, can't really think of any albums I really like that are generally considered 'bad'? Maybe 'Human Story 3' by James Ferraro, saw plenty of people dunk on it and I think it's amazing. I really like Faith No More's first album and I've seen many of people write that off as well. Oh, and some of the later stuff from Sun Kil Moon.

I will give those a listen and I'll make sure to let you know which one I dislike the most as being the best worst album.

Your compatibility with ThrillHow is Very High. You both listen to Car Seat Headrest, Toby Fox and De La Soul

Amazing charts, brother. Your library is like what I imagine mine to look like if I started out with indie instead of metal as a teenager haha - many interesting points of convergence. Could you recommend me some ambient that you enjoyed recently? Looking for some new stuff in this domain and you seem to know a lot more!

Wowow, very kind!! Love what's on your charts too - I was gonna suggest Loris S. Sarid maybe but you're already on it! Some of my personal top fav ambient-geared labels of recent years are Constellation Tatsu, Salmon Universe, Last Resort, Moon Glyph, Leaving Records and Métron Records (amongst others!) They're amazing, you can honestly look on their Bandcamp pages or whatever, pick anything you think looks cool and chances are it'll be a gem. To give a few specifics, some personal faves are G.S. Schray's "First Appearance" (not strictly ambient, kind of ambient jazz, but smooth and beautiful), Constant Shapes "Rainbow Rituals" (uplifting synthy droney ambient), Emily A. Sprague's "Hill, Flower, Fog" (more sparse minimal synth and a bit more melancholy but beautiful), and Green-House's 'Six Songs for Invisible Gardens'. As you can tell, I like this question 😂 I want to write a blog about this post 2010s ambient because there's too much I love madly 💙

I just ordered a tape from Loris this morning. :D I only moved to Glasgow recently and am happy to support artists based here. Thank you so much for the reply! I didn't expect such a quick and thorough response—much appreciated.🖤 It will probably take me a moment to fully explore this list of suggestions, but I'm very excited to dive in and will let you know what I enjoyed in particular! And looking forward to that blog post as well. :)

Ahh love it!! Good shout - you've got me looking now! It's always nice if you can support local artists :) I've never been to Glasgow, hope you enjoy life there. I'd like to visit someday (I'm in London). I've listened to a few things before from this label 12th Isle that put this latest Loris tape out. Gonna have to dig further into it - I love their aesthetic! 🙏 I also forgot to mention Not Not Fun, another amazing label. So much wonderful music 😊

Glasgow is no London of course, but it has some really nice music scenes. I've lived in Scotland for 6 yrs now and always went here for gigs, so really happy to have finally moved to where everything happens. If you ever come up, I'll take you to one of the many local jazz gigs that I attend regularly 🎷 (there are a bunch of local projects sharing members—many featured, e.g., here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUMKlZTWBAo). I'll be in London for this gig actually: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/555798 Chihei is a long time favourite of mine and I've never seen him live, and excited for Loscil too. :) So when UCL invited me to give a talk, I asked them whether it can be that Friday before the gig, so my boss is letting me go down that weekend haha 😁

Seen you on a few shoutbox pages and further to your comment on Hatakeyama's, thought to leave you a couple of favourite works. <<Mist>> from 2015 and <<Heavy Snow>>from 2017. Chihei is capable to elaborate visual sound in my opinion; Mist is luminous and airy, then Heavy Snow dense and opaque. Hard to choose in such vast selection of releases though, don't you think? Be well :)

Those melodies are to die for and the nostalgia is overwhelming, Jerry Martin's SimCity 3000 soundtrack is also very nice! Cool library btw :)

Hey, how is it going? You don't know me (I know), but I released my first EP this month along with a video. As I compose, record, produce and mix all by myself, I end up being limited in ways to share around my project, so I'm sharing around here, also I apologize for flooding your chat with this type of info. But if you're interested and want to hear, the songs flirt with elements of dream pop, lo-fi and shoegaze: https://youtu.be/YLwXzEJpRM4

Hey! Funny or what....! I looked on the NMH page and there you were (again!)... Glad you sold your ticket. I know of someone who couldn't sell his and he GAVE it to a friend of mine! Mixed feelings about show actually- but may be the company I was in and the silly girl behind me who kept dancing mentally into me with her huge handbag! Wish I could do the whole thing again... in the meantime, yes- lets be friends and maybe meet again at a gig one day?! Take it easy! :)

Hi Mike! Did you get rid of your ticket? We have super compatibility- no surprise there then! (I guess this is you that I met at Warren St?) Hope so otherwise this person will think me odd...

Then boy do I have a recommendation for you! You've gotta check out [url=http://www.last.fm/music/Chapelier+Fou]Chapelier Fou[/url]. His music is like a marriage between Boards of Canada and Yann Tiersen. I absolutely adore his work.

Same here - I buy albums via bandcamp whenever I'm able, but there are some artists whose albums I simply have to buy in physical form. I've never listened to vinyl, though, from memory! I just listened to Touch/Tone and it's super nice. IARAP is slowly moving away from IDM and towards folktronica. This album combines both sounds and is really pleasant!

Hmm perhaps I should make a moving pixel profile pic...I got the CD and have listened to it a few times. "Opening the Gates" and "Today is Beautiful, We Have Things to do" are two of the best new tracks I've heard this year! Upon looking at your charts I just realised that I haven't checked out the new IARAP album. I've gotta fix this post-haste! Hooray for bandcamp.

Yes! I got mine in the mail the other day. It's a beautiful album. The man has a rare gift. By the way, that's a cool profile pic. D:
