The random music game (Music Talk Post)
This is from my work computer. I should do this again at home.
1. Johnny Moore - Sold To The Highest Bidder
Great country track with a auctioneer vocalization speaking at 400 words per minute.
2. Easy Star All-Stars - Airbag
Dub stars made an album full of Radiohead covers called Radiodread. It works.
3. Bruno Nicolai - Indio Black
Funky 60s/70s theme for a TV show I believe. Think OST for The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.
4. Mathew Jonson - Decompression
Minimal techno from M_nus
5. Mad Doctor X - Deejays and Emcees
Remember puffin the herb from human traffic? This guy made it. UK hip hop.
6. Unknown Artist - Track 1
I believe this is from the OST for Chronos by Ron Fricke. But I found it in a compilation by Stay in Bed called Telepathic Fish.
7. The Field - Mobilia.
From the aptly titled From here we go sublime. I was pleasantly surprised by this album. Great trippy dance tracks.
8. Niyaz - Allah Mazare
Ethnic Farsi modernized music along the lines of Dead Can Dance. Haunting vocals.
9. Track 13 - Pirates of the 21st Century
OST from a classic Russian action film. Instrumental.
10. Nelly Furtado - Maneater.
Am a sucker for Timbaland beats. This one is particularly good.

Ah, Rollins is just displaying his ignorance. For every terrible run-of-the-mill dance track or mindless slab of Eurodisco, there's something amazing by Orbital, Massive Attack, Chemical Brothers, Lemon Jelly, Portishead, Basement Jaxx, Leftfield...
you forgot zero 7,gotan project,dead can dance,amon tobin,sneaker pimps.
those are actual bands...they play instruments..trip hop is amazing.
again,as i stated..i like techno,but i do not agree that having the ability to use reson or acid pro should be a validation of supremacy over actual musicianship.
talented?creative? of course.
more relevant than actual musicians? never.
the bands you posted are just that...bands.
oh..and i am in LOVE with beth gibbons!!!!
Dead Can Dance - The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove (live)
This is my favorite Dead Can Dance song, along with American Dreaming. Nice....grate (can't get used to that).
Saturn V rocket launch - ultra slow motion
The first part sounds like Lisa Gerrard with or without Dead Can Dance
Beautiful hammered dulcimer music: "The Rakes of Kildare"
Wonderful instrument. It's worth checking out some music by Dead Can Dance who use many of these rare and beautiful instruments to make the most fantastic music...

DEAD CAN DANCE - American Dreaming
*obscure
Dead Can Dance use old extinct musical instruments to create real music that is dead.
Dead Can Dance - The Host Of Seraphim
Dead Can Dance is a band comprising Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry. Formed in Melbourne in 1981 and initially based in Australia, it disbanded in 1998 but reunited temporarily for a world tour in 2005.
Assigning a musical genre to Dead Can Dance is difficult, as its style is particularly eclectic. However, its early work could be considered "darkwave". In their later work, including and subsequent to the release entitled The Serpent's Egg, Dead Can Dance would take ancient or various musics from around the world as primary sources, with Gerrard singing glossolalia, giving it a very distinctive style. As a result, their later albums sound quite different from the first three. Various sources have labelled those latter releases as neo-classical, ethereal or dark world music.

Hypnotic and mesmerizing clip from Baraka...
This is my favorite part of the critically acclaimed film Baraka by Ron Fricke, the cinematographer for Koyaanisqatsi.
In addition to making comparisons between natural and technological phenomena, such as in Koyaanisqatsi, Baraka searches for a universal cultural perspective: for instance, following a shot of an elaborate tattoo on a Japanese bather with one of Native Australian tribal paint.
The title Baraka is a word which means blessing in many different languages. The score provided by Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard (from Dead Can Dance) and Michael Stearns is noticeably different from the minimalist one provided by Philip Glass for Koyaanisqatsi. Notable music was also contributed by the band Brother.
I urge people to watch the film in it's entirety in the links provided here.
Deep Forest - Sweet Lullaby
Excellent post! Deep Forest has always been one of my favorite bands, up there with Dead Can Dance. I first heard them, this very song, was on my local alternative radio station. I have never seen this video before today though.
