Wow, that's a terrific song! Post rock you say? I've never heard of that genre, but I'll have to investigate. The style is right inline with my tastes. Downtempo instrumental rock.

i know they're a d'n'b group, but d'n'b outfits commonly make excursions into different genres. photek did that house album. omni trio did some house. noisia has done some electro. hidden agenda has a house outfit. a lot of them have done breaks tunes, downtempo/hip hop tunes, dubstep/grime tunes, ambient tunes, etc. etc.

d'n'b/jungle is quite specifically between 160 and 180 bpm. this is quite a bit slower and is using a breaks format.

Great find. I've just recently discovered the whole downtempo genre, ie. Air, Zero 7, etc. I'm digging it.

Hooray:) Lovage is in the air!
merci..more triphop/downtempo on the sift. Mint!

This video is likely never to be found again, as Mr. Morrison tend's to defend his copyrights with great vigor. I'll describe it to you:

The video is in black and white, with a young, long haired and possibly intoxicated van swaying at the mirophone, telling a screaming fan that he'd play the song if he'd 'shut the F&#k up. It was a great, emotional and somewhat downtempo live performance and since it was low light and black and white film digitized for YouTube, so it had both the feel of real emulsion and a soft pixelation, as you can probably sense from the thumbnail.

So, VideoSift, Sorry I couldn't find the replacement but offer to you instead this fascinating article by WFMU's website 'beware the blog', regarding an album that Van recorded to sourly satisfy a contractual obligation, wherein he sings off-the cuff songs about breakfast pastries and whatnot, with full mp3 of each track...

Merci, the video has been sifted now:)

An inspiring idea, dft. I believe I must also undertake some research on this subject, albeit in a slightly different direction. The outline is as follows:

Criteria (as indicated by this video material):
All of my wife's (hereinafter, Test Subject No.1) underwear falls strictly into the 'naughty' category, as classified by one of my extremities. That's one.
Second-although I'm not entirely sure (more qualitative data need to be collected via hands-on approach/observations), it is likely Test Subject No.1 has masturbated at least once.

Hypothesis:
Test Subject No.1 is homosexual.

Method:
Upon initial brainstorming the most effective method for verifying the hypothesis seems to be subjecting Test Subject No.1 to camera-monitored and recorded close proximity of a visually pleasing specimen of the same gender, preferably homosexual, robed also in what can be classified as 'naughty' underwear. I also acknowledge other conditions such as downtempo music, presence of lit candles and a dip of aphrodisiac in the preceding cuisine/ventilation system might benefit eliciting a more rapid response from both Test Subjects.

I only wonder, to whom should I turn for financing such research?

nice relaxing downtempo track..
don't like the video too much, the diapositive filter is quite annoying here I think.

Just posted this Nightwish video:

This is just all kinds of awesome.

Shpongle (IPA: ˈʃpɒŋ.gl̩) is considered to be one of the most important and influential psychedelic downtempo or Psybient music projects of recent years. The members are Simon Posford (aka Hallucinogen) and Raja Ram (one third of The Infinity Project). Their sound is a mix mainly consisting of sampled eastern ethnic instruments and western contemporary synthesizer-based psychedelic music. Posford is responsible for the synth and studio work while Raja Ram contributes with flute arrangements. They are both responsible for the visionary input. According to one interview, they commonly visualize the music together before they create it, and during the creation process.

Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), also known as N,N-dimethyltryptamine, is a powerful psychoactive substance. If DMT is smoked, injected, or orally ingested with an MAOI, it can produce powerful entheogenic experiences including true hallucinations (perceived extensions of reality). This is the come down...
