Sufjan Stevens "Silver & Gold"
You can download one of my favorite tracks, Barcarola, here:http://fuckyeahsufjanstevens.tumblr.com/post/2379346537/sufjan-stevens-barcarola-you-must-be-aI'm not sure it's the same version as the album although both feature the Dessner brothers fr... 
Sufjan Stevens "Silver & Gold"
Forgot to mention, so far Gloria (Volume 6) is my favorite. I think it's more like his acoustic, maybe Seven Swans/Michigan style, some even sounding like A Sun Came. 
Anyone listen to Alva.Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto?
Ironically, I posted in another thread yesterday a recommendation for the Grishca Lichtenberger release's both on Raster Noton and Semantica. These again lean harder to the experimental side but I think they are brilliant works. 
Anyone listen to Alva.Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto?
How refreshing to see this thread here.I also love all of their collaborations, beautiful records. Raster-Noton has been putting out leading edge electronic stuff for a long time. I'd say the records you are referring to are much more "musical" th... 
"NEWEST'" Favorite album
Awww, shucks. Thanks for reviving this thread. Madfloyd and I have since become friends and this was our first little chat...the above posts where he basically tells me my musical interest sucks. Now we've moved on to the point where he tells me m...

Well first I also applaud Peter for his willingness to see if his beliefs actually hold true in application. I respect that a great deal (not that anyone cares!).As has been mentioned, in my experience many of the cheapos, even to the plain hospit...

Terrence Dixon "From The Far Future Part 2"Tresor release that had been on my list for a while and I finally got around to picking it up. I'd sure been missing a fine one. Real nice bit of dark tech/house with lots going on under the hood, just ho...

Ejlif...is that available anywhere?! I saw it was coming and have looked around on the web but no luck so far. Feel free to PM me some directions. That has the makings of a great one on paper.

Andy Stott "Luxury Problems"Ok, this one is 10/10 for me and if you liked "We Stay Together" and "Pass Me By"....you'll love this. The master of totally f**k*d bass, beats and twisted vocals weaving in and out of rhythms from some dark warehouse i...

Interesting story that feels relevant to this discussion...I met one of my closest friends here on Audiogon a few years back, Jim. A side note, this is one of the reasons the new format troubles me. It's not possible to develop relationships like ...

Interesting thread.I've done some hands/ears on research here with my system and after several rounds I have settled on Oyaide R-1 outlets which clearly sound best with my gear. The outlets I have tried off the top of my head: Cheapo Lowes, PassSe...

A couple I have really been enjoying recently and highly recommend:Juju & Jordash "Techno Primitivism""Staggering new album of fusioneering 'Techno Primitivism' from the A'dam-based Israeli ex-pats, Juju & Jordash. It's fair to call this t... 
Dylan's "Tempest" Dylan haters need not reply
I really wanted to like this album more than I actually do. I'm finding his old timey thing sort of tiring these days and the album as a whole seems very forgettable and ordinary. His voice has become cartoony, some of which feels intentional. Hav...
