What is the latest music you downloaded, what resolution and from where?

Posted by: Stevee_S on 13 January 2014

With more music being downloaded I thought it might be interesting to see what forum members are buying and from where. 

 

The news that HD Tracks are soon to open an online UK store means that more choice is going to be available to us. The variety and quality of downloadable music we can choose from is expanding, MP3 to 24bit studio Masters at 192kHz and beyond.

 

So what are you buying and downloading?

Bandcamp FLAC & MP3 320. A couple of albums from KigaGaku Moyo in anticipation of their new release in September. Really good psychedelic stuff Japanese style, totally recommended. 

Here is a sniff of their rather fine stuff:

Crikey. I thought it was just me occasionally listening to Kikagaku Moyo. It’s great stuff. Thanks Stevee I didn’t know there was a new album out soon. You might also be enjoying Cornelius already. But recommend the new album Mellow Waves. Happily I caught Cornelius playing live at the Field Day festival this summer in London. I don’t know why, but I find a lot of this Japanese music fascinating and great fun to explore. Any other suggestions?

Badger,

Try...

Minami Deutsch - particularly their first one

Sundays & Cybele

Joseph Of Kirezi

Cosmic Invention (by way of the erratic but superb Ghost)

Hi Badger, its good to find someone else on the forum who enjoys Kik' Mo', their new album is called Masana Temples and is due for release on October 5th (not September as I had originally thought) linked here at bandcamp. I don't know enough about other Japanese bands who cover psychedelic as well as Kik'Mo so I can't recommend many others, it is an area that I would really like to investigate further when I am in the mood and time permits. Try this sampler album from the Guruguru Brain Wash  label (who publish Kik'Mo) its almost free to download and showcases various Japanese artists who specialise in psychedelic music which may help in your search there are 21 tracks on it which may set you on your way?

So much music so little time to play it all! You could try this album by Japanese band コンシャスTHOUGHTS called Sun, Sea and Surfing, it is not psychedelic, tagged as being nu disco, chillwave, future funk and vapourwave, all electronic its rather fun andlinked here over at bandcamp.

Thanks for your Cornelius suggestion and heads up I'll give Mellow Waves a go. Cheers and ATB. Steve
