I was thinking on a new series and recieved a great comment yesterday under the Computer Music Magazine tape 12 post, with one series of compilations that caught my eyes and ears called Lammas Night Laments which is a series of compilations that was put out in 2005 of neofolk music. I'm a huge fan on the genre and I'm thinking of doing that next.I've not heard of most of the bands on Lammas Night Laments. However, there are a couple of post punk compilations I have been dying to hear since I found them last week. They are just one offs and not a series of tapes, but thought it would be fun to listen along.
I think I will call this "The Listening Centre" You know those parts of the classroom back in the 70s and 80s (telling my age here) and they would have a record player and or cassette player and a bunch of head phones that would connect into a box that was plugged into the audio players that children would listen to an educational record or tape on? I think I'll call this that.
I'll choose a compilation that's off the internet archive, or even bandcamp and youtube, where it's easily excessable to everyone, we all take a listen, and I pick something, and if readers want, they can tell me which they prefer, or just have fun listening to some new bit of music. Kind of like a book club for music lovers. Also always feel free to leave a comment on what you would like to contribute as well. As long as it is underground/independant. I won't do Spotify, just because I don't like how they treat artists, and their dubious corporate shennanigans, also that you have to sign up to it to listen.
