frankie Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I go through phases but a playlist of Thievery Corporation, Esbjorn Svensson Trio and Cinematic Orchestra is the perfect was to chill out after a busy day. Interesting I have to say Thievery Corporation isn't the type of music that's my most favorite cup of tea, but I remember a phase years ago when I listened to it and some other similar bands. I wish I could remember the others, though. Boards of Canada! Boards of Canada! Edited January 5, 2015 by frankie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could remember the others, though. Okay, this is not that kind of music but this is something I used to listen to at the same time: I have a High Contrast album, very good music for the gym. Boards of Canada! Boards of Canada! I was aware of the band by name but never heard their stuff. I'll have to check them out in more depth.

frankie Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I've heard this song on the radio many, many times, and I didn't initially like it, but it's grown on me. I just googled it and found out it's by Danko Jones, a band I've heard of many times but have never listened to it. Might have to check it out now.

Melodious Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Born a Lion is a great album by Danko Jones. I've been listening to a lot of Tom Waits this week. One of a kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankie Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Born a Lion is a great album by Danko Jones. I think I will have to check out the band, thanks I don't normally listen to HIM, but this song started playing in my head last night in bed and it took me a while to remember what it was called. Listening to it now. Edit: Moving on to another Finnish band. I can't believe it's been over 10 years! I still love this album.

poppy Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) Got to say Mark Knopfler is my favourite guitarist ever. His playing is heartbreakingly beautiful. The first time ever I heard Dire Straits, I fell in love with their music and have never grown tired of it.

frankie Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I haven't heard this song in ages! One of the most beautiful songs ever (And I'm proud to say that the ice dancers in the video are Finnish skaters Susanna Rahkamo and Petri Kokko (and they are married in real life )).

chesilbeach Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 ^ That was the first single I bought with my own money, Kay. I adore Kirsty and still regularly listen to her brilliant Tropical Brainstorm album, particularly good for singing along to in the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
