@ayjay the article contains the most 🤯 I have read so far today …
> all the way back in 1996
@AndySylvester sorry yes .. I wasn’t disagreeing .. on board with you both .. it just kicked the synapses down a side road.
@dave beyond tuned in .. locked on speed dial if you’ll pardon the mixed metaphor 🤪
@amerpie @amerpie I don’t have a single method … but primarily through recommendations of people I know and/or trust their musical taste and likewise artists … for example without Bowie talking … somewhere .. audio .. not print … about Secret Machines they would have remained unknown to me … much less in the ‘got em all’ category … and then sometimes pure serendipity like just this morning on Reddit a contributor comparing Barclay James Harvest to a more modern artist …
BJH? Not the greatest band but definitely high quality .. they did after all give us The Enid … who I happened to be listening to just last night.
The other artist he referenced in his post was someone called Raphael Weinroth-Browne … who I had never heard of before.. but checked him out because referencing BJH .. not exactly unknown … but even in my world massively under referenced .. gave a credibility that warranted a little looksee … and the album he called out is now in my queue to listen to properly … not only that but I looked him up and discovered this performance on YouTube … which I heard when it was first released … because, well 🖇️🎵 Steven Wilson … and this cover of
🔗🎵📼Hand. Cannot. Erase. is just as wonderful as when I first heard it 6 years ago.
Sometimes, it takes time.
@manton later on he also talk about source code - which IMHO the browsers continue to make harder to find - and don’t get me started on trying to empty cache on Safari.
@MitchWagner maybe we should have a chat with @numericcitizen ?
