I can't remember if we have a thread for this already, but here it is again, in any case.

Over the past year, I've acquired quite a bit of music from the artists listed below, prompted by discussions / threads by other Radio Mute members.

The Ex, Roland Kirk, Love, Venetian Snares, Herbie Nichols, Amon Tobin

So, to everyone else, "what artists have you looked into, and grown to love, since becoming a member at Radio Mute?"

My list would be HUGE. At least half of all the music that I have started listening to since I stopped listening to nu metal has been due to RM.

My list would be fairly decent as well. All I have to do is look for Seba, Satchmo and Panbient posts

Here are a few that I have either recently checked out or found I really like in the last year or so, as a result of Radiomute:

Uz Jsme Doma, Xploding PLastix, Jaga Jazzist, A Silver Mount Zion, Ruins

Well here were some of the first ones:
The Dillinger Escape Plan
Nile
Opeth
Converge
Naked City
Saint Vitus
Neurosis
Ruins
Darkthrone
My Dying Bride
Thergothon
Warhorse
Sepultura
Jack Frost
The Locust

Et tu, Geryon?..no Welk?

The ones I posted were the first ones that I started listening to as a result of RM, but yes more recently Lawrence Welk.

Just off the top of my head I'd say Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Ryan Adams, Calexico, Pinback, Sepultra, Piano Magic, Mars Volta, Elliot Smith and I actually learned to better appreciate the music of Queen.

There are a lot more but I can't recall them all at this time of the evening.

Holy shit, where to start....

Here are some notables after a quick browse through iTunes:

Chicago
Genesis
King Crimson
Opeth
Van der Graaf Generator
and most importantly of all....YES!

Someone that I hipped to Rahsaan Roland Kirk, was the one that hipped me to Godspeed You Black Emperor.


It did take him posting their name about 500 times, for me to finally give them a listen.

Do you need to remind of his "correct" name every time?

His birth name is still "Roland Kirk", and it's easier to type quickly...
