@GraemeE all seriousness though, I stand by the fact that low frequencies and sub bass helps me sleep, I'll play Life Metal at low volume regularly if in ever struggling to drift off. Pryoclasts too, even more drone-cebtric!

[jerkules]

Totally with you @T4920 a lot of people nowadays listen to white/grey/pink/brown noise to help them fall asleep. I’ve also relied on Sunn O))) many times to drift off (but usually rely on earphones to preserve my marriage).

[GraemeE]

@T4920 I get it - my youngest 2 have a sound machine in their room for bedtime with low frequency ocean sounds and such

[T4920]

@jerkules great minds think alike with black midi! Honestly they're my favourite band of all time, and Marlene is just magical... I've seen them live 5 times and they've never played it though...

[jerkules]

@T4920 lots of crossover in music taste which is always great to find. And yeah Marlene is a really special song, gives me the chills at the “my shuddering neighbour…” part. Never seen them live, much to my shame…

[T4920]

@jerkules I'll holla next time I see them in London!

[T4920]

'Odd Time' round and no Tool!? Did every think it was too obviously like me haha?

[T4920]

Holy shit, Fuck Buttons... One of the best things I've ever heard!

[GraemeE]

I'm having a hard time picking a song to downvote this round
They are all rad

[ARNC]

Interesting round - I thought I had a good idea where my votes would go when I scanned the list. Then I listened …

Let’s just say I responded to some songs in ways I wouldn’t have predicted (based on the list or my usual preferences).

[T4920]

@ARNC I was never into Avicii. Always rolled my eyes at his music, but I watched the video to The Nights after watching a memorial to him when he passed, broke out into a sobbing fit, it just really hit me...

I get goosebumps whenever I've heard the song since.

[GraemeE]

@ARNC not sure how we were both able to submit the same tune but if anyone had to get 2 slots on a round I'm glad it was marc bolan

[ARNC]

@GraemeE that confused me too. I think I owe you a couple of upvotes, not that you need them at the moment! Not sure how easy it will be to guess which choices are yours in the remaining rounds.

[GraemeE]

@ARNC I had quite an unfair advantage this time around having been the one to come up with most of subjects for each round

[T4920]

This is really gonna test the limits of what is classed a song as apposed to just noise hahaha...

[ARNC]

I’m quite looking forward to seeing what we have chosen to inflict on each other!

[Tago Mago]

I went with artists that I hate. The song itself is secondary to me

[Nocturama]

Missed a couple rounds - apologies. Back in the game, if only to stave off finishing in last place!
Problem being, I’ll now have to wade through this impending Play List…dang!

[ARNC]

With the timing of this round I’m considering doing a deal with myself - if I listen to the whole playlist without skipping, I’ll give myself a suitable reward at the weekend!

[chrisjohnnick]

woof, with having family in town over the weekend and being sick for a few days it looks like I missed the last couple of rounds. sorry all!
