Cool music to vape to, you know the tunes that move you

[JeeSee]

This is definitely in the running for 2014's definitive sun-drenched, stoner record. Posting this tutorial video of the song for those of you who'd like to play along to this stellar and addictive tune.

Mod post.....

If you recall, we've been asked in the past by members to keep our videos down to 1 - 2 per post (I'm including myself since I post here too). This is to keep the load time of the page to a minimum.

Please only post 1 or 2 videos in a post. It makes the thread more enjoyable if everyone doesn't have to wait a long time for each page to load.

I was going to post this the other day and I, believe it or not, completely forgot!

So here's a little more Calexico.

If you like Morricone soundtracks, you might like this one... especially the second half...

And here's one that belongs in Game of Thrones:

If you like your music with a big dose of Tex-Mex, you can't get much more soulful or mournful or beautiful than Calexico.

I'm starting to wonder if you've been snooping around my album collection, @Seren !

Got really into Mercury Rev after I became obsessed with Sparklehorse and Grandaddy and The Flaming Lips.

One of the finest albums I've ever heard. Raw, sensitive, weird, and real.

- That is a fine album @EveryDayAmnesiac - I haven't heard it in a long while - I might just have to rectify that later today As a thank you for the reminder, this one's for you:

And to celebrate the fact that I managed to bag a ticket to watch these guys on tour, here's a little bit of Madness to start the day:

Edit: @Buildozer - apologies for the horse head!

Might I suggest a melodic relaxing song like. Cortez the killer by Neil young. There is a 20 plus minute version with pearl jam on YouTube. My fav.

This album is just pure, unadulterated melt. his voice sends me to a different place altogether...

In case you don't know van Etten, this is a female musician who was mentally abused time and again by her domineering ex-boyfriend, made to feel like a talentless hack and a parasite who needed him, and then when she finally emerged from this scarred cocoon with the help of friends and family, she made the most heartfelt and wrenching music.

(I'm a music journalist, and as such I get involved in all the stories that I personally find very interesting... I feel they add resonance and depth to what I'm listening to - I tend to get carried away about sharing this stuff though so if you guys think they're boring, let me know and I'll just post videos!)

Hey guys, wanted to introduce you to a French rap band called Chill bump.
Here's one of their best tracks.

I just love their samples and sounds

"Rap duo straight out of Tours (France).
Bankal (Beatmaker) made himself a name in the scratch battle scene.
Miscellaneous (MC) is the lead singer of Fumuj and Rytmétix, and has collaborated with Doctor Flake and Metastaz.
Their trademark : Sample-based beats shaped for versatile flows.
Chill Bump is 100% DIY .
"Pure rap music ain't made under pressure."

You also can listen to all their tracks on their Bandcamp website : right here
