Lamborghini Crystal......now that is modern day lo-fi creep out bedroom music at its finest! Completely enthralling. Check it out if you haven't. I couldn't begin to describe it. Its like taking the Ariel Pink aesthetic and twisting to a new creepy dimension. I love lo-fi music. Especially when you ...

Loveless is one of those albums much like Pet Sounds and Bowie's Low where when I first got a hold of it I locked myself away, put it on repeat and didn't talk to anyone for a month. Its one of those albums thats so amazing it consumes you, takes you to a place and keeps you captive until you are re...

Wow, you really cracked the Ariel Pink production code. Cool sounds. Thanks! Ariel amazes me, I have no idea what the hell he does.

I like the way it sounds and the whole feel of the album. To me it almost has a DIY metal aesthetic to it......there is no bass though and I don't even re-call hearing a bass guitar.

That is a good read. Makes me want to listen to her music out of respect. This is my favorite quote: "Vinyl just creates a little more discussion for us. You get to look at the covers, the liner notes, sometimes the lyrics are included. Plus you can roll a doobie on it. That's hard on an Ipod." The...

Okay I know there may not be a lot of fans of him on here since he is a lo-fi guy and a lot of you either work in studios or have your own..but for those familiar with his sound what are your thoughts?....I already know he beatboxes his drumbeats Is he mic-ing instruments or lining in? Is distortion...

I don't have a harmonizer, I'm not sure that's the sound on snare for the first few songs on that album. It's like the pitch goes down? Also, what's up with the cymbal on the left channel in 'Sound and Vision'? That crazy Eno... I'm not sure exactly how the harmonizer was used but I garantee that's...

The snare drum has a harmonizer on it

I hate steely dan....dead and dry sounding horrible shit, their fans should be gassed

How the hell do they get the bass to sound like a tuba on this song?

I thought this was worth posting: this record was made in a bedroom by one person only?? just to show that creativity is the one priceless element needed in every studio in order to make anything half decent. great record, great songs, great sound IMHO. check this out, BBC minidocu: http://www.yout...

I'm not a big Zeppelin fan but "For your Life" off Presence is my favorite song......its sleeeeeeeeaaaaaazzzzzy
