hi... can anyone reccomend me some sad and melancholic music? ryuichi sakamoto-yamazaki 2002 is a good reference i think. thanks. |
||||||||
|

the whole "Love is the devil" soundtrack by the very same ryuchi sakamoto should be pretty good at making you feel a bit shit. it's very good and electronic. y. a lot of tracks on The Books' "the lemon of pink" have a definitive downbeat slant (especially the second half of the album). um.. let me think.. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
dayum! i bet that was at the exact same time :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
i'm not that fond of the books, altho that vocal "the lemon of pink" was rather enjoyable. smtn more down, the books are here and there with emotions. |

you'll notice when it's at more or less the same time when suddenly your connection to Zilty grinds to a halt and it takes a minute or so before you can reload the page. or at least that's my experience. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
WELL WHAT ABOUT LOVE IS THE DEVIL THEN!?!? I'm sorry. I'm alright now. do you want specifically excellent electronic music or any music really? |

winnepeg is a frozen shithole was sad. but a different kind of sad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Check out Angels of Light - "Everything is Good Here". Everything this guy, Gira, makes is sad by definition |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's some sadness on "sung tongs" by Animal Collective ("kids on holiday" always makes me feel sad, but in that "it's going to be alright.. maybe"-way). there's also some very happy stuff on there, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And I guess most of Current 93. Sad as hell, often that different kind of sad. |

Susanna And The Magical Orchestra: List of Lights and Buoys. The coverr of Jolean by Dolly... my lorrd, it's so sad. I've said this beforre on the message boarrd, but when I got this album I was spending most nights awake with the shakes, I was a mess... and this was the only album I could brring myself to listen to. Now it just rreminds me of that time and it gets me upset. Grreat album i can't listen to. |
||||||||

Buy it |

I've had that a lot with Nick Drakes "pink moon". oh my. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, i was thinking about instrumental music, it can have vocals, but that's a whole different sphere. what do you think? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pink pink pink pink, pink moon? that one? i love that song, but i'm not much of a nick drake fan sadly. it's prrobably just because i haven't given the album time enough even though it's been collecting dust forr yearrs now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a great album, but it's so intense to me that i have trouble bringing myself to listen... :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i've had that on vinyl for years. it's one of my favorite albums ever. incredibly dark and sad. as was mentioned earlier in the thread, Gira was the main creative force behind the Swans, and all of the swans music is great imo. not all of it is sad, though. ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's the first song, but I was talking about the whole album, which is also called "pink moon". the song "pink moon" is the most upbeat thing on there, I think. it's downhill from there - but a good although (as Arf says) intense downhill. |

Valentin Silvestrov- Requiem for Larissa, even Current 93 sounds joyous since I've heard this guy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fuck... if i'm in the mood the fucking bee gees can make me crry... 'therre's a light, a cerrtain kind of light, that's neverr shone on me' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I've got it, tucked away somewherre. The only song off it that I can rrememberr is Pink moon itself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
The Bee Gees wail, there's lots of fine ballads on their 60s stuff that can the waterworks going if you've got soul. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should dig it up and listen to "know" and "parasite" (two consecutive tracks). makes me want to go out to the garden and stand naked in the rain, crying. |
||||||||
|

|

lol, you followed up my post even though you meant to follow up Carrl's lol |

It's hard to find melancholic music, isn't it? You really have to ask around, be in the know, have a contact that can put you in touch with "sad" music, terrible. If I didn't have a worldwide network of people furiously digging out the broad spectrum of "downbeat" I'd have only ever heard happy house. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm.... i'm not as familiar with much "sad" music. i've been listening to stuff like pixies and joy division lately. why not go for something obvious, like the Cure's Disintegration? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would hardly call the pixies sad music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wasn't calling them sad at all... i was just saying, i wasn't listening to much sad music lately. (ex. pixies and joy division) okay, so joy division is sad. i can't speak english, man, quit busting my balls. :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
another nick drake song is "the river man" off of five leaves left. i never really got into the whole album but i love the song. and it's sad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you like any classical, the choral masses of palestrina often make me cry - they're quite beautiful. "sicut cervus" and "pope marcellus mass" are both amazing, if you like that sort of thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man, you seriously must try the nre porn sword tobacco!! and i think you're into this kind of music. |

my crying fit yesterday morning had me listening to eels - electro-shock blues. some of the songs may be a bit more upbeat, but the whole album is chock full of saddness. i mean, he friggin wrote the whole thing in a mental institution after his sister died and he had a breakdown. sigur ros and explosions in the sky are also quite melancholy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
El Greco by Vangelis, intense, but the most melancholic piece of music ever must be Symphony nr 3 by Henryk Gorecki, check it and weep... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, and Dead Can Dance, anything by them |

That sounds awesome, I'll check that out, I love Arvo Part's choral stuff and Sven-David Sandstrom and the like. That Silvestrov album I listed has the most affecting choral lines I've ever heard, they make me so sorrowful I have to suppress nausea. |

this would be a perfect opportunity to spam your own music. |

Godspeed you black emperor is the sound of sad |

Youve got some great recommendations, Plaster...ill just emphasize one that Combo mentioned: DEATHPROD. Brilliant. Its not sad in a sense of crying, but it will shift your perspective in a tremendously heavy way, man! Unbelievably strong, i say that box of his was the best 2004 release, especially Treetop drive. In a way which i cant explain (due to my pathetic english) its the saddest album ive ever heard. Blonde Redhead - Blonde Redhead is really sad too, but in a different way. More explicit way, i may say. Screaming guitars, beautiful vocal performing by that cute japanese womangirl Kazu. 'I dont want you' and 'Swing pool' are a blast. Hope youll enjoy these. |
