Stone Temple Pilots - Dead and Bloated

[Decrepit]

With hearing so far gone, I confine myself pretty much to solo piano works these days, which I hear well enough to enjoy. I recently came upon a recording of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No.7 Op.10 No.3 as performed by Louis Lortie. I like it very much. The first moment is played at a fast clip. The second, in contrast, is slower than one often hear it, to good effect though it took me a few measures to acclimate myself to the tempo. This particular video includes two different performances of the piece back to back. I'm not as taken with the second.

Too bad this wasn't a video of him playing it; can you imagine seeing how fast his fingers had to be moving for this? Amazing!

Vnv Nation - Illusion (from the Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice soundtrack) a perfect theme song for a character I am currently writing (over in the Writing Process topic).

Talk about fast fingers...

Here's Liszt's "Reminiscences on (Mozart's opera) Don Juan," as played by a pianist, previously unknown to me, the uploader names 'Okada.' There seems to be a number of pianist bearing that last name. No idea which this is. In any case, the work is fiendishly demanding. Truth to tell, I've not been overly keen on it...until now. Okada handles technical hurtles with apparent ease yet brings out musicality better than I thought possible for a piece of this sort. I suspected it to be a studio recording and was pleasantly amazed when (well justified) audience applause broke out at the end.

(Admittedly, it helps to be familiar with the opera, which I am, to better grasp the melodies Liszt plays around with.)

Ava Max - So am I

[mirocu]

9Muses disbanded awhile ago, having performed for nine years and not won a single music award. I'm gonna quote a comment from this video:

"Tbh when I first got into Kpop I thought 9muses were one of the most popular girl groups for some reason, (there vocals and visuals) but I didn't know they were so underrated"

Drama

[mirocu]

Found a new fave while watching a list video. Really good song and they sure don't stand still much!


Gfriend - Me Gustas Tu

Remix


The remix kicks azz! Perfect club adaptation!



And I already have a bias..

You haven't heard a masterpiece of music until you've heard this. Prepare to be blown away!

(I promise this is NOT a Rick-Roll or anything like that.)

Today at work I heard a woman on the radio saying she can't think of a single Easter song.

LadyBaby! But I didn't see LadyBeard in this vid, why not? (I heard him singing roaring in the background, though; )

[mirocu]

At this point he has left the group and they're no longer Ladybaby but The Artist Formerly Known as Ladybaby. Dunno where they got that idea from...

I wonder who they got to roar in the background like LadyBeard used to? I hear it, but couldn't find credit for the sounds anywhere. It sure sounded like LadyBeard to me, I wonder if they sneaked recordings of his roar and are using it? (I hear he is reuniting with them anyway; so it probably doesn't matter (except for the missing royalties he would be due).
