Haven't heard of that. As with NBBMN I won't be listening exclusively to dream pop, but I consider it a great oppurtunity to learn something more about the genre.

>purist shoegaze (late 80's early 90's in UK)
>Ectassy of Saint Theresa - Czech band with major releases in early 00's

what are you even doing?

and you're missing Ambersmoke. like seriously, you're missing Ambersmoke.

>>42054306
I was wondering about that too.

>>42054306
>>42054317
I didn't make the chart, so it probably haves a few mistakes. Ecstasy of Saint Theresa was formed in 1990 though

I guess this is a good place to ask:
What's the difference between shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop and nu gaze?

>>42054387
>shoegaze
kind of a blanket term. music that relies on hazy instrumentation, creating a dreamy feel. often heavy use of effects, especially reverb. it could be noisy, ala mbv, or it could be mellow, ala slowdive

>dream pop
more conventional structure, verse/chorus, the music won't really be as harsh/noisy as others

>noise pop
like dream pop, except more noisy instead of mellow.

>nu gaze
modern shoegaze bands

>>42054191
Cool! I've been on this Dream Pop kick the past few days, listening to some 2013 releases.

Fucking love that genre man.

>>42054252
What exactly is the appeal of MBV. I'm trying to get into them and I do like a few songs like Only Shallow, Loomer, and Sometimes and one song I can't remember the name of off the first LP but most everything else just sounds the exact same droning over. Something like Lush or Asobi Seksu has very distinct, at least for me, differences between songs.

>>42055225
I had mine tagged as 'romaji (hiragana)' but, it was causing problems with last.fm. Their 'official' last.fm tag is just the hiragana.

>>42055150
Yea, chillwave is just dreampop. I'd say it's fair game.

I'm loving the hell out of this thread. TYVM OP and everyone participating. I do have one question though, I'm kind of a pleb when it comes to these genres.. I'm just wondering what you guys consider to be the best "shoegaze" album outside of the big 3 (nowhere, loveless, souvlaki)?

Astrobrite might be one of the most bland and uninspired shoegaze bands I had ever been recommended to. Don't fall for that bait.

Does anyone else share a love for this particular album?
Back in 2010 when I was just starting to broaden my music taste I accidentally downloaded Gemini and instantly fell in love with it.
Still holds up to me as one of the best modern dream pop/shoegaze records.
Summer Holiday might be my most listened track on lastfm anyways.
Their early EPs are just as great, too bad they've been falling down in quality since Nocture, which was a lot less shoegazy and now Empty Estate, a straight new wave album. What a waste.

>>42056726
I'm totally with you. Fell asleep the first time I listened to it, though. It's just so dreamy.

Nocturne was quite a let down, but maybe I just wasn't giving it much of a chance.

Halley - Forget The Leaves, Autumn Will Change Us
>Shoegaze, Dream Pop
https://mega.co.nz/#!4oVEEQyB!ECPzhlNGiJmEgIWvdoOkkCTgGlh2VKNY-lltyR-N4E4

The song I was looking for wasn't on youtube, but it is on last.fm here
http://www.last.fm/music/Halley/_/Herkimer+Battle+Jettne+(Record+Player,+Part+2)
I had to use this as the sample, it's such a fucking great song. Well, hope you enjoy the shares. Goodnight, I have to try and sleep now.

Guys I'm probably the biggest pleb on this whole thread. I've only listened to the following albums

Loveless
MVB
Nowhere
Souvlaki
Halcyon Digest
Microcastle

I've loved all of them with the slight exception of Souvlaki, recommend me stuff pls.

>>42056900
>able to love Nowhere
>can't into Souvlaki
ugh

>>42056900
Just look at the essentials chart or a rym list or something.

>>42056900

Listen to the samples in this thread and download the ones you like, baby.

>>42056895
thanks m8
good rest and thanks for the shares :^)

>>42056777
Woah, I'm loving this.

>>42056849
You're welcome bb ;)

>>42056900
You should give Souvlaki another listen, it's one of the best albums the genre offers

you're all lovely

>>42056974
No we're loveless

>>42056900
If you're liking MVB, listen to a few more of their albums: Isn't Anything and EPs & Rarities 1988-1991.

MBV can have the best album in the genre but Slowdive has the most consistent discography. Pic related is their most shoegazy record.

>>42057008

>mbv
>best shoegaze

top kek

>>42057008
nah listen to the demos and unreleased tracks from the Souvlaki sessions m8

There, now I'm done.

>>42057275
thx for shares

>>42055776
Where the fuck did you get a physical copy???

>>42054954
been wondering where to start with this band, would this be a good place?

>>42057659
>been wondering where to start with this band
I dont understand why people ask this question. Start at the beginning of their discography. Isnt it obvious?

>>42056832
thanks for all the fish!

>>42057739
I like to start with whatever is generally considered their best album.

>>42057739
I like to start with a band's seminal release

>>42057659
doesnt matter where you start, just listen to it. 3-D is great too

>>42057838
>>42057862
What's the point of this? All it does is color the music and possibly stop you from listening further if you happen to dislike it.

>>42057892
Just start with their worst.

>>42057308

Thx for being so cute ;)

Candy Claws - Ceres and Calypso in the Deep Time

there's not in general such thing as an artists "best album", trying to order things in a line doesn't work because there's more dimensions to music than just one. Sure sometimes an album is just terrible and obviously far worse than any of the others but that's exceptional.

>Made a playlist of a lot of new stuff from this thread and a handful of favourites

1.5 days worth of dreamgazing music. Gonna need more to last the month.

>>42057892
What if their first is terrible?

>>42057899
I just pick whatever album has the coolest cover or title. That's kind of another good point tho. If you start with a band's "best", and buy into that stuff, then it's all just downhill from there.

>>42057964
I didn't say anything about starting with the first. If that stops you from going any further, than so be it. I find most bands are worth a few albums at least. I don't consider my time to be so precious that I can't give a band a few hours out of my day.

>>42057927
hahah yes such a good album, glad someone posted it

>>42058010
Sorry, thought you were the other guy.
Anyways, as of late I've been pretty busy, so it's hard to give just one band as listen through a few albums, although it would be nice to.

>>42056549

Outside of those, I'd say

Alison's Halo - Eyedazzler
Kitchens of Distinction - Strange Free World
Astrobrite - 8 Candy EP
lovesliescrushing - xuvetyn

Anything scott cortez touches is magic, seriously.

Nothing But Doom December has the more popular thread. ;-;

>>42057927
My AOTY
Highly recommended

>>42058069
Yea, fair enough. People should listen to music however they want. I just never understood that particular concept. Even still, I never get why people post that when they can just look at the band's RYM page and figure out what is considered the best.

>>42058136
I do have to agree with you there, the posting like that is a bit pointless.

>>42056484

They do have some stuff I consider Dream Pop, but I really just want to post them whenever I can. They deserve so much more attention.

Popularity =/= quality ;)

>>42058180
true, true. purple and nanae are absolutely goat albums.

>>42058103
>>42058597
We can co-exist in lush harmony. I'm just happy /mu/ is talking about music.

>>42058675
I wish we could discuss thing outside of circlejerks, don't get me wrong, I like this circlejerk and all, but it's the only way there's any discussion that doesn't devolve into name calling.

>>42058794
Yea, whatevs. /mu/ is a really normal board, so it is what it is.

>>42058794
>>42058675
I'm happy we could pull this off without someone entering and bitching about it (well, with a few exceptions).

And I hope we'll do a this a few times more through the month :)

>>42058972
This needs to be a daily thing.

>>42056955
This is a great album! Thanks.

I don't think we should refer to it as dreamgaze, because people will think that's a genre

Listened to Souvlaki for the first time today.

>It matters where you are
I fucking cried through this whole song. I've been missing out.

>>42058316
This so hard

>>42058987
Hell yes, any kind tripfriend could do it tomorrow? I won't be able to start one early :/

>>42059025
When the sun hits might be one of the greatest songs ever recorded

>>42058987
Agreed

>>42059105
Every Sunday in December would be better honestly.

>>42058987
I don't have enough space on my hard drive for this to be a daily thing ;_;
Time to get an external

>>42059105
I was gonna make them whenever they hit bump limit if you weren't around. I don't see the need for a trip. Someone can just call it whenever the thread gets to 250. They should include a link to the old thread though.

>>42059105
I'd start one up if I was awake for it, hopefully someone will decide to do it if we can't.

Guy who posted a lot of these albums here, someone post some Yo La Tengo. I forgot to and I'm in bed now.

We gonna do some listen alongs and such? I'd totally be down.

>>42059140
Yeah, this should be weekly. Daily might be a bit much.

>>42059187
Is Yo La Tengo shoegaze/dream pop?
I would love if someone did up them, then. I've been pretty interested in getting into them, recently.

Would check the archives for any links, though I don't know anything about the albums so wouldn't post them.

>>42059207
That'd be awesome. Maybe the big three, as well as more obscure releases?

>>42059025
>>42059110

I cried so hard I got sick, the first time I listened to that. It's fucking intense, especially if someone you love is burning so fast it scares you ;_;

>>42059140
>>42059211
Weak shit, anons.

>>42059211
NBBN got away with it, I think there's enough dreampop and shoegaze out there.

Plus it's a good way for new people to explore the genre if there's a thread every day

>>42059236
IMO they're the epitome of noise pop

>>42059236

Some of their albums are more so than the others, but yes. Also, they are probably the most consistently good band I've ever heard. They've been around for 25 years and don't have a single bad album imo.

>>42059237

We should kick it off with Souvlaki and then end the month with Loveless.

>>42059207
I'd love to do one, but I don't even know how to create a listen along or even have control of the time zones and all that stuff

>>42059252
Great, but we can't upload the same albums on every thread

>tfw there will never be a music scene as great as the early 90s shoegaze scene ever again
>tfw you will never be a part of it

>>42058316
This is one of the most unique approaches to shoegaze I've listened to. This and Coaltar of The Deepers.

this thread is so great, i don't even know where to start

uploading new wave hotdogs (to la tengo) right now

>>42059236
Painful is shoegaze, And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out could be considered dream pop

>>42059293
You don't have to spam shares. Just chill out on those shits.

>>42059293
I know how to set them up. We just need a tinychat room and a set time.

The time is the least important of our worries. People just choose a certain minute, ie. XX:30 and sync with time.is.

I suggest something by Slowdive.

>>42059332

Also, put up Painful, I Can Hear The Heart, and And Then Nothing... Those should definitely be in the archive. Those are essential shoegaze/dream pop records. Hell, they're essential records for music in general.

>>42059365

Souvlaki should be the first. Then start digging into the lesser known gems.

>>42059365
We could do Just for a Day instead of Souvlaki, as the later is more "classic" and we've heard it more times than Just for a Day.

I'll do a strawpoll to decide it if you guys suggest some albums to do the listenalong :D

>>42059017
dreamgaze describes the kind of shoegaze and dreampop that i actually want to listn to

>>42054924
Wow, thanks a lot mate

/mu/ hasn't had a thread this good since 2009

>>42059471

That's impossible. I contributed a lot to this thread, and I suck.

>>42059471
it's not that good a thread, just a bunch of shares from the archives and then everyone congradulating themselves

>>42059416
>>42059421

I'd have to agree with Souvlaki since I've listened to Just for a Day way too much in the past month.

It's one of the most celebrated shoegaze/dream pop records so it would be good to draw people in.

>>42059460
So you're telling me that there are people who already think its a genre

>>42059514
Yea, this thread was kinda wack if you weren't looking for new music.

>>42059557
>>42059514

Yes, but thanks to this the next ones won't have this records on them, and we could have more lesser known shoegaze/dream pop shares

>>42059583
And maybe even some discussion.

>>42059630
Sure, but with the tinychat we'll have a ton of discussion ;)

>>42059671

Sent ;)

So what's the best dream pop song ever?
My vote would go to either Mazzy Star's Fade Into You or the Field Mice's Emma's House.

>>42059954
>never listened to these albums before

wow, son. get on it. start with I Can Hear The Heart

>>42060102

yeah so its not free, but this band kills it. Bought the LP a few days ago, cool vinyl.

stream this release, its real good

Will do. Currently listening to >>42056616
Liking it quite a lot.

>>42055297
Great album, fucking love it.
Also, can witch house be considered synth-gaze?

>>42060259
In a sense, sure. I wouldn't lump it in with regular dreampop/shoegaze tho. It's way too stylistically different, even if it does take a bit of influence from them.

Is anyone still up for a listen along?

>>42056415
>>42056863
the password's "japshare"

Anyone have any French shoegaze that's not blackgaze? AKA lyrics in French? I'm doing a culture Presentation for my class and it'd be cool to get this to link to that.

>>42060411
Maybe it's "ifuckkids".

>>42060102
Here She Comes it's the best shoegaze ballad for sure

I'm really uniformed when it comes to dream pop. What would you recommend to someone who loves Beach House? I like all their stuff, but Bloom is just great.

I have also listened to Wild Nothing too.

>>42060416
too much singing

>>42060847
Que veux-tu dire, mon garçon?

what's some actually good dream pop? I tried Mazzy Star but found it incredibly boring

>>42060952
how dreampop works is you let it bore you to sleep then dream you're listenin to something better

is there a last.fm group?

>>42060991
nope, someone better create one

>>42055587
woah nobody replied to this, it's a great band so you should def check them out!!!

>>42061027
>>42060991
I'm on it unless someone else already is

>>42061027
i guess i can do it. should i call it "Dreamgaze December" or "Dreampop December"?

Thanks man, I was looking for not black metalish stuff though, just pure dream pop/shoegaze

I don't actually have that much shoegaze/dream pop but I like what I have so this might be a good month to explore. I'll just share one of my favorites.

pasteboard - glitter
>Japanese shoegaze/dream pop. Very light on the noise, generally slow, meandering and warm
http://www.mediafire.com/download/3q62rdu402dybmm

Also here's a very underrated release from bandcamp. It's got vocaloid shit but the vacuums are amazing
http://siestaonsunday.bandcamp.com/album/straydays-e-p

>>42060952
Cocteau Twins

Elizabeth Fraser's voice is amazing

>>42056558
Eh, I'm the exact opposite on that.

Colour Trip was kind of boring for me to listen to, but Mauve is one of my favorite albums because of how energetic and slightly harsh it is at times. I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority on that though because I remember everyone here mad of how Mauve wasn't Colour Trip 2.0

>>42054576
No it doesn't

>>42058105

>>42061139
Alright, this is great, but the group pic is really bad, change it to loveless or Souvlaki or something shoegaze-related but that looks good as main pic

Does Seapony count? I don't want to wimp out and fail on the first day

>>42062145
Yeah this

You can put the chart pic in the about section for the group so everyone can see it better.

>>42062178
Wel RYM says they are dreampop so I guess they count.

>NBDPD and NMDMD going on at the same time

Dang, I wish people weren't split. I don't like doom metal enough to listen to it for an entire month.

Does anybody else have a problem when using Mega? 3 out of 4 times when it gets to 100%, it wont let me open the file and asks me to search for it.

Still haven't slept, glad to come back and see you guys making progress and that someone posted the Yo La Tengo records.

Yeah. I usually find a temp file on my desktop and then I just rename it to a .rar and it's fine.

So we're going by if it says it's dream pop on RYM it's fine right?

>>42062880
Sure.

Quick question though, is Shoegaze allowed?

>>42054906
why are you being mean

>>42062914
yes

Why are nips so obsessed with Shoegaze?

>>42063031
They aren't really, it's just a smaller group like how it is in the west.

>>42054902
Good stuff right here. 3rd track especially

So does Melody's Echo Chamber count or is that more psychedelic?

>>42063528
yes it counts

>>42063528
Make your own guidelines dude, dream-pop and psychedelia can be as close as dream pop and shoegaze sometimes

>>42063528
RYM gives it the go ahead.

new thread?

>>42063585
This, just decide on your own, it's just a little fun.
Personally i'm not going to count particularly psychedelic albums since that's mostly what I listen to, anyway.
