Hey /mu/ I've become obsessed with James Ferraro and I've kinda daunted by his huge discography so I was wondering if anyone can give me some recs or a flow chart for good albums to listen to. So far I've heard Far Side Virtual, NYC, Hell, 3:00AM, Cold, Sushi, Suki Girlz, Nightdolls with Hairspray and Condo Pets and I've loved all of them.

Most of his earlier stuff follows more in the vein of Nightdolls than any of his more recent hi-fi stuff.
That being said, if you liked Nightdolls, Feed Me and On Air are both pretty similar and easy to get into. Also, the 1992 Cool Runnings tape by Lamborghini Crystal is really similar and worth a look
If you liked On Air, iAsia's a pretty good next point
If you liked Feed Me, try listening to Last American Hero
Edward Flex presents: Do You Believe in Hawaii is a decent bridge between his guitar based poppy stuff and the rest of the noise collage works that fill up most of the rest of his catalog. Citrac and KFC City are both really good if you want to try some of that stuff out.
If you liked FSV and Condo Pets, God of London and the Live at Primavera Sound set are the next closest things, but as far as older Ferraro stuff goes Pixarni would be your safest bet to get into his new age work.
After that you should check out Heaven's Gate and Marble Surf definitely, the latter's probably one of the best things he's done imo

You're right! This entire thread was a trick to see if you'd fall for our cleverly elaborated prank...
And you didn't! You are correct, my good friend!
You have passed the test and proven your good taste to the whole /mu/!
