I was just poking around some Japan/Sylvian stuff online and came aross Paul's Nightporter YouTube channel, of which he has been posting some great new (two or three weeks at time of posting) content on recently. He's trying to make something of it, so worth checking out.

I finally have a vinyl copy of Manafon. I was always cross with myself for not grabbing one from the initial run, so it's wonderful to have this thing of beauty in my hands, and that's without considering the actual music, which I still love. A triple dip, with standard CD, the Deluxe CD and now ...

That last line is really and truly ominous.

Isn't is just. The whole piece is very melancholic, to the point of depression, that actually troubled me, despite it having nothing to do with me directly [and I perversely enjoy melancholia] David feels like a lost soul, with almost nothing left to ...

Thank you so much for all of the help! I didn’t know exactly what I should get on the recording side of things, and I didn’t know anyone local that could help me in the matter.



As for guitars, yeah, love a nice Strat.... Fender is -for me - the guitars I feel most comfortable with. I love the ...

Well, I have 5 guitars (my personal fave is a Fender Stratocaster) and an Ibanez Sound Gear bass that I enjoy fiddling with sometimes. I generally play whatever I feel, which generally ends up being rock or a not very serious form of jazz. I’ve only been playing the guitar for 4 years so I am not ...

Sup’ Homies! :smt006

I was just wondering if anyone around here played any instruments. If so, then how long and what’s your favorite song to play? Since I’m a guitarist I must know these things :P

I don't call myself a musician, but, I do make music and have a multitude of instruments... A ...

Yeah, I hate hardly being able to go out. We’re just starting to attempt to return to normalcy where I am. Masks are so annoying because I can’t see out of my glasses for nuthin’ given all the fog :/

Where are you?.. Lockdown is easing here in the UK (too soon I fear) so we are able to get about ...

Did you ever get Manafon cheap?

Of course not :cry: I look from time to time, but, unless they re-issue it I will never own it on vinyl. I live in hope a charity or junk shop will have it for a bargain price, but, the chance is probably less than finding a gold hoard buried in the garden... and ...

Thanks. Just listened to some of it through Bandcamp and I know what you mean. Reminds me of the soundtrack Cliff Martinez did for the series The Knick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fX4iqI8SYZM

While I was going through the Invada-catalogue I found Adam Taylor's score for The Handmaid's Tale ...

From the Invada-label I have the soundtrack Mandy by Jóhann Jóhannsson. There's a link to David Sylvian here: Skúli Sverrison plays on it.

Ah cool... I love JJ's work, his Arrival ost is amazing... such a shame regarding his death.

Another great ost on Invada is Acradia (Adrian Utley & Will ...

Welcome :) ..... Lots of stuff in this part of the forum.... But, I'm going to go with something slightly different and that is Invada Records, which specialise in original soundtrack scores, although it's not exclusively OST's. Started and still run by Geoff Barrow of Portishead, they work with ...

Lovely

She's great... If you haven't already check out Susanne Sundfør as well, esp. her 'The Silicone Veil' album.

Peace.

Yes indeed TB. Let us hope we get through this with minimal fallout. Do all you can to protect yourselves, and try to keep healthy and strong.

Take care all.
