Slow Music recommendations. - carbon_psycho - 11-01-2010
I couldn't think of a better topic name..
I am looking for some slow music... something along the lines of Beck - Everybody's got to learn sometime.
Kind of music you would want to listen to when you're down & low.

Hi Carbon
When I read your post the following came to my mind............Try Nick Drake
There are three albums ( Maybe four )
Five Leaves Left
Bryter Later
Pink Moon
Many people find Nick a touch depressive ( Perhaps because his life was not that bright but it might be along the right lines )
Gryphon

not really, just Antony, which like most music for me, has grown on me after repeated listenings.
By my original comment I only meant that I was truly impressed with the length of your list.
I do know that you have a varied interest, but mistakenly was under the impression that your primary area was electronic.
I respect your knowledge and will check some of these out because of your post, as I do with most of our members.

other than gryphons excellent Nick Drake suggestion all that comes to mind for me right now is, very early Bruce Cockburn.
