Fine tastes in this thread.
So, only five is impossible, If i had to flee right now it would be :
- Prince - Parade
- Motorpsycho - Blissard
- Mr.Bungle - Discovolante
- Disasterpeace - Hyper Light Drifter OST
- Deerhoof - The Runners Four
If it really is a desert island then I’ll take:
The Elder Scrolls - Skyrim Official Soundtrack
Ambient Archives Vol. 1
Echogarden Compilation Volume 2
Takuya Morita - Moonlit Lake
Spiral Dub - Perception
I base the above not on them being famous names or anything, but on these releases containing tracks that I literally listen to on repeat, like, forever, and have done so for years (CD’s that never leave the car etc)
Sisters Of Mercy — Floodland
Cassandra Complex — Theomania
Etnica – Live In Athens 1996
Pleiadians — Alpha Draco (Live Edition)
AC/DC — Live at Paradise Theater, Boston, USA 21-08-1978

All I can think is that if I pick my 5 favourite albums, then within 3 months I’ll be kinda bored of them and trying to write symphonies with coconut shells…

Defining album for me, so that’s one.
I’ll make that my theme: albums that had a big impact when I heard them for the first time. And that are still on rotation in my playlists.
Machinedrum - Rooms
Burial - Untrue
The Smiths - Meat is Murder
Ride - Going blank again
