Have you ever heard Morphine? VERY similar styles going on here:

This is pretty far from the Godspeed-type bands, but it's all I want to listen to lately:

 

Rich Homie Quan - Type of Way

 

[Pol]

[tingdeh]

Exogenesis Symphony by Muse. All three parts, without interruption.

I once tried studying to it but found myself immersed for fifteen minutes. It is a beautiful piece of music!

Thanks to lhommependu for this one.

Andrew Bird is a Time Lord come to save us from ourselves with his music.

Andrew Bird is amazing. Noble Beast is hell of an album. 

 

[guineu]

Awesome band from Montreal, their new album is coming out in February.

 

Thanks for the recommendation. It's been a while since I followed the Québec scene at all and I really ought to start again.

 

This video never fails to make me smile:

 

Antònia Font - “Wa yeah!”

 

Three more upbeat songs in Catalan:

Blaumut -- "Pa amb oli i sal"

Anna Roig i l'Ombre de Ton Chien -- "Je t'aime"

Manel -- "Ai, Dolors"

Thanks for the recommendation. It's been a while since I followed the Québec scene at all and I really ought to start again.

You must check this out! This is Ibrahim Maalouf, a trumpet player fusing Arabic music and Jazz. I began listening to his music during the applications and his new album ("Illusions") just came out, which is also pretty good.

Pressure Drop by Toots and the Maytals is a great de-stressed for me!

Halcyon + On + On by Orbital has been my go-to de-stress/celebrate/mourn/etc. song for over 15 years.
