  2. #TuneTuesday #WhatWasThat

    This week I'm cheating a little and sharing a whole album. JoMo Slavumas features two groups of musicians: one rock and roll band and one Eastern European folk group. The overall effect is supposed to give the idea of an alternate history where rock and roll developed in Eastern Europe out of their traditional music. I'm not sure how well the effect actually works, but it's a good album all the same!

    @Foritus @dusepo you'll probably enjoy this if you don't know it already!

  3. Sixteen years ago, Kutiman composed the Mother of All Funk chords by sampling various YouTube clips

  5. Loving the theme of this weeks #TuneTuesday , have been amazed by a variety of songs and videos 😃

    I'm going to join @lpl and @Kitty and share something #Nordic .

    #WhatWasThat spoiler alert: it's hurdy gurdies. Plural.
    In 2005 two band members from #Garmarna and #Hedningarna released the album 'Prototyp' which consists of music made with solely hurdy gurdies. Albeit sampled for the percussion and soundscapes.

  8. #TuneTuesday #WhatWasThat - A song that contains an unusual instrument, vocal or clash of genres.

    I'm going with instruments you don't usually here in a jazz group. How about Arthur Blythe's group with cello and tuba? I believe it's James Blood Ulmer on guitar as well.

  9. Today, songs containing unusual instrument, vocal, or clash of genres.

    Here's a taste of a "found objects" band that's been part of the Twin Cities music scene for decades, they even have a star at First Avenue.

  10. Someone posted about trusting Doctor Steel more than RFK (amen), so I've had this earworm since then.

    When I first saw this MGM cartoon style gone slightly evil video way back when, I thought it was Mike Patton singing. 😅

    Anyway, I think the song is a nice fit for this week's #TuneTuesday theme of #WhatWasThat, from the old film projector sounds to the whistle thing at the end.

    Back and Forth - Doctor Steel

  11. So "What Was That" is the theme for Tune Tuesday and how can I not go with a song from Shpongle? This song starts out kinda chill with flute and concertina and then midway through it switches into a high energy salsa dance party with Indian (I think) singing, because why not?

  12. #TuneTuesday this week is #WhatWasThat - unusual songs, a break from the norm. Songs with unusual instruments, vocals, a clash of genres, etc.

    I will go for the clash of genre with this osng from Broken By The Scream.

    How many musical genre can you hear?

    "For the love of all things unusual, a #TuneTuesday theme that celebrates a musical break from the norm.

    #WhatWasThat by @EisenTukan invites you to share a song that contains an unusual instrument, vocal or clash of genres 🎶

    Thank you for joining in ☺️"

    If there's 1 band, who likes to play unusual instruments, then it's #DeadCanDance probably.

    The percussive instrument being played by #LisaGerrard is the #yangqin, a Chinese hammered dulcimer.🌠

  15. "Volume Two: Thank You For Your Patience" is one of my recent favorite albums. Milwaukee's the Beat Index clearly had a blast making "an album of on-hold music for automated phone systems." You really need to listen to the whole album - it's sonically on point, damn catchy, and brutally funny (the endlessly repeating tri-tone at the end of the full album "Telesthesia Mix" makes me wanna cry every time).

  16. Tune Tuesday theme is What Was That.

    Weird Al came to mind with his polka versions of popular songs.

    So here is Weird Al "Polkamania"

  17. So, Tune Tuesday's theme is "What Was That" - a song that contains unusual vocal, instrument, genre, or other elements.

    Oh, I've got one for you...

  18. Fishbone plays Fishbone music, a little funk, lotta ska, and some reggae tossed in for good measure, then you throw in a theremin that is perfect for #TuneTuesday #WhatWasThat

    Fishbone - Behind Closed Doors

  19. So the #tunetuesday theme is #whatwasthat? Well, there’s only one choice for me: the Battle with Wendy theme from #PaperMario Color Splash!

    youtube.com/watch?v=ZI4zBMGqKu0

    I don’t know how you make an epic boss theme with bagpipes and what sounds like Santa Claus chanting in the background, but it somehow works here.

  20. This time TuneTuesday is about unusual / out of the norm tracks that make you wonder ...

    (not so surprising in the beginning but wait for it .....)

  22. Happy #TuneTuesday! This week's theme is #WhatWasThat.

    So, I was thinking about Kpop songs that include unusual instruments or have big switches in form or style, but then I remembered this art-piece from SK label Beautiful Noise.

    It includes music from my beloved Sion, along with Zior Park, Wonstein, Kim Seungmin, Chanju and Mommyson, and it's a whole, strange adventure. Let's not phase out sleep, ok, humans!

  23. #TuneTuesday is upon us and @EisenTukan was wondering #WhatWasThat song with the unusual instrument or the weird mash up of genres?
    In this case you can have both courtesy of

  24. This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #WhatWasThat : a song that contains an unusual instrument, vocal or clash of genres 🎶

    This hashtag was basically made for Igorrr, so here's their recent track, Blastbeat Falafel
    igorrr.bandcamp.com/track/blas

    We don't get to see the instrument at 00:08 in the video (click through to watch) for very long, and I am actually having trouble making a firm identification. Is it a form of sitar?

  25. This #TuneTuesday category is one of my personal favorites - #WhatWasThat . Songs with unusual instruments in it. Now, I could have bombarded you with noise artists or industrial bands who bang on metal or synethsize machine noises( they do exist and I do have them), or just hit you with stuff from Mr. Bungle or Lauren Bousfield (oh, I love you so), but I tried to be a little better. This track from Fantomas does have a couple of different instruments in it, but may I argue that Mike Patton's voice is the strangest one? Here's there cover to the theme of The Godfather. youtu.be/gezIWoeXeM0?feature=s
