Cold day for a dip in Lake Superior, but a cuppa coffee and a little jazz from that group's Tunnel Six album revived me after a morning of pretty tedious chores. This track is "Tunnel Mountain."

Listening to The Tractors in memory of Steve Ripley, their leader who just passed away. He was a real talent, on the stage or behind the scenes.

 
A tune from the Stranger Things Soundtrack
I never was a fan of synth heavy music, but this tune sounds so 80s nostalgic and cool.

Today I wanted something more symphonic, operatic, but still hard and heavy, in which in most places, especially in the US, you won't find either of those put together. Thankfully Finland came through for me, with Nightwish.

Right now, I'm listening to Ghost Love Score.

 
Reminds me a bit of some of the (later) offerings of the somewhat reclusive Scottish band Boards of Canada, probably because they have used a lot of vintage synths...

Oh, gosh: Once, a few years ago, at home on leave from a crazy place, I asked an excellent music store for recommendations for something interesting (and mostly instrumental).

And they came up with Boards of Canada, which, of course, as a result, I bought from them, and, yes, must admit that I loved.....

Excellent track; I got it over a year ago and felt really cool riding my bike while listening to it. Related: if you ever want to hear what lightsabers would sound like if they could cry:

 
For me: Melancholic and epic Irish music is what my heart, and soul and mind calls for tonight:

Lake of Shadows, Moving Hearts.

The Irish Marche - Planxty - Words And Music.

Barry Adamson- The Big Bamboozle
I’m a novice, at best, with jazz. But this one really caught my ear. It just sounds so “lust-y” and so “James Bond”.

Eagerly waiting for a link to a track! :)

Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children (debut studio album, 1998)

If you go to that YouTube link and hit the "..more..." on the top post, they listed the track names with live links to the tracks in this thing.
