Music Monday (feel free to add your own music)
Every Monday I intend to post a music video (and a few words explaining my choice) I invite you to join me by doing same in the comments section below. As the forum (hopefully) grows my aim is that we begin to inspire our fellow Steemians to broaden their musical horizons by listening to the music that inspires us. The only thing I ask is that (where possible) every song we listen to is played nice and loudly on headphones or speakers in order that we capture its true essence.
As more Steemians join this venture there is also going to be the possibility of being rewarded for our musical tastes via the amount of upvotes each song receives. That said please never feel awkward about posting a track, a guilty pleasure or even your own musical ventures. I have an extremely wide range of musical interests but also understand that music like beauty is very much in the eye of the beholder. As such I may play my chosen song, but who am I to define what constitutes good music.
I like the idea and i'll start with my friend's music to support is experimental acid techno endeavours!
Hey @amigareaction .. thanks for stopping by, back in the day I used to DJ a bit of acid techno .. so this is a very welcome blast from the past, although it's also new ..it holds that authentic old school sound. Tell your mate to keep it up, he's onto something! :) Thank you for the music my friend, enjoyed listening to this one!
Yes! We both grow up in the 90' with that oldschhol Acid flavour but i guess more on the hardcore acid side :) Same guy under a different alias:

A bit of early punk for you from a brilliant album 'The Feeding of the 5000'
Hey my friend hope you've been keeping well? Great track! Loving the raw energy on this one .. really captures the true essence of this era, ha I remember how worried all the politicians were about punk. lol Love the way he spits out the words .. thank you for the music @deirdyweirdy .. great choice this week!!
hey my friend, i hope you are well and been managing to keep cool.
here's my offering for today, Zack de la Rocha, hoping to hear more from him xx
Hey @trucklife-family .. its been pretty hot, but the weather has now broken .. on/off rain for the next few days. Another great choice! .. I reckon he will come back with a full album sometime, maybe out of the blue .. stir it up a bit :) I Guess we shall see. Loving the heavy and pounding basslines as well, def still got it! Thanks for the music my friend .. really enjoyed this one! :)
Ah hell yah! The summer has been playing fun havoc with my schedule and I have missed a couple music mondays but I still love em.
I have had this song running through my head a couple hours. Cool keyboards, time changes, and awesome old man harmonies bring me back.
Hope you are doing great man!
Hey my friend, sorry this one must have come in after my much needed bedtime! :) What a brilliant choice though, love the band .. such great musicians, and I was only listening to Cripple Creek a few days back and The last Waltz is a great gig video/documentary. I can relate on the schedule front .. I often help out with festivals and events at this time of year, so I'm normally rushing back to get #musicmonday listed! lol Thanks again for the music my friend .. a musical masterclass and a pleasure to listen to. :)
Greetings dear friend @perceptualflaws.
Although I do not usually comment on music publications, I found your proposal great and would like to participate.
I am fascinated by the eccentricity of this video and the fusion of its raw and techno sounds.
ps.
Since you seem to have some decent knowledge and experience, would you mind if I ask you to share your own opinion on my latest publication:
"DID OUR "WORLD LEADERS" JUST PUSH GLOBAL RECESSION AWAY from our doorsteps?"

I would appreciate it greately.
Yours

Thank you @crypto.piotr Hope you've been well my friend? yeah, it's a really interesting track .. a fusion of raw and techno sounds, but equally a fusion of the similarities between our transient cycles of time and indeed the cyclical nature of fascism. Very interesting, thank you for sharing. I will be sure to take a look at your article, it's certainly an interesting subject matter .. and one way or the other we're going to find out! Again thanks for the music, I enjoyed this one!
July proved to be a challenging month so I thought I'd enter into Aug with a few of those songs that get out feet tapping and put a smooth swivel on the hips.
Earth, Wind and Fire: That's The Way Of The World
Eric Claptop: Lay Down Sally
Prince: Kiss
Elton John: Honky Cat
Stevie Wonder: Superstition
Billy Ocean: Caribbean Queen
Otis Redding: Sittin On The Dock Of The Bay
Thank you @sunlit .. A great selection of music here .. and finishing it off with a bit of Ottis Reading .. heaven! One of those tracks that can take you away, to be at one with the moment and the image that he creates. Lucky enough to catch Stevie Wonder live a few years back .. and this track always brings back the feeling and energy of the moment .. classic! Hope the challenges of July reveal the triumphs of August and that you have a great month coming up. Thank you for the music @sunlit .. these were a listening pleasure! :)
Came here to place this on record and you beat me to it! Thank you for getting here ;)
Man that was awesome .. how do I give an explanation of that! lol It simply is, difficult to categorise and define and all the better for it! That guy has some serious equipment .. it's like being in Doc Brown's living room! lol Certainly wasn't expecting the lyrics either .. you never know where it's going to go next and I love that! At first I thought it might be the same guy as in the video above .. but don't think it is. Thank you for the music .. loved this one, def going in for a second listen! lol
He is pretty cool! Same guy!
Ha didn't realise it was! Some friends of friends know this guy really well .. small world! :)
Ok that is beyond cool! I am so rarely impressed in the way that I am about his videos! Now I need to go to England :)
Enjoy
Sorry I couldn't resist this one, once I thought of it. Flaws, your guy in the video looks anything BUT chilled, though music surely is. Feeling to me as if everything is speeding up faster and faster now - you get that too?
A little Love and Affection is needed everywhere right now
Hey @ricia .. hope you've been well my friend? Sorry for the late ears on this but I haven't been around v much this weekend. What a couple of great tracks though! The Joker has to be one of my all time favourites and the Joan Armatrading track is simply beautiful ..music from an era that seems both close and equally a million miles away. I'm certainly with you on the speeding up front .. and I have a few of my own theories on that. ;) Really nice to hear from you .. should have a post out this week! Thank you for the music .. these were a listening pleasure! :)
Great to hear you any time. I will look out for your post. Life is fine for me right now so no complaints. Enjoyed your Devon post too, lovely scenery. Stay well and keep up your happy positive attitude as it is our best protection. Best ~~~~~~
