Yes, I've migrated (duplicated) from reddit.

  1. Have fun
  2. When you post new songs, make sure to sort the posts by "new"
  3. Any excuse works for the connection between the songs (see examples below) but put your reasoning in the post body
  4. Wait a couple of hours after posting before you post again if no one posts after you
  5. Be polite and excellent to each other!
  6. Songs in any language is welcome, but make sure you add explanation in English

Help needed (self.connectasong)
submitted 2 years ago by a_new_sad_me to c/connectasong
 
 

As expected, me, as a single mod, requires some help. I'll keep this post pinned and update it when needed. At the moment, what the community needs (except for more active users) is:

  1. Another mod, even if there is not a lot of work to do, I'd still be happy if we can have redundancy.
  2. Design for the community logo and banner.
  3. A bot to update the sidebar - this is something I can do myself, only it will take me sometime to get there.

Clouds. Early 90s my friend had a couple of 3Lux videotapes, one of them "A journey through ambience". It has a similar visual style as the Little Fluffy Clouds video (and ambient music of course). The Orb was on that tape as well, different track though. 3Lux-3 on shrooms...good memories.

Kate Bush - Cloudbusting (www.youtube.com)
submitted 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) by [email protected] to c/connectasong
 
 

The drummer on the previous song, Stuart Elliot, would go on to be one of Bush's preferred drummers and played on this track. Besides this one he drummed on "Running Up That Hill", "Wuthering Heights" and most of her other singles too.

He also played on a number of other well-known 80s songs: Paul McCartney's "No More Lonely Nights", Alan Parsons Project's "Eye in the Sky", and...uh...Kenny Rogers' "Morning Desire". I guess you can't win them all.

In the 1970s and 80s the inhabitants of Chelsea in London were called Sloane Rangers -- a UK equivalent of "preppy".
