[IIL] I've watched Prison Break, Ozark, Breaking bad & BCS, Dexter, Money heist, and what next?

Simply curious if anyone has recommendations based on these shows. These are some of my favorite shows. There are more, but I like these styles of shows the best. For example, Prison Break is one of my top 3 because of the fact that there is hardly any filler. There is always something going on thats keeping you excited to see what happens. I love Ozark, because of the complex plot and characters, as well as how haunting some of the scenes can be.

I just spent 45 minutes scrolling Netflix and still haven't picked anything. So, please decide for me if you've got any ideas.

IIL Explosive Outros (ex. Only in Dreams by Weezer)

So, last year I made a playlist of songs that have want I would consider an explosive outros. Song that maintains certain rhythm the majority of the song but ends on a total high note, i.e. distorted guitars, faster drums, screaming. But not limited to those, just an overall explosive ending to the song that contrasts to the rest of the song. Anyhow, I'm trying to expand the list. Here are some songs I have on there to see if you guys can help me out with more.

Think Fast by Dominic Fink Azul by Little Jesus Worlds Apart by Wallows Exit Music by Radiohead The Only Moment We Were Alone by Explosions in the Sky Night Shift by Lucy Dacus

IIL Alessi Brothers, what else would i like?

Been on a big yacht rock/70s pop kick recently and the first Alessi Brothers record specifically ive fallen in love with.

Looking for other artists, preferably 70s, who might help me fill this same void.

Just like the warm, studio feel to a lot of their records

[IIL] The Dark by Whipped Cream what else would I like

I really like the dark operatic vocals and the drawn out distorted bass that the drop of this song has. also really like the overlap of a distorted guitar with the synthesized bass

[IIL] This Is Hardcore by Pulp, WEWIL?

so for a while i have loved the song 'this is hardcore' by pulp, but i cannot find any songs actually like. what i like about this song is the grandness of it added the almost sleazy lyricism and delivery by Jarvis cocker, alongside the almost menace of it. when iv'e looked for similar songs, the universal by blur has come up but that is quite the opposite of what i'm looking for, so.. what other songs would i like?

IIL: shows for my husband and me

Hi everyone! Looking for shows for my husband and me to watch together. We just finished Only Murders and are sad that another show we love together is over for now!

We enjoy: Derry Girls Sherlock Only Murders The Morning Show The Crown Seinfeld

I hate true crime, and he loves it. I love dumb reality shows, and he does not enjoy those. We enjoy smart comedy and well-crafted drama. We don’t like super graphic anything, so no GoT or similar.

TIA!!

[IIL] The song Hush by Everglow because of the use of overlaying vocals, [WEWIL?]

Hi everyone!

IIL these songs:

  • Hush by Everglow
  • Gravity by Fifty Fifty
  • Good Day by Weeekly
  • Lovin' me by Fifty Fifty
  • Shine With Me by Ive
  • One Last Time by Girls Generation
  • The Cure by SMTown
  • Our Page by Shinee
  • Into the I-Land by I-Land

WEWIL? I am pretty sure I love all these songs mainly because of the use of overlaying multiple vocals, as well as them being lowkey 'emotional' without it actually being a full ballad (I'm not into slow songs).

[IIL] NEED TO KNOW THIS EXPEDITIOUSLY - Songs like “Multitudes of Mystery” by Jordana [WEWIL]

Looking to make this into a playlist - songs that resemble adolescent shenanigans and hooliganism, while simultaneously being bubbly, chill bops

IIL Youtube videos that discuss scientific studies on health, productivity, psychology etc

Physionic is a good example.
Andrew Huberman is up my street as well

Jeff Nippard is like the Gold Standard but he only does bodybuilding videos. I'm not too interested in gym stuff unless it's linking to the health/psychological benefits. I.e don't want to watch videos about building muscle but will watch about what exercises boost cognition/health.

I'm looking more for someone who discusses individual topics in each video much like Physionic does.

Looking for more obscure recs, not the usual suspects like Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Cocteau Twins, Spellling etc.

[iil] Does anyone have recommendations for songs, albums, or artists that sound like they’d be from Coldplay's Viva la vida or death and all his friends album?

And when I write this I mean songs that follow historical themes and cultural sounds. Because the viva la vida era did it so well because the songs sound like a modernized version from songs in that time period of the 1800’s/French Revolution as well as other cultural backgrounds from Asia, tribal music, Afro pop, classical music, and sailing explorers from that time period?

It’s hard to explain it but I would love to know if there are any other artists or songs that have attempted this and have actually done it justice?

[Iil] Hilda, Gravity Falls, Infinity Train [wewil]

Our connecting theme is kid or teen going on adventures exploring an urban fantasy setting with some kind of central story, where rhe magical elements are either secret or not well known.

I think The Owl House and Amphibia fit, but I haven't watched them yet.

I put TV as the flair, but movies or whatnot is also fine.

[IIL] Geordie Greep - The New Sound [WEWIL]?

This album is perhaps my favourite so far for the year. I really enjoyed his use of different instruments and the type of sound overall. His voice is fantastic and it's very dynamic. The production and sound of the album is incredible.

[IIL] "Pohoda" by Kabát, [WEWIL?]

I have absolutely no clue what they're singing, but the Czech language and Rock fits perfectly together!

The music video also perfectly shows the vibes of that song. Driving through the country at sunset, smoking a cigarette. Perfect!

iil Suggestion of songs with an 80s, 90s vibe, however launched in recent years

Just as in the case of: Phantom Youth - 1999 song released in 2023 but the melody and sound are reminiscent of songs from the 80s, 90s

[iil] House music with real bass guitar-basslines

House music with funky bass guitar? Heya, I'm looking for some house music in this sorta style: -> money - tenendo (any other songs like this is EXACTLY what I’m looking for) -> holiday on ice/Santa claus - Le knight club / around the world daft punk (not actual bass guitar but pretty close) -> Club soda - Thomas bangalter

Since I really love solid basslines, like those in jamiroquai songs (love foolosophy, you give me something).

Thanks!

IIL White Flag, Pavane/Paparazzi, Certamente

Soft, mellow songs that can evoke emotion. I know this is kind of subjective and I know Paparazzi isn’t very mellow but Barbra’s vocals are so good.

Some other songs that fit this for me: Miami Ultras - Yung Lean, Philip Glass - Helen’s Theme and Knee 5, Mazzy Star - Fade into You and Into Dust, Where Is My Mind
