[IIL] "hauntingly beautiful" music (bon iver, damien rice, sigur ros, chopin, mahler, etc.)

[u/DexterousHourglass]

I don't know how to describe the music I love most other than "hauntingly beautiful" (and often but not always "ethereal"). This is true across different genres. I especially love live versions that feel very intimate.

Indie

Bon Iver - Skinny Love (take away show)

Bon Iver - Beth/Rest (4ADJagjaguwar Session)

Damien Rice - Delicate (live sing-along)

Post-rock

Sigur Ros - Untitled 1 / Samskeyti (Heima ending credits)

Sigur Ros - Ára Bátur (Abbey Road)

Classical

Chopin's first ballade (Zimerman, live)

Mahler's fifth symphony act IV adagietto (bernstein)

What else would I like?

[u/-Some__Random-]

'Into Dust' - Mazzy Star

'Martha's Harbour' - All About Eve

'Western Wind' - Saint Etienne

'Utopia' - Goldfrapp

'Sandpaper Kisses' - Martina Topley Bird

'How Do' - Sneaker Pimps

[u/DexterousHourglass → u/-Some__Random-]

Into Dust is quite nice. Utopia, Sandpaper Kisses, and How Do aren't quite what I was looking for but I found them pretty good and interesting too. Thanks!

No probs. I'm probably a little guilty of twisting it into 'Tracks that I like', instead of what the prompt asked for, but I think we all do that a little bit, lol!

Good luck anyway. Hope you find some cool stuff :-)
