nice list I am definitely looking to get into more classical works. Quatour Pour La Fin Du Temps is amazing, about the only reference point I have to that stuff. and I'm your first friend hooray :)

I haven't listened to Music For 18 Musicians in like 4 years (8th grade) but I'll try to get it and I'll check out Ives as well

Cold is so disappointing

Rata is the jam though

Oh, thank you very much. It's really nice that you appreciate it even though we have opinions considerably distinct about the record.

the new Freddie Gibbs is positively slammin. I don't know if you've seen my 2013 list but i try to keep it pretty updated. transmuteo rules too

Hey I've been reading your thread about James Ferraro and stuff on SA

Good shit, it's really got me thinking about the conceptual ideas behind Oneohtrix and the whole vaporwave thing in a way that's lead me to appreciating the music even more

Hey:) I've just published a similar list like your "Transcendent & cosmic Classical recordings" (though mine is not limited to classical music) and I've realized that I accidentally used the same cover image like you. I was searching for another one, but "Empyrean" fits so perfectly. I hope that's ok with you;) By the way your list looks very interesting, I will definitly check out some of the records...
