Can someone refer me to some noir-esque jazz? As in, the jazz that you'd expect to hear in a dark bar in the 1920s-40s in the winter.

Things like Charles Mingus, I mean.

Xploding Plastix sounds like jazz straight out of an old film noir, but has little bits of electronic bits in it.

Great stuff. Got a Flying Lotus vibe, I reckon, but with more jazz and less space.

We have lots of great jazz bands here in Norway. So we're not just good at black metal. :v:

I'm baffled, Charles Mingus is like the least Noir Jazz I've ever heard. it's like the soundtrack to finding jesus.

Well, I dunno, he's one of the things I'd think of when I picture a smokey bar with a band on stage.
I dont know if this is the right spot to ask this, but whats that newer song
That has ALOT of distortion in the guys voice, and almost sounds like an electric piano or violin
going
"dododododododododeee" and then it drops and he says "SAY HEY" or something.
Its stuck in my fucking head and I need to hear it before it kills me
I think it was the show house too. I dont fucking know

well. some of his songs at least. I'm more familiar with stuff like this [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-R11B7EGt0[/url]
but anyway more helpful post:
Bohren und der Club of Gore (not the greatest from a jazz point of view but it has so much heavy atmosphere)
Miles Davis - Ascenseur pour l'échafaud (a soundtrack to a noir film)
Miles Davis - Round About Midnight
Chet Baker
Wayne Shorter
and um just listen to lots and lots of davis. it's good for you.
Been listening to the soundtracks for Mass effect and the new tron, any suggestions for something with that similar spacey feel?

I know Faunts did the credits track, so you could check them out.

[QUOTE=Villein;32913770]Some good hardcore punk bands?[/QUOTE]I see you've been listening to Modern Life is War, if you like them check out Defeater, More Than Life, and Some Mistakes.

Thank you!
[QUOTE=Villein;32914259]Thank you![/QUOTE]Check out Verse too, and that's enough to last you a while. Never hurts to check out some older stuff too though.

Listen to Black Flag. They're the father of hardcore punk.
[QUOTE=Villein;32913770]Some good hardcore punk bands?[/QUOTE]
Black Flag
Minor Threat
7 Seconds
Youth Brigade
MDC
Something like the background music in the game Defcon: Everybody Dies. That mysterious sic-fi spooky/horror genre.

Nope, never heard anything like it until M83, I'll do some googling and check it out, thanks.
it's been discussed here a number of times if you want to travel back.
basically whatever you do, listen to the album Loveless by My Bloody Valentine, it's basically eternally the high water mark of the genre
Rec me something that I would like that isn't Sufjan Stevens, I've been obsessively listening to him lately and I need something else.
