Minha mãe trabalha pra uma senhora de mais de 90 anos, o marido dela faleceu e eles iam jogar fora algumas coisas dele. Ela viu esse relógio e trouxe pra mim. É meu primeiro relógio automático. Pra falar a verdade, é meu primeiro relógio kkkk.
Pelo que entendi, se trata de um Seiko do final da década de 60 ou início de 70.
Seiko 5 / Calibre 6119 - 6000 / SGP / St Steel
P.S.: Tá funcionando perfeitamente.
I made this playlist on Spotify around a very specific kind of folk song: mostly 60s/70s acoustic material, singer-songwriter records, and a few obscure or half-forgotten recordings that feel like they belong in the same small room.
The thread is not just “sad folk.” It’s more private than that. Songs with a late-night stillness to them, where the arrangement leaves a lot of air around the voice. Guitar, restraint, loneliness, memory, and that feeling of someone trying to say one true thing without dressing it up too much.
There’s Leonard Cohen, Nick Drake, Sandy Denny, Jackson C. Frank, Townes Van Zandt, Bert Jansch, Vashti Bunyan, Tim Buckley, John Martyn, Blaze Foley, Gene Clark, Sibylle Baier, and others in that orbit.
It isn’t meant as a definitive folk canon. It’s a personal collection of quiet, lyrical, mostly acoustic songs that feel fragile without being sentimental.
I’d love to hear recommendations that fit this same atmosphere, especially older folk, singer-songwriter records, private press, loner folk, or overlooked acoustic songs.

Looking for obscure 60s/70s folk that’s mostly just voice and guitar
I’ve been making a playlist of folk deep cuts from the 60s and 70s, mostly on the loner/private press side.
The kind of thing I’m trying to find more of is Sibylle Baier, Dave Bixby, Jackson C. Frank, Gary Higgins, Ted Lucas, Simon Finn, Michael Chapman, Bert Jansch, Rogér Fakhr — quiet, stripped-down, a little strange, not too polished.
Would love recommendations for specific tracks or records that fit.
I just finished watching the first season of Samurai Jack for the first time, and honestly, I was not expecting the production to be this good.
What surprised me the most is how incredibly well the show has aged. There is a rare kind of visual confidence in it: entire episodes with very little dialogue, cinematic framing, silhouettes, flat colors, silence, rhythm, pauses. At times, it feels less like a regular action cartoon and more like a moving storyboard for an art film.
One of the things I admire most is that the show understands when not to explain things. Jack walking into an empty landscape, the sound design shifting, the camera holding on a shot just a little longer than expected — it creates a kind of tension that many lore-heavy shows never manage to achieve.
The art direction is also insane. Every episode can feel like a completely different movie. There are influences from Japanese chambara films, westerns, science fiction, noir, European comics, mythology, and yet it all still feels unmistakably like Samurai Jack. Genndy Tartakovsky was really operating on another level here.
I also love how the series balances simplicity with emotional weight. The premise is almost just one sentence: “a samurai is thrown into the future and tries to return to the past.” But from that simple idea, the show manages to explore loneliness, honor, exile, patience, failure, and hope.
It is minimalist, but never shallow. I really did not expect to be this impressed.
Been putting together a playlist of softer / darker psychedelic folk-rock, baroque psych and late-60s obscurities — stuff like Linda Perhacs, Kaleidoscope, The Incredible String Band, Ultimate Spinach, Forest, Trees, Gandalf, Mark Fry, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, etc.
The mood I’m chasing is: foggy gardens, faded tape, sitars in the next room, and songs that sound like they were found in someone’s attic.
Would love recommendations in this lane — especially more overlooked UK psych-folk, acid folk, and melancholic sunshine psych.
