Do you think you can do better than 'living room' for a location? Your URL is .uk so that's fairly obvious, but it would be nice to get past 'planet Earth' or whatever, as your location. Not that it matters, but its nice to know.

 

how about you fellas.... what you into.
Why can't I resist a response to this topic?

 

OK: White Stripes, Weezer, RadioHead; always Ramones, Clash and Elvis Costello; RadioHead and without question RadioHead.

Here is a previous thread about this...

nisus listens most of the time to classical music now: Beethoven, Bach, Schubert, Puccini, Ravel, Debussy, Moussorgsky, Stravinsky, Mendelsshon, Chopin, Dvorak, Mahler, Vivaldi, Grieg, Pergolesi, Bramhs, Schumann, Monteverdi, Scarlatti, Haydn, Mozart, Shostakovitch, Saent-Saens, Holst, Rachmaninov, Liszt, Telemann, Pärt, Satoh, Verdi, Haendel etc. etc.

(this lad got a tremendous collection of many complete versions symphonies, chamber music etc. of over 500cds...)

 

The other part of my collection (yet another 1200cds or more - yes all legally bought, no piracy - contains: lots of Klaus Schulze, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Ozric Tentacles, Vidna Obmana, Jorge Reyes, Steve Roach, The Doors (many bootlegs), Alan Parsons Project, Fax (label), Silent Records (Label), Enigma, Kitaro, Zoviet France, Aube, Tomas Köner, Tangerine Dream, The Hybrids, Em:t/Time (label), Michael Hoenig, Herbi Hancock, Sonny Boy Williamson, Dave Brubeck, Boudewijn De Groot, Yes, Hawkwind, Boogie Woogie (style),...

I'm sorry, I didn't get all that. Could you repeat that list for us?

 

 

Well, I did leave out the Beatles, the soundtrack to my life. I have sucessfully taught my young son to see right through all the pop crap most kids like and to appreciate the Beatles. He likes everything, but when he chooses the CD its Beatles he reaches for. Good boy!

Music, well I’m all over the board;

 

Right now I’m streaming music over the Internet from Radio Free Virgin. The Café Ibiza CD is playing “Life in the Rain” by Quantic

 

it’s in the same vein as Hed Kandi Vol. 3-Serve Chilled CD # 2

 

Radio Zumbido was a good buy, and Amon Tobin is good for a mind trip.

 

St Germain’s “Tourist” is what got me into the whole remixed Jazz stuff, and is still a good listen today.

 

And you can’t beat the old jazz greats like Miles Davis, Dizzy, Coltrane, etc

 

For a change of pace I’ll throw in some Johnny Cash, classical music or James Brown. :winkgrin:

Wow, I forgot about these two.

 

Queensryche Operation:Mindcrime, one of the best concerts I have ever seen.

 

Dr. X: "Kill her. That's all you have to do."

Nikki: "Kill Mary?"

Dr. X: "She's a risk, and get the priest as well."

And Suicidal Tendencies opened for them. Hence, how I was eventually exposed to Infectious Grooves in my younger days :D

I mostly go for Tom Waits, Cesara Evora, Bob Dylan, Tuvan throat singing (Hun Hur Tu etc..) Peter Gabriel, Springsteen. Some times I get out the Parlament and scare the cats. Sometimes I get out the Pogues or the Beasty Boys, maybe Beck. I love working at home (when I get to) so I dont have to listen to commercial radio.

And of course the stack of Disney songs and musicals that comes with being the father of a music loving 2 year old. My daughter (Alethea) loves anything we put in front of her. She ask for Tom Waits and even sings along. Great feeling, sharing stuff you care about with others you care about.

I keep trying to talk to my baby about uvw mapping coordinates and ffd lattices but she just gives me the same blank looks that everyone else does.

Hmm.. well, I guess Im one of the younger kids here that just escaped the 70's... most of the music I listen to while on the PC is trance/dance music. Various mixes by DJ's such as Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, Digweed, DJ Rap, Deep Dish, Dirty Vegas, Seb Fontaine, Underworld, Danny Tenaglia, Moby,....

 

and for those bad days, Eminem, Limp Bizkit etc. Anyone hear the song from the X-cutioners cd called "Who wants to be a mo fo millionaire?" Its one of the funniest songs Ive heard.

 

I also listening to a bunch of classical stuff that my wife plays, aswell as some Norah Jones, Mariah Carey etc....

 

BUT, I've also been to a few Ozzy and AC/DC concerts... and listen to some Joe Satriani and Steve Vai aswell.... just all depends on what mood Im in.

So you hear the resampled 60's and 70's music (speaking of copyright eek2.gif ) :ebiggrin:

I can listen to pretty much everything except for Country, Happy Hardcore, Top 40, and 80's glam metal.

 

I grew up on stuff like Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Dead Kennedys, Clouds, Bikini Kill, Huggy Bear, etc...I'm really feeling Placebo and Queens of the Stonage at the moment.

 

Appart from the indie/lo-fi stuff I mostly listen to hiphop (no commercial or dirtysouth stuff tho), drum n bass, and instrumental jazz (~1957-1980)
