Preserved Topic: Speaking of mp3s (Page 1 of 2)

By the way, what kind of music you guys, most of you being power programmers or power Photoshop users or power something, like?
Has this been asked here in the past? I was lazy to make a search.

*hhmmm don't remember a topic about music, but I can?t remember last week so....*

Viol: What do you listen to? You started it so you answer as well !!!

Well I'm a photoshop nutter (I think, just wait the RP this week form me and you'll see, hehe) I listen to mostly:

Trance (all types of it, psy, goa, hard, etc)
House (all types too, but I love all the old house like back in 1996/7 (get some fantasia Club classics CD and have a listen) &
Some rock 'n' roll and some oldies tunes too, cus you have to love the good and old classics don?t you.

That's my fav type of music but I love all kinds of music if it's good !

My taste of music is from the 70s, 80s. I seem to not be able to grow up and like the newer musics
- Genesis, Queen, Dire Straits (lately Mark Knopfler)
- Sting, Phil Collins, U2 (the older albums and the last one)
- Eros Ramazzotti and Claudio Baglioni mostly for italian music
- Zeze di Camargo & Luciano, for Brazilian music (they are a double, country singers)
- Willie Nelson (although a recent addiction, since 2000, it's now a very strong one - this guy is the best)
- Cirque du Soleil titles - I love them
- Some Spanish singers like Gloria Estefan, singing in Spanish please
- some others I can't remember right now like movie soundtracks (Don Juan di Marco, Rob Roy, for instance) so on

alternative rock

like red hot chili peppers, incubus, at the drive in, phantom planet, rival schools, the vines, the hives, jimmy eat world

and other bands like

cake, rage against the machine.......

melikethis

I listen to some Trance, Dj Encore, Dirty Vegas, and some Rock... Sevendust, Linkin Park, a little bitta Soad, 3rd Strike, Nickelback, Chad Kroeger. *shrugs*

ac/dc
ozzy
Pantera
Sepultura
Slayer
Nightwish
Children of Bodom

Yikes, I never heard anything from any singer/band mentioned here so far, with the exception of many from Wakkos list and AC/DC, Ozzy and Sepultura that I've heard about but never heard a music from them.
From Wakkos list, I like Barry White, some tunes by Bon Jovi, Guns and Roses, Gypsy Kings, Elton John, some from Metallica, Pink Floyd (specially the other side of the moon), Zucchero (miserere) and even Madonna. Oops, I almost forgot: Ave Maria, from Mozart is a master piece. Finally someone has a musical taste with some similarity to mine.

Mostly Industrial music..

System of a down - VNV Nation - KMFDM

But I get weird at times and I want music to reflect that so I have some odd things in CD my collection.

Gunners, REM, Devin Townsend/Strapping Young Lad, Vangelis, Danny Elfman, everclear, korn, too much 80's stuff, Tom Waits, M&M, Bjork...

Basicaly anything but Country music.

mhmm korn and system of a down.*yummy*

my tastes are pretty ecclectic.

I listen to alot of:

Hip-Hop
Soul
ska
punk
Funk
Celtic
alternative
Metal
latino
Swing
Reggae
Dance Hall

absolutely no Country(unless you count Jimmy Buffet as country music, which I dont)

What's wrong with you people? There is but one answer to be given here: Tenacious D. - The greatest band in the whole wide world

"All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon...in the middle....of the road...and he said...plaaaaaayyyy the best song - in the world, or I'll eat your souls...."


In all seriousness though, I'm down with Massacre's list, gotta love those hives - best music videos the world has seen in a while, and nice to see the Pixies being tossed around. Bless you Black Frances.

Well I dont want to post my playlist because right now in current total there are 4981 songs in my playlist.

A sample would be
Ozzy Osborne
Aesop Rock
Bill Laswell
Buckethead
DJ Shadow
De La Soul
Deceptikonz
Funkadelic
Gang Starr
Herbie Hancock
Ice-T
Skratch Piklz
Killarmy
Miles Davis

I could go on for days

Peace

I listen to just about everything under the sun.

*Trance: Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyke, Timo Mass, Chemical Brothers, Authechre, etc. .
*Rock: Yes, King Crimson, Godspell, TOOL, etc. . .
*Jazz: Miles, Charlie Parker, Joe Henderson, John Scolefield, etc. . .
*Classical: Bach, Varese, Webern, Schoenberg, Xenakis, George Crumb, etc. . .

Right now I have been listening to mostly Trance but depending on my mood, I like to listen to some really wacked out Classical like the ones I listed. When I work on the computer, anything without words is a go. Things with words just distract me.

Does anyone here listen to "Classical" music?

I wouldnt say the Pixies is very "metal" though.

synax: damnit , I forgot about the Deftones You like Iowa ? I just noticed how you bad mouthed limpbizkit's+korn's latest and not Slipknot's. But Issues is great !

Hehehee! *hips like cinderella* heheheee very metal /negative
I don't think that whole songs is metal. Just some bits here and there that could easily be Ac/Dc or Pantera.
I'm thinking of the guitar aspect.

Mkay.... Mr spanky got it *Affirmitive*!

Iowa kicks my ass. I don't know how they did it, but they made an album that was more core than their first. I love the 'knot I don't like the direction Korn and LB headed into - and apparently neither did Borland, so he left. Good for him.

Linkin Park's style and lyrics are both genius yes. Their songs are deep, rythmic, and they rock HARD. Ozzy's "songs" are one dimentional (sp?) and boring. The man can't sing and often can't even remember his own thoughtless lyrics. I would listen to NSync before I would disgrace my ears with his lack of talent. At least the "boy-bands" out there have a handle on tone and pitch.

I am so sick of people hating pop because it is pop. I love rock but there are a ton of rock bands out there that I simply can't stand. Black Sabbath is at the top of that list.

But look, these are just opinions and I won't change your mind and vice-versa. You like Ozzy? Fine, I won't hold it against you, but don't presume to tell me who I can and cannot "knock."

I've learned that "one must not argue about taste, we must argue about good taste".
Actually, music is about feeling and feeling is something extremely personal. You can't find two people with the same musical taste as you can't find two people with the same genes. I guess that even twin brothers should have different musical tastes...
So, people can like any kind of music they want and I won't bother. Just don't listen to them while near me, please I do the same.
But I'm really impressed with how different my musical taste is from most of the people here.

All kinds, from hip-hop to techno to house to rock to soft, even some opera and classical thrown in. Music, in general, is always playing in my room. Always. It's uncomfortable without it.

Without Ozzy your beloved Linkin Park would probably not even exist.

Well, their style is just a remake of all the millions of boy bands out there, so I wouldn't refer to it as "genius". I would refer to it as "a bunch of posers" but as you said, "you got a right to love and hate what you want."

As for using the words "thoughtless, and "lack of talent" to describe Ozzy, I think his 15 albums, his world renowned Ozzfest concerts, and his own TV series speak for themselves.

Anyways, I could argue on and on about how much I hate them, etc, etc... You can like them, that's fine.

PS. No one said anything about hating pop because it's pop. I hate pop because it's all the same. Here's the gist of POP:
"This boy/girl broke my heart so now I have to write/steal a song about it and sing/lip sync while dancing/looking like an idiot and also while I show my tits/ass/rest of my fake body."

Polka!

Bwahahahhahah ha ha ah ha!

That's fine. There's nothing in my aforementioned statements to prove false anyhow.

I wouldn't go as far to say that, mas. I'd listen to Linkin Park over Papa Roach anyday. A bunch of friends and I sat around listening to Papa Roach one day, and we picked out at least 4 songs from one CD where the ripped off riffs or bass/drum beats from some other band. If you were to use the description of "1 dimensional" and "thoughtless lyrics" for a band, I would apply it to them.

As for POD - they have a style all in their own. I wouldn't call them Nu Metal, or metal at all. They're more rock I think. I dunno, I hate trying to classify music into categories. Usually I just classify them into "stuff I like, stuff that's ok, stuff I dislike, stuff I can't stand". That's just me though

you're right synax it was my mistake, sorry
there is no band which copies limp bizkit to 100%

but these bands still have got somthing of lb

edit:
xdreamer: STAIND-->electrical music???????
they should be at the instrumental shouldn't they?

+-new CELL 557-+

[This message has been edited by massacre (edited 08-13-2002).]

synax, honestly you could listen to any band's album and find at least 4 songs with riffs "ripped" from someone else (if not all of them). Not saying p-roach is cool I'm kinda wishy-washy on them myself.



.:[ Never resist a perfect moment ]:.

Actually, as far as the Nu Metal goes, wouldn't Jonathan Davis be kind of the iconic progenitor as opposed to Mr. Fred "Ass-Clown" Durst? I think that it was in Q(or one of those mags that I just can't live without) that they did an interview with Davis and traced his recording history and whatnot. Not stating fact, just a thought. And Linkin park = deep? In my opinion, they boys are a bit manufactured. Very clean, very crisp, their guitarist definitely knows his way around a catchy riff, but as far as anything new to offer the world of heavy metal......if there's something there, I'm not seeing it. I'd love to get more into this today, but I have to go cliff-diving here in a few

Just some thoughts from a non-metalhead who indulges his dark side once in a while....
....and used to *really* like Linkin Park.
