What music?
« on: July 13, 2004, 10:07:35 PM »
Totally out of character for me I know, but I am curious what everyone listens too while they play.  Don't ask me why.  Maybe a topic that will be fight free perhaps..... :D  :P
Me?  I listen to Sirius radio atm.  I go from 70's classic rock to 80's alternative and hair bands.  Depends on which station plays the best song when I notice what is on.  "White Room" right now.

Similar Thread in Random Ranting

If you read that you can tell my taste in music is more geared towards those who have contributed a lot to the progression of Rock and Roll.

Nirvana will probably always be my favorite band, although if I could choose any guitarist to steal his ability, it would be Eric Clapton.

I listen to a lot of Clapton, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, The Doors, Pink Floyd (occasionally), Van Halen when i'm in the mood, Aerosmith...

As for more modern groups.. I think most of them are trash.. I do like System of a Down, Drowning Pool and a few of the "Heavier" groups.  Eve6 and Blink 182 I sometimes get in the mood for.

And of course there are occasions where I listen to Carmina Burana by Orff and just relax to the music.  For those who don't know, Carmina Burana is a very old classical work written in latin, it's also probably the single most popular piece from its genre.  You will hear an excerpt from it as the "Theme Song" for both Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Excaliibur: the song O' Fortuna.


I guess I have a pretty wide-ranging taste in music.. I always say that music is the voice of the soul.. there is so much emotion and meaning behind a true musical work of art, that my taste is very mutable.. depending a lot on my present mood and state of mind.

Since everyone's being honest, and no one said "Rap" or "Puff Daddy" just to look cool...

I like industrial metal, rock, some trance, film scores (like spider man), metal, jungle, n' stuff.

Yes, DJ Tiesto is a very talented DJ.. I'm still in love with Baby Anne though.. not necessarily because of her skill, but because I met her at a party once and... damn she's hot.  She's a bit too obsessed with Icey however =/

Oakenfold's earlier stuff I liked, though I don't really care for his more recent music.

Jungle Brothers had some good stuff back in the day.  Crystal Method was great before they became so mainstream.  DJ FBI has some great stuff that really hits a nerve whenever I hear it.

Faithless has a few good tracks, like "God is a DJ" which again, was good until it hit mainstream media.


You bring up a genre and I probably listened to it.

Except rap, yes.. it does take skill, and some of the rappers are very lyrically talented (some), but I don't like the general message of the "Gangsta Rap" nor do I like the cultural stigma it places on the African American community.... but that's a whole different topic.

Oh and I can't stand modern country music either.. too damn cookie cutter... old southern rock and bluegrass was good though.

**EDIT**
Damn 420.. you even got that in alphabetical order... methodical mind, or reading your playlist? =)

Beck....by far. "Satan Gave Me A Taco" ...lol
Mr. Bungle of course and anything that Mike Patton has to do with.
So that includes John Zorn, Melvins, Tomahawk, Fantomas and Faith No More. The more mainstream stuff like Tool, Nine Incha Nails, Nirvana (sometimes), Primus, A Perfect Circle, Weezer. Can't forget meh Buckethead, Secret Chiefs 3, Portishead and Ween. Throw in some serious metal...like Bethlehem, Brujeria, Obituary, Napalm Death....ok the list gets a lot longer....oh little Charles Mingus on dah side.

He is a comedy genius - and he is also my kind of guy - i recommend all you americans get a life and listen to british radio.
 After all - you will be 5 years ahead of the game!
Other than that - your later posts - i know two (beck and potusa) and like them - maybe others are before my time, or never made it to europe
