SGHawkins09 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 My favorite music to listen to is Two Steps From Hell and Audiomachine. Whenever TSFH releases something new, I probably listen to only it for about two weeks before I go back to something else and even then it is usually a mix of their albums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aku-chan Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Question 28: What do you like in music? I don't follow any particular style of music, I just listen to the stuff I like listening to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMelons Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Question 28: What do you like in music? I like variety. As I'm aurally challenged, its very hard to like the new stuff that's out but sometimes there's tokens. If I made a list of all the musicians I liked, we would be here all day. As of late though I've been listening to a lot of folk and indie music. I like the sound of the Civil Wars and Of Monsters and Men. Course that means I love Manchester Orchestra and Mumford and Sons. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falstius Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) My favorite Pandora station is Cowboy Mouth+Yokko Kano (anime music)+Slobberbone. My second favorite is Carolina Chocolate Drops+Gaelic Storm. So a mix of Rock, Americana, Alternative, Bluegrass, and Celtic. I'll also seek out Blues (Muddy Waters style mostly), Jazz (like Sun Ra) and Classical (Mahler Symphony #5 is a favorite). ETA: Oh, and I've been relearning a LOT of Folk songs recently to sing to the baby. Edited December 5, 2014 by falstius 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsmiles Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Question 28: What do you like in music? Easier to list what I don't like: Nickelback, Country, most Rap, and most current Pop music (excluding KPop, I like KPop). EDIT TO ADD: Nerdcore ranks near the top, if that helps clear things up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetic_joe Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 So 25 and 27. Star Wars first but the original trilogy. Accomplishment. A few years ago I lost 142 lbs. I unfortunately since have put a bit back on but I am still down quite a lot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loim Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Question 28: What do you like in music? I like a bit of everything. I don't care for a lot of pop, most Rap, and some gospel. I listen to a lot of alternative, rock, classic rock, country, bluegrass, folk, and older metal. I like guitar a lot. And good drums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CashWiley Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Question 28: What do you like in music? Good music. Pretty much any genre, though as I get older I listen to less popular music and more traditional music (stuff like manouche, fado, roma, flamenco, etc). I'm approaching 10k songs across my 2 cloud stash spots now, I usually just put it on random. On guitar I play classical, blues, rock, country and I'm trying to pick up some manouche. Bass I mostly played professionally in a metal band, so I'm not very good outside those parameters - my physical skill is good but my knowledge is not. Unfortunately I don't have many recorded examples, but (long story) we finally got our demo digitized this year. It's from 1989 or 90, and pretty rough. I had been playing bass for around 6 months when we recorded it (I was originally 2nd lead guitar), and we ditched that drummer for a more progressive dude and moved to the west coast, aaand it was recorded live in a single take because we were broke. Drums I mostly play funk, rock and blues; I don't play fills well so stay away from metal but I heart guys like Brann Dailor (Mastodon) and Thomas Pridgen (Mars Volta) with lots of snare and fills. My singing voice I liken to a cross between Tom Waits and Howlin' Wolf...not too pretty. Hope to have some vocal work recorded soonish, my first scratch track turned out better than I thought (a very rough version of Angie by the Stones). 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai-Mongar Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Right now I'm happily enjoying some Christmas music, which I haven't been able to in years past because I've had to endure non stop Christmas songs at work. But normally I'm a rocker. My favorite band is probably Blue Öyster Cult, whom I'll be going to see live next May. But mostly I'll listen to whatever fits my mood at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixonGrfx Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 My music tastes line up pretty well with Tale Spinner. With the addition of some Broadway Musical Scores. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I'm in the 'a little bit of everything as long as it's decent' camp, but I certainly have favorites. Going by total duration in my music library, the top three would be game soundtracks (Jeremy Soule is a god; I also enjoy instrumental music in general), metal (especially symphonic metal e.g. Within Temptation), and anything with Celtic influences (New Age, Irish traditional since I used to fiddle, and groups like Gaelic Storm and Flogging Molly). My brother also recently got me hooked on The Glitch Mob, great background music for working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturne Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Mostly it's pretty much anything that would fall under the new wave of British metal banner, and symphonic metal I do have a wide taste though, Wolf & I by Oh Land is getting a lot of play at the moment. The album, Thirst for Romance by Cherry Ghost is one of the ones I'll happily give a full play of any time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
