Wizz 11 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 There is a discussion going on in the Beckham thread about music. Thought I'd start a new thread to get it out in the open. Coldplay & Travis = cool. Anything to add? Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 Was just gonna add to the beckham thread, but here we are with a music thread. Anyone heard the Marilyn Manson version of Tainted Love. WIERD. Give me Oasis any day. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Cree Summer - Just dig that creepy Still Heart. She's good for getting weird to. And the Gipsy Kings for anytime. J Rawls, Geto Boys, Nicknack for rap. Even Brandy for hiphop. Lauryn Hill's not bad when she's doing her Bob Marley bit. For journeys, Van Morrison and Leonard Cohen. Enigma, Swayzak, Cornelius for work. For the highway, Toots and the Maytals - Funky Kingston, over and over a doo a doo a doo Alicia Keyes - When a Real Man, for lovin'. And real Delta blues with wiggy harp anytime. Gotta get my music... Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 If I get started on this topic, I'll be on all day. Music, "the voice of God" as Brian Wilson once said in that quote that on the sleeve of Daft Punk's Homework LP. Rather than bore you all with my esoteric tastes, I'll just mention the snowboarding vid "Transcendence". It's got some guys riding some extreme Alaska-like terrain and some of the usual suspects (Jussi, Michi, Gigi, Romain, etc) doing their stuff off big kickers. No rails or jibbing, as far as I can remember. A bit short, but that's boarding videos for you. Great photography. The music is by Mos Def, Jill Scott, the Clash, Lou Reed and a couple of half-decent Radiohead tunes. A refreshing change to most of the other vids I've seen, which have been full of skate punk that sounds like Discharge did twenty years ago. The odd hiphop tune thrown in here and there, but that's usually about it. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Enigma are a good choice - got their remix album - excellent stuff. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 MOBY > PLAY > awesome Link to post Share on other sites
referee 0 Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 That Moby album is pretty cool. Wierd at first, but not it's on my player A LOT - especially in the car. His new album is out in a couple of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Its out beginning of May in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
squidgy 0 Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 Moby's 18 is out Thursday. Play is superb stuff - I have heard that the stuff is a little more "ambient" than Play. After all, he can do what the heck he wants selling 10 mill copies of Play. Link to post Share on other sites

klubhead 0 Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 tainted love was originally a ****ing great 60's soul record by gloria jones. first marc almond bodged it and now mm. Is nothing sacred?? Metal?? kids music!! gotta be drum'n'bass or progressive house for boarding. how american kids listen to the kind of shite you hear on the backing trax of snowbo videos is beyond me!! Went to whistler last year and they maybe good boarders but they no nothing about music. If Max Fish is the best night club in whistler.... went to charmonix this season, a different story. Drum'n'bass, breakbeats, hard house, gabba, garage, 2 step, all there!! if it ain't funky!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Obviously not from the UK. The Soft Cell version is a classic in itself. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Just got the new Moby album this morning. First impressions - similar kind of thing as Play, some old blues/gospel singing on there mixed with Moby style music. Certainly not immediate - but Play certainly wasn't either and thats one of my fave albums of the last few years. Link to post Share on other sites
sachiko 0 Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 I really like R.E.M. - especially Out of Time and Automatic for the people . Super CDs. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Never been able to see the appeal with Moby. Just not my kind of music. Didn't every song on that album he did get licenced for use in ads or something? Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 The UK's Radio 1 had a big dance music festival at one of the European ski resorts this season. As ever, the daytime "personality" DJs on Radio 1 are bollox, but some of the specialty shows they have on late at night are superb. Fab and Groove played at the event, I think, as did leftfield kings Kruder and Dorfmeister. It sounded really good. Gabba? Funky?? Metal on samplers if I ask me. Catch your drift with the other stuff tho. Well, dnb YES breakbeat NO. If heavy metal (in the form of Metallica) and mainstream hiphop (in the form of Dre) are so rebellious, why was it them that tried to incriminate their fans for running Napster? Just shows you how much of the music biz is image and stupid posturing. Link to post Share on other sites
barok 0 Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 As for modern music, Dancehall Reggae is good, as long as it doesn't get too cheesy. Metal is good - Metallica, Ozzy, Sabbath. Hip-Hop is great - Tribe Called Quest is #1, Dre and Snoop are good. Rock and roll has seen better days, although there are a few good bands still keepin' it real - the Strokes for one. Punk rock rules - Rancid, No Means No, OpIvy, Misfits, NoFX, (old) Bad Religion, Fugazi, Minor Threat, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, I could go on. 99% of Electronic music is tedious beyond tedious. brain-dead music for brain-dead people. Although I do like some drum and bass, and ambient/experimental stuff like Moby, Aphex Twin, Autechre, and what K & D play, and some techno (Richie Hawtin). Link to post Share on other sites
eddie 0 Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 Electronic music rules! Had to be said. Link to post Share on other sites
danz 0 Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 I think I'm alone in here, but Jambands Rule... String Cheese Incident is a fine example and will be at Fuji Rock this year...hey cheeseman, you should check them out.... also, a healthy dose of funk is good for the soul...Bring on the P-FUNK blues, rock, ambient, deep house, and jazz also make me happy! peace danz Link to post Share on other sites
cheeseman 1 Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 Thanks for the tip danz. I hope the "Incident" wasn't a bad one. But there would be few incidents involving our favorite foodstuff that would be bad. I will have to check this out. Link to post Share on other sites
