snowbender 3 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 My mate went to one of the Muse concerts and said it was the best gig he's been to. Really looking forward to that too. Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I quite like Muse actually and I have seen a few clips as well - looks great. I really like the new Seal album, great one for the car. Link to post Share on other sites
igloo 3 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I used to love his first album and that Killer track. He was a scary looking dude. He's married with kids to Heidi Klum now! Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Emigma - the singles collection they did with a disc of remixes. That remix cd is really good. Link to post Share on other sites

grandmastaal 0 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 zero 7, newton faulkner and 'soil and "pimp" sessions' for chilled out stuff. Dragonforce, priestess and Finntroll for mental metal days. Bent, digitalism and justice for a dancey mood. Fire camp, skepta and roll deep for grimey UK hip hop sessions. and Estradasphere for when im considering insanity:) Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I quite like some of Digitalism Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Got Queen GH1/2 on in the car. Classic stuff. Always good to go back to from time to time. Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I'm afraid Queen leave me cold, but I've wound back a bit further, and dug out the first two Roxy Music albums. They rocked. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I know I'm getting old when I don't even recognise hardly any of the bands mentioned in this thread. Queen and Roxy Music are defintely more my era and they both rocked. In the car I normally listen to bands like Hunters and Collectors, Greenday, Crowded House, The Pretenders, Nina Simone and U2. For some Japanese music I like The Blue Hearts. Basically I like music where the bands use real instuments and real vocals. Can't stand all the electronic club music.

veronica 2 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 What is a "real instrument"? Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Do I really need to define that?? I don't consider sounds created by some computer program or some guy 'scratching' a record to be music with 'real instruments'. Link to post Share on other sites
tripitaka 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Arcade Fire from the indie music mecca of Montreal. Playing in Osaka next Thursday, then Nagoya the next day and Tokyo on the 11th. Link to post Share on other sites
ssar 0 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I am currently listening to the rain fall and cascade down our plants, retaining walls, chain-drainpipes outside the windows nearby. Link to post Share on other sites

ssar 0 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Currently listening to 1233 ABC Newcastle Radio which broadcasts a range of programs and few songs this time of day, can be quite interesting. Also very few adverts - VERY good aspect! Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 David Gray - 'White Ladder' - great album. All the songs on it simple wonderful. Link to post Share on other sites

What is a real instrument then? is "sounds" generated with computers and vinyl a lesser art form? (just like electric amplified guitars was 60 years ago) Sorry but you sound very conservative Go Native, Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I was lucky to grow up in the 60's, when rock and pop were the same. Hendrix did Hey Joe live on Top of the Pops. He was ugly, black and played the guitar with his teeth. It's been downhill since 1967. Sorry, never heard of 801, but I'll give them a spin. Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The new Moby album sounds interesting moby on 'last night' '"last night" is basically a love letter to dance music in new york city. what i love about the new york approach to dance music is the eclecticism and the open minded-ness on the part of the musicians, the dj's, and the people in the bars and clubs. in making 'last night' i essentially tried to take a long 8 hour night out in new york city and condense it into a 65 minute long album.'

Sounds like LCD Soundsystem did it on his last album. Check out the song "New York I love you" Will likely blow Moby out of the water. It was one of the best albums of 07.

Thunderpants 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Soubs, 801 was a project by Brian Eno and Phil Manzanera, both Roxy music. they made one studio album and one live album. Try to get the live album, really good! I am listening to The Meters, good funky music, which reminds me to kindly ask Mr. Wiggles to post a name or two in this tread. i need some inspiration Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I remember Brian Eno leaving, but I didn't know he collaborated with Phil Manzanera. I mostly listen to blues. Nothing funky there, but Lightnin Hopkins plays cool guitar. Virtuoso stuff, but you have to listen to hear it. Link to post Share on other sites
