:D

[McGiver]

-Die Ärzte (German punkband)
-Red Hot Chili Peppers
-everything that ROCKS http://nobodyxxl58.port5.com/Smileys/guitarist.gif

Hmm, what is an europe ?

[catbert303]

anyway back on topic :)

at the moment some favourites are,

Pullman - acoustic band from the chicago post rock scene. collaborators with David Pajo (formally of slint) now in Billy Corgan's new band
Asa Chang and Junray - really stange electronica from japan, beautiful tunes and weird noises :D
Four Tet - kind of like a british DJ Shadow, folk guitar music with beats :)
At The Drive-In - US Punk, sadly they split up a while back, but they were great while they lasted. i'm also looking forward to hearing the debut album by The Mars Volta one of the spin off bands when ATD-I split.
Lambchop - Alt county band from nashville, i'm still puzzled how and band with so many members can be so quiet

I also just ordered the new Mogwai album, can't wait :D

I think that'll do for now :)

[lostinbeta]

Hrmmm

Well one of the normal bands that I love is System of a Down

As for the weird bands (well actually people) that I love are...

Aphex Twin
Venetian Snares
Dieselboy
Nicole Elmer
Squarepusher
AK1200
DJ Dara
Ed Rush
--the list goes on

Yeah, I like freaky electronic music.... GO FREAKY ELECTRONIC MUSIC YEAH!

[catbert303]

Hehe, its good to see the aphex twin making more advertising money, Mercedes are using windowlicker on their adverts in the UK at the moment. great song though :D

But GUN'n'Roses still my all time favour!

[Sualdam]

I saw the Ozric Tentacles a few weeks ago.

Now that is good, freak out stuff.

They were supporting Hawkwind (who were embarrassingly old and awful).

[annexion]

There's a commercial here that's using a DJ Mystic song...

As far as Aphex Twin, one of my favorites. And for those that wonder, it's one guy...

I love all kinds of music but especially lately are the following.

Vangelis
Jean Michel Jarre
Chicane
Paul Oakenfold
Tangerine Dream

And most of all SCATMAN!:p

[webguy]

Well I like gangsta rap because it is full of hatred and emotion.. keeps me from filling my life with hatred and emotion. But at this point my favorite band is SocialBurn. Their whole album is a classic if you ask me. I don't hear much about them though.

:eek: seriously!? Well I wish I lived in the UK at the moment. Aphex Twin get's no play here, they don't even sell his CDs here (well most of them, they had some)! It drives me nuts!

It's funny how Mercedes used Windowlicker in the adverts considering what the term Windowlicker means, it fits perfectly :p


Annexion: Yeah, all the electronic artists I posted were one person. A lot of people tend to think Aphex Twin and Venetian Snares, and Squarepusher are each a whole band.

[catbert303]

hehehe

I think this is still one of my favourite aphex twin stories though http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,52426,00.html

I guess its an advantage being near london, you're never too far from a decent record shop :)

Yeah, that story kinda made Aphex Twin famous for a bit...lol. It is indeed his most popular trick. Only true geniuses can be so great :cool:

Another advantage to living in London would be that you are close to some great Electronic artists.. they seem to like to stay overseas :mad:

Oh well, as long as tower, amazon, and cdnow stay up I can still find some of my favorite artists more mainstream cds so I guess that will do :rolleyes:

[catbert303]

I'm sure warpmart (http://www.warprecords.com/) would be able to help out :)

http://www.leilamusic.co.uk is quite entertaining for some mp3's

(if you've not heard of her leila used to be bjork's keyboard player before releasing a solo LP on rephlex and then moving on to XL records for a second album)

I particularly like the track Do You Got Time from the http://www.leilamusic.co.uk/cee1.htm page, it was meant to be on her second album but got removed due to sample clearance problems.

At the risk of sounding psycho (I am)... I think I love you!

Ok not literally, but the warp records link rocks.

[Colin Campbell]

My favourite band by far is Linkin Park. Has anyone heard their collaborations with the X-ecutioners? Its nuts!

I think it was Just Mr. Hahn that was in the collab with The X-Ecutioners.

I think the singer/guitarist from Static-X was in there as well.

[Colin Campbell]

Nope, the X-ecutioners did that song with Mike Shinoda "Its going down" and then they went on tour together. I must say, my favourite members are the bass player (brad?) or Joe Hahn, he's the man

[linckx]

I like Linkin Park and Korn and EmineM to react of my agression
I like the whole alternative belgian musicscene for listening music.

I like Metallica and Dire Straits for guitar masterpieces
I like the big commercial rap scene (from eve and missy elliot to eminem and dre) for their lysics and just to play 'though'
I like Underworld, Chemical Brothers and Laurent Garnier for dance..;

and then there's those little other bands like RHCP, Moby etc... I like them for their music


robin

[Colin Campbell]

I forgot... System of a Down is good. I used to be really into them, but I don't listen to them that often anymore. My playlist is pretty long now...

[baby_annie]

I see everybody here like ROCK music.
I dont listen much to rock but I like: Linkin Park, many interesting songs by Rock bands that i dont remember their name:D
I listen to Pop, and i prefer boyband like A1, Westlife that's all.

-let's the MUSIC heal your soul-:D

[linckx]

I actually like two boy-band-icons who quit:

robbie williams is superb (even the swing when your winning album) and
justin timberlake... gotta give it to him... cry me a river and rock your body are two sooooo great songs...

robin

[linckx]

otherside?

what a great song! :D

I told you there too I liked everything huh ;)

robin

[soilride]

1. Rage Against the Machine
2. Nine Inch Nails

Of course these are my favorites, as they reflect both sides of who I am...but I am also inspired and love music by:

DJ Shadow/Dj Vadim
Sepultura
Public Enemy
Antonio Vivaldi
Dropkick Murphys
Anything by Hans Zimmer [especially the Gladiator Musical Score]

There so much more...but it would take nearly an eternity to write them down and why...

[Colin Campbell]

wow, that must be some sort of a record:

linckx's post was on 06-18-2003 and your post was on 12-26-2003..... *whistles* lots has changed since then...

anyway, since we're in this topic again, I like In Flames, Dark Tranquility, Soilwork, Element Eighty, Thrice and some more bands now. :)

[Skinner]

i like music :D im another electro boy... but
NOT SHITTY BOY BANDs AND GIRLS...

J Lo yeah nice butt :D

All time fav (if u had heard of them):
1. Tomoyuki Tanaka (a.k.a Fantastic Plastic Machine)
2. Arlin & Cameron
3. Richie Hawtin

And a greate respect to this ppl:
Unkle, Simon Digby, Ken Ishii, Towa Tei, Carl Cox, Aphex Twin,
