My music's better than your music because it's more obscure. Neener neener neener.

I figure that I should suggest some songs rather than poo-pooing others.
Here's my Neener Neener song list:

- "Installation" by Akufen
- "Funkenflug Der Traeume" by Ellen Allien
- "Gloomy Sundy" Bjork
- "Future Proof" or "Butterfly Caught" by Massive Attack
- "Nuet" by Midi Miliz
- Flamenco Sketches" by Miles Davis
- "Rock Candy" by Genghis Tron
- "Desert Search for a Techno Allah" by Mr. Bungle
- "Sonar Blow Job" by Portishead & Kraftwerk
- "Radiation" by Richie Hawtin
- nearly anything off Kid A by Radiohead
- "Bend Over" by Wagon Christ

As good at Floyd's DSOTM and Diana Krall may be I still need a bit more.

I think I am venting because of a crap day at work so I am currently hating both the Government and people in general. But, they say music calms the savage beast, so, it's "Ad Lib on Nippon" time (Duke Ellington).

Cheers all,

J

They weren't necessarily obscure - just really good.

Well, I'm still waiting for my Axioms to arrive, so I'm spending my time planning the first evening's listening session.

So far the program looks something like:

1) Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man"
2) "Dulcissime Blanziflor Et Helena", "Ave formosissima", and "O Fortuna" from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana
3) "Dance of Kashchei's retinue, Under The Firebird's Spell" and "Infernal Dance Of All Of Kashchei's Subjects" from Igor Stravinsky's The Firebird Suite
4) Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor
5) "The Package" and "The Pet" from A Perfect Circle's Thirteenth Step
6) "The Gloaming" from Radiohead's Hail to the Thief
7) "Riddles in the Dark" from Chris Thile's Not All Who Wander Are Lost
8) "Into the West" by Annie Lennox from The Return of the King Soundtrack
9) "Wings for Marie" and "10,000 Days" from Tool's 10,000 Days
10) A nice 5.1-mixed Soundstage concert featuring Tori Amos

There, nothing in my top 10 from 70's or 80's icons.

Jordan, after your comment about "so much good music", I was disappointed not to see any classical selections in your list.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Juno Reactor, Mona Lisa Overdrive

(you would reconize it as the song during the car chase of the 2nd Matrix movie)

Juno Reactor is amazing.

You've exposed my one true musical weakness. I do not listen to very much classical. I find it very hit and miss. There are times when I am blown away and then times when I am put to sleep.

I saw a duet perform some modern tango pieces that I really enjoyed. Although not classical, The Gotan Project does some great stuff with tango.

Juno Reactor is indeed a great group. I went through a bit of a Goa phase for a little while back. "High Energy Protons" "God is God" "Conga Fury" "Bible of Dreams" all great stuff.

I've been listening a lot to Fischerspooner lately. That and various covers of "I fought the law".

Cheers,

Jordan
