As far as I can tell, I don't share the same taste in music as anyone on this forum. I'm still waiting for my very first positive mention on the "what are you listening to tonight" thread. I haven't lost hope yet.




Okay, Jordan, I spent the morning listening to some samples of the music you've suggested. I don't want you to feel left out.

Emily Haines--really liked her stuff. Reading into her bio I see she's a member of Broken Social Scene, who's "You Forgot it in People" I own. This was recommended to me by Scott (Sidvicious02). I've added her CD to my list.

Trentemoller--Although I am not a huge fan of techno, this is a bit mellow and atmospheric--which I like. The frantic pounding beats I can't handle. I can see myself enjoying this album.

Thom Yorke--This one's easy. I'm a huge Radiohead fan. Good choice. 'Nuff said.

Miles Davis--Another no brainer. Jazz is hit and miss for me, but "Kind of Blue" is an album everyone should have.

SNFU--Hmm, not for me.

Venetian Snares--Experimental and edgy. Made me nervous. I don't think I could make it through an entire CD.

Ellen Allien--More techno/experimental music. Again, not my taste as a genre, but her music is good. She seems to run her voice through all kinds of digital processors--keeps things interesting.

All in all, a pretty interesting mix. Everyone's tastes are different, so don't feel bad if no one seems to connect. So, please, keep throwing new things out there. I'm not adverse to trying something different.

I think that they are bound together. Not sure how easy they would be to separate.




For my own sanity, I emailed tech support and they said the piece that connects the two cables can be removed. Yeah! Looks like I'll be ordering some after all.

St_PatGuy,

You truly made my day. I am so very impressed that you took the time not only to look up my past music suggestions but also to have a listen to them. Very impressive.

I certainly don't expect everyone to enjoy all of my selections but am glad some some people like some of them some of the time.

Agreed. Venetian Snares can be a tough listen. I think of his work as the musical embodyment of chaos and complexity theory - somehow, there is order amongst what seems to be randomness. His "Rossz Csillag Allat Született" album, where he presumably is trying to get back to his Hungarian roots, is an easier listen.

Since I am on the topic of hometown (being Winnipeg) musicians, I will also suggest Greg MacPherson who offers some really great straight-forward rock music. Since today is May Day, I would suggest Greg's "The Company Store" in particular.

Emily Haines is also in Metric. Busy girl she is.

Cheers and thanks for your feedback.

Jordan

No prob.

Next time, it'll cost you $5.00 per minute. Paypal is preferred.



Okay, I'm kidding.

It's really $7.50 per minute.

That seems like a lot of money...Is there any sex talk included in this price?

Wow! TMI That reminds me of those two guys(funniest home videos?) playing the piano with their pants down. Hilarious!

I once played the skin flute with my pants down.
