What style of music are you listening to right now?

[mvd]

Thought I'd shake up the normal "listening to" thread this time. I'm listening to country right now. More specifically, samples from Vince Gill's 4-CD set These Days. I do want to get it, but not at iTunes. It's $25 to download it. You can get the set for a little over $20 at CD Universe.

Earlier today, I listened to pop (Lisa Palleschi samples - sounds beautiful - a mix of Sarah McLachlan and Michelle Branch) and rock (Duncan Sheik - Daylight.)

[Omphaloskepsis]

1. I'm not really sure.

The band is Cute is What We Aim For.... Rock - Pop - Indie Pop... Not really sure how to classify it.

They are lame but fun. Good music to clean the house to.

[ThomCat]

2. Dance Pop station in France.

[ghostsofgiants]

3. Electronic Post-hardcore

Well, not currently listening, but Idiot pilot's "Strange We Should meet Here" is currently paused in Winamp.

[Fox Mulder]

[Ariana Celeste]

7. Hey, babe!

I'm doing pretty good! Been rearranging and deep cleaning my apt- the MIL is coming out Nov. 7th (finally booked her flight) and so I'm working early to make a good impression... :7

How are ya? :hug: :hi:

[bigwillq]

12. She's coming on Election Day?

:shrug:

Make sure you vote in between all of the craziness! :)

I'm busy! Work is crazy!

:hi: :hug:

[Ariana Celeste]

17. Yes.... fortunately she has a key in case I'm not home

She knows that I have to vote! And it's a pretty short walk, too... :7

I'm glad you took a minute to say hi! :hug:

[bigwillq]

24. Is she a repuke?

:shrug:

[Ariana Celeste]

25. Nah...

She doesn't vote by party, she votes by candidate. Has things in common with both the left and the right, and doesn't particularly favor either of 'em. ;)

[bigwillq]

29. So what about the man?

How is he?

[Ariana Celeste]

30. He's...

Green/Socialist... but votes mainly (D) out of hatred for (R)'s.

[idgiehkt]

11. thanks for the link

veddy insteretting.

[Ariana Celeste]

[mainegreen]

14. They're pretty good.

And goa is gloriously wonderful as a general rule.

[Ariana Celeste]

20. I'm def. going to be checking out more

I was just turned onto Juno Reactor recently, and I imagine there must be a lot more great Goa trance groups out there! I'm really diggin' the sound. :)

[mainegreen]

22. Green Nuns of the Revolution: Rock bitch mafia

Perhaps the best goa album ever IMHO. It's outa print and hard to find, but if your interested in it, PM me & I could arrange some mp3's to download.

[Ariana Celeste]

26. Right on...

;)

[idgiehkt]

8. Russian pop, whatever I can find on youtube or myspace

I don't know why, I just really like it. The rap group Delfin, Yulia Savicheva, this woman whose name I don't know but who is like a complete goddess and makes me wanna move to Russia:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TVloI7aUVY&search=yulia%20savicheva%20%D0%AE%D0%BB%D0%B8%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%B0%20%D0%95%D1%81%D0%BB%D0%B8%20%D1%81%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B4%D1%86%D0%B5%20%D0%B6%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%B5%D1%82%20%D0%BB%D1%8E%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%8C

we are definitely being starved in the U.S.

[mvd]

9. I just heard about a Japanese pop duo, Puffy AmiYumi

They sound very good. I'll gladly add them to my American and Canadian pop.

[mvd]

16. BTW, I like the song in that link

The duo I mentioned does many songs in English, but she has a nice voice for any language.

[idgiehkt]

28. she used to be in a group called,

wait for it....

Via Gra. And it's very fitting, here is the current line-up, it's like a Russian Spice Girls. This song is called "Biology", it's hot.

edit: actually she might be one of these singers, it's hard to tell because the camera doesn't stay on the redhead long enough for me to be able to tell, she's not with them any more, as a far as I understand.

[hippywife]

[FarLeftRage]

19. Late '70's New Wave

The Cars' debut album in CD format...

[Initech]

23. Comedy, specifically of the Bill Hicks variety

Man, I cannot begin to tell you how much Bill's comedy has kept me from climbing the clock tower over the last two years.

[ghostsofgiants]

31. Bill Hicks was a fucking genius.

[izzybeans]

34. "Where's the tower, where's the gun...Where's the tower, Where's the gun

I was adopted by pro-life Christians when I was a child. Why couldn't I be adopted by the Satan worshiping family down the block? You know the one with the good albums."

I'm going to have to end my shuffle and move on to some Bill Hicks. "thank you forgiving lord for all these options!"

[Starbucks Anarchist]

27. "Nebraska" by Bruce Springsteen.

Partly because it's for research/inspiration for a screenplay I'm writing, and partly because it's a freaking great album.

[Dangerously Amused]

32. Pat Benetar.

It's a little too little, it's a little too late...


Hah! Bastards!

[izzybeans]

33. My itunes calles it thrash/speed metal

before my shuffle moved on it was alt country and prior to that R/B

[raptor_rider]

35. In the house

it is Meditation music, it is what is my 4 month old son likes and it is very soothing! I also listen to it at work, since my office buddy doesn't like any music in the office (I have it at a low volume.) However in my vehicle, I have Rob Zombie, NIN, etc. Just a metal head at heart.

[evlbstrd]

36. I hesitate to classify it.

Chris Whitley's "Living With the Law." Is it blues? Folk? Country? I don't know, I just think it's great.

[ChoralScholar]

37. I'm listening to the movie "Rent" playing in the next room. EOM

43. G*O*D !!! CLAPTON !!! AND BLUES, BLUES, BLUES, baby.

Not a Clapton fan? then don't read this. :)

I saw him last Thursday night in Charlottesville, along with 16,000 other folks...more on this later.

His new album with JJ Cale (Cocaine, After Midnight) comes out Nov. 7. I'm listening to it now, online. Here's a review:

>>
Those who believe that Eric Clapton is not God will be delighted to know that J.J. Cale dominates most of this album (he wrote 11 of the 14 tracks). Others who caught on to Slowhand's '70s period when it was evident that all Clapton wanted was to be like Cale (he covered Cale's "Cocaine" and "After Midnight," among others, and blatantly adopted Cale's persona), should relish in a collaboration between the two that was long overdue. It's uncanny how much this slow burning, bluesy, twangy album sounds like a '70s Cale album with modern day production. Slowhand gets even slower.
- Eric Shea

more on this album here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Escondid



Ole Slow-hand has slowed down so much on this album that he, with JJ Cale's influence, sounds almost 'Dylan-esk.'

[BuddhaGirl]

44. Dead Can Dance...genre? Not sure!

But I love them!

[Mojambo]

45. Shake Some Action comp

It's a power-pop night.

[6000eliot]
