Rob Zombie...
Works well with Twisted Metal why not the other type of racing
Other type? Twisted Metal isn't any type of racing. TM tends to feel right with crashbang startstop sorts of music where racing seems to work better with more sustained evenly paced music that doesn't vary in volume a lot or switch tempos [unless there's a slow acceleration of tempo.]. Okay, so I'm a bit old-fashioned in my racing music. :D
I could use some hard rock with Wipeout though... like Slipknot as an example. It may not have an evenly paced beat, but it has a constant one, and can get you quite energetic much like red bull... ;)
Tiesto, Surburban Train...
Also, Alison Moyet, Nobody`s Dairy. (never been to No`1 in the eighties!)
stevie:)
Gorillaz have a newer album coming out the 19th of this month...
You can check out their music on myspace...
Mice Parade - Sneaky Red
Someone I met at a Karate concert recommended this band... it was in the Summer of 2005. I did not take time to check Mice Parade out. A couple of days ago I stumbled upon a CD of theirs in a record store, listened briefly, and bought it. :)
Fish - Throwing Muses
"I have a fish nailed to a cross on my apartment wall...it sings to me with glassy eyes and quotes from Kafka..." LOL!! love it a little too much.
I'm listening to two things:
1. Daft Punk - Burnin'
Best house song EVER! :rock *goes to defy what I just said by listening to Mothership Reconnection by Scott Grooves*
2. The original score of Beowulf. No plot just pure unadulterated testosterone.
Portal (ending credits)
PS> the cake is a lie:p
I admire your taste in lyrics.
If you like weird word sequences, try this: http://redwill.livejournal.com/
Yeah, it's mine. Blatant self-promotion to link it, but you might find part of it entertaining, especially the newest four entries.
Yeah, it might be blatant self-promotion, but hey, someone's gotta do it!;) Thanks for the linky!!
Yes, I loved the latest 5 or so entries the most. I love writing which appears to be written exactly as it was thought, straight from brain to paper. It simulates the author's thought patterns for others to (attempt to) understand in a way only complex music can come close to.
(And I am beyond impressed that you mention Akhenaton. One of the most interesting characters I've ever known about in Egyptian Pharaonic history.)
Akhenaten was one of the most interesting characters in all of history. But uh.. perhaps I digress too far and too long from the topic of the thread.
hm... Akhenat..on en an in un. Sheesh, it all works in mod English. :D
listen to
Justice Vs Simian - We are your Friends
and
Daft Punk - Technologic
lately. Picked them up from my Media library again and now I can't stop listening :D These tracks are just too good.
Buy it, use it, make it, fix it, trash it, change it, melt-upgrade it.
Charge it, point it, zoom it, press it, snap it, work it, quick-erase it....
Yes, I find that song awesome as well. :nod
Right now I'm listening to Funkstorung - I/O. Weirdness, thy name is IDM. :lol
Listening to NWA "Straight outa Compton" If you dont know it download it from XXXXXXXXX (parental discression is advised)
No mention of peer-to-peer/ bittorrent network : Read the guidelines
BURIAL - Untrue
listen here: - http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=56128
The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatrist
That boy needs therapy.
Psychosomatic.
That boy needs therapy.
Purely psychosomatic.
That boy needs therapy.
Lie down on the couch.
What does that mean?
Your a nut!
You're crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean?
That boy needs therapy.
I'm gonna kill you.
That boy needs therapy.
Ranagazoo, let's have it to you,
On the count of three.
Tha-tha-at-tha-that-tha-that boy needs therapy.
He was white as a sheet,
And he also made false teeth.
Weird, yes, but the best Australian song I've heard in a long time. :nod
Hi All.
Now!
Kraftwerk - The Man Machine (Live Version)
They are the Electro Masters!!! ;)
Read You Soon
CdRom
Kraftwerk is synth pop. Electro is a U.S. invention (think Africa Bambaataa), heavily influenced by synth pop but blends elements of funk.
- F
Haven't we covered this already? :)
Daft Punk is dance music, not house. I for one have never heard Daft Punk played in the house underground here in Toronto in my sixteen years on the scene. :)
- F
Electro, Electro-House and House are the best imo :)
Though sometimes I don't mind some Trance and other electronical stuff as well :)
Yeah, yeah Flashback. You don't have to be so nit-picky.:dizzy
But now I know such sub-genres exist!
I generally follow this rule: Listen. If I like, I buy, and if I do not like, I do not buy.
Genres are almost meaningless to me...
We also went through this quibbling around two years ago about names based on minuscule differences in music. Just enjoy the music instead of the classification.
There _are_ occasions where the genre/classification is _very_ descriptive of the type of music. For example:
Nerdcore Hiphop
Hobbit Rap
But as a general rule, yes, classifications are not very useful.
Aphex Twin: Windowlicker. I must've listened to this track about 10 times in a row!! This sh** is crazy!!!
agreed, Aphex Twin is a great artist
They're Australian? Dunno why but I always assumed they were british. must be because they remind me so much of Mr Scruff. Also if you think the song's great, check out the video :D
Currently listening to Fluke - Goodnight Lover
I was cleaning up my drives over the weekend and found a folder of music from all the wipeout games, including 64 :)
Hi All.
now i listen to....
Ulrich Schnauss - Never Be The Same from Goodbye album.
I'm pretty sure that it is a downbeat electro ambient stuff ;)
.....sometimes, someone called it new age, but........i'm not in agreement with this classification.
Remember.... It is very important the age of a reviewer......i'm 45 years old and I listen to the early born electronic music, or to the early born pop/rock in the seventies.
now i find out that it's called 'prog'.......Genesis, ELP, Marillion, King Crimson, PFM, Yes, for me for example they aren't prog music makers, but pop/rock with some particular music style influences.
Yes and ELP are in Symphonic Rock groove.
Genesis and Marillion are in Romantic Rock groove.
Now when i read the actual classification they are all called prog musicians......aaaah the young reviewers......:D
Electronic music for me it's all the early music movements in Germany of Seventies, from Ash Ra Temple, to Kraftwerk.
In seventies the 'analog synth' was called 'electronic instrument' ;)
In this age no 'synth pop' exist.
....they didn't have any type of digital synth in this historical period only analogic sinth like vcs3, or moog, or arp odissey (do you remember The wall of electronic sound of Schulze?)
When i think and refer to 'Synth pop', i find only some groups in early eighties, like the fantastic 'Art Of Noise' for example and when i speak about electro, I find only Kraftwerk in early seventies When the synth pop was not yet born.
excuse my bad english, but i hope that you understand my little opinion :)

EDIT: I agree that generation plays a large part in the classification of music. As a member of Generation X, electro (electrofunk) to me is classified as one of the few sub genres of hip hop. To my knowledge, Kraftwerk did have at least one crossover track that was very popular in the early breakdance scene (Tour de France, original mix), but aside from that and the massively-sampled Trans-Europe Express (the protototype for Afrika Bambaataa's Planet Rock), they were as a genre somewhat distinct from early electro. Kraftwerk in my opinion were always on the experimental side of electronic music, not really tailored for dance, which electro was suited for. Despite this, Kraftwerk figures heavily into the influence of U.S.-based producers during the early emergence of electro and techno. I've heard of synthpop and technopop bounced around when describing Kraftwerk, but for all we know, they may even ride the boundaries of genres if that's even possible.
As for me, I'm currently listening to:
Robert Hood - The Protein Valve (A1 Mix)
Haunting minimal detroit 4/4 tech with a slice of acid.
- F
I am listening to the holy mother of all drum&bass tunes at the moment;
Lynx - Disco Dodo
(sorry, this has to be typed in caps>>>) WHAT A TUNE!
I Got This Down - Simian Mobile Disco
Not Daft Punk, by any means, but pretty darn close. ;)
Huun Huur Tu - Fly, Fly My Sadness
Great throat singings tracks.
Only to say there's a new music channel at http://www.di.fm called Electrohouse which is pretty damn good : not much house but electro :guitar
Moby - Living
One of my favorite songs ever I do believe. :)
36 Crazyfists: Bloodwork...
Future Sound of London, Pulse State from the album Accelerator.
Classic old school dance, very hypnotic chilled with a beat.
Nine Inch Nails --} No, you don't
Sounds Of Life-Pendulum
=]]
Who's heard of DJ Whore? I beleive they could do music for Wipeout very well if they wanted to...
Edit: Well... not all songs are good, but I like klubbkydz and DiSCOTEKA tracks the most from what I've heard... they're hot... :D
