music

hey, im just curious about what type of music everyone on the team photoshop are into. well i'll start it off with what i like:

gino beats
techno
trance
dance

anything that will keep the honda civic crx pumpin

There's an old thread back a couple of months ago that asks about people's favorite bands. Maybe you should check that out as well.

But anyway.....

I enjoy rock music. Like Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead, Cake, Foo Fighters, 311, etc etc.

And some punk like Blink182, Good Charlotte, etc.

And also techno/trance stuff.

When I'm designing I pretty much always listen to techno/trance or Radiohead. They are very soothing, and they don't demand your attention. I can't stand listening to rock or punk when I'm trying to think. It's too distracting.

I never get tired of talking about music.

In my stereo now are:
Radiohead/Kid-a & Amnesiac
Pink Floyd/Animals
Beck/Mutations
Spyro Gyra/In the Heart of the Night
Ultra Lounge/Mysterious Melodies and Tropical Tiki Tunes
Portishead/Dummy
Brainscapes/Didgeradoo Music
Enigma/Cross of Changes
The Moody Blues/In Search of the Lost Chord

Punk : AFI ( yeah it's mall rock, but they are good ), The Dead MilkMen, Iggy Pop. I don't consider Blink182 or any of what MTV deems punk to be actual punk, go figure.

Rock : Train, 311, Live, Tragically Hip, Son Volt, Billy Pilgrim, Blue Mountain, Cowboy Mouth, Southern Culture on the Skids, 7 Mary 3, Drivin' and Cryin', Jump Little Children, Jasmine Attic and other local bands.

Heavy : Staind, Disturbed, Motor Head, Sepultura, Black Sabbath and Ozzy.

Classic Rock : Anything. I like all of it. Doors, Jimmy Hendrix, Pink Floyd ( before Roger Waters left ), Foreiner ( yes ).

Classical : Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin and Wagner.

Country : *shudder* When I have to, it's usually Mary Chapin Carpenter. She's not really country, but they play her on country stations.

In no particular order

Creed
"Weird Al" Yankovic
Stained
Matchbox 20
Sugar Ray

well, looks like this time i am the odd olor out, cause i like rap, r & b, and oldies...am i the only person on this board who likes rap?

you are an odd man out to me. because how the heck do you like rap and oldies. they are completely different. it's like liking rock metal and orchestra.

My favorite types of music:

Alternative
Blues
Classic Rock
Country
Dance
Drum & Bass
Electronic
Hard/Modern Rock
Hip Hop
Industrial
Metal
Porn-Funk
Punk
R&B
Rap
Reggae
Ska
Techno

In other words, I own just about every possible genre of music that has a beat.

My top favorite artists are:

Garth Brooks
Fatboy Slim
Marilyn Manson
Green Day
Van Morrison
2Pac
Guns n' Roses

Nothing in common. If the music has a good beat to it, I'll listen to it. And NO, pop is NOT music, it does not have a good beat, it does NOT have good lyrics, and 90% of the artists do not write 90% of their music.

And Danforth, he likes those different kinds of music because he is OPEN-MINDED. Open your ears AND your mind. Do NOT listen to a certain type of music because MTV or your close friends tell you to. Listen to it because it gets inside you. Listen to it because it creates emotion. Whether that emotion be sadness, happiness, anger, whatever. A truly good song will give you goosebumps and you will NEVER get sick of it.

I live near the beaches on the east coast, so I like shag/beach music. 'Shag' is the state dance of South Carolina, not the other meaning made popular by that movie.

I don't like rap mainly because I don't consider someone talking really fast about money, bitches and hoes and the cars they have is entertaining. But you are entitled to your opinion. There used to be some rap that I liked ie Public Enemy, Run DMC, Beastie Boys. The new type of rap, that started with 'gangsta rap' just makes me laugh.

heh, well, i don't like pure rap, i like songs like 'ride with me', with some rap, and some r & b
