my CD player is starving

Techno. Some Eurpoeans claim that techno is a "new" thing and that they are pioneers. Wrong. Techno has been around long before some pastey white dj got ahold of it. Remember Disco? I rest my case.

I've never heard any Europeans claim such a thing, but I must tell you that electronica was in fact pioneered in EU (a long time ago) and it has nothing to do with disco.

Okay, I'm about ten days late with this post, but I just can't pass up the opportunity to comment on music. Here is what I'm diggin' at the moment:

Radiohead/Kid-A and Amnesiac (2 bad@$$ experimental albums)
Steve Roach/Serpent's Lair and Light Fantastic (serious ambient/trance)
King Crimson/In the Court of the Crimson King
Massive Attack/Mezanine and No Protection
Pink Floyd/Meddle
Alice in Chains (a moment of silence for Layne Staley)
Phish
Stone Temple Pilots/4
Mad Season/Above

Out of all of these, the Radiohead albums seem to never leave my CD player. I never really got into them until they U-Turned styles with these two albums. This is the ultimate 420 band.

Lates,
Justin

*PS-All manufactured fluff pop must burn in hell for spreading their $#!t all over the radio waves. Will this crap ever die???

ok check out all the work by "BT" i think his best work is "rare (album name)"

and "Hybrid" kicksass, check out there CD "Wide Angel"

maybe ill send you some of my work when i get my CD done....

and umm thje above stuff is electronic (and great) but if you want something mellow i would consider "Ben Harper" "Ani Defranco" and David Bowies all instrumental CD

and yea RadioHead ROCKS!!!!!

hrm...new tunes eh?

i suggest :
hadyn cello concertos
(probably sold in combo w/ the boccerini ones)

the bruch and mendolssen violin concertos

tchiaokovsky violin concerto in D (great stuff)

hummel fantaisie, the Ouverture to Fingal's Cave,
Rodeo from Hoe Down, Bach Cello Suites, J.C. Bach
viola concerto in C minor...

enjoy :D

classical is alwats a plus =)

or some italino music like Boceli, he rocks =)

Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

BT is right, it has nottin to do with Disco, and please dont call electronic music "techno" people that call all electronic music "techno" prove to know notting of it.... so did anyone pick up "Hybird" like i told you to? hey BT, did ya know that "BT" worked with "Hybrid" alot of his new stuff has a bit of Hybrids style in it.....

also Hybrid is on the SSX soundtrack (PS2 Game)

Graphicsguy- I've heard The Apex Theory before. I liked the guitar, bass and drum parts but to me, the vocals sucked. I hate the style. It's a sort of wannabe rap and I find it annoying. I'm sure the guy can do some great stuff with his voice, but he isn't on that CD. I don't like rap. I do however, like singers like David Draiman of Disturbed who use their voice as driving rhythmic force.

hey NOA - Agreed. I can't stand that new tune that makes my ears bleed every time I jump in my car (by Apex Theory). I just suggested it since I saw them recently and the live show was pretty good. (Static X, on the other hand - had a drunk ass sound guy that night, so they got upstaged by Apex, irony....)

makes you wonder though, if a band puts on a great live show, and then the produced CD sound sucks @ss, why even go into the studio, why hire a producer if all they produce is crap?

...things that keep me up at night...

right now, I'm listening to some of that new Korn, some Pennywise, NOFX/Rancid, Sevendust, Satriani, Slow To Surface, and Phatter Than Albert. (dumb name, great LV band) - no bluegrass for my ass. no country or classical either. not my style... and Pink Floyd just puts me to sleep, which at times, is a good thing...
