Anyway, I don't really listen much, but when I do it's one of the three I voted above ^

Title: Re: Music We Listen To
Post by: Juju on May 25, 2011, 10:35:49 pm
Mostly videogame music (8/16-bit style, Touhou, etc.), techno/trance (DJ Omnimaga :D), rock (some Québécois bands are not bad), pop (Rick Astley <.<), heavy metal (Metallica and the like), in fact, a lot of stuff. Don't forget Vocaloids (Hatsune Miku ^_^) who can sing pretty much anything.
Title: Re: Music We Listen To
Post by: ruler501 on May 25, 2011, 10:39:12 pm
Yeah I'm going to add Rick Astley to my list of favorites

I never seem to be able to like techno gets on my nerves
arcade i like but it gets annoying after 30 min and I usually listen to music for 2+hours

Techno is more beat with sounds while electronic dance music got melodies, vocals and other stuff, like other music kinda, rather than mostly sounds.

Also I added power metal and death metal to the list.

I myself listen to the following music genres:

The following list starts with my favorites with an example, for those who are not familiar

-'90s Eurodance

-Power metal

-German happy hardcore (speed up '90s eurodance with a more dreamy sound)

-UK hardcore (Evolved from happy hardcore and trance)

-Eurobeat (Evolved form of italo-disco)

-Italo disco (evolved form of disco)

-Eurodance

-Trance from 1999 to 2002

-Happy hardcore


Besides that, I can listen to music from any genre, even country, if I like the chord progression, melody, etc. This is why for example I like one single Madonna, Lady Gaga and two Céline Dion songs, and happen to like some ballads even if I'm normally not into their genre. Here are some songs from genres I normally dislike that I happen to exceptionally like:

Dschinghis Khan - Moskau (Disco)

Céline Dion - Délivre Moi (Rock... and you thought she only had ballads? :P)

Madonna - I'll remember (pop/ballad)

Lady Gaga - Alejandro (R&B/pop/electronic)


With the exceptions of these songs, I do not like most stuff from the 4 artists above.

The only Sid's that come to mind off the top of my head that are musicians are Syd Barret (Pink Floyd) and Sid Vicious (the Sex Pistols). Or do you mean something/someone else?
