I like techno a lot too. Do a search on techno on napster...man you find some weird techno versions of songs. I really like this "Jump around" techno remix song I found. I also like "Ode to Joy" Beethoven 9th symphony (usually featured as a christmas song) but you can hear it a lot in Die Hard. It is also on the Die Hard Soundtrack.

Ummm...I like JayZ too.

Aaron "Hoe Down" is cool too...I like a lot of music, BUT not country. I just can't stand country for some reason. Music about milking cows on a bright summers day, just don't appeal to me

When working i prefer melodic "gotheburg" style metal, heavy & slow sludge/noisecore or some easy techstep/darkstep drum'n'bass.

faustgfx · Posted: Wed Sep 27, 2000 5:43 am

right now?

noise, grindcore, hardcore metal, hardcore punk, hardcore techno, hardcore industrial.

death metal, black metal, power violence, power metal, and n.w.a.

Nex · Posted: Wed Sep 27, 2000 7:54 am

man we had this topic lots of times here..

but anyway:

I am into almost every music except dance/commercial techno and music with dumb lyrics - there is nothing worse than bad lyrics. A band where noone can play is a bad band. but a band of professionals that have stupid lyrics is a fucking bad band IMHO.

Something that you might want to check out (if you open minded and like the "not so clich�" line)

* martin koller's third movement: "Right now"

* Satriani's newest CD (some tracks at least)

otherwise:

* Burn.Time

* Fates Warning "Shades of grey" (the others are not that good IMHO)

* Queensryche "Operation Mindcrime"

* King's X "Dogman"

Well thats some pearls.. if you don't know some of them give them a chance

The grind/death sector seems well-supported here lately

My latest aquisition is the new NILE. It truly redefines the word brutal.

Hey Chris, if you wanna know what techno really sounds like, try searching for:

Jeff Mills
Derrick May
Carl Craig
Joey Beltram
Dan Bell
Pacou
Underground Resistance

I'm not sure how well represented they might be on Napster . . . a lot of techno only comes out on wax.

Agh, I feel like an awful populist and trendiot for not knowing like 90% of the stuff listed here. :|
I listen to quasi-mainstream music.
Currently into Aphex Twin and his ambient works.
I've listed my more specific interests on a few other topics on this...

is it all about death and dying now?? man i'm almost tired of all these dead zombies walking around trying to worship satan... i was in 7th grade when all the kids would wear metal spikes and all black with pale skin.

and then in high school they all turn out to be ugly white trash losers that think they're all bad. ooook, you go off and be bad then...

i like all the music, but i don't like the stupid people who try and be something they're not.

Spitfire · Posted: Fri Sep 29, 2000 1:52 am

Silico, i think you have a rather false image of metal in the late 90ies

It's not rednecks wearing mullets and studs no more. Well, they're still around, but not too many of em. I for one, look pretty boring and generic, not "metal" at all.

And, besides bands like Mortician, Dying Fetus and the like, most metal bands dont have songs about rotting corpses and zombie sodomy anymore. Not the ones mentioned anyway.

"Metal is your friend!"

Another one of course is Paul Okenfold

His stuff is great. Really like his trance tunes.

Yes! Slipknot sucks! Yeehaw! death to false metal!

DaveT · Posted: Sat Sep 30, 2000 11:20 pm

Im not into all this metal stuff Im afraid, im more into hip-hop but I still listen to stuff like Rage against the machine and Limp Bizkit but all this strange hardcore stuff means nothing to me. oh and Slipknot suck real bad.

(Starts running away from horde of violent Slipknot fans)

Count Zero · Posted: Sun Oct 01, 2000 3:02 am

Great.
Now you went and said it. I personally don't know Slipknots music all that much, but I was hoping that, for at least once, we could have a conversation that involves opinions that doesn't stoop to being "X rules! Y sucks!".
And the unavoidable flaming.
Sometimes I just... Ahh, fuck it.

Spitfire · Posted: Sun Oct 01, 2000 3:09 am

Tsss... old hag

faustgfx · Posted: Sun Oct 01, 2000 5:14 am

even the shitty sleeve "art" doesn't save slipknot from damnation in the shitpit.

but then again, i'm taking chances here by admitting i like some of limp bizkit's crap.

but then again, i like all saints over all and everything.

muwhaha.

Roadrunner's putting out shittier and shittier layout jobs with every record... only when the band themselves arranges it, it works out (E.C./Slither - Dave Mckean glory). The ugliest to date must be the "primitive" cover for soulfly. Primitive indeed, just like the shitty music.

DaveT · Posted: Sun Oct 01, 2000 10:11 am

You know just today I was skating through Edinburgh with a friend and we were talking about how bad Slipknot are and some punk overheard us, and he was a real punk, mohican hairstyle, bullet belt, chains, leather straps, piercings, the whole shebang. And he took offence to it and attacked us but we managed to get away.
Seeing as he must be a slipknot fan he must also therefore be a depressed, suicidal misled poof.
Avoid Slipknot fans at all cost they will kill you.

Spitfire · Posted: Sun Oct 01, 2000 11:35 pm

Funny how a "true" punk who obviously must hate capitalism and commercial music, is willing to fight for a band signed on a major label that makes money with making "hard music" easily digestible for the big public

*sigh* another misled fool.

Count Zero · Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2000 6:13 am

DaveT, next time yank on one of the punk's piercings.
*ouch*

There were two slipknot fans in my art class last year. Talk about freaks man. That was sophomoore year in high school, but they were freshman. There's a joke huh? A couple of 15 year old slipknot junkies. I swear, they were some of the two most negative people I have ever known. I think they both deserved a serious reality check (like a boot to the face for instance) anways, thats my experience with evil slipknot fans.
