I haven't posted these yet as this thread keeps popping up every two weeks

Beck - My favourite artist. All of his albums except not a huge fan of Stereopathetic Soulmanure.

Air - Moon Safari and Talkie Walkie are the best albums from this duo from France.

Bjork - Her first three albums are the shiznit, especially Debut.

Cibo Matto - Two Japanese hotties with catchy grooves. What is better?

Pizzicato Five - Another cool Japanese band, but most of their songs aren't in English. The beats and tunes are great.

Daft Punk - Discovery is their best album bar none.

NOT MOBY - I hate Moby music now. It's a great example of cookie-cutter simpleness.

Hello,

Favourite band:
Don't have one. I prefer solo artists

Favourite song:
I'd have to say.. Undying Obsession, One of the songs I composed on my piano.. (BTW I'm about to release my album.. complete with 17 of my best midis.. after I figure out how to copyright them...)

Favourite genre:
Techno/Meditation/Calming the genre of the music that I compose (I really ought to consider making a name for it)

Peace

Yes I downloaded a few of the songs off his new album, and they didn't tickle my fancy in the slightest. They just sound repetitive IMHO. I think one of the big problems is that he DOES sing a lot now, which he never used to do. I actually prefer his albums Play and I Like to Score to anything he does now. He's also too political for me to enjoy listening to as well.

"Mary had a little lamb" was hands down the best song ever written.

If you argue against this, that only means you agree with me.

I listen KoRn, and if you've ever heard Shoots and Ladders, he's singing "Mary had a little lamb". It sounds funny...
Sometimes I listen to the Halo 2 soundtrack too.

Yeah, I have to do that too, otherwise I can't think straight and I feel a little bit uncomfortable if you know what I mean. The music is really just to keep me from getting bored while I code, but I gotta turn it off for a sec when I have to think hard about something.

Anyone heard of Ratatat? All of their songs have the crazies guitar-ing --- such unique music. Just 2 guys and their guitars.

I also enjoy The Postal Service. Some of their stuff is nice.
