Sovereign - Neurosis
Black One - SunnO)))
Frogstomp - Silverchair
Nevermind - Nirvana
Pack Up the Cats - Local H
Smash - Offspring
The Clash - The Clash (UK version...listening to it right now)

That's more than I usually get time for (and they're all albums I haven't played in a while). So, what about you? Anything interesting?

Hold Music...

Libra Radio of Slovenia, Mbata Kongo - Sola, stuff from 8bitpeoples

Hold Music...

Yeah, i'm not much of a Coltrane fan either.



:p

Effloresce - Oceansize
Wind-up Toys - Capdown
White Two - SunnO)))
Every Red Heart Shines Toward The Red Sun - Red Sparowes (now)

Ooh, thanks for reminding me I need to get into Oceansize.

The voices in my head?

Seriously, whatever iTunes pops up next in the random play mode.

A mix of "Better Living Through Chemistry" and "You've Come A Long Way, Baby" by Fatboy Slim. Felt like a bit of childhood nostalgia. :p

Lomax's Southern Journey Volumes 12 (Georgia Sea Islands) and 08 (Velvet Voices). Mainly Christian spirituals and unaccompanied massed voice gospel performances made about 1960.

Muse

Bee Bee See, Ray-dee-oh too!
For a change. Nothing particularly interesting to report.

The other day the newsreader said "Badgers and drivers alike were at risk" in a suitably ominous tone. That was worth hearing.

I'm listening to the woman in the cubicle across from me. She must wake up talking. :rolleyes:

I listened to a song called "Track 03", followed by another one called "Track 01" and yet another known as "Track 04". However, my favourite so far is the following "Track 05", which is on right now.

I seriously need to start downloading my music instead of ripping it from library CDs....

No problem. If you'd asked me a week ago which album to get I'd have said Everyone Into Position (their second), but having listened to Effloresce many many many times in the last few days, I'd have to say go for that instead.

You make me feel so old.

And right now, iTunes has chosen some Herbie Hancock for me, so I'm grooving a bit.

The soundtracks for Katamari Damacy and We Love Katamari; right now listening to The Moon and the Prince.

Cool. Truth be told it'll probably be whichever one I come across first, though. :p

lol. Don't most media player programs download song info automatically now?

lol. Don't most media player programs download song info automatically now?

Apparently, mine doesn't. What I do is I go to the library, find a CD I like, copy its tracks to the computer, then return it. I don't have the money to buy real CDs and would only use them about once anyway; and I don't download music from the internet most of the time, due to laziness, so iTunes doesn't automatically get the track info for me.

Awesome. I just found my copy of the Pixies' Doolittle, which has been missing for about a year. Listening to that one now. :)

Hmmm. Try opening them individually in the windows media player, maybe?

Your CD-Ripper might be able to automagically get the info from the internets. I use one called CDex that does that very nicely, and you can set it to automagically catalogue the mp3s (or whatever) in the directories of your choice.

Be fair, I was listening to a collection of the greatest hits of Chuck Berry earlier. :p

Mad World - Gary Jules
Lord Give me a Sign - DMX
By the Way - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Good Enough - Evanescence
Fire and Rain - James Taylor

etc, etc

Hmmm. Try opening them individually in the windows media player, maybe?

That's a good idea; I'll try downloading Windows Media Player first....

Oh, I see. There's probably a lot of programs out there specifically for mac that would do it.

Har. I have his Sweet Little Rock and Roller EP on vinyl. Cost me a whole dollar.

Howard Stern. Every day Mon-Thurs 6 am to 11:30ish. Best part of my whole day.

this morning i listened to Cypress Hill quite a bit while getting ready :)

I used to listen to Cypress Hill a lot while getting stuff ready, but I doubt we're referring to the same thing. :p

lol no.... i was getting ready for work.

probably not a good idea to mix work and that up :p




incidentally, glitz and i are heading off to amsterdam in a few weeks for a short holiday/anniversay celebration :) :cool:

Congrats! :)

You should make it a priority. You won't regret it.

Heh, i'll do so. Only problem is that my album wishlist grows faster than my capacity to purchase new ones...argh. :P

I use one called CDex that does that very nicely, and you can set it to automagically catalogue the mp3s (or whatever) in the directories of your choice.Alternatively, use a proper audio player. Foobar2000, for example, can auto-tag your ass off. And it's a hell of a lot better than anything MS throws at people (and free too).

Anyway, according to my player, I've been listening to the following shit. Mind, the links don't reflect my playlist. They're just there for your pleasure.
Kaos Urbano (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r1WjqW61nE)
Bad Manners (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_N1qQZL550)
Desmond Dekker (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUroEF10W4I)
Discipline (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyPJbs9Hkok)
Los Fastidios (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hwi9Pvvnx1s)
The Templars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTZI06ZKDjY)
Broilers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dB0R3Ita-z8)
Madness (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wR2oZwhFgeE)
Washington Dead Cats (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvfMeyA4diw)
ZBier (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVN4mcTC5ec)
Perkele (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAjZN3vZW6g)

... And a few more I can't be bothered to find just now.

Madness (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wR2oZwhFgeE)


Oooh. I've been listening to a bit of Madness again for the first time in years - I never realised that Baggy Trousers was such a short song by pop standards - 2:46.

All I've listened to is lecturers. :(

Alternatively, use a proper audio player. Foobar2000, for example, can auto-tag your ass off. And it's a hell of a lot better than anything MS throws at people (and free too).

I've got so used to WinAmp it's hard to move. Think I tried Foobar2000 once, but its Search (compared to WinAmp's Jump) immediately turned me off.
Media Player Classic is good for video files.

Heh, i'll do so. Only problem is that my album wishlist grows faster than my capacity to purchase new ones...argh. :P

Who said anything about "purchase"? :p

I have been listening to my kids practice their instruments.....and also right now I am listening to them listen to their foreign language CD.

I haven't listened to anything today as yet, but I think I'll put on some Michael Tippett. 'A Child of Our Time' perhaps.

Have you ever considered that you might be raising your kids to be too super intellegent?

Have you ever considered that you might be raising your kids to be too super intellegent?

is there a such thing?

believe it or not I don't push any of this, I would be fine with them zoning out and reading all day, in fact, it would be a little bit quieter.

My girls seem to have taken me as a role model, and being that I am interested in like 10,000,000 different things and I like to learn.......I guess they picked it up. The difference being that I am finicky and they tend to stick to things (like their father does) so they will probably be more successful. I succeed at something and try something new, he tries something until he is successful, then he perfects it.

Get Born - JET
Origins of Symmetry - Muse
Showbiz - Muse
Language, Sex, Violence, Other? - Stereophonics

In celebration of the news that Rage Against The Machine have reformed (http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=entertainmentNews&storyID=2007-01-22T013225Z_01_N21404706_RTRUKOC_0_US-RAGE.xml) (admittedly just to play one festival, Coachella, but there's hope they might stick with it), I'm listening to The Battle of Los Angeles.

So far... My alarm clock...

(it's only 7:50 a.m here.)

Yeah, i'm not much of a Coltrane fan either.



:p

John or Robbie? Because if it's John, we might have to step outside...

Anyway, today I haven't listened to much except the sound of my new (well, it's actually pretty old, but new to me) GIANT TV thanks to 'free' listings on Craigslist. I have become a master scavenger.

But as of late I have been listening to Sex Mob's Solid Sender and a collection of random songs a very cool friend sent me.

never been to spain - three dog night
old fashioned love song - three dog night

I'm currently listening to Visitors from Dreams by dma sc, from the Darwinia soundtrack. I even ripped it from the game's data files myself.

That makes me infinitely geekier than all of you! Hah :p

Stuff that Pandora (http://www.pandora.com)threw at me, then snippets to the album "Beton Melancholie" (http://www.hiphopstore.ch/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=&products_id=9972), to which there is a video clip (http://www.bkanal.ch/mag/jukebox/nationmusic/15) (great music), and then I watched a funny music video (http://www.bkanal.ch/mag/jukebox/nationmusic/17) on the same website (music not as good, but nice clip).

Who said anything about "purchase"? :p

Fair point. ;)

Awesome! I haven't been listening to RATM much lately, but when I first got into music, they were my fave. Hopefully i'll get a chance to see them live. :)

John or Robbie? Because if it's John, we might have to step outside...

I've been listening to what ever the mall had playing.

Lately I've been listening to Pearl Jam, Semisonic and Third Eye Blind. Last week it was Collective Soul and Nine Inch Nails mostly.

The screams of the innocent whilst I cleanse the world of their filth.

And by that I mean Metallica.

Les Negresses Vertes - A l'affiche
Angelique Kidjo - Oremi
Chrirsty Moore - The time has come

I listened to some very nice Thrash Metal at my friend's place (courtesy of him and a friend of his) about 45 minutes ago... And that's about all that I've listened to today.

I can't say that's a bad thing, though.

So far, just Lisa Loeb's first three albums.

I listened to ...The Dandy Warhols Come Back Down by the Dandy Warhols and now I'm listening to a demo my bf put together.

My History teacher, my English teacher, my French teacher, pencils scratching on scantron sheets, the sound of teenage despair, my darling Duckie giggling while her crush flirts with her (and my voice saying, "Do you remember your boyfriend? You know, the guy you're dating?"), thousands of teenagers crammed into too small a space, my very persistent conciense, and now, Sophie B. Hawkin's "Damn, I wish I was your lover."

a diverse selection chosen by the shuffle function on my mp3 player. Cake was one of them, i like Cake, it was The Distance, my favourite song of theirs. also i think there was some chemical brothers although i don't remember the track, and a track off the FabricLive session that High Contrast did, and Queen, and Chase the devil by Max Romeo, there was a track by Basement Jaxx off Rooty too. something by John Lennon, some Happy Mondays, Klaxons, forgettable indy tracks, Roots Manuva, Captain, Shy FX, something off the Ram Trilogy CD i have i think it was Skirmish, there was bound to have been some Bob Marley playing at some point, there was a Sinatra track playing in the pub i was in at lunch time but i wasn't paying attention cuz i bashed my head on the bar. those are the ones i can remember, i spent about 5 hours in the library cafe today with music playing the whole time so there was a lot to remember, plus i wasn't paying much attention to the music with all the reading i had to do.

Voodoo Glow Skulls.

The album Firme.

Just finished listening to Clean as a Broke-Dick Dog by the Monkeywrench.
Currently listening to Double Nickels on the Dime by the Minutemen.

Been listening to Ashes of the Wake by Lamb of God.

Mainly I've been listening to the albums I bought yesterday:

"THRAK" by King Crimson
"Altars of Madness" by Morbid Angel

And these are some of the albums that have been in heavy rotation for this month:

"Lemuria/Sirius B" by Therion
"The Power to Believe" by King Crimson (in heavy rotation on my CD player since November, still not sick of it)
"In the Absence of Truth" by Isis
"The Sound of Perseverance" by Death
"Toxicity" by System of a Down
"Close to the Edge" by Yes

Midlake - The Trials Of Van Occupanther

Liz Phair - Whip-Smart

Queens Of The Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf



And also the cricket on the ABC.

Here Comes the King by X-ray Dog (Working for them would be interesting I reckon).

And also the cricket on the ABC.There's a cricket on the Anarchist Black Cross?

well if you go to a site called the writings of serge koslovski, which i doubt if i even spelled his name right, but if you know what i'm talking about, and fallow the links there to all the musicians and groups his page links to and listen to all of their free samples and fallow each of their links ... you'll get a general idea of what i listen to, when i'm listening to anything, other then when i'm listening to something on kvmr (kvmr.org). those and anime themes and other even more wonderful straingeness. music i've found from links from places linked to from odd instuments musium website and also the synth musium website. i really don't well keep track of everyplace i get to everyplace else from. but if i find something interesting i wan't to go back to and check out more of course i bookmark it and so i've got a bunch of NONcommercial webites bookmarked.

occasionaly i'll listen to npr's local jazz station too.

mostly i'm into ambient electronica, but with quite an ecclectic mix of other things thrown in, including japanese stuff, and not just j-pop, and other world beat straingeness. including celtic and pipe bands. and of course the folk music of the immaginary folk of fantasy and science fiction. and, and, and, ...

or in otherwords, just about everything you WON'T usualy hear on clearchannel.

=^^=
.../\...

There's a cricket on the Anarchist Black Cross?

I was listening to the New Zealand v England (http://content-aus.cricinfo.com/australia/engine/match/249237.html) cricket match, on ABC radio (http://abc.net.au/melbourne/).
