JacksonElmore 69 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Except for a few occasions, I rarely meet people who really invest time in analyzing film scores like i do. It consumes more time than i think, but i still listen to a lot of other genres of music. So i'm wondering, what else do you guys listen to? I am into a lot of rock, like pink floyd and zepplin but i also kinda like some old school hip hop and shit like that. I'v in the past liked some ambient artists like william baskinski, and "earth." Btw, i feel like this might be a repeat thread and if so, my bad...I haven't seen this question asked before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,683 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I've been discovering a lot of random new music on Spotify lately, but no particular genre, and not enough to find new fandom. My primary non-soundtrack artists (I pay more attention to their new releases than most film composers) are Ludovico Einaudi, Mimi Page, Lorde and Lana Del Rey. I also listen to a lot of production music that I've discovered during my travels to locate music from various TV shows. JacksonElmore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon McBride 113 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I love love love love love the Aquabats. They're this 90's ska band with their own mythology and stuff. They have the most high energy shows ever. Around the turn of the century they turned into this new wave/punk band. Hard to explain. In 2012 they made their own television show. Great tv show. If I'm not listening to the Aquabats, I'll listen to new wave or the Beatles or Queen or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,490 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Ooooh, where to start? It's probably easier for me to list the things I DON'T care for. But some favourite genres include: old-school rock'n'roll (from Elvis to Creedence) prog rock (mostly 70s, but also some 80s) psychedelia symphonic rock art rock 80s synthpop electronica pioneers goa/psytrance ambient house ...in fact, most electronica in general classical (in all forms and shapes -- from medieval lute music to 19th century programmatic music to contemporary modernism) certain types of jazz musicals (mostly contemporary or Disney) 60s surf and pop music world music post-rock old-school hip hop (don't like the newer stuff) etc. As I said, easier to list things I don't like -- like grunge, 80s and 90s indiepop, punk, most country music, contemporary R&B and "chart" hits....

Bilbo 3,709 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Indie I guess. Post punk stuff. Most of what I listen to comes from the north west of England. Liverpool (Beatles), Manchester (oasis, stone roses, joy division, smiths), Wigan (the verve). But also more classic rock things like Led Zep or whatever and folky stuff like Dylan and Young. Mostly British stuff with notable exceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,480 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I dont't like particular genres. I love some artists, I would say, regardless of the genre of music they do. My top 3 are Charles Aznavour, Roy Orbison and John Williams. Then it goes from J.S. Bach to Pink Floyd passing by Frank Sinatra, Mika and Joe Dassin. Since about 10 years, I listen a lot of classical music, a passion that started when I was a teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do actually, although it's got nothing to do with my username (that's just a Simpsons reference). There was some truly amazing music to come out of disco in the late-70s. The first 3 Chic albums especially are about as great as pop music can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Jazz (mainly free jazz and ragtime), contemporary folk (usually Canadian), classical/art music, and quite a bit of metal (mainly death and thrash). Some country and classical rock, but I'm more particular in those areas than in other genres. As for "ambient" as its own genre... DRONE METAL. Sunn O))) and Nadja are my go-to "working" music.
