What's that sound?
 

Alright, i am quite bored right now. So let's post what you are listening to then

Right now my winamp is blasting some swedish 80ies pop-music in the form of "Freestyle - Fantasi".

Per Gessle from Roxette's old band (which doesn't make it any better however i've got some good memories from this tune.. hehe)

Err - alright then; winamp changed from that tune to

"Imperiet - M?rk hur v?r skugga" (which was originally written by Carl Michael Bellman sometime during 17th centuary), even if this tune has been done in many versions; Th?str?m (who started bands like; "Ebba Gr?n", "Peace, Love & Pitbulls" and "Imperiet" duh!) has done the best version yet (and still he says; it's the worst version and i just wished i never did that one).

My father played this tune many times for me when I was little, so this is really special for me. Infact when I used to sing this alot when I was younger and got into many fights with other kids that wanted to sing 'childsongs'.

This is probably a song that Juho would love (even if it's in swedish h?h

I am still very bored so i'll just spam abit more in this thread.

Winamp is blastin' sweden's best prog. rock/alt. rock-group "National Teatern". This I am sure that Juho would love. (and the rest of you aswell - even if you'd probably understand nothing about the lyrics)

The whole album is recorded in a apartment in a suburb to Stockholm which was / still is 'famous' for be a quite rough area (everyone in Sweden, will know what suburb it would be if i would mention the name), however i never felt more safe than when I was living there.

Argh! I wanna do something. Post something intresting

Right now, iTunes is playing Jeff Buckley-Grace. Bloody amazing song!!! One of my all time favorites I would have to say. Actually, I am going to put this in my:

Jase Top 10 list

Not sure exactly where in the top ten it will reside, somewhere in between Mazzy Star- fade into you and Lou Reed - Perfect day

So now a new question to everyone: Whats your top 10?????

Lou Reed - Perfect day. Err - My Winamp as we speak playing this.

That tune is really great.

I gotta get back to you on that Top 10 list

peace orchestra - symphony.

soothing 8)

Spooky 8O

seems to be a lot of psychic connection going down in this forum 8O

What i meant was "My winamp is playing this track as we speak"

That's for sure. We are one soul on this forum.

Np. King Diamond - Voodoo

Classic! Brilliant track. My favourite King Diamond Track.

This is very much the topic I put up some time ago about the people's favourite tracks. I'll go find some of the tracks mentioned here and give them a listen.

Np. Dimmu Borgir - Architecture of A Genocidal Nature

Norwegian "un-tr00" black metal. Very nice. One can only admire the skill of the drummers on this genre.

NP: Pink Floyd - Wish you were here. Beutiful, just beutiful.

After that, winamp is set to play Pink Floyd - Shine on you crazy diamond.

For some reason, many of my friends aswell as my parents always thought that this track fits me pretty well

I changed to playlist to: Absoluuttinen Nollapiste - Pyh? nynny.

Even if i can't understand the lyrics i still enjoy this track really much.

Very good choices, very good. And it's even progressive, which means it's good. Hoho.

Np. Weather Report - Barbary Coast

The Jaco Pastorius touch... Why all the good musicians die too young.

Again a good choice... But hey! That's a track I sent.

Np. Op:l Bastards - Scorpius

Finnish retro electro. I like it a lot. Nice 100% analog soundscape.

I've been listening to Cat empire alot recently...

Hehehe, this guy is/was a funny bastard. I remember listening years back.

EDIT: Didn't think too much of the music though. :wink:

He is. Made a new album just some time ago.

NP: Ani di Franco - Tis of thee

NP: Bob Dylan - Blowin' in the wind

Im listening to some PetShopBoys (Opportunities) and DepecheMode (various). Ive just bought the music DVD 'Live at Pacadena 1988....ah sweet! I can see all their synths on stage.

DS

Vildsvin - Saga utan lyckligt slut, swedish punk

vince jones - heres to the miracles

the real definition of smooth :wink:

before that i was listening to dead can dance - spirit chaser. one of my old favs that i havent listened to for ages :D

NP: Bone Thugs n Harmony - Tha Crossroads

and before that; Warren G - Regulate

NP: Adolphsson och Falk - Mer jul (Swedish synthpop group).

Loads and loads of minimoog (and several other moogs aswell), mono/poly, Prophet-5, pro-one, tr-808.

Great music.. Great x-mas tune

Np: Radiohead-Hail to the thief (the whole album is spectacular, infact, everything by radiohead is just amazing..)

Radiohead is weird band. I just can't find anything good in it. It's just bloody depressive music and makes me feed bad. I'd probably would shoot myself if I'd have to listen to Radiohead for an hour or more. Some people love it and some hate it.

The Nice - Happy Freuds

Late 60's vintage Emerson.

Last: Liekki - Korppi

Finnish retro rock with Jethro Tull'ish sound. Nice.

you mean to say Juho that radioheads music does not possess ONE quality which you would think worthwhile mentioning?

I understand what you are saying about the mood that their music creates - but the purpose of good art is to make you feel or think something.... you say this music makes you so depressed you want to kill yourself - well, i think it made you feel something (theres one good thing :wink: )

Juho is right to an extent, as you said Blay.....alot of Radioheads music is a bit hard to swallow for some, but there are some really beautiful songs they have made....just gorgeous. They create deep atmosphere and layered soundscapes, AND, they go against the mainstream, manage to top album charts, and make millions!!!!!!

Living the dream mate ;)

I only wish I were there, wierd music or not

id give up my air-guitar and reconsider my career as an air-roadie if these guys would let me work for them (and maybe one day work my way up to air-engineer)

:wink:

Street Spirit (Fade out) and Creep is really good; those are the only tunes i really can listen to from Radiohead

i saw an interview with radiohead once where they said that creep is their least favourite song of all their material - everyone just jumped on it and it became a hit, and now they are more than sick of listening to it purely because it lacks the musical inspiration of a lot of their other pieces.

i must say in some of radioheads songs i get the feeling tom didnt get enough breast milk as a baby and is still crying about it :cry:

:wink:

Bwhahaha - yes, maybe..!

I pitty the fool that didn't get enough breastmilk as a baby

I prefer the more abstract soundscape stuff...the newer stuff, with all the electronica elements.....and some of the dreary, kill yourself stuff is great too. Im a real sucker for a song that brings tears to my eyes, and alot of Radiohead stuff does it for me....songs that give an insight into ones soul and inner workings of their twisted mind, thoughts, and desires.......

I hate to be cliched and cheesy, but with alot of Radiohead stuff, you really can feel immense emotion. hate, lonliness, despair....it's fucking great :)

And nothing for me to listen to in other words. hehe

Last summer I were driving to Turku with few friends and in one point someone inserted OK Comptuer into the CD player. During few minutes everyone were silent and after that everyone collectively agreed to remove OK Computer from the players. ?hih. We would probably have had a car accident without that removal.

Np. Jarkko Martikainen - Kaikki me kuolemme pian

Martikainen's - a vocalist of YUP - solo album stuff. Very nice acosutic tracks.

*Gasp!* Thats a fuckin amazing album.......one of my faves :)

The song 'Paranoid Android', and 'Karma Police'....classics!!!!! Im gonna put it on now.....brb

Np: Radiohead, OK Computer

i struggle to see how that is being cheesy jase.
a piece of anything - be it music/painting/sculpture - is worthless (and is not art as such) unless it makes you feel or think something.

the more you feel or the more you think - the better the piece :wink:

Queen - Under Pressure.

'queen under pressure'.
that could be your avatar name 303 :lol:

Ahahahaha - Be careful or i'll see that you'll get that as your personalized name.. Remember i got the powerstick around here
