hey ive only had my job for 4 days and im already getting sick of the music on my ipod shuffle. can you reccomend me a new song or artist to check out?
You bet I can. I don't know what kind of music you're into, though. But here's some I listen to...
Older Stuff:
Electric Lights Orchestra Sting -- specifically the album The Dream of the Blue Turtles or their song "Fragile" The Dave Brubeck Quartet (Jazz music) Original Broadway Cast of Ragtime Three Dog Night - "Eli's Coming"
Newer Stuff:
The Motorcycle Diaries Soundtrack "Let the Light Shine In" by Darren Tate (Trance music) The Postal Service R.E.M.'s latest album, "Around the Sun" The Red Violin Soundtrack
Other, more tangential stuff:
Värttinä, a Finnish vocal group. A lot of folk music. The Vince Guaraldi Trio - Jazz; much of it done for Charles Schultz's Peanuts A great deal of remixed video game music from http://www.ocremix.org/ and http://www.vgmix.com
same as jethro, i dont know what you listen to, but here are the songs i've been obsessing over lately
The Velvet Underground- Take a Walk on the Wild Side (old stuff, obviously) Tegan & Sara- Where Does the Good Go? (my whiny fix) Aesop Rock- Float (good rap) Skalpel- Break In (Nu Jazz) Gnarls Barkley- Smiley Faces (i'm sure you've been hearing "crazy" all the time... i like this one better) Ugly Cassanova- Parasites (Isaac Brock from Modest Mouse) Eyedea and Abilities- Now (good rappy hip hoppy scratchy stuff) Art Blakey- Moanin' (good jazz for new listeners) Immortal Technique- Freedom of Speech (rapping about not needing a label...very eloquent)
I guess that's all I can offer you at the moment. think about it.
"new skin" or "china" by the celebration the arcade fire "this is the way" by devendra banhart "bucky done gun" and "galang" by m.i.a. "cities" and "this must be the place" by the talking heads and check out q and not u, too
i dont know if youve heard of any of them or all of them, but thats what music i enjoy the most at present. oh and "cybele's reverie" by stereo lab.
hey i came across this band D.N.A. and apparently blonde redhead got their name from their song...blonde redhead.
