I dont think that anyone can say “a little bit of EVERYthing”

I like music that is musical. The music must demonstrate accomplished skills by the musicians that are more than just knowledge of how to use a synthesizer and a beatbox. If the music involves singing it is nice if the singer can actually sing. Finally the music must be recorded and mastered with full fidelity and careful attention to the nuances in the music.

As a consequence I don’t like much of what now passes as music.

Dream Theater. :slight_smile:

Haha, I like music that’s musical but my definiton of musical is totally different from yours.
I want a sax player who squeeks his/her way through ballads, a singer who always manages to sing a half-step away from the melody and a pianist who might as well has never even seen a keyboard before. I like the “raw” pure and true sound.
Everything else is pop music. No emotion.

I like:
free-jazz,
avant-garde jazz,
noise-jazz,
avant-folk,
freak-folk,
avant-garde classical,
avant-rock,
noise-rock,
avant-metal,
anything microtonal,
anything twelve tone
and I also consider the “noise” on the street, in the wild and the bullshit coming out of the white-house music.

Interesting, I never liked Dream Theater.

I love LTE, and they had all the people from the Dream Theater in it, except for the bassist and the singer. Oh, and that’s one thing about Dream Theater - the singer is shit. And their songs are strange. They’ve got some really good musical stuff, but they always manage to ruin it somehow, at least for me.

That’s probably just my opinion, though, I know a lot of people that love Dream Theater.

They have some good songs, though, sure. But most of their stuff I just can’t listen to for too long.

You should have me in your band.

I can do all three of those. Even all three at the same time, if I’m in the mood.

So pretty much, if they know how to play their instruments correctly, you don’t like it?

Brendon, not to be an ass, but if you expect people to take the time to answer your post you should take the time to write it up properly. The text-speak shows a total lack of respect for your readers and is annoying to try to read. you sound like an idiot when you write that way.

Not completely different. I need music that has emotion too.

I don’t enjoy bands like Guns N’Roses cause the emotion is processed out of the music in their quest for that perfect perfection sound. Same with Linkin Park. Absolute perfection and over-engineering removes the music from the music. The music is no longer interesting to listen to.

You’re crazy!!! Listen to Civil War. November Rain! Paradise City! How can you say emotion’s been processed out?!

Next thing you’ll be saying is Pink Floyd’s all electronic effects and studio production tricks and no feelings…

:angry: <----- I’m on to you!

Well, I like listening to people with a formal musical training as well. I was being a bit extreme with that post but you kinda get my idea. I’ve been studying piano for 10 years but when I play in my bands, I try to make it sound like a gorilla who has recently aquired a piano through whatever means. They’re not important.
There’s no “incorrect” way to play an instrument in my book.

I like music that’s good.

I like Jimi Hendrix, but Jimmi Hendrix is lame.

I prefer bad music.

I had this very discussion with a friend of mine today. We spent an hour going through my music collection, and he concluded that I like crazy music.

I’ve got a disproportionate amount of electronica (none of which is techno) and in the past year or so I’ve started listening to more independent artists through downloading free MP3s from the grand internets.

Here are some of the artists I have in my collection (in alphabetical order): Apocalyptica, Bonobo, Cake, Daft Punk, Futuristic Sex Robotz, Gorillaz, Haddaway, Infected Mushroom, Jefferson Airplane, Kronos Quartet, LCD Soundsystem, Mogwai, Optimus Rhyme, Paul Oakenfold, Röyksopp, Scatman John, Shpongle, Sigur Rós, Supertramp, Tenacious D, The Beatles, The White Stripes, Tryo, Weird Al.

Right now I’m listening to Gorillaz’ “Rockit”.

I’ve stopped trying to figure out what it all means.

wat r u saying i tipe bad? cus ur da frst 2 say dat

Guns N’Roses songs do nothing for me. I listen and it is just not interesting. It feels like the music is constrained by the perfection. Every note is exactly right. The rhythm and tempo never wavers. Nothing is spontaneous. It becomes sterile.

I get the same sort of feeling with Mozart. Every note is exactly right. You listen and you instinctively know where the music is going to go. No note will surprise you. It is not interesting to listen to.

Pink Floyd is not constrained by the electronic effects and studio production tricks. The music flows and becomes alive. The rhythm and tempo are free to wander. The rhythm is all human and has no artificial precision.

Music needs some imprecision. It needs that human element. Too much processing and perfection and you lose that.

I have to disagree with you there, JC. I love GNR. I think that overprocessing so that all the songs sound the same is bad, yes, but I don’t think GNR does that. Don’t Cry, Paradise City, Welcome to the Jungle, and November Rain all sound different, and all sound good.

One of the things I like most about them is that most of their rock songs are extremely simple (the intro to Welcome to the Jungle is actually quite simple, it’s just put through a delay pedal, and the main riff is five easy notes), yet they sound very, for lack of a better word, raw. They don’t sound sterile at all to me…if anything, their songs are more alive to me because they don’t require a beat to rock. There are songs (For Whom the Bell Tolls comes to mind) where the only beat comes from an actual bass drum, or a bass guitar, or something that is loud, constant, and just there. What I like about GNR is that most of their songs don’t have that, but it’s still more raw than most other bands.

But hey, to each his own. I like Mozart too (I just finished learning how to play Turkish March on guitar, and I’m working on Eine Klein Nachtmusik right now). Fun stuff.
