What music are you all listening too?

« on: Saturday 06 January, 2007 »

OK..this is definitely more 'chat' than Raw but...I asked the question on another forum and discovered The Cat Empire (fantabulous!) and Lior...(niiice)

Have been a bit "out of touch" with the music scene since Little Ones came along (eldest is now 5!) so it's nice to revamp the CD collection ( or the mp3 collection!)

So I thought I'd ask the RP folk...any recommendations?

I must add my all time favourite album is still Kate Bush "The Kick Inside"...does that make me an old hippy?? lol!

Music is always a welcome topic for me. It is one of my favourite things...but I am not a 'band-goer' just someone who has a history of music appreciation - piano/keyboards and some composition. I really felt like some music this arvo after being in the Bris CBD/park playgrounds all morning so my 3 year old boy, Saasha, agreed that some 'boom boom' music would be the go. So,we are listening to a Chicane CD right now and drinking a pint of carrot juice. They go very well together. Mainly I like trance because the harmonies and repetition kind of 'meditate me' but I love a lot of classical also. I don't know anyone else who listens to classical but I am sure they do exist. And balmy Brissy weekends would not be complete without chill-out style CDs to relax to. Incidentally, Steve Arlin states in his book about body building on a raw food diet (RAW POWER), that he prefers heavy metal. I never would have thought the two would go together and was suprised to read that - There, I made my reply about raw foods after all.

Almost anything goes, depending on the mood. Anything (from one has two children aged 2 and 5) from Totally Gourdgeous to Pearl Jam, Youssou N'dour to Jebediah, Shooglenifty to Foo Fighters and plenty in between, including Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Stones, Dylan, Led Zepp, and lots else. Used to be really into Aus stuff (and still am) but don't get out so much to check out live stuff except some local shows and the Cygnet Folk Festival, which is only days away. Always open to new experiences....

Mostly chill out these days...

Groove Armada, Tim/Neil Finn, Sarah Blasko, Air, Incubus, Missy HIggins, Tosca, Zero7, and a bit of old Drum&bass (Roni Size etc) thrown in occasionally when on the rebounder!

The last song I had a severe crush on was Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, but that was before I recently discovered Paolo Nutini.

Signed to Atlantic at only 18 years old, he released his debut album (These Streets) last year at the tender age of 19. He's Scottish.

Well..he's got me ! (so to speak!) Thanks missgiggles...niiiice

Brett - there's nothing 'yawny' about listening to what you love. cheesy

Was that song you posted an example of avante guarde Australian Jazz? If so....gosh!

I think Jazz, I think Birdland (the club and the store). I wouldn't even pick that song as Jazz. It reminded me of Killing Heidi for some reason - the vocal perhaps was reminiscent of Ella Hooper. That shows you what I know! cheesy

Someone who's heard of Birdland - wow... I'm impressed. Actually I say "avante garde" but what I really mean is "post modern"... I just don't like to sound all pedantic and hoity toity. Ooops, I've blown my cover.

That recording is my daughter's 3 piece all girl band, when she was 17.. I don't know why I posted it.

I haven't listened to anything for ages. Even my mp3 player has flat batteries, its so sad. I am having problems with my ears and as I love loud music I thought I would give my ears a rest.

Hey I love classical music too and everything else in between. I love the current European composers as well as loving Bach melodies.

Herr Bach was the ultimate throw away composer in his day. He would write a new Sunday service and then just toss it aside and write a new one for the next week. I also love some of Mozart's operas too.

Hey Pea I sang in a Community Choir in Hobart and we sang with a South American group that used to sing at Salamanca Markets each week. I loved singing with that group as we sang the national music of so many nations. Originally the choir was as offshoot of an African Music workshop held in Hobart, when it finished the group Sisongke emerged to continue singing the same sort of music.

Miss Giggles I searched all over the place trying to find EBTG and the track you said was sublime without any success.
