Kenny, do you play any instruments?
I've got a musical past. Played various instruments as a young kid. Still play a few today. Anyway, I'm in to all sorts of music: Soft or Heavy Metal - Gotta love technical stuff. I also like sectional music, changes in time, layers, etc. I can appreciate how it's all been put together, where as others might think it's too noisy/annoying. Hip-HopRap/RnB - just love a song with good bass. If it's catchy, I'll like it. I like rap, because you find some lyrical talent. Eg. I think Eminem and Bone Thugs & Harmony have some excellent lyrics. Listen to No Love - tells a story and honestly, I can't get over how good his verse is. The guy has natural flow better than anyone in the industry. Jazz - Easy listening. I've played a bucketload of it. Love the expression and tones you can create given an instrument and mood. Whether it's Charlie Parker or Michael Buble. Alternative/Electronic - It's different! Sometimes can be annoying (repetition of a basic riffs, etc) but I do like the way the synthesiser can potentially make something sound awesome. Instrumental - Yeah I like that. Doesn't matter what it is. Drums, clarinets, oboes, violin, sax, piano, guitar, sitar, whatever. Even traditional instruments. Again, I can appreciate the pieces they play as have done it myself. Indian/Bollywood - common, I'm Indian. It's only natural. (Although, yes, some of it is lame). But again, I like the structure & layers of some songs/music and the way it is written. All in all, I'll listen to anything - old or new. Last edited by RN318; 01-09-2012 at 06:06 PM.. |

What's playing in my car at the moment? This morning, the ACO with Richard Tognetti, the Mozart Violin Concertos. Also, Jacques Louissier's jazz interpretations of Handel. We saw the Woody Allan movie "Midnight in Paris" over Christmas, and that re-kindled my love for jazz manouche. I've found an American group doing their interpretation of Django Reinhardt/gypsy swing, called "Pearl Django". They swing like crazy and not a drum in sight.

As with all of Richard James's writing there are multiple layers to this. In the UK a "windowlicker" is a mentally retarded person. The literal translation from French for "window shopper" plays on he theme of the video where two guys are cruising for streetwalkers. The only lyrics of the song are "J'aime faire des croquettes au chien" .. or are they? The French Canadian pronunciation is not distinct. It could mean 'I like to make dog food and eat it" .. or it could mean "I like to engage in intimate relations with a dog". Pure awesome. Aphex Twin _Windowlicker_ (1999) N: I hope we find some motherfuckin' bitches soon man, nixxa I'm horny as a motherfucker nixxa, you know what I'm saying' nixxa? N2: I don't give a fuck homes! N: I don't give a fuck neither nixxa! Not if we gonna find us some bitches man. N2: I don't give a fuck! N: I'm - motherfucker - we need to find us some hoes up in this motherfucker, man - for real. You know what I'm .. nixxa, what the fuck is you slowing' down for nixxa? Drive this motherfucker, fool. Roll nixxa, damn! N2: Hey fuck you homes! N: We'll get nowhere man, driving like a … N2: Fuck you homes! N: … driving like a little bitch, man you ain't drivin' Miss Motherfuckin' Daisy nixxa, just roll nixxa, shit. I get tired of rollin' with your slow ass nixxa just roll man. Something nice there - Oh, there goes some bitches right there. Oh Hell yeah! nixxa let's roll. It's on motherfucker, yeah nixxa!

N2: Hey fuck you homes! N: nixxa quit slowing this motherfuckin' ride down, nixxa. What's wrong wit you fool? nixxa something wrong wit your motherfuckin' feet? Nixxa drive this motherfucker man just get the fuck to where we got to go nixxa. N2: I don't give a fuck homes! N: Damn. The fuck going on up in this bitch? Let me play my shit nixxer. This is my motherfuckin' tape up in this bitch. Shit. N2: I don't give a fuck! N: Hey shut the fuck up nixxa. Getting' on my motherfuckin' nerves nixxa. N: Oh shit! Hey, nixxa, hey!

Interesting thread Kenny. Are you vying for modern age rennaisance man status?
Even though I have a widely eclectic taste in music I am drawn in by Pop. One of my, among many many, favourites and one I never tire of hearing is "Ship of fools" by World Party. A song for all times it was written by Karl Wallinger, who is World Party pretty well on his own, and recorded in 1986. It is not without criticism from me in that it has an essentially negative theme and there is little in the song by way of inspiration for a redemption from our foolish ways except for an allusion to "the light of the world" which is probably a reference to Jesus. Not my scene BTW. For me the message is not so much prescient as it is der obvious to the sceptical and morose such as myself. Without banging on about what's wrong with everything it fits in with how I see man's dilemna - do we have a go and to hell with the consequences or settle and submit yourself to the mercy of the universe, Aborigine style? Well we've had a go and right fucked it up so.....next. Apart from that it's really about the music; the melody, the production and Karl's voice, which carries a sardonic or perhaps evangelical warning tone throughout the song. Love the piano played in kind of slow funk honky tonk. That piano observation may be grossly wrong as I am not strong on the technical or stylistic aspects of music. I am not particularly interested in what Karl is up to these days as the song stands on its' own and especially not in how he looks. I would hate to be held hostage to a snapshot in time. |

Raj no I don't, I dabbled with guitar and drums in my youth. And bass. Currently I don't even own an instrument.

Thanks Gazz. I'm just talking about music that interest me and curious to read/listen to music that interests others.

Mark Foster's hommage to disaffected American youth and their Second Amendment right to resolve adolescent angst definitively. For the grownups "kicks" are sports shoes. Kids with "pumped up" kicks means the cool kids at high school who wear the latest cool gear and (legend tells us) make all the other highschooler's lives miserable. What a charming little morality tale, complete with a stern message to the parents about their poor parenting skills. Foster The People _Pumped Up Kicks_ (2010) Robert's got a quick hand He'll look around the room he won't tell you his plan He's got a rolled cigarette Hanging out his mouth he's a cowboy kid Yeah found a six shooter gun In his Dad's closet with a box of fun things I don't even know what But he's coming for you yeah he's coming for you All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run better run Outrun my gun All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run better run Faster than my bullet Daddy works a long day He be coming home late he's coming home late And he's bringing me a surprise 'Cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice I've waited for a long time Yeah the sleight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger I reason with my cigarette And say your hair's on fire you must have lost your wits yeah

A generation Y girl's Friday night? Camille Jones _Creeps_ (2004) Make me take the ride Free drinks on tonight Take some have a feast Break me 'cause it keeps coming Down on either side Bleeding in my mind Waiting for the Creeps To kill my last beliefs So come on down to the Creeps Come on down to the Creeps Come on Holding back the key Fading sanity Blowing up my head Reaching for my always loving Partner in crime Soaking up my mind Filling up my glass I'm gone, at last Walking to the claim The Creeps calling my name They get me every time I'm bleeding and I'm getting We go split before my eyes Increase, double size Lease out my brain Am I insane?

Yeah it's the Brad Cooper of toons. Strong hook though, in years to come it will still be catchy.

Ah Madchester. As Ian Brown said in NME in December 1989: "We're the most important group in the world, because we've got the best songs and we haven't even begun to show our potential yet." The things you say when you're a 26 year old with his first record deal. Stone Roses _Fools Gold_ (1989) The gold road’s sure a long road Winds on through the hills for fifteen days The pack on my back is aching The straps seem to cut me like a knife I’m no clown I won’t back down I don’t need you to tell me what’s going down Down I’m standing alone I’m watching you all I’m seeing you sinking I’m standing alone You’re weighing the gold I’m watching you sinking Fool’s gold These boots were made for walking The Marquis de Sade don’t wear no boots like these Gold’s just around the corner Breakdown’s coming up round the bend Sometimes you have to try to get along dear I know the truth and I know what you’re thinking Down I’m standing alone I’m watching you all I’m seeing you sinking I’m standing alone You’re weighing the gold I’m watching you sinking Fool’s gold

Who needs heroin when you've got Hope to ease all the pain away? Mazzy Sar _Happy_ (1996) Field of light They hold me inside Count my stars They’re all lucky in the sky There’s a time When you go off the light And all my things Look like someone else’s memories Cold outside Burns a great big hole in my heart I just wait till you’re happy And your smile makes it bright It makes it bright Sleep inside Ocean has miles It shimmers and it glows For some people I know it shines I know it shines ... Stay inside Don’t the colors make you blind They hold me inside Count my stars Let them shine I know they shine ...
