Music Tastes

[IamTheTest]

If you want to get into Jazz Id recommend Wynton Marsalles. He is one of the 4 best trumpet players of all time, and the only one that is still breathing. I had the opprotunity to see him live in Akron once and it blew my mind. He is essential for a jazz collection.

[*]Tenacious D: Tribute to the Greatest Song in the World

Now _that's_ gaming music.

 

[RithTheAwakener]

I absolutely love trance and techno. Vocal trance, reg trance, classical, hard trance... just not house. My most favorite site in the world (which plays streaming techno 24/7) is
www.digitallyimported.com

Favorite DJs/groups are
ATB
BT
Armin Van Buuren
Tiesto
Darude
djGT
Project C
Paul Van Dyk
Paul Oakenfold (older stuff)

There is barely any Rap or Hiphop i like, simply because the lyrics are basic. The only good rap/hiphop group ive heard is Jedi Mind Tricks.
I liked the rock n roll of the 90's (Pearl Jam, old Green Day, etc) but i hate the stuff they play now (new Green Day, anything on MTV) ie: emo music.

Trance for life.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

I like a lot of 80s music, like Monster Ballads and Big Hair music. I also enjoy listening to techno (The Immortals Mortal Kombat, Eiffel 65) and movie/play soundtracks. I am currently listening to Cats, Phantom of the Opera and The Man of La Mancha (thanks to Quantum Leap [Catch a Falling Star]).

 

[Panthanas]

More often than not I listen to some type of metal. I do listen to other "types" of music, although I have to say that country and hip hop/rap grates on my nerves, but every once in a while there are songs in those genres that I like (don't tell anyone I said that ).

Nobody has mentioned my favorite music - FILK!

The only song I can think of that I like that I know for certain would be considered "filk" is "The Death of Optimus Prime" by Mr. McFeeley. It's kind of a western-style requiem for old Big Bot.

There's some other stuff that's close, too, but I have reasons for doubting you'd consider it filk:
Steven Cavanaugh does filkish covers of older songs, with the lyrics rewritten to be about Star Wars - like "Darth Maul" to the tune of "When You Say Nothing At All", originally by Keith Whitley - but that may be more parody than filk.
Nitocris performed the song "Darkside" for a Star Wars fan film about Mara Jade, but while incredibly good, its just a little heavy to be what I generally think of as filk.
And Bentframe is a rap group (yes, I know what you said about rap) that has done a few original raps about Star Wars, and one about the Chipmunks - maybe not filk, but definitely fun, and sci-fi/pop culture related.

.

Question, any idea where you can find said fan film for viewing?

Dude, I know tons of people who don't like the Beatles, me being one of them. Then again, I know a ton of people who are so obsessed with the Beatles it is scary, so maybe we all even each other out.
