Looking for more music.
Orchestra's are good, like those. Moby is good. Elegia by New Order is my current favourite song. The short film More by Mark Osbourne is where I heard it, truly riveting video if you watch it a few times (can be seen on the Youtube). I'm a pretty big fan of Enigma. A lot of Mike Oldfield's works (generally the early and later stuff. Some of the middle albums are good.). Jay-Z, Red Hot Chili Peppers, some forms of rap (intense, but not unnecessarily vulgar. Instrumentals/beats play a key role as well as riveting lyrics.), Phil Colins, John Mayer. Heavier stuff such as Nightwish, Within Temptation. Quite a fan of female vocals no matter the genre. Paul Oakenfold, other trance artists but I haven't really gotten into the genre as much.
Also, anyone a fan of the sub-genre Dark Ambient? I have just started listening to different artists tonight and it is quite intense. However, I am also looking for more music with an ambient like intro, building up an "intense" ending. Not necessarily ear-drum bursting loud, but packed with raw emotion.
Heh, as you can see I have a vast array of musical preferences and will try pretty much anything. Except most country. No one REALLY like country besides Johnny Cash.
Right now, I am listening to all my music on my computer in .flac or 320kbps MP3's if there isn't a hard copy retail version of an album. Headphones are Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's plugged into a dedicated sound card. I will be purchasing Sennheiser IE8's and a 32GB iPod Touch 3rd Gen within a week, so my collection will become ALAC when necessary. Not sure if any of this changes your potential recommendations of music.
Anyways, thank you in advance, and to all a goodnight. Or morning. Seems to be a vast array of people on these forums. I guess head-fi doesn't care what currency is in your wallet, as long as it's not there by the time you go to bed.
