Music that sounds good

[supermaxx123 10+ year member]

Just a thread to see what you guys think good music is.

I personally dont listen to the radio, boring and annoying music that i hear coming out of everywhere car. I have heard some songs i listen to on the radio but only a couple.

I like bass like most people here but not when its the same pretty much throughout the whole song, YET! i do have some songs like that because sometimes its just fun, but to me gets old real quick.

What do you guys listen to and a song or 2 you would recommend,

Im not looking for bass heavy songs, more like every instrument heavy.

Artist and a song I would recommend to someone with bass.

I listen to: alternative/pop, indie/pop, indie/alternative, some hip-hop, hard core metal, limited rock, old rock n roll(1950's, 60's) lots of acoustic music by various bands... stuff like that.

Some music does have repeated bass but not the overpowering kind.

Some of my songs:

French kicks- abandon (very good and low real bass, lots of guitar reverb)

The strokes- 12:51(a good song with pretty much no bass)

regina spektor- human of the year(great vocals and piano)

The shins- spilt needles (love the high hat throughout the song)

the devel wears prada - goats on a boat (2 bass parts that sound like high to low bass sweep)

flaming lips- a spoonful weighs a ton (A surprise when the bass and distorted guitar come in!)

just want to see what everyone is into, I am very open minded when it comes to music...

Try non-commercial radio - college, community. Much more musical variety.

Right now the three CD's I have in rotation are Zeppelin's Greatest Hits, Dark Side of the Moon, and Saul Williams' self titled album...maybe a little BlackStar mixed in at times.

theres your problem

you need a CD, not a burned cd or a mix tape

cd from the store

I bought basment jaxx -scars on itunes and thought it sounded nice though the ipod

I bought the CD and its much cleaner, the lower bass is much much cleaner and doesnt sound muddy

The best lyrics are definately Souja Boy. Crank Dat Soulja Boy is right there with Tupac on the lyrical progression.

Another song with great meaningful lyrics:

Soulja Boy Tellem

 

The dance floor silly

The ladies gon feel me

The fellas in the back and they twissin up a philly

 

Get silly(8x)

 

The dance floor silly

The ladies gon feel me

The fellas in the back and they twissin up a philly

(2x)

 

My chain too silly

My wrist too silly

The girls throw me dish cuz my rims big billion

My ride too silly

I ride too silly

We for fantastic cuz I got a dillion

Cuz now I'm I'm worth a million

Forget a rubberband cuz you can't put a rubberband around a billion

I be wildin on a island somewhere just like gilligan

Drillin who like a who like a dentist at the den like villerann

I ba ba ba I'm da man girlfriend

I'm da reason why you wanna lose ya man girlfriend

I'm calm like da sea

I blow like the wind

And now that I'm straight I'm bout to act a fool again

 

Get silly(8x)

 

The dance floor silly

The ladies gon feel me

The fellas in the back and they twissin up a philly

(2x)

 

My shades too silly cuz they made by cavalli

Jays so excited you can't find em lil buddy

I'm not nick cannon but I'm wildin out clubbin

Watchin everybody jockin while I'm poppin sumthin bubbly

 

Poppin sumthin bubbly

I'm tryna do it big

Da boy from the A

I'm tryna represent

Dem haters in my way

I play this game to win

 

Watch me take em to the ally knock em all off like some cans

Drop drop drop imma sell like silly

Cuz evrybody dancin and everybody feel me

With stack in my jeans just like my name was billy

While I'm jockin on you haters

Just like a pop-a-wheelie

 

Get silly(8x)

For some good Hip-Hop, you should definately check out:

Talib Kweli

Mos Def

Nas

Lupe Fiasco

The Cool Kids

Kid Cudi

Gym Class Heroes (don't base them on their wack singles, they make some pretty good hiphop music. Their instrumentals are all band played as opposed to the usual Fruity loops digital type shit.)

 

[djazmatic 10+ year member]

Oh yeah.. also check out both albums by "Statik Selektah" for a good compilation of hip hop tracks by different artists.
