I could name bands forever but here's what I could think of off the top of my head.

Flaming lips are pretty damn good. I like Yoshimi battles the pink robots

I'm a big fan of Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Devin Townsend, Hoopy frood, Riverside, TRIPSWITCH (my favourite ) Ott, Abakus, Psypilot (best psy trance ever)... there's a lot. I'm not a favourite band kind of guy... it's usually what I'm listening to at the time but the above bands/artists are the ones that seem to be standing the test of time.

shpongle and most of simon posford, the mars volta, bluetech, ott, hendrix, peter green,...shpongle is what i'm into at the moment,it has been said before but they're mind-blowing!!

Dead Can Dance when I want to commune with Spirit.

Pink Floyd when I want to know how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Ozric Tentacles and Amon Tobin for the deepest psychedelia and the greatest brain-fuck possible.

Banco de Gaia for beauty and elegance.

Works of Simon Posford and similar artists (Ott, Younger Brother, Capsula, Carbon Based Lifeforms, etc.) for delicious artificial food.

Silence (Pete Namlook's project) when I'm out in space. Biosphere's Substrata when that space has dark undertones.

Depeche Mode's Songs of Faith and Devotion album because it touches me in places nothing else does.

Elend, early albums of The Cure (Pornography, Faith) and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds when I get depressed or angry at the world.

My requirements change all the time, but lately I pretty much survive on an auditory diet of Tom Waits, Radiohead, Johnny Cash and Jeff Buckley.

Folk music, Chilled music, Blind Melon, Jack Johnson, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Bob Marley, Bat For Lashes, Rasta Music, Dub, Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Alexi Murdoch, The Beatles, Andrew Bird, Led Zeppelin, Tracy Chapman, Coldplay, Ks Choice, Radiohead, DJ Krush, Finley Quaye, Hemi-Sync, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Peter Tosh, Juno Reactor, Neil Young, Tipper, Anahata, Psy Dub, A lot of folk music from the 60s, Old School Sublime... Just to name a few...

Do You Realize?

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

I hate dubstep, it all sounds the bloody same!

I love drum and bass and techno, granted they are similiar but dubstep just annoys me. Like lots of bands too, death to dubstep! :evil:

Finally someone mentions this band! DCD is pure magic. They are (were) also from the first bands to create and vastly enlarge the audience of ethnic/cultural music. Most bands who play things like celtic/folk/neofolk/medieval/arabian middle east ethnic/shamanic/native american/australian/whatever music come second to dcd.


Elend sucks for many reasons, but few bands can beat The Cure and Nick cave.

I LOVE Lisa Gerards voice. The "Serpents egg" album is music to ascend to



I really like "disintegration" "kiss me kiss me kiss me" and "bloodflowers"

I had my first kiss worth remembering with "plain song" in the background. Awesome

4:13 Dream, the most recent album is a great listen for me too!

No ones mentioned Pink Floyd so i think i will especially the early stuff with Syd Barrett. My fav music has to be techno though, it has so much potential! Richie Hawtin, Slam to name just a oouple. I like all styles of music as long as its good

Love them both... <3

You've obviously never listened to good dub-step. D&B sounds like someone ate a half gram of molly and started playing with a drum machine. Its ok but its hard to dance that fast. Dub-Step is Bass heavy, if you don't like heavy bass and actually feeling the music instead of just hearing it then it's not for you. It spawned from Hip-Hop and Two-Step, I'm from the hood parts of St Louis so everyone listens to Hip-Hop so my natural answer was rip the black guy out crank the bass and make it sound fucking crazy as shit, then you've got Dub-Step. It'll shake everyone's car within a 20 foot radius.

Tool is awesome, I used to listen to Tool when I was surfing every weekend. Totally legend...


Much Peace and Happiness
