>>9508898

What kind of classical music do you guys listen to?

everything except country and rap

>electronic based music

That's not very specific, and no, you probably aren't willing to enjoy *any* kind of electronic music.

Liquid dnb is a favorite. Otherwise dnb remixes.

Prog rock and metal. People find it strange that I listen to both Mastodon and Mars Volta/Anathema, like they don't go together. Then again it's unhealthy to listen to what /mu/ says.

Mostly metal. Everything from folk to black.

Formerly industrial, noise and dark ambient, now mostly doujin rave hardcore and electronic pop.

Here something I normally listen to. Anything like this really.

http://soundcloud.com/shingodj/shingo-dj-dubstep-shit-wip

>>9508925

Those two genres were like all /mu/ even listened to up until being overrun with shitty electro-house and pop music a few years ago.

>>9508953
Dubstep. Really now...

I listen to electronic based music as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8u6EodZseg

Mostly electro house.

Jazzhop, piano, jazz, IDM, Glitch, Downtempo

etcetc

Electric music and ambient.
I don't actively seek for new artists to listen to, though. And I usually only enjoy 3-4 songs per album or artist.

>>9509011

I meant electronic, not electric!

Every type of music. I don't care about genre as long as I like it.

Most of the stuff I like end up being electronic based or rock/metal though.

A lot of stuff.

Vocaloid, Touhou remixes, Anime, j-core, game, and movie osts make up the majority of my music collection but I also listen to a lot of western music, rock, electronica, orchestra, metal etc.
Nick Cave, Solar Fields, Dvorak, Iron Maiden, to name a small few.

>>9509011
Electric music ww

It sounds pretty swell, regardless. Have you ever listened to an album that you actually liked all the songs on? I'm curious.

>>9509049
I don't play 2hu and I don't listen to 2hu/vocaloid stuff. But I love the /jp/ theme.

A bunch of stuff nobody cares about.

While we're on the subject, anyone here not really a fan of Touhou music?

>>9509037

To an electronic album I liked all songs on, or any album in general?
Either way, probably no. When I say I "like" a song, I mean that I'd consider putting it on my mp3 player or have it play in the background while I browse the net.
I don't really dislike most songs I hear, I just don't like them that much.

Ambient, Exotica, Moog-based synth music and everything else.

>>9509047
I care.

>electronic based music

me too. it's the fucking best

I'm into indie, hip-hop, emo, punk and acoustic, including:
Nujabes, Tegan and Sara, acro jazz laboratories, Dads, R. Kelly, 植松伸夫, Big K.R.I.T., Eazy-E, Travis James, Kendrick Lamar, Spraynard, The Fall of Troy, I Would Set Myself On Fire For You, Warren Franklin, Fear Before The March Of Flames, Have Heart, One Night Stand in North Dakota, Lil Debbie, Old Gray, Carissa's Wierd, The Mountain Goats, Zechs Marquise, Cecil Taylor, Snowing, Jacob Kirkegaard, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Omeed Goodarzi, Apocalypse Meow, Kreayshawn, Melt-Banana, Dredg, Please Inform the Captain This is a Hijack, Yuji Ohno, Rosa, The Notorious B.I.G., Noizenecio, きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ.

It's like I'm really on /mu/.

Shingo DJ is awesome. Also Dj Sharpnel is a good choice

>>9509065
Digital electronic, analogue electronic or electro-acoustic?

This is a great song. I've listened to it more than any other song this year.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nblK0dtd1GA

Also, regarding this band.

>In 1970, the original bass player Moriaki Wakabayashi assisted in the hijacking of Japan Airlines Flight 351 orchestrated by the Japanese Red Army.

Interesting, no?

>>9509072
Dj Sharpnel is actually such a good artist. I love most of his older stuff, but his newer stuff is also great too.

>>9509069

Please don't do that.

http://www.last.fm/user/Merzbro

>>9509047
I care anon! You can tell me!

>>9509077
Les are cool though they have a quantity over quality issue. If you want to get serious about them start at Mizutani.

>>9509086
Hey, hey! You like grimes? I love her music. She works in such a unique way in producing her music. I love it though.

Used to like Infected Mushroom up to their Army of Mushrooms album. And I'm not one of those idiots who stops liking a group because their music sounds different, their music actually changed for the worse. The songs are dubsteppish as hell and they are just boring and repetitive.

Any /jp/sies know of a similar group/artist?

>>9509060
Fine.

Right now I've got Panacea playing. I have a menagerie of stuff, but my selection is limited because I'm lazy. Balanescu Quartet, Five Alarm Funk, and Dysrhythmia to name a few.

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu! It's like moe in an audible form.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoK8DaJRDaM

>>9509106

You'd probably like denpa music, if you haven't already heard any of it besides that.

>>9509093
Will do, thanks.

>>9509099

Yeah I like Grimes.

But do you like her enough to buy her pussy rings molded from her own labia?

Mogra rips.

>>9508837
I usually listen to anything relaxing. Lately, I have
been listening to Girls Dead Monster from Japan.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXRoez6hs8s

Rock, music related to anime, VN and videogame music. I think that's all.

>>9509130
I'm buying one and I'll wear it whenever I go out, which would be never. But it would be neat to have.

>>9508905
give me some examples? I was looking for some industrial to listen to. no rammstein.

Mostly orchestral, but folk and metal are rising, while music with vocals has plummeted.

Thinking about getting into electronic and jazz. Problem is mostly I'm not sure where to start.

electropop

nakata is my kami-sama

Latin chants.

>>9509200

this cunt made miles 50x better

>>9508837
I enjoy (I guess) a wide array of music. My favorite being more prog metal or symphonic metal. But I do enjoy a good bit of techno and electronic and orchestral music is always good.

last month

>>9509106

This was playing EVERYWHERE in Japan when I visited in May. It was one of the first things I saw on a tv in Narita airport trainstation. Thanks for reminding me. As if it wasnt stuck in my enough.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_0G6WPuss4

this shit is as hardcore as I am

>>9509232
I went last month and her face was on fucking everything.

I never figured she was all that popular outside the internet but damn, she is!

Post punk because it is cold like my soul.

>>9509340

close enough?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM2xcixxebA

>>9509196
Wow, she's getting fat.

>>9509346
2hardcore

More like this:
http://youtu.be/6ZRHQ1SEWpA

Noise, Industrial and Detroit Techno are my favorite genres

>>9509370
I hope Detroit techno is robocop themed

http://www.last.fm/user/nsepnsep

>>9509370
Picked up the 12" for this the other day:
http://youtu.be/fGqiBFqWCTU

I'm falling more and more in love with futuristic blackpeople musics from the early 80s.

>>9509368

Not jap, discarded.

Jet Set Radio music or the Gorillaz. I also like Nujabes and Little Dragon.

>>9509373

It pretty much is, actually
Detroit techno is the best

There aren't that many people in the noise/industrial world who are also hardcore otaku

>>9509384

good taste anon!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOBUqCIXXWY

thats my favorite off the album

>>9509387

If I remember correctly this song featured remixed in JSRF.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PykmzNvNXZY

>>9509394
Every noisefan on fag.fm has an animu avatar.

Techno (Happy Hardcore, Trance, Hardstyle, Big Beat, that type of stuff), very little amounts of Dubstep, I'm sick of it, used to listen to rock and metal, really just haven't in forever, pop, but only Europop or other foreign pop like K-pop, American pop is utter shit, Jazz, Classical, and Rap/Hip-Hop, but only if it's nerdy.

Denpa and anime songs for ten years now.

>>9509402

Prurient is Pitchfork Electronics.

Also, that's totally true, I started listening to Touhou doujin music by way of people with anime avatars on last.fm, before abandoning my account years ago.

>>9509402

juntaro was probably otaku, same with the other dude who jacked off

>>9509431
Juntaro never died. He's just holed-up in some apartment shitposting on /jp/, yelling 1234 before he clicks submit.

Dark Ambient, Black Metal, Noise, Breakcore/gabber.

I haven't listened to music by itself in literally at least 3 months.

>>9509444
>Mahmoud Awad

>>9509442

I always knew Juntaro was still alive, he's just probably a NEET living under a false name

>>9509424

I too abandoned my account (at least the one people knew me as), but I since made a new one since I like looking at charts of what I listen to

I made that mistake of associating with people who are on places like last.fm for social interaction

>>9509444
>Igorrr
Fine taste.
Haven't heard him or anything regarding him in a few month though.

>>9509449
la illa ha illa anna, ainul iblis.

>>9509469
Nostril is one of my favorite albums, check out his Cybergrind project Whourkr.

>>9508913
This.

There are a few exceptions, though. Like MADWORLD ost.

Touhou and all other doujin music only. Any genre, really.

Drone metal, Black metal, Post-rock, deep house

etc

>>9509557
>deep house
Are there any other works of Vakula I should know about?
I liked Uthank 2

Denpa, ambient, field recordings, and oldies. (Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, etc.)

denpa all day every day

>>9509563

yes

No country, very little rap, not much metal. I'm fine with nearly anything else, especially rock, jazz, and orchestra.

I also don't understand how people can hate all vocals, could someone explain it to me? Sorry in advance if it completely derails the thread.

Black metal, doom metal, a but of post-rock and whatever good albums I can find.

Electronic, ambient, vocaloid, hip hop. Anime songs sometimes, but I get tired of those real quick.

Um... It's really quite difficult to categorize the type of music I listen to. The best way to describe it I guess would be, "melody-driven with classical/jazz influences."

I enjoy some oldies time to time as well.

All kinds of J-core but mostly hardcore, freeform, breakcore, psychedelic, gabber, happy hardcore, dubstep some bemani stuff

>>9509645
>melody-driven with classical/jazz influences
Any examples?

Tons of metal and denpa.

>>9509661
A lot of my favorite songs are from OSTs. I had some trouble picking out just a few, but here are some examples:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNkj2kPojOs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXjk3P5LjxY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIlFmb-A4i0

Soundtracks of all stripes and sizes, mostly, and pretty much only soundtracks. It's a bit bizarre, actually; music from OSTs seem to have a certain quality to them that I really like no matter what genre they are. EDM, ambient and ambient subgenres, rock, reggae, classical, everything - I like soundtracks consisting of all of those.

Lately I've been listening to the Metroid Prime OSTs, though. Especially 1 and 2. Holy fuck they're incredible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFGvDMfdH1o
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZmFAzHCSJY

Also, if anyone has any fucking idea what genre these would be classified as and where I can find more tracks like them I'd be much obliged; I've asked everywhere and done a ton of research and yet nobody I talk to can pin down a genre or direct me towards anything that sounds even remotely like these OSTs.

I used to listen to electronic dance music and vocal trance a lot.

Recently I've just had Touhou arranges on around the clock, though.

>>9509713

Broadly it just sounds like EDM to me. Mostly reminds me of the tracks near the bottom of this page:

http://www.empusae.com/empusae/sounds.html

>>9509710
So pretty. I like it.

I listed to all the Animal Collective albums, solo projects and EPs over and over again.

>>9509713
You can't really go wrong with OSTs because they have so much to offer. There are usually a lot of different genres in just one OST so even if you're really picky, there might be at least one piece you'll enjoy. And if someone enjoys various genres like you do, even better, right?

I know what you're talking about when you say that "certain quality" which OSTs have. But I know of no way to definitively categorize them into certain genres. But if you're just talking about Metroid, I'd say ambient electronic music with a "sci-fi" touch.

>>9509753
Thanks.

>>9509748
Holy shit, thanks.

>>9509713
Rob Brown and Sean Booth of Autechre fame have been credited towards Metroid Prime as a special thanks. No doubt an influence to the soundtrack.
I'd definitely give Autechre works a listen to regardless.
Tango 'n Vectiff by µ-Ziq feels very Metroid Prime-ish on a good portion of tracks, in fact a friend of mine once confused it for a Metroid Prime track when he heard it over the mic.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bK4aeahcXc

Denpa, Classical, VN and anime music.

I've asked /mu/ about the Metroid Prime OST at least three times in the last few years and never got any results. I ask on /jp/ and I get three informative answers within half an hour.

Thanks, nerds.

>>9509914
/mu/ knows a lot of artists and songs, but their musical sense itself is actually pretty lacking. There are obviously some exceptions, but this stands true overall.

You people have a damn good taste in music.
I've been listening to metal and electronic for the most part with some jazz from time to time. Pic related

80s metal to death metal and electronic.

Please don't hate me.

WHOA
ALOT
OF
電気音楽

sparky4 approves

>>9509076
Digital and analog Electronic only

I used to be into doujin music and stuff in high school, but then I gave actual music a try. With a few exceptions, all doujin music is amateur-sounding and gimmicky, relying on some brand (such as Touhou) to sell rather than the actual music. So to anyone listening to doujin music, give real entries into their respective genres a try.

>>9510321

Should be 電子音楽

Orchestral, jazz and gabber. I enjoy listening to some power metal as long as there are no vocals. I hate vocals in my music unless it's a female singing jazz or denpa.

>>9509231

>>9510426
here

Leonard Cohen / Nick Cave brofist

>>9510795
I saw yours before posting mine, but I didn't know if you were still in the thread or not. I was going to recommend the Rome album in mine based on the Death in June and the general amount of industrial and industrial derivatives.

>>9510806

Thanks for the suggestion, they're pretty good

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbLVhi6aPyE
This is my favorite band right now, called Toe. They're a Japanese instrumental band. Mostly I listen to post rock like Built to Spill or Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, and I think the mathrock scene is kind of lame, but these guys blend both genres perfectly. Relaxes me like nothing else. Gotta love those damn Japs.

Would anyone be interested in doing a /jp/ mumuplayer?

Here's my list.

Is it music that is not newer rap or retarded gospel? Then all of it. And nearly anything Touhou related.

or this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSS5dEeMX64

mostly electronic. house, dnb, electropop, few dubstep songs, ambient, pretty much anything that sounds good. some game/anime OSTs, some piano stuff, some touhou. its mostly one or two songs from different artists. shemusic is an electronic music producer that i can say i've enjoyed nearly his entire discography however. i recommend you guys check him out. i love onoken's blue orb album too. every single track on it.

newest track im hooked to
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xtc9DMlQdI

>>9511500
Nice, you like ethereal wave?

>>9511524
Got a link? I'm always up for new stuff. Bought a 2 TB external just for music, and Touhou games.

>>9511541
Here you go.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYaHFnHB4S0

This is the full album, so if you enjoyed it through you should look into more artists and other similar genres.

>>9511555
And bookmarked for tomorrow. Thanks bro, I'd listen to the album tonight, if, ya know, wasn't about to lose my damned job soon. Seems I always come back to /jp/ when shit goes down to get to enjoy some real internet scenarios.

job hunting in America. going to be a wonderful fucking day.

I don't really have a set favorite, I like any music which is able to resonate within me. If I had to choose then I guess I'd say I'm especially fond of most of the electronic genres, jazz and just about anything from the 80s.

Weeaboo music from anime and VNs, as well as Touhou music and remixes and such. They bring pleasant memories. Favorite band is probably Denkare.

>>9509101

Just dive into the world of psytrance, there's much better stuff out there than infected mushroom. Like....millions of songs worth over decades

denpa but I'm not really into the new cute J-Pop stuff that gets called denpa.
