Simple what music do you like ? are you a modern hip hop person rap fan or do you like the golden oldies from the 60's and 70's or just maybe you like the good old clasical stuff.
So what do you like?
All of the above...well not big on rap, though there are some exceptions. I really like music from all genres though and see no reason to restrict myself. :cool:

I think that Kapitan works for a data-collection agency. My musical preferences are well-known, and it does not harm to say that I am particularly fond of academic music: Baroque, Renaissance, Neo-Classic, Medieval, Classic, Romantic, Modernist, et al. I loathe vernacular music (read: popular) to the point of utter destestation.
My snobbery should, at this point, astonish no one.

Zepplin, Stones, Moody Blues, Yes, Alman Brothers, Molly Hatchet, The Band, America, Fleetwood Mac, The Doobie Brothers, ZZ Top, The Who.
Maybe a few more I don't recall right now but that pretty much covers it.
Very little of today’s pop music most likely due to the fact that I am becoming a middle aged old fart, most pop music up to about the mid to late 80’s. But most of the time it has to be classic music I like a lot of the Russian composers.
Funny this subject has come up, for last few days I have been listening to national anthems around the world. We Brits really need a new one and fast, my four favourite national anthems are in no order France, Germany, Russia and America.
Cradle of Filth, Children of Bodom, In Flames etc. Basically everything that has any of these words under their genre: 'Heavy', 'Metal', 'Black', 'Trash', 'Death'. :rock:
Ps. No, Lordi doesnt belong in this category. :rotfl:

A lot of different music, can't say rap's one of them though.

Mostly Classical music (all kinds, not so much the "Modern Classical" but the trumpets are my favorite). Some rock (Green Day, The Killers, Bowling for Soup, and a few others I just hear on the radio). That's about it.
This is my favourite:http://www.google.com/musicl?lid=SzmK6dXHC5M&aid=s10VmoevoE

Jazz or classic music to have a relaxing background.
Country or folk to play card games.
Rock to be shaken by energy.
Some italian folksinger just for the words.

I don't like any of the modern stuff. I can't stand rap. I listen mostly to stuff from the 80's. My favorite 80's band is Autograph.
Jazz, 80's pop, classical, country, electro, house, rock, heavy metal, thrash metal, death metal, black metal, punk, HC, rap (mainly old skool), some of the modern pop. List is pretty much endless. It depends on the mood really.
As a younger man I was a big fan of Rock and Roll. Now that i'm older I favor the Blues, Bluegrass and the wife has recently even got me to tolerate classical music like Beethoven and Bach without feeling like i want to stab nails into my ears.
Depends on my mood.
Right now I am listening to Allison Kraus.
Pretty much anything goes with me, just not some of today's modern crap rap. But of all the music I like, the bands that I like the most are Coldplay, U2, and Franz Ferdinand. But Coldplay is the best out of the three.:up:

A man after my own heart.
Maybe I should keep my distance.

The only modern music I can stand is rap/hip hop... it isn't great, but it is a hell of a lot better than what people refer to as rock and "punk" these days... *puke*
Most of the time I'd much rather listen to some classic 60s soul (Temptations, William Bell, Four Tops) or some of the older folk/rock like Bob Dylan, CSNY, Simon and Garfunkel, Gordon Lightfoot, Kinks etc. Every once and a while I throw in some 80s alt rock/pop like tears for fears, a-ha, , etc.
I'm only 19 so my taste isn't that common for my age... but I honestly think music died over 20 years ago.
All sorts, just so long as it's not papy overproduced record company coffer liners ie. the spice girls *shudders*

screeny of my (somewhat disorganised) mp3 collection to give you some idea of what choice I have. Most are copied from CD though I have a ways to go yet before my total collection is ripped to my HD - does anybody else find they no longer use a conventional stereo any more, in favour of their computer? The speaker system on the PC puts the stereo to shame... and it's so much more convenient.
And I still have only about half of the music I want...
I still use my component stereo system i bought at the Illesheim PX in 1979 which still sounds as good as anything i've listened to since.
Pioneer 80 watt amp, 24 channel graphic equalizer, dynamic processor and digital synthesizer tuner.
Sharp 2 motor drive stereo cassette deck
Akai 10" reel to reel (yeah it still works great)
4ea Pioneer HPM 100 speakers (huge things that still produce great sound and often double as tables)
I've updated parts of the system a bit since by adding as Sony 400 CD changer, an el-cheapo turntable to replace the fancy Phase Linear lateral tracking one that finally went belly up and a Sirius satellite radio unit.
^^
well... *cough* perhaps my 'stereo' *cough* is sh*t compared to that...? :oops::lol: ;)

I have two of the same. You cannot beat reel to reel. I was left 46 copies from the original master reels of Philadelphia Orchestra Sunday Radio broadcasts from the 50's and 60's, in they heyday of Ormandy. Fantasic.

Cool. Do you know where to get tapes for it?

It's all in the speakers man. I mean if it sounds good it's good enough.
