SWR - Tear You Apart: B The video was cool, music was pretty good. The girl was pretty, as well. *youtubing*
RHCP - Sir Psycho Sexy Invalid Video Link ...There's a devil in my dick and some demons in my semen...
Damn, M, that's a hell of a song. I've heard that before too. So I was right, they are sampling monks? What a great idea. Sir Psycho Sexy - A- I used to love this song and the silliness of it, but I've just heard it so much that it's become gimmicky. Too many people listen to it as a joke than listen to it for its musical content, which is a shame, because it's brilliantly written. In a way, I wish Kiedis would have used less sexually provocative lyrics, but then again, that'd be kind of going against everything the band is. You've got to love Fru and Flea's "la la la la's" though. Invalid Video Link ^^^ Honestly, not sure what language she's singing (It says it's French on YouTube, but on the radio it said Italian), but it's still a romantic, beautiful song lyrics aside. It was one of the few songs that I actually stopped to write down the name of when I heard it on the radio. I haven't done that in ages.
?milie Simon - D?sert - B+ The radio was wrong, but that's alright because both languages are Latin anyway. ?milie Simon is actually from somewhere around the H?rault region I think, check Wikipedia to be sure. I'm not as familiar with her as my fianc?e is. Anyway, she's a pretty good singer and her songs are usually unique. Like most French artists she excells at electronic music. This song in particular drifts in and out of simple pop electronic to darker intentions. That's why I like it. Is this actually on the radio in the US now??!!? * new song is from M?m - Green Grass Of Tunnel Invalid Video Link Oh how this will be bashed by likely anyone who rates it. No matter, I will always love the moody and untouchable experience that they bring. One of Iceland's best bands.
<div class="quote_poster">M Two One Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Is this actually on the radio in the US now??!!? </div> I doubt it's on the mainstream radio stations, but I've got a local sort of 'underground' electronica/hip-hop/soft rock station that I listen to at work every day, commercial free. When it came on I definitely took note. Even on such an off-beat station it was unique.

I expected you to reply with XM radio or something like this. That's cool you found her though, she's pretty good.

I really love all the downtempo electronica I've heard out of Europe so far, so much better than anything the Americas have produced. I first got into that whole scene through Air, but now I'm starting to get into bands like R?yksopp, Peace Orchestra, and Gotan Project as well and haven't been disappointed yet.

I also love Vitalic, the only house electronic musician that can create emotion through simplicity. The man is a genius. (French as well strangely enough) His main inspirations are Air and Daft Punk.

That's really the kind of music I'm starting to delve into at the moment, simplistic yet beautiful. I love the illustrations that went along with it as well, especially at the end with the northern lights. You're on a roll, bro'. Those last few recommendations of yours have really opened up a whole new avenue of music for me. Thanks. New Song: R?yksopp - Poor Leno Invalid Video Link Decent song with a great video.
Thanks, I'm glad you like the stuff so far. I didn't think anyone would like M?m because they fall into a similar catagory to fellow countrymen Sigur R?s and every video I've put up from them hasn't done well. You ever heard of Tricky? Oh man, Poor Leno, should I rate this or let someone else take it? lol

Oh man, Poor Leno, should I rate this or let someone else take it? lol</div> I don't think I've rated any of your Sigus R?s videos personally (not 100% positive though); I'll have to go back and check them out. Tricky, as in the rapper? Yeah, I heard the stuff he did with Anthony Kiedis (who without RHCP is really useless) and John Frusciante. I really had a hard time getting into those songs in particular but never checked out his other stuff. And oh yeah, rate it if you want... I take it you've got an opinion on it.
Tricky has a lot of original work. One of my favorite artists. Check out "For Real" and "Poems" on Youtube if someone has put those two up. He often makes albums and songs with other artists. As for Sigur R?s, check out the video I posted on the very first page. Btw, how'd you like those V.A.S.T. videos I sent? R?yksopp - Poor Leno - A- I love this video, I find it hilarious and sad all at the same time. The music is so down played compared to most artists in the genre, but still gets you going anyway. R?yksopp have a way of doing that, but this song isn't even close to being my favorite off of the album. I absolutely love Eple. The only thing I never liked about Poor Leno is the voice synth, I feel it was overdone by Daft Punk already. That doesn't really hinder on the song though. Next song is from dredg - Yatahaze / 90 Hour Sleep (Live) Invalid Video Link Sorry for the wait! One of the best endings to any album, ever. Oh that eeriness again ..
dredg - Yatahaze / 90 Hour Sleep (Live): B+ I've never heard of those guys in my life, but damn that was a pretty song. I barely have the patience to go through 6 minute songs, but the song kept me listening throughout the entire thing, which only happens when I like what I'm hearing. Couldn't give it an A because there are a few parts of the song I didn't like (just me nitpicking I guess) but overall it was good stuff, especially considering this is a live recording. Since I remember Voodoo mentioning Muse or something in the other page, I thought I'd throw in a Muse song. I don't know about you guys, but just listening to this bass line gives me the heebie geebies. Muse - Hyper Music Invalid Video Link
I love Muse's first album, but I wish they'd dwelve into something different now. Something that will be very inspiring like that first album was. They have a lot of talent to do so. Muse - Hyper Music - B Very nice introduction into a hectic pace for the genre. Done very well too. Nice little addition of a heavy guitar pause mute riff exiting the central verse. Always some nice vocal work, not my favorite singer though. The bass line was good, but I didn't get that haunting feeling like you did. I donno what you mean, perhaps you can explain that? That's ok though, the song was good.
M, that song was absolutely amazing. I really need to get some of their albums, I've loved everything you've posted. I'm taking it you didn't want to post a song after the Muse one, so I'll go ahead and get one up...probably some older RHCP or something, I just watched their Live at Slane show. Red Hot Chili Peppers - By the Way (with intro) Invalid Video Link Everybody and their mother knows the song, but I'm infatuated with the intro. Frusciante is a god. I love the emotion he pours into everything he does. He looks like Jesus so much, god I love that man. I can't thank Voodoo enough for turning me onto them. And soon, I won't be able to thank you enough for turning me onto Dredg.
Oh I'm sorry man, I was just commenting on Muse I wasn't rating the song I was actually letting you guys take it since I've been posting so many vids. lol I'll just go ahead and rate it anyway, you keep your video up man. Glad you liked the dredg stuff.
BTW: A-, easily one of my favorite Chili Peppers songs, intro is sick. Ben Folds -- Get Your Hands Off My Woman (Cover) Can't find it on Youtube, so here's a download link. If that doesn't work then just ignore this post

Black Holes and Relvelations didn't have that brooding dark tone to it but it still sounded pretty much the same. Well, I didn't really mean that the bass line was haunting, I just thought that it kind of brought back memories of those old slasher films that used to scare the **** out of me because to me the bass was kind of reminicent of a chain saw. Maybe it's just me, but I guess that's how I interpreted it to be.

He brings so much intensity right off the bat. I would have given my right arm to go to the show at Slane. Get Your Hands Off My Woman - B I'm not a huge Ben Folds fan (only into some of their stuff), but believe it or not, I actually have this song on my computer. His falsetto voice compliments certain parts of the song well, like when he sings, "I've got no right to lay claim to her frame, she's not my possession," but I really don't like the way they handled the chorus. New Song: Here's a simple song from the 1960's that's not complex or anything but is a fun tune either way. I was really into music like this in my 'hippie' days (back in HS and shortly thereafter). The Grassroots - Live For Today Invalid Video Link
The Grassroots - Live For Today - A Simple compared to what is out now, sure I agree. But they are one of the inspirations to the creation of today's indie artists. I particularly love this song and always will, there really isn't much else I can write except that people today still learn something from this band. Whether that be as a fan of them or a fan of another band that sprung from their inspiration. Next song is from AaRoN - U-Turn (Lili) Invalid Video Link Ok, another French band, alright? But the guy sings in perfect English. One of the best up-and-comers of this generation. They have so much influence already that when they made this song for a French film (excellent one too known as Je Vais Bien, Ne t'en Fais Pas) the creator changed the name of the girl in this film to Lili to go directly after the song. I love the piano work, a lot of changing emotions and the climax is stellar.
