Help me put together a playlist...

[toidbb]

Good day everyone, I just started to look at audio gear again after a few years of just using what I had. So, I have a new set of headphones coming in and I also would like to find some great music to listen to, that I may or may not have heard before. So here we are...


The ask: Let me know what are your 5 top songs you are into right now. I would like to leave it open to anything so that I get some new music to discover. I like pretty much anything but super heavy metal, and some rap. But feel free to suggest those as well if those are the song you really enjoy

The goal: I will create a playlist of these suggestions to listen through, and in the process I hope that I will discover some more music I may not have heard.

Hopefully enough people contribute, and maybe others may find something new as well.

Thanks in advance.

Best song.

Do you like classical?

How about pop?

[tp4tissue]

Best song.

It didn't work because she's not pretty enough.. you really need more star-power behind something like that..

[demik]

Dead prez - hip hop
MOP - ante up

[FLFisherman]

Okay, so I'm at work, but from the few seconds I've listened, this song is interesting.

[tp4tissue]

I think if Keith just STUCK with one direction / gaming  ,  his persona would work,
 

but if he's going out and doing all that weird stuff... it's just weird...

Lol, interesting is an understatement... And I find it hard to believe that most people would listen to it more than once or twice and become the song they listen though repeatedly.

So many times have I bugged out behind the wheel blasting "Hip Hop", "Ante Up", and "Simon Says". Every time people stare as this nerdy white dude.

Def in my top 10 to just blow my ear drums to.

I will probably take you up on this. I seem to go back to my basic ones. Need to listen to more varied stuff...

OP what type of rap do you not like? I can recommend some stuff.

[xtrafrood]

Ever since that time my bro helped me bypass the broken preamps in my coup deville I've played Telephasic Workshop by Boards Of Canada to test out new speakers or headphones. That Cadillac had a boss sound system that was somehow kept pristine because no one wanted to fix the problem

+ Pet Shop Boys - Yoko Uno - Walking on thin ice (remix)
+ Godspeed You! Black Emperor - East Hastings
+ Aesop Rock - Fishtales
+ Boards Of Canada - Telephasic Workshop
+ Black Violin - Triumph

I like a musical beat, so mostly rap that is only lyrical, is what I do not enjoy as much.

Thanks

Would you be interested in instrumentals?

Try The Roots. Full band. Every hippie kid that came to my place in Vermont that didn't know hip-hop ended up loving them and buying all their albums.

Any album produced by the alchemist. That man is a genius.

Yes, that would work as well. The whole idea even if some may be joking, is to find something new or that I have not listened to in a while. (That at least someone else likes)

Thanks

90% off topic but I have a big box of ripped CDRs that I need to get rid of. About half and half copies of actual CDs and mixes and best-ofs.
Mostly unconventional progressive and avant-garde rock and jazz from the 1960s-1970s. I like the weird stuff, but don't ask me about specifics, it has to be grab-bag as-is.

Send me a private message if you might be interested in something like 20 CDRs for $10 shipped domestic.
