So really you are missing the whole point.

Forget it, i go through this with many people and they still dont understand. It is frustrating untill i remember the saying 'ignorance is bliss' - so enjoy the bliss while it lasts.

I have to say, I don't like Björk.
Not my kinda music.
Then her personality is... well... she's got attitude :not_ok:

But it's funny, she's more popular outside of iceland than here :blink:

No she isn't. Nobody likes Bjork.

[Maerlyn]

That is usually the way.

Edit: that was to Puffin.

Does anybody know the band Sigurrós?

I like music that has had some thought put into it by the songwriters.

There is nothing wrong with electronic elements in music but anyone can sit at a computer and create a drumbeat and bbehind line with the right software.

Do you mean that in electronic music the songwriters don't think what they do?
(...well some might not, but... :whistle: )


Anyway, why don't you try yourself how easy it is to create music yourself? The software won't do the music, the guy behind the screen does. [/b][/quote]
On the contrary, the software can do the music and I spend a lot of time doing it. I can create a backing track in half an hour without even touching a musical instrument.

On the subject of electronic music, I generalised a little too much. Of course, there is a lot of excellent electronic music out there made by people who do things I could never dream of doing. But there is also a lot, mostly on the pop scene, that uses very basic chord sequences and very simple sequencing techniques that, with a few good-looking girls (who probably didn't sing on the recording) on the CD sleeve, sells big numbers of records. That is what I was referring to.

Personally, I still prefer the sound of live instruments (it's my job, if I didn't I'd be out of work) but I've no objection to electronic music as long as it has some intellectually 'musical' content and is not just mass produced near-identical songs.

I like Billy Talent, Sum 41, The Black Mages (a rock band that remixed some battle themes from Final Fantasy and there keyboarder is Noubu Umatsue [SP] the composer of all FF songs), System of the Down and a few indidual songs (like Du Haust and Sink into the Underground)

Now I see your point and I couldn't agree more with you there

Anyways... I hate them.

But "Vi?rar vel til loftárása" is cool on piano!
