What kind of music does everyone listen to?
There is a Swedish band I showed Orf previously that I enjoy. They are named JJ, and are comprised of a guy and a girl. Their songs vary from one another on this album. The rapper sample at the beginning for a few seconds is not in the actual album. Stupid youtube uploaders... This is based off of the Lil Wayne song Lollipop. Ecstacy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLDuWJu7wsI&feature=related Here is a mash between the two. It's pretty decent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_VEmnXVAZY This one centers more on acoustic guitar and melodic singing. Me & Dean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gloGfYwCAkk
Also, there is a band named Animal Collective which produces some pretty good music. You need to have a taste for this kind of stuff to like it, I think. They can mix a lot of samples and sounds to create a singular product that fits together quite well. Some of the samples they use are so dissonant, and would probably be unpleasant on their own. But they craft them together to compliment one another. It's interesting. My Girls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zol2MJf6XNE Fireworks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztvr09J7KK4&feature=related What Would I Want? Sky: http://prettymuchamazing.com/music/animal-collective-what-would-i-want-sky you have to scroll down to play this mp3. I can't find a good video of it. The song takes a long while to build up - about 3 minutes. Soon after you will hear a sample of Jerry Garcia, singing "What would I want? Sky." I heard they are the first group to use a vocal clip from Garcia. So that is neato. Also Frightened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWP7x1oF9dA
Anyways, what kind of music is everyone into? Maybe post a link to something you listen to that you think other people might like but haven't heard yet.

I have a lot of variety in my music collection, but i'll post some favorites
I also have a massive collection of really bad, 2000s emo and screamo that gets a lot of play time but I don't especially care to admit to it, lol
I've seen Animal Collective twice live, poppins -- once during their Sung Tongs tour and once during their Feels promotion. I don't really care for them too much but they put on a good live show.

I haven't gotten through all of it. I dig the grouper song a lot.
