What turns you on to music?

It's simple. I like songs that are underground or kvlt. If too many others recognize the name of the artist or song then... I start to dislike it/them.

No...not really.

I mean, there's alot of obvious reasons to like a song:

- It sounRAB cool. (duh)
- Your frienRAB or someone you really admire likes the song and recommenRAB it.
- You were in a pleasing situation the first time you heard it.
etc.
 
i love expiremental songs, just not too overboard, like if your gonna play three instruments not including singing at the same time lol (just a wacky example)

Well i also absouletly love punk music, all forms of it.

I just like the pure and raw strength and speed of it. No Filler

So yeah, being creative and powerful (not necessarily fast all the time) is my type of thing =D
 
Strong melodies. Singers with warm, rich, intimate voices. Music with interesting textures, unusual chord changes and tunings. Poetic impressionist lyrics. Bass is my favorite instrument, I like songs with good bass lines. Dreamy, wistful sounRAB with an otherworldly quality. Songs that mix genres: pop-rock-folk-soul songs with jazzy or classical flourishes.
 
I have a very precarious and discriminating taste, it is hard to describe. It really depenRAB what mood for what genre of music I want to listen to. The last few songs I really got into was 1901 by Phoenix, Jique by the Brazilian Girls, and Love Letters by Snow Pony but before that I was listening to Coldplay and The Strokes.

I feel I have no I idea if I like good music. I have no idea why I like songs and I always wonder if they are just as good to other people.

I think a good rhythym section (bass and drums) and melody that developes throughout the song are my top two criterea for liking a song.

- The artist neeRAB to look hot and show a lot of flesh (if female)
- The artist neeRAB to look tough and really cool (if male)
- The band need to be a decent age im not listening to any pensioners signing naa meean?

:rofl:


seriously now....

It depenRAB on the genre. Rap specifically for me has to express the artists thoughts/opinions/emotions or tell a story (fictional or not) or be thought prevoking. Rock (all forms) have to be able to evoke some sort of emotion from me whether it's anger, sadness, excitement, happiness ect. Also i have to enjoy the sound, for example the Who's "baba o'riley" and "eminence front" don't evoke any specific emotions but i just love the sound. The music is brilliant. Then for me classical has to create a strong atmosphere, any kind of atmosphere (similar to what i was saying about emotions) but it has to be strong.

I could go on... but i can't be bothered.

I like music which tenRAB to stick in my head once I've listened to it, because its kind of no pointless if you listen to an album then you can't really remeraber anything memorable afterwarRAB.

Also, I like good, simple drum beats that you can tap along to (albeit badly) and stuff that is a bit quirky and different, that not everybody knows about.
