your musical one true love?

i dunno - the ptv obsession has only been in full effect for a couple of years so far... techno has been with me much longer.

saying which, the two greatest live performances i've ever seen were p-orridge performances of one sort or another, so i guess it looks like its getting that way...
 
i love all sorts of music from all different genres ('though i've always leaned away from guitar based music, prefering music with strong bass/drum beats and rhythms)

however, for the past 25 or so years, there's always been one constant; my one true love - reggae. :)

i think, while most of us are pretty sluttish when it comes to our musical interests, there's always one genre of music we always go back to... for me, it's techno, and has been for about 7 years - and it's been my only constant musical interest for 12 or 13 years.

is this true for everyone, or are some of you true musical butterflies, flitting from r&b to metal as the mood takes you?

Old skool UK Garage, and grime, without a doubt. I've tried to fight it... tried stopping clubbing... even sold my decks and records... but I couldn't hold out... I just had to have those beats again... it's with me for life I think.
 
Over the years I've constantly sought out and taken inspiration from new types of music and been overjoyed and saddened in turn by the sounds and rhythms of wildly disparate genres, but I will always find myself coming back to Johnny Hates Jazz.
 
My one categorical imperative has always been - MAKE IT FUNKY!

In particular, gimme Sly & The Family Stone to take me HIGHER!
 
I keep reverting back to either Gary Numan or Metallica. That's pre 92 Metallica and missing out that late 80s bit of Numan.

I need to have words with myself I think.

As long as Johnny Hates Jazz don't make a comeback (especially anywhere near me) I can't see a problem with that
 
Albums I always go back to:

Green on Red - No Free Lunch
Teenage Fanclub - Bandwagonesque
Galaxie 500 - On Fire
The Undertones - The Undertones
Blondie - Parallel Lines/Plastic Letters
Dead Kennedys - Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death/Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
The Cramps - Bad Music for Bad People/Date With Elvis

Shit, that ain't the thread question is it?

Fuck knows?

Old music?

And chuck in jungle, techno, and reggae, but the above albums are always out and about for a play

:)
 
!?

yesterday when i was a little bit pissed :rolleyes: ,
i wrote a rabid fanmail to someone whose music i really really respect,
then mailed it off without reading it through a second time...big, big mistake... :eek: !

it's of course entirely my own fault,
but i'll feel much better about myself if i can just blame it on this thread,
placing its secret agendas bopping around in my unconscious psyche, causing mischief... :mad:

:(

Oh thank god. I've always felt a pariah amongst friends (and the world) about dylan...at least there's another person in the world who feels like I do.

Deified to death, and can't even play decent harmonica.

Have you seen the stupid ego drivel of a film he wrote for himself? I had to sit though that piece of shit to review it. painful stuff.
