Steoandnoodles: Things You Like (in Music)

Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	I love when the piano is played in a ethereal way (see Nico Muhly) or when brass instruments hit in hard but still drone.
Spec 08.29.12	Love me a good dissonant chord.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Big fan of the dissonant chords, eh Spec? =) I also love when the drums have a very, very slight reverb on the recording.
KILL 08.29.12	riffz
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	You love Asian music, don't you Baseline? =P
Graveyard 08.29.12	originality for the most part
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Yeah, yeah, Eastern Asian. Should have been more specific. Sorry. =P I love jingles. I dunno but anything that jingles in a melodic manner not overboard.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Is that so? Weird, didn't think you liked riff Sonic. =P
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Yeah, I like when the artist actually seems to have a concept or vision for their album rather than just being a bunch of songs.
YankeeDudel 08.29.12	I just like hearing all different kinds maaaan. VARIETY. Its what keeps me goin in this monotonous hellhole of a poop planet.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	No sounds that pop up on numerous occasions that you really like YankeeDudel?
JohnnyoftheWell 08.29.12	Good riffs, melodies that don't sound gay, high-range female vox, mid-range screams, emotional male vox, random but cool use of triplets, epic buildups, memorable solos, and original/surprising/different stuff, even if it sucks Don't like: low gutteral growls (most of the time), annoying chord/key changes, generic lyrics, shit vox
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	What melodies sound lame to you? Example? =)
ZilbelPing 08.29.12	I love synths set to sound sort of like a howling wind. 156 by Mew sort of displays this best. I also love when a note is held out and sounds haunting in contrast to the music. In the middle of Botanicas by Trophy Scars showcases this.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Oh yeah, that bothers me quite a bit. =/ Actually, I love when the singer clearly matches the music. Not that he/ she is a good singer and the music is good too but when the voice or the characteristics of the voice actually match the atmosphere of the music.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	I know what you mean ZilbelPing. =) Love when the vocals are almost like a sound effect to the music.
zombi666 08.29.12	I love the sound of a xylophone on a good track, seriously.
Ssssssss 08.29.12	good bass
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	YEAH! HELL YEAH! Zombi Xylophone, vibraphone, glockenspiels. I love that stuff.
Turtlestlker 08.29.12	riffz[3]
ZilbelPing 08.29.12	"Love when the vocals are almost like a sound effect to the music." "YEAH! HELL YEAH! Zombi Xylophone, vibraphone, glockenspiels. I love that stuff." Ah yes, I love that too. Especially Glockenspiels and Vibraphones. I love being a percussionist. A great oboe player can compliment music tenfold because of the unique sound an oboe gets when played with a great sound. Goddamn I sound like my band director.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Haha! Don't sweat it but I get you. Nico Muhly has a track called 'Pillaging music'. I think you'd love it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zIQAJgHSAw
Pentagon 08.29.12	riffz (4)
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Riffz(5) There. =P Any more takers for riffz? They're going hot.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Well there you go. =) Nice Systemfolded. Things I like and my tastes jump around into all sorts of different genres.
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Totally with you Potato! Completely. Especially distorted effects with thost abstractions and emphasis on texture but I am a sucker for production when it's slaved over. Even if you think it comes across as perfection; I love when your ear canal is fed elements of the song like candy rather than it all sort of sitting together in one pile. I feel the textures and layers are actually there when they're highlighted or not highlighted at certain events of the song. Like that rec I put up on your Shoutbox. That'd be the perfect production for me. The Bedroom Community label can read me like a book. =P
JohnnyoftheWell 08.29.12	"What melodies sound lame to you? Example? =)" Depends, usually excessively cheesy Example: opening 20 seconds of Garden of Shadows - Desert Shadows. Rest of the song is amazing tho
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Ah, I get you... Bon Jovi then?
ViralOblivion 08.29.12	I have a weakness for tribal drums and concept albums
JohnnyoftheWell 08.29.12	All I know is living on a prayer, but yeah, that kinda thing
Steoandnoodles 08.29.12	Oh my yes. Tribal drums and any sort of bombastic, foreign drum gets me in the right spots.
JohnnyoftheWell 08.29.12	Am guessing you love Neurosis - Cleanse
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	Just listening to it now. Yes. Yes I do. =) Those drums are awesome!
JohnnyoftheWell 08.30.12	Yeah lol, it's a bit of a mouthful but when in the right mood...
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	Yeah, it's really cool. Thanks for sharing. =)
JohnnyoftheWell 08.30.12	No probs, I think there are some tribals in the Through Silver in Blood t/t too, but I haven't heard that yet
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	But it's awesome! That's the sentence. =) Anyone a fan of the French horn?
JohnnyoftheWell 08.30.12	??
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	I dunno either...
JohnnyoftheWell 08.30.12	Lol Dunno much french horn
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	French horn is great man! Seriously great. Especially with a string section and some piano.
JohnnyoftheWell 08.30.12	Kk, I am partial to a bit of trumpet
FromDaHood 08.30.12	I love me some piano
Skweetis 08.30.12	Strong and/or effective singing, singers that can carry a song instead of it carrying them. Hooks, variety, hooks, hooks, hooks.
TheLast7thVermicide 08.30.12	love: epic songs, , guitar solos, excellent vocal performances, intensity , diversity, piano, something that is original and consistent . I fucking hate autotune, retarded lyrics, bands that dress like queers and fags that sing for: thugs, homos and 13 year old girls.
North0House2 08.30.12	I love when things are mixed strangely, like when the drums are mixed to the top layer and the vocals are underneath it all and stuff like that. I also really like unique instrumentation and minimalism.
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	Yeah? That's a weird one; the strange mixing I mean. I've never thought of it as strange just different mixing. I guess you could consider it strange, yeah.
Steoandnoodles 08.30.12	Not sure I follow. Appearing smart can take all sorts of forms.
