<div class="IPBDescription">Who are some of your music stars?</div> So yea being that I like from almost any type as long as it has a catchy tune, I was looking for some nice stuff from you Europeans.

For some reasone I feel compelled to add to my already 10.6 gig 2,136 track playlist. Do i listen to all those songs, yea. Plus I add to a college radio station sometimes so thats y i have so much.

6.4 gigs is techno and dance however the other 4.2 gigs is a mixture of everthing from country to rap to classical to punk, folk, whatever genre you can think of. Thats the area I want to expand upon.

So anyways who are some of your more popular/liked/musicaly skilled/whatever you listen too music artists?

BTW: I heard some some track by some British pop/rap guy, anyone know who he is? The song was about him being regarded as a hoodlum but how he is actualy such a nice guy. It was really funny. The end of the track had him and some "Nerdy" guy debating back and forth.

    Kill! KILL!! Scourge of the german music scene! Argh!
    Try "Die Fantastischen Vier", "Die Toten Hosen" and "Die Ärzte".
    That's "The Fantastic Four", "The Dead Trousers" (which is slang for "it's kinda boring around here") and "The Doctors".

    <b>Hood</b> - unbelievably good ambient/indie. Their latest record (Cold House) is <i>superb</i>, and was the record Kid A would have been if Radiohead weren't so busy crawling up their own backsides
    <b>Mum</b> - Very lovely lo-fi electronica from Iceland
    <b>The Darkness</b> - Kind of your classic glammy rock band, and the first one of all these retro bands that keep cropping up that's really worth listening to

    Tracks to sample:
    Hood - You show no emotion at all
    Hood - They removed all trace that anything had ever happened here
    Mum - Now there's that fear again
    The Darkness - Growing on me

    Welcome to oxymoron land, where 'greatest' and 'rave' occupy the same sentence...

    Those were the Hosen. I have yet to see the Prinzen come up with anything 'worse' than vague sexual innuendo.

    Oh, and I agree - Rammsteins members should be used in the fashion their name suggests.

    Ooh, here's one to **** Dirty Harry Potter off:
    Lars Lilholt Band! Don't laugh, I've been to one of their concerts (free admission rules), and it was quite good in fact. Just as long as you're in the right mood. I don't know if it's worth anything if you just listen to it on your compy.

    I think you might be talking about a track from "The Streets-Original Pirate Material"..can't remember the name of the track though..

    This week I is mostly listening to..

    Leftfield - "Leftism", "Rhythm and Stealth"
    Massive Attack - "Protection", "Mezzanine" "Safe from Harm"
    Black Sabbath- "Best of ( remastered )" which is quite frankly the dogs bollocks, even though "St.Vitus dance" and "Children of the Sea" should have been on it in place of some of the well dodgy later stuff..
    Led Zeppelin- Remasters ( yes, I am an old hippy.)
    Soundgarden - Superunknown
    PJ Harvey - "Stories from the city.." "4 Track demos*" "Rid of Me"
    * This record walks the fine line between insanity and genius with considerable style.

    Edit: Camille Yarborough- "Take Yo Praise" . This is the song that tosspot Fatboy Slim sampled in "Praise You", if you can get a copy of the original, it's fluffing amazing.

    Oh, and James Brown-"Live at Chaiston Park" top stuff.

    <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> I meant some of the "classic" early 90s Rave stuff, like Prodigy, Ratpack, FSOL, Top Buzz, etc. etc. I thought of them all as British. But European at the very least anyhoo! You know what I mean - tr00 Rave like "This Sound Is For The Underground" by Krome & Time, SL2 "On A Ragga Tip", "Far Out" by Sonz Of A Loop Da Loop Era, the "I feel the heat" mix of "A Trip To Trumpton" by Urban Hype, etc.

    Yeah - I absolutely adored their first 2 albums, though one track on Fat Of The Land goes back to those days and even samples Egyptian Empire's "The Horn Track".

    I remember the first time I heard "Music for the Jilted Generation" totally off my face in this blokes room back in college halls. He had the loudest stereo I've ever seen.

    So loud in fact, that we didn't hear a fire alarm going off outside the door.( false alarm luckily ). We were totally clueless and somewhat surprised when 3 firemen strolled in, axes, breathing gear and what not..

    Ah, nostalgia..

    /wanders off hummiing "Voodoo people" and "No Good"..
