how do u find ur music

there are a buttload of ways, like magazines, friends, sites. I mostly get recommendations from Muzik, but otherwise use last.fm or the iStore. I'd look at the artists on their "complete collection" of whatever genre, and download a bunch of albums if I liked their sample.

wat aboot u
(and I wouldn't consider this music discussion, this deserves a separate thread)

Re: how do u find ur music

All my real life friends have shit taste in music, so I really only pay attention to the one stoner friend who drives me home everyday after baseball practice (sometimes after I'm forced to be there for drug deals... yippee! ~_~).

Other than that, I pay attention to what my history teacher plays in class, or what he puts on his website here. (Also his Best of 2006 list can be found here, in case anybody cares. worth checking out, after seing how much music he listens to).

And besides all that, I use the internet. Last.fm, primarily. Wikipedia secondarily. Muzikaddict thirdidarily.

And yeah, if I already know which album I have in mind, I'll just search for it on blog search engines, where it's quite popular to UL massive amounts of albums for pirates to find easily.

oh, and that one forum I go to, which specilizes in uploading albums you ask for (if they have it, at least, but mostly everyone there has over 40 gb of music, at least, so chances are usually good...).


Oh, and Doctor used to be a big help to me, but now he's poo, so yeah.

Re: how do u find ur music

purevolume and friends and my brother mostly. I have a last.fm account but i don't really like it that much. For some reason last.fm turns me off and I never really got into it.

Edit: I also take recommendations in the now playing thread here and music discussion thread. Sometimes i find stuff i like

Re: how do u find ur music

I personally don't see how OiNK makes you find "new" music, it's just basically a torrent site, correct? I mean, sure you find more obscuro stuff, but it's not like you're actually learning of new music, until you actually DOWNLOAD it and listen to it. Otherwise, it's just the same as any other torrent site... only with obscure music. I don't see how that is "finding" new music...


Then again, I've never been to the site, and I already have as much amazing music at my disposal as needed. :pretentious:

Re: how do u find ur music

1) You said you just wanted to look at the site, then you spam the place up with 28 posts of emoticons and shit music taste.

2) You were only at opethforum for like, two days. You hardly know anything about it. Opethforum was the FIRST place to get the leak of Opeth's Ghost Reveries album, Porcupine Tree's new album, Dungen's new album, and an insane amount of other shit.

3) Touché, but then again, I wouldn't know, as I don't have an OiNK account anyways. At least I'm a good enough friend to tell you the damn site I get my shit at. But NO, you tell me nothing about OiNK...

To each his own, and all sorts of misc. bullshit, then. You got your knowledge in stuff, and I got mine. I'd say I listen to a lot of genres also, at least on the same scale as you. It's just, we both have our differences. (any bullshit smartmouthing from you, mister, and I dare you to check this shite out: http://www.davethemoonman.com/lastfm/aep.php)

Re: how do u find ur music

Which is a load of shit because even bit himself knows I listen to more genres than he does.

I was mid-way into a reply when I came to terms that it doesn't even matter. I really just don't care how some internet calculation rates my listening diversity.

You're turning into quite the enlarged bag of douche, though, bit.

Re: how do u find ur music

I know.


I meant to give some disclaimer as to me knowing you listen to more genres than me, and more underground music, but I figured you'd realize that on your own.


(You did)


And yeah, I actually meant to talk to you last night, about that whole recent douchebaggery thing, but you weren't online. Trust me, I was actually expecting that reaction from you (I also figured you read it, but didn't feel like commenting on it too, just bcuz im smrt n no u well)


But yeah, get online tonight, for a while. We need to talk. Not exactly a friendly convo, mind you.

not only that, but he doesn't answer his goddamn phone half the time. talking about you off the interweb sure is funny though ;p

Atomic-- yeh, the book is really good. read Choke by Chuck Palahniuk, it's about sex addicts and other hilarious dillemmas

actually it's not that much more fun. i've had friends that i've invited to GT and VDC and it's really not much different than talking about forum over aim, nor is it any less pathetic.

and, yes, this means you are still a pathetic shit.
