Salami. Chromelodeon fucking rock. Prog rock. With gameboys. Cheap Dinosaurs. Very good. Ameer and John found these for me. Ameer even uploaded this. What lovely people. (No, they're bastards.)

I guess it's the memory of endless joyful hours playing on my friend's C64s when I was a kid. 8-Bit weapon, not that experimental as Mandy's vids, but quite catchy. Not 8-bit style itsself, but industrial/ebm centering around 8bit games (and dressing up like sad ravers): Eisenfunk Not computer-related stuff at all, but sticking to the topic of totally odd music: black/doom metal meets psychotic drunken chanting, really great music to keep calm at work: ------------------ -temporary placeholder for a new cool signature-

I remember those guys when they were doing shabby C64 remixes at remix.kwed.org like I was. Only mine involved a lot more being shit and turning my guitar up as loud as possible turning everything into a distorted mess. Only found Split Enz recently.

I like what I like and a lot of what I like I'm usually inclined to keep hidden from passengers in my car. Anyhow, I was browsing through YouTube favorites and came across this gem. It's odd, it's different - it's not really 'like me', but I love it. I used to sing it to Ruth. Bonus points if you know where I first heard it - without surfing through the YouTube comments or Google or anything.

Goldfrapp - 'You Never Know' [M�m Remix] (darker remix of a light, poppy disco track - Adam, I think you'll like this one) Shiny Toy Guns - 'Weather Girl' (though it's hard to pick my favorite STG song) AND THE MOST DISCO OF ALL OF THE NEWAGE DISCO I FEEL LIKE POSTING TONIGHT (and perhaps my FAVORITE!!!!) Starfucker - 'Boy Toy'

Now I could try to pick out music that I like that I think is good yet obscure, but seeing as how the thread specifies "odd", I will try to find music that I like that is "odd". The very first thing that came to mind is a band called I Hate You When You're Pregnant. IHYWYP is basically a drum machine, some simple electronic music, a bunch of screaming, and childish humor. I found out about this band from a hipster friend circa 2007. I recall they specifically told me "you wouldn't like it", as if I wasn't hip enough. Well, it turns out I love IHYWYP. That hipster was a bitch anyway. Now, don't get me wrong, this song sucks ass. It is by all reasonable measure a terrible song. But I still like it. This next songs comes from my absolute #1 favorite band in the entire world ever, Digital Leather. This is the only band I have ever liked enough to actually go out of my way to see them live. They have a lot of genuinely genuinely awesome music. Rather than trying to pick my favorites, I'll pick a few ones that might be considered odd. Digital Leather has gone though a few stages. It began as a one-man experiment with a dark electric sound. Then it grew to a full out pseudo-goth-synth band that was very tongue in cheek. This first song comes from that stage- so overly gawf it's comical. The music is very enjoyable. IMO. This next song is from a slightly later stage in Digital Leather's sound. Instead of playing super goth, they are playing super gay. Yes, it's silly, but hey, I find it very enjoyable. Because this is one of their most novel songs, I didn't have to upload it myself, somebody else already had. Maindrian wrote: I like 8-Bit things. Lots of lovely 8-Bit music out there these days.

Disco Joined: Aug '11 Posts: 73	Right or wrong, I've found myself jamming out to a lot of country lately. I would like to move out of the city at some point in my life and I do appreciate a good pickup truck and a pretty southern belle. Unfortunately, I don't always find myself listening to old, classic, "good" country like this: Garth Brooks - Friends In Low Places' Sometimes, I find myself listening to new, 'hip' country. It's the equivalent of T-Payne versus the talented 2pac. Like this (which I REALLY REALLY ENJOY, so SHUT UP!): Brooks & Dunn - 'Hillbilly Deluxe' Then, sometimes, I find new country songs that have the heart and quality of the first of the genre. These I really enjoy. Garret Hedlund - 'Chances Are' (this is my favorite of these three)
