My programming playlist consists of mostly
– M83 Electronic/Shoegaze
– Ratatat Chillout
– Eluvium Ambient/Classical
– Sigur Rós Post-rock/Ambient
– Mono Post-rock/Ambient
– Explosions in the Sky Ambient
– Air Ambient
– Brian Eno Ambient
– Godspeed You! Black Emperor Post-rock
– Jesu Post-rock/Drone
– Mogwai Post-rock
– String Quartet Tribute to Coldplay Classical
– Yongfook (Jon Yongfook Cockle) Ambient
Mostly ambient, post-rock, drone, and chillout. Either no vocals or ambient vocals. About 280 tracks in total, about 25 hours.
Hit shuffle on that, and I have myself a killer well-mixed playlist in terms of variety, tempo, and genre selection.
- pz 18y agoamen! godspeed is a must have. i definitely prefer repetitive or ambient, non-lyrical music. sometimes i'll even put on sleep-music albums a couple albums in particular standout: * philip glass & ravi shankar - passages * kawabata makoto (of acid mother temple) - infinite love - i think this album is tuned to my brain's beta wave frequency. its like sonic ritalin * robert rich - somnium for more energy i usually look to montreal. godspeed and silver mt zion always please. a little bit lesser known is "do make say think" who are one of my desert-island bands. and sometimes, just sometimes, i just have to listen to dancey trance music. check out onnomon (who is also, by the way, my brother and an old timey hacker) as a side note, i mostly use rhapsody for online music. its just straightforward and easy... well worth the monthly subscription fee. if only the site was a bit faster. as far as free services go, i really like the spirit of last.fm but pandora's recommendations are consistently better.
- pxlpshr 18y agoNice! Lots of stuff on there I listen to. I have a growing appreciation for Yongfook... I'm using his Sweetcron script (which is brilliantly executed), his other projects are also really well done. It's just him and it amazes me that he has time to pump out his own music. Speaking of which, if you haven't heard this artist yet... you'd probably really like him. He was well known as a designer (iso50.com) and self-produced his own music, equally talented. http://tychomusic.com http://tychomusic.com
