Music Preference?

[Hamburger]

So what are your music preferences? I like smooth jazz and classical music, you? :)

[LGKR]

Wedding marches and funeral dirges. :D

[Attila57]

Rock and pop despite my age :cool: (but I also like classical music; my favorite is Bach)


Attilio

[LGKR]

Seriously, I like music from Classical to Heavy Metal and anything in between. Depends on my mood.

[g.paoletti]

Did you ever listen the songs "Aces High" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO6giM9UAv0) and "Tailgunner" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbMGXXrF7ac) by Iron Maiden?

I like very much rock, soul and pop.

G.

[The Cowman]

Classic Rock, 80s, even some Hair Band... and when I am working on my hobbies I like John Williams, James Horner, Michael Giacchino etc - Movie Scores...

Note that I was raised by two hillbilly parents (I mean that as a compliment), and was thus raised on Country Music. I rebeled against that in my high school years and turned to Rock. However I did end up working as the MC/DJ/Assistant Manager of a very large country Night Club in Central Ohio from 1993-2004. The "Cowman" name has its roots there. You could say I turned to the dark side for a while... and now and then I have a small relapse... shhhh... don't tell anyone! :D :eek:

[Von Pupp]

Voted for rock but generally i prefer pop-rock to heavy metal.Also I don't mind jazz

[Ed2]

Can't beat the 50's & 60's Oldies but goodies.

[Walt Powell]

Waltzes.......and anything you can march to. ;)

[RonaldRS]

i just love it all !!! can't go with it!!!!:)

[pistonpopper]

I like the classical or movie themes when playing war games, it kinda puts things into '"epic" proportions! You know, like "a cast of thousands!" Really puts you in the mood for either a cavalry charge or a bombing run, or what ever your playing. Crazy huh?
Joe

[Von Rotherham]

My personal music tastes are incredibly eclectic, from Black Metal, to Classical, to 70's Krautrock, to Dark Ambient, to Medieval, to folk, to electro, to rock (and/or roll), to disco, to Heavy Metal, to hip hop and rap, to Elvis and of course Johnny Cash. I am no fan of Jazz though, it's the one music genre I can't abide, mainly due to being brought up with it continually on in the background.

As I generally play at my opponents house the music choice is his, so it ranges from bleepy electronica to Tom Waits, to Hawkwind to Monster Magnet (last week).

[Maniac]

Western, Bluegrass, Country (classic though, can't stand most modern 'country').

I also enjoy some classic rock (50s and 60s mostly, but a few things here and there that are newer), plus some classic (when in the UK that's all I listen to, as the rest of the radio is pop rubbish).

[Scott]

Trance. Electronica all the way. Deadmau5 is a favourite.

[Skullduggery]

All sorts from 60's rock to 70's punk Heavy. Metal of all kinds some jazz and 80's new wave like Depeche Mode. then there's always ...GWAR !!!

[CappyTom]

I like big band mostly. But can enjoy all forms from jazz to other and those listed in between.

Tom

[Flying Officer Kyte]

Apart from classical,pop, and jazz, I like electric folk, country, and comic opera.
Rob

[Doug]

I love classical especially Opera. Mozart being my favorate, but I still love all the other classical composers. I lisen to Opera whilst I am working on my model table. But I also like The Door's, Pink-Floyd, Yes, Hendrix, to name but a few, of the real heavy metal groups from the 60's & 70's.

[bsmith13]

I like all sorts of music, though not all jazz, classical, rock or other music is created equal. It really depends on my mood.

[Bixby]

I really like a wide variety of music depending on my mood. We have converted our 1200CD collection to MP3 so we have music on demand through our media center. I use it to make play lists for game nights and poker nights.

Some favourite bands are:
----- ROCK / BLUES -----
Pink Floyd
Peter Gabriel
Uriah Heep
Boston
Jethro Tull
Marcy Playground

Lucky

[MayorJim]

DISCO...70's 80s some 90s rock...classical...no country.

Also...check this one out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FX_ZmCzo6k&feature=related

[Goering Ace]

I love classic rock. Just seems they put more thought and effort into the musical composition back in the 70's and 80's.

I also love progressive rock with bands like RUSH (my favorite) and Dream Theater.

[McKeever]

Big band, swing, the Rat pack, that 1960's Vegas kinda stuff.

[chub]

You really can't beat a bit of Punk or Ska particularly SLF, The Stranglers, The Specials and though its not Ska Madness are legend

[Mike George]

Country Music, or early rock and roll 50's and 60's.

[Propjockey53]

I like it when Schroder plays "Its a long way to Tipperary" for Snoopy!!!! Its a happy jaunty little tune...

[Wodin]

I'm a garage and psych rock obsessive...had a massive collection of CD's that the missus kept...I took just a few...

Also love Jazz but not free jazz. Big band, Swing and some classical aswell as the crooners.

[Raffvantye]

listen to almost anything, but the soulful melodies of rap and house are still elusive.....

[Du doch nicht!]

Give me some Deep Purple and I am happy. Though i like (electric) guitar music in general. From 50s to 00s, as long it has melody and spirit.

[Boney10]

Rock & Pop, Im a 70s lad but like Beethoven too

[AlgyLacey]

Well the tin ear doesn't help and these days I seem to listen mostly to audiobooks or my Kids' music but I like most things in moderation.

Metallica to Mozart and Bix Beiderbecke to Folk (Up to the point where they adopt a nasal tone and think a song with 20 verses is twice as good as a song with ten.

;)

[Diamondback]

Classical and "Other"--most of my Buttkicking Mix is various film-scores, aside from MC Hawking's "Quake Master Mix"--it's Nerdcore, think "Stephen Hawking as brainiac gangsta-rapper". Not for play when kids are around, but if you ever played Quake III Arena in multiplayer you'll get most of it...:)

[Stormkahn]

dammit I ticked all four boxes!!

Beebop Jazz, can't beat spot of Mingus. Anything with distorted guitars unless it comes from Manchester! Beethoven, opera, films scores (13th warrior is a fave) Marley, Zappa....

Generally not the dancey stuff or rap, talk about mood altering, rap makes me crabby so I can't listen to too much Henry Rollins!!

Dave.

[gully_raker]

Old Joke--- I like both types---Country & Western!
Well I do like C & W but also Classical & Ambient with a glass or two of Red (or White) !

Incidently not sure how many of you have heard Garth Brooks version of "Belleau Wood" about the Christmas Truce.
If memory serves me it was on his "Sevens" Album some years back & was excellent.

[gully_raker]

Wedding marches and funeral dirges. :D

Now thats both ends of the Story!!!!!! lol!!!

[petitbilbo]

Progresive rock from the 60s and 70s
Neo-prog
Psychedelic rock
Music in the dialect of my hometown (Cologne, Germany)
Early hard rock (Black Sabbath and such)

Basically, if it's not the modern crap that passes for 'pop music' nowadays, it's OK...

[pivole]

Swing, Black/Norweyan metal, Electro, 90s pop, Good British folk.
Difficult to beat some Glen Miller or jigs and reels.

[CappyTom]

So Diablo Swing Orchestra and Korpiklaani?

[pivole]

Pretty well, yes.

[David Manley]

Anyone who has had a peek at my Ipod or my desktop hard drive would describe my tastes as "eclectic" (or maybe just wierd). I like just about anything as long as it doesn't give me too much of a headache.

Except Bieber, of course

[Badin23]

All of the above and then some. Very eclectic tastes...Punk to Classical, Country to Rap/Hip Hop.

[Scotty]

Metal (Megadeth to 5FDP)
Soundtracks (LOTR, Red Baron)
80's Rock (Q5, Garry Moore)
Classical

Scotty

I remember a s___ bird in a rear squad replying.

[Diamondback]

What, you don't remember the cadence from Full Metal Jacket? It's a "Gunny Remix" of that from R. Lee Ermey's website...

[82fox]

I like rock, classical music (Dvorak, Smetana, Beethoven), but pop one to your liking.

[Justin3.14]

"Wedding marches and funeral dirges."
(He checks his 6)
Duhhhh.... same thing!
Quick/post/close window
In that case, you must love the music from A Clockwork Orange, I think the title theme was the funeral dirge of Queen Mary.

Speaking of the cowbelt, did you see the "carol of the belts" on you tube ;) Check it out, good stuff.

G1

[Jager]

I'm mostly 70s 80s rock for general listning, but like songs from across the spectrum (only exceptions are (c)rap and deep C&W). I like to put on Medieval and Renn music when I'm working on projects, which is mostly banners and garb. Medieval Babes and Anonymous 4 are good ones. Topping the list is Heart and Led Zepplin, but includes all kinds from smooth jazz (was pissed when the smooth jazz station in Cleveland went "Progressive Rock") to metal.

[kombofink]

There is only one: Children of the grave by Black Sabbath.

[Harrier]

There is very little music I don't like. I listen to everything from ancient (as in medieval) stuff to modern crazy stuff like Steve Vai with an orchestra. My tops would be prog rock, '30s stuff like you'd hear in an Astaire & Rogers film, and Romantic era (fave being Tchaikovsky).

My contribution to the aerial combat related list is from Kansas, "Icarus II": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU9mlIHT9JI (warning: the vid is ~7:30 minutes)

For those of you who like classical but only have your own media collection to listen to I offer KMFA (http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/kmfa/ppr/index.shtml) which is a commercial free classical radio station located here in Austin which streams. They play a really good variety of material.

Wedding marches and funeral dirges. :D

You mean there is a difference?:hmm:

[AndrewLupp]

Although I like all sorts of music (except heavy metal) I have always liked SOUNDTRACKS for game playing. Of course the type of soundtrack has to match the genre of game you 're playing. James Horner and John Williams are great for WoW (Once you get Starships and X-wings out of your head.) Especially Apollo 13 (Horner) and Empire of the Sun. (Wiliiams) Pirates of the Caribbean is very cool too. The music for Band of Brothers is amazing. (Michael Kamen) Wow here are so many...

I never thought of playing 40's swing - that seems like a good fit too!

[jhary]

Like andrew but with the diference i hear hard and Heavy and hate Rap.

[Niclas]

Did you guys see my clip above. It surprises me a bit that there are no comments - Not many vids these days feature a Sopwith Triplane that prominently...

Never mind the music, I'm not at all fond of the song myself, even though I love the group.

It is Dawning
Jaroslav Ježek (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaroslav_Je%C5%BEek_%28composer%29)

I am looking into your heart,
when I am singing under your window,
the same words every night, again.

My serenade, my serenade I am singing,
I am looking to the window in vain,
the stars will fading before I sing it once.

it's coming a daylight, wake up, it's coming a daylight,
banish cold dream,
it will be a hot day,
it is time to awaken.

It is dawn over the woods,
stars are pale, it's coming a daylight,
open if you hear my voice,
it comes time,
if you want escape with me.

Moment, just a little moment
before the white day,
It will be the end of the adventure.
it's coming a daylight, it's coming a daylight in the east,
the next day too,
will be like a dream,
if you want to escape with me.

One of my All Time Favorites, Tom.
Always think of Hornblower & Alex Kent's Richard Bolitho novels!:thumbsup:

[Mitchell422]

I'm a product of the 70's rock music. I lived in San Diego during my four years of high school. I went to so many concerts at the sports arena. My first was Led Zeppelin...when it was all said and done. I had dropped over four thousand dollars. I had kept my ticket stubs and wrote on the back if I took a date and went out to dinner before concert, and yes I had a job and paid for it myself.

I like all kinds of music from every decade. Swing, crooners, some country, to rock. My favorite is Jazz. I just love Davis, Coltrane,Monk. I'm talking real Jazz not Kenny G stuff...

I go with trying to get close to "period" music or what I think passes close enough,,Duke Ellington, Armstrong,Billy Holiday,Tom waits ..i have an old download of Over There ,,and L Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma ,,,gives me goose bumps. of course plenty of beer and cognac helps set the mood as well.

[sirosis o liver]

I actually listen to a songs of WWI cd while playing

HEAVY METAL l..l, ,l..l FOREVER!!!!!

[Diamondback]

LOL, you do realize that a lot of Beethoven's work could be considered "Symphonic Heavy Metal," right? :P Personally, my own "metal" preference is a concerto on the Chicago Piano... there really is something almost musical about a Thompson firing on full-auto. :)

yes my favorite classical is beetovens ode to joy. when asked by another metalhead why i liked classical as well i said "its the same thing, music to stir the emotions. its just 300 years older"

[Flying Helmut]

I voted for Rock, but I like anything that isn't rap (which really should be spelled with a silent capital 'C')

[Diamondback]

... rap (which really should be spelled with a silent capital 'C')
QFT!

[flyingryno]

rock, new age, jazz, but not western, or Rap!!!!

[tikkifriend]

Gotta be the 70's. Bowie and Bolan/ Lou Reed and the rest of the Factory. Prog rock , (Genesis, ELP, King Crimson), Yes in particular. Sprinkle in a bit of Zep for the quieter moments :) and a bit of punk . Stir continuously for a decade and enjoy on ice.

[tikkifriend]

Oh forgot (how could I !!) Pink Floyd..

[Boney10]

Yay, Floyd, Moody Blues, The Who, Mike Oldfield, Phil Collins, OMD, Ulatravox well you get the picture :)

[Jäger]

I vote for Rammstein anytime!

[tikkifriend]

I vote for Rammstein anytime!

Good group live I heard.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Voted the top three but everything from Beethoven through Nat King Cole to Led Zeppelin and all stops in between.

[LOOP]

"I'm a rocker" as the late Mr Lynott sang.
I listen to both classic rock and more modern stuff. If it has a blues-feel to it, it is right up my sleeve ;)

Listen to "Rival sons" or "The Temperence movement" and you see what I mean :singin:

[grumpybear]

A bit of everything except rap

[LOOP]

A bit of everything except rap

But you play with it ;)

[HotleadColdfeet]

As others before me have mentioned, I like a wide variety based on my mood. ;)

I like Classical music (Bach's Brandenburg concertos are very good), some 80's Rock/pop (Survivor, "Mighty Wings" from the Top Gun soundtrack, and Billy Joel - though he kinda is a category in and of himself), southern gospel (Kingdom Heirs, Triumphant Quartet), Christian contemporary (David Crowder*Band, TobyMac, Seven Places), soundtracks to movies (Gettysburg by Randy Edelman), and a little country (Josh Turner, Rascal Flatts).

Here's one by David Crowder*Band I've been listening to recently:

[Hedeby]

Hmm let me see - the word eclectic springs to mind...

Jimi Hendrix
Pink Floyd
Hawkwind
Tangerine Dream (pre 1984)
Rammstein (best live band EVER)
Mogwai
Jethro Tull
The Cure
Black Sabbath
Type O Negative
Bauhaus
The Damned
The Stranglers
Siouxsie and the Banshees

Some modern prog: Touchstone, Mostly Autumn, Solstice

Music is a mood thing for me, what I listen to varies but my favourites over time have to be Pink Floyd, Hawkwind and Jethro Tull and Rammstein

[Hedeby]

Good group live I heard.

Unbelievable Paul.... amazing (think I have seen them four times now)

[Tonx]

I vote for Rammstein anytime!

Possibly the biggest +1 :salute: ever known to the Aerodrome on this one!

Not to be morbid but Reise Reise is being played at my funeral at FULL blast - two of my female friends Down Under are going to ensure this happens. Got this idea from a friend of mine who was Saddleworth born Saddleworth bred Saddleworth-wide known and Saddleworth dead aged 56. Meatloaf's Bat out of Hell was played at his funeral at full blast and heard about half a mile away. RIP Broddy!

Rammstein make regular appearances at the Download Festival which is held at Donington Racing Circuit every year. Used to be better when known as Donington Monsters of Rock Festival until 2001 ...

[Setarius]

I voted for Other, because I prefer Rock, not Rap, and also like Jazz, Classical, and some Blugrass. I'm not fond of Country music, they cry in their beer too much.

[Blackronin]

I love many kinds of music so I checked all.
I also hate a few...

[Canestri10]

Southern Gospel & Christian contemporary mainly but I do like some James Taylor and Eric Clapton every now and then. Not a fan of loud noise (rock & rap) . Love the acoustic guitar too.

[surfimp]

I love all sorts of music... my opinion is that good music is good, regardless of what language it's in (if it has lyrics), what genre it's from, or where it comes from. I'll listen to anything that has a good groove and touches my soul in some way or another.

For tabletop gaming, I like quiet instrumental electronic music like Boards of Canada. I find it helps me focus, and it doesn't intrude on the conversation with my fellow players.

As a background for WGF gaming i have a youtube collection of Historic Aviation Film Unit videos featuring WWI aircraft sounds........

[NewFlyBoy]

I voted for classical and "other" -- that being musical theater and film music -- my youngest daughter is in the industry and I've been exposed to some very cool music as a result.

[Teaticket]

I'd say Classical and other. Mozart and Beethoven rule but the cd player also shares time with Above & Beyond, Enya, Loreena McKennet, Chris DeBurgh, Andrea Bochelli and more.

Wow, someone else who knows who Loreena McKennet is?! Love that genre.

Southern NZ or US? ;)

If you like the genre, try out Zradio.com out of Orlando. They have four Christian stations; contemporary, rock, gospel, and hip-hop. My boys and I listen to the rock station a lot.

[Teaticket]

Most have never heard of her. I have been lucky to have been to three of her concerts. Truly amazing.
