Here's a novel idea for a thread:
Recommend people a song to download and listen to.

Rules:

-The song has to be relatively new.

-The song can't be too mainstream (ie, not a song you hear on the radio 24/7)

-The song has to be unique, and good.

I'll start: Timbaland- The Way I Are

LDN or Smile by Lily Allen.

LDN is a good tune.

Scooter - "Behind The Cow"

Take my word for it...it's pretty good. If that's not your style, check out

Devin Townsend - "Hyperdrive"

Both songs are within the last year of release. The Devin Townsend one will be on CD soon.

OMG, someone else knows who SCOOTER is? I can't wait to look this song up tonight.

So...what is the working definition of relatively new? Within the last two years?

OMG, someone else knows who SCOOTER is? I can't wait to look this song up tonight.
iTunes them?

I've got the entire Scooter Discography. If you want any...shoot me a message. I'll send albums.

But, since you mentioned Scooter...another great song from the newest album...

"The United Vibe"

The new album is called "The Ultimate Aural Orgasm"

So...what is the working definition of relatively new? Within the last two years?

I guess that works. Two years at oldest.

Scooter - "Behind The Cow"


Ok, so far I have two versions, both of which are drastically different.

version 1 - Scooter - Behind the Cow (Extended Version)

version screaming black guy - Scooter - Behind The Cow (Spencer & Hill Dub Remix).mp3

Seems like a good tune overall. I definitely recognize the background (not surprising, as Scooter frequently steals backgrounds from 80's songs), but I can't quite finger it.

Awesome thread idea I'm always looking for new tunes. I can't currently think of anything decent to offer up.

Here's one: Kanye West - Stronger

It's rapped over a slowed down version of Daft Punk's Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger which if you're not familiar with, you should also check out.

Black Stone Cherry - "Crosstown Woman"

These guys are new, but really impress me. In my opinion, they're adding what's been lost in rock music the last decade or so.

Oh man, thank you for this thread...the best idea! The way I are (Timbaland) is awesome....checking out the rest now.

Where the fuck is kyle on this one? He spouts off all the bands at Dinner in AC and then leaves me wishing I had a photographic memory.

Scooter - "Behind The Cow"

I found out where they ripped the background from. Kim Carnes - Bette Davis Eyes.

In other news, Scooter has some lollerworthy lyrics. Good tunes though.

Some random music, some new, some just jams. Albums..not songs.

Hip-Hop
El-p (El-Producto) "I'll sleep when you're dead"
Sage Francis "Human the Death Dance" and pretty much every album
Jedi Mind Tricks

Indy
Margot and the Nuclear So & So's "Dust of retreat"
Iron & Wine "Creek drank the cradle" & "Woman King"
Q and not U

Metal/Hardcore
Amon Amarth "With Oden on our side"
As Blood Runs Black "Allegiance"

DB/Jungle/etc
Capital J
Dieselboy
DJ Scruff
Easy Star All-Stars "Dub side of the moon"

Lamb Of God - "Redneck"

Roffle @ Scooter

Scooter does have some terrible lyrics.

But the beats are good.

So are all these songs independent or public domain? Where might one download all these legal free songs? lol

Albums..not songs.

Glad to see I'm not the only person that operates that way. Whenever I hear a song I like I just buy the album because there's probably much better gems hiding on there. I would never have discovered Modest Mouse and many of my other fave bands otherwise. The single I first heard was 'ok' but the rest of their work is just mind-blowing at times.

Same goes for the mars volta.. Frances the Mute is an amazing album, the single off of it was obviously just made as a single as all of the other songs on the album are ~20 minutes a piece (split into multiple tracks though)

shareaza

Is that the RIAA's site for free legal music? glad they finally got into that business hahaa

all kidding aside whenever I want a song I get a torrent of the whole album (see above post for reasoning) and put a 48 hour deadline on deleting all the files. if it's good, I buy the album, if it isn't it's gone. If the RIAA comes knocking I won't ever have more than 2 albums of pirated music.

Nice.

Whenever I buy CDs, I rip them into MP3s and promptly give away the CD.

You should probably rip them to a lossless format if you're going to give them away :)

flac ftw (yeah, I run Linux on my ipod to play it :P )

the library is a good place to give them.. also you could try selling them to one of those "used cd" places that resells..

Maroon 5 - Kiwi

Roffle @ Scooter
true. Go watch the music on youtube

*nods* I know Scooter very well.

Holy fudge-stix!

Jakkata - American Dream (Afterlife remix)

Jesus. It's a song to cum for. Lemme see if I can put it up on the server and link you guys, I don't think the mix can be found in too many places.

I've heard all the other versions but this one takes the cake of them all..

He also frequently drunk dials his ex to profess his love for her.

I can see that happening.

Anyone dig Radiohead? I have a pretty hot mix of Street Spirit. If you want I'll upload it and put it out here.

As of late I only fit dark and lonely. But...even those are rare. I've been too happy. I can't listen to much of my old metal anymore. Kinda sucks.

Summers a bitch, eh? I really want to listen to Tools 10,000 days albums but.. I can't, because it's bright, sunny, and very warm outside. I'm stuck with taking back sunday, the used, etc.

At sunset I can listen to Modest Mouse and such but not midday.. even though I'm sitting in a very cold office with no windows it just doesn't seem right to listen to 'heavy' or 'dark' music when it's so nice outside

YES I'M CRAZY.

I'm the same way with food too.. I absolutely can't tolerate pizza or chinese food if it's nice outside. It has to at least be dark and cool

that was secret :(

don't secrets make enemies? :peace:

lol flower child :p

I'm a big Tool fan...but 10,000 days just sounds like Lateralus continued...and more drawn out. I was disappointed.

Where's the radiohead?

50 Cent - I get money.

Hot effing track.

I'll have to check that one out. I haven't been listening to any new music lately. Spending much time getting songs ready for 80's band. It's consuming some life.

The Grits - Ooh Ahh

catchy... stuck in my head.

+1 for anyone who recognizes the song

^Found it on http://spool.fm/ and playing it now.

Seems ok.

(Christian rap? lawlz)

its from Tokyo Drift!

Hahah, oh dear.

I know... but it has a decent beat to it.

Clint Mansell and Kronos Quartet - Together We Will Live Forever

Three Days Grace - "Never Too Late"

The whole new album is pretty good. That's their latest single.

Numa Numa..

Scooter - "The Question Is What Is The Question"

Nightwish - "Amaranth"

:bump:

text sent

huh?

Ghostland Observatory - Heavy Heart

huh?

I told steve to help us revive his music threads.

Ok. I've heard quite a few new songs lately. I think my best suggestion right now is....

I have a few:

Blaqk Audio - "Between Breaths (An XX Perspective)" - CexCells
Julien-K - "Technical Difficulties" - Transformers Soundtrack
Nine Inch Nails - "Capital G" & "My Violent Heart" - Year Zero Also "Starfuckers" - The Fragile

These are all Industrial/Electronic songs

Well, IMO, all songs from the Blaqk Audio CD are excellent, as well as the great noise from the NIN CD.

Slipknot Psychosocial, Why it may not be for everyone but its kinda catchy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i_72iKvbtI

nas - rule
mr j medeiros - constance
mobbstarr & dice - eargasmic <- just catchy lol

N.E.R.D.'s "Seeing Sounds" cd is very catchy. The lyrics aren't that great, but the beats & feeling portrayed in the songs are. Very comedic lyrics (IMO... I'm weird (lol)). Love "Windows" though

Remember the Name.... nice and catchy!

Rise Against - Re-Education (Through Labor)

Kings of Leon - sex on fire

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHhhcKxflMY

Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cKnTLrDbcw

THE ACACIA STRAIN "JFC"

K-os....his new album..titled YES!. The entire album is good

far east moment- "round round"

The Grits - Ooh Ahh
