Well that was interesting. Doesn't really match my taste though.

5/10

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Haha, yeah, that one is out there.

What are you playing this on? Earbuds with no bass or something that has full range?

This one is good if you can have a range

[–] GrammarPolice@piefed.social 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'm using some cheap wired earbuds. I believe they've got a fair bit of bass though.

I like that song a bit better, but i prefer more swing to my jazz: like this. Any idea what language that was btw?

I'll say 6/10 for that one though

They Might Be Giants, "Man It's so Loud in Here"

[–] Interstellar_1@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Can't say I have a all-time favourite but my favourite right now is Watch Your Mouth by The Backseat Lovers. I heard it in a cafe yesterday and got hooked on the band.

"We Can Dream" by Creo (link goes to Tidal)

I can listen to just this song for hours and it doesn't get boring.

Edit: here is YT link if you prefer it.

Hmm. I don't think I've ever tried to decide on a favorite song. I'll have a ponder.

I've been playing this often recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY6RbPaTNUc 5MIINUST x Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (kΓΌll) midagi | Estonia Official Video πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ͺ

[–] GrammarPolice@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Didn't understand a word, but i liked the song. That chorus is madπŸ”₯

8/10

Great song. Could come off as a bit monotonous, but it's still great sonically.

Theme Song for The Secret of Monkey Island (Using the Roland MT-32 which was an external and semi professional music synth device for those that aren't familiar)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3dB0qEcG20

And to show what the difference is and why I find it amazing here is a comparison with just a few seconds of the song on each of a bunch of different sound devices. This was possible with live synth at home in 1990 or actually earlier but this is one of the best examples.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a324ykKV-7Y

Like many people I'm not sure I actually have a real favorite but this is what came to mind first along with several songs from the Chrono Trigger soundtrack. Chrono Trigger is also one of the shining examples of taking a limited older sound device and wringing every last drop of capability out of it. So clearly an obsession of mine with music is created under technical limitations.

[–] GrammarPolice@piefed.social 1 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Not bad. I will say that it lacks a fair bit of variation for my palette.

5/10. If you had instead posted a crono trigger track though, you'd have received a 10/10. The best from that era.

Here's my favourite.

You all have a favorite song?! Been listening to a lot of Kings Of Convenience as of late though. Very Peaceful in those rather turbulent times.

Hans gruber and the die hards - we're all gonna die

Not bad. Fairly catchy

6/10

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (4 children)

Hard to pick a single one, so here are a few:
Destiny Potato - Addict
David Maxim Micic - Where is Now?
Dream Theater - Learning to Live (the version from Live Scenes from New York)
Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation

..I hope you're not short on time. It's all about the buildup.

whoa haven't seen a destiny potato reference in a while. absolute banger of a band tho

Hard to pick a favorite song because it depends on my mood, but this is a goodie.

I've never listened to a French rap song up until this point. It's very catchy. I wish I understood the lyrics though.

7/10

[–] badlotus@discuss.online 1 points 4 days ago

Based lyrics. YouTube can auto-translate.
