Well, what else could you expect from those awesome guitar riffs and mind-blowing solos? I guess they are too good to be true :(

@james

you do know that dragon force doesn't actually do their own stuff, right? they synthesize just about all of it. i went to one of their live concerts and they sucked.

Chris, your music selection is win.

As for me, I reside mostly in the genre's untainted by mainstreamity, Drill n Bass, IDM, DnB, cinematic breakbeat, and the like.

I just recently discovered drill/drum and bass and IDM, but I have to commend you for excellent musical taste abzebras. There is some seriously good stuff in those particular genres.

While I'm on the subject of electronic music, I'm gonna go ahead and say that, IMHO; breakcore, raggacore, and chiptunes are awesome. That is, of course, in addition to the previously stated subgenres listed by abzebras.

Okay, besides ocean sounds I listen to Canadian 70's rock and this.

We're on a roll :D

Big VSnares fan here, love the genres you posted as well, Jackal.

@abzebras
I've only heard a few of his songs so far, but Venetian Snares is AWESOME. I haven't heard a song I didn't like from the guy.

I heard he's contributing to the next Skinny Puppy album, too. I like SP, I like VSnares, but they've got very different sounds. Can't wait to hear how it turns out!

Also, Babylon Disco is what got me into breakcore. If you haven't heard of him, I reccomend you check out some of his stuff. I saw a post from him on last.fm a while back saying he's got a free album for download if you're interested.

"Reactionary just released my album! www.myspace.com/reactionarypdx !! It's gonna be great!
