It's got to have fairly long stretches with no words (just music or beat or something) so we can use it under dialogue. It's gotta be serious, and it's gotta be gritty. I'm thinking something actually about prison or getting busted or something. Something about how much it sucks to be prison. Not "boo yah, bein' a gangsta rules", but more "damn, i miss my kids and my girl" sorta stuff. Gettin' it?

Bluesy, soulful is good. Cheery bad.

Thanks much.

definitely the best acoustic ever!

To make it brief, my taste in music has gone through a lot of different changes, and these last couple years I've found myself getting into a wide variety of softer stuff. For example, some of my favorites this year are:

Patrick Watson - Wooden Arms
Andrew Bird - Noble Beast
Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest

I tend to get really picky with the style of harder music and strongly dislike metal, such as the new Mastadon album, which I tried to enjoy. Some of the heavier things I've enjoyed this year are:

The Flaming Lips - Embryonic
The Mars Volta - Octahedron

I know those two are particularly "hard" or "heavy", but there in lies my problem. Where do I go?

That's what she said.

Why are you trying to force yourself to like something that you really don't like? It doesn't make much sense to me, but okay.

Give these a try:

The Deftones - White Pony or Saturday Night Wrist
The Pixies - Doolittle or Surfer Rosa
Silversun Pickups - Carnavas
Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream

Enjoy

Check out Devin Townsend's solo material, it's heavy but not that abrasive. Best albums to check out would be Teria, Accelerated Evolution, Infinity and Biomech: Ocean Machine in that order.

I need some up beat music similar to kings of leon - taper jean girl, the dandy warhols - bohemian like you or idlewild you held the world in your arms. That sort of stuff.

Hey there!

I need some help finding new great electronic songs, beacuse im getting so sick of the ones i have (a few hundred songs).
I'm a huge electronic music fan, and i like most of it's sub-genres; hardstyle, techno, trance, etc.

But my abselut favorite tech-songs all have something in common (though, i dont really know how to describe it) and it's those "heavy house basslines".

In order for you to understand better what im talking about, please just listen to these songs on youtube just for a few seconds.
Im also going to post how long into these songs that the "heavy house basslines" starts.

Julien Creance - Heatwave(muttonhead remix) (starts at: 0:14)

Dj Tiesto feat. Dizzie Rascal - bad behaviour (starts at: 0:37)

Dizzee Rascal feat. Armand Van Helden - Bonkers (starts at: 1:01)

EDIT: i was unable to post any URL's =(

It's that Deep house-sounding sound which playes along with the bass.
Those are the kind of songs which i love the most, especially if with a fast beat.
So if you could be so kind, and post a few suggestions for songs, or tell me what to search for in order to find more of them, it would be greatly appreciated!

Hoping for any kind of response,
Thank you in advance! ^^,

Kani
