The 10 Song Shuffle
Not sure if this has been done on this forum, but anyway, couldn't be simpler.
1) Grab your iPod or preferred medium of playing music. 2) Put ALL of the said device onto shuffle/random (no missing out that embarrassing record). 3) List the first 10 songs that come up in order. 4) Highlight in bold your favourite of the selection. 5) Next person comments on your list to make it interactive and initiate banter/mocking of the above persons list. Comment on your favourite song from the list, simply state that you've never heard any of that junk or ridicule the fact that a 20+ male has a Britney Spears song on their iPod. Anyway I'll start us off, enjoy! :shycouch: |
Radiohead - Pyramid Song
The Dø - Aha Method Man - 4:20 Madlib - Full Figure Pockets (Pay Jay) Sage Francis - Runaways Onra & Quetzal - Ya Fohi (interlude) Johnny Cash - Would You Lay WIth Me (In A Field Of Stone) Sonic Youth - Star Power Raphael Saadiq - Never Give You Up Lush - Sunbathing Easy choice for my favourite, don't think that playlist would play too smoothly. |
i've never heard anything by radiohead so i don't really have an opinion on your favorite, but as far as the rest it's a solid list.
the highlights being: johnny cash, method man, and madlib. error by bygones the experience of and by osceola life was real. vital. important/bum guts by kidcrash the final hour by MF DOOM evil gypsy/solomon's theme by sleep greyskull by la quiete gas drawls by MF DOOM potholderz by MF DOOM blue note interlude by madlib fantastic by slum village wow. |
I like doing this, let's see what happens
The Avalanche- Sufjan Stevens I Take All the Blame- Tegan and Sara Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window?- The Hold Steady I Ran (So Far Away)- Tegan and Sara Tiger Mountain Peasant Song- Fleet Foxes Neon Jesus- Crocodiles Raid- Madvillain No More Tears- Andrew Jackson Jihad Two Headed Boy- Neutral Milk Hotel No Other Way- Jack Johnson That was a tough choice for my favorite, all these songs are great. EDIT: The above person really seems to like MF DOOM, which is quite understandable, because he is a very skilled emcee. The rest of the stuff I haven't heard of. |
Black Flag - Police Story
The White Stripes - Ball And Biscuit The Cure - Icing Sugar Mudhoney - You Got It Stiff Little Fingers - Bits Of Kids Janes Addiction - Up The Beach Tool - Parabol The Cure - If Only Tonight We Could Sleep Boards Of Canada - Beware The Friendly Stranger Jefferson Airplane - Somebody To Love Touch choice for my favourite but i went with this one. Slightly confusing song title but it's a cracking song |
^ Not a bad list, I'm a big fan of Boards Of Canada & THS, can't say much for some of the other bands listed but I've heard them all before
Can U Keep A Secret - De La Soul Unemployed Black Astronaut - Busdriver Act one, Scene One - the Fall Of Troy Yesterday's Feelings - the Used (ack) Out At The Pictures - Hot Chip Up Your Sleeve - We Were The States Roses - The Magnetic Fields King's Crossing - Elliott Smith The Monkey's Back - Menomena Reasons - UB40 |

Gigi Rezende) Arcturus - Star-Crossed Archive - Controlling Crowds Seeing Busdriver and De La Soul on it makes my pants happy. |
Wet Tip Hen Ax (Aphex Twin)
To The End (Live In Budokan) (Blur) The Downward Spiral (The Bottom) (NIN) Breaking Into Heaven (Stone Roses) Vlad The Impaler (Kasabian) Day Tripper (The Beatles) Szerencsetlen (Venetian Snares) 12 Ghosts II (NIN) She's Lost Control (Joy Division) End Of The Day (Beck) |
It's a medium list for me. Some of the artists I love: Aphex Twin, Joy Division (favorite song by them), Beck. Some I haven't heard any of much from. Some I just don't really care for. Venetian Snares is the only one I've heard absolutely nothing by.
Cutting Pink With Knives - St. Mark Melvins - (star symbol) Sweep the Leg Johnny - Early October Ladytron - True Mathematics Nine Mile - Sleeping Bag Matty Pop Chart - Jason Dear Iron & Wine and Calexico - History Of Lovers Shocking Pinks - How Am I Not Myself?

Black Crowes- Sometimes Salvation
The Cars- Moving stereo AFI- The Prayer Position RCHP- Fortune faded (live in Hyde Park) ACDC- Rocker Hendrix- Come Down Hard on Me Slightly Stoopid- Basher The Who- Happy Jack...lol Bob Marley- Lively Up yourself Los Lonely Boys- Velvet Sky I picked the Los Lonely Boys song because I haven't heard Velvet Sky in a long time. I don't shuffle that much, I like listening to whole albums, but I do like how shuffle hits that song that you want to hear, but you didn't even know you wanted to hear it. That doesn't make sense. Oh well it's 2am. Regarding Lucifer's list, to be honest I only know four of the bands listed, but Sly and the Family Stone is all I really need to know. :afro: |

I hate lists with song titles before artists! :banghead: Just had to get that off my chest. I find them hard to read, as I don't instantly recognize song names but I do artist names.
------------------ anticipation's list: props for Built to Spill, haven't heard much from the rest so there's not much I can say, but I've been meaning to check out Volta do Mar. Seems like a respectful list though, I don't see anything that I know sucks. ------------------ My shuffle: I use an 8GB Nano so obviously it doesn't hold my entire collection or even everything on my home computer. I change things out on it regularly, but it's still a good representation of what I'm listening to. Haram - Fever Sleep Comus - The Bite Mungolian Jet Set - When You're in Need (Is a Constant Thing in Change) Hot Snakes - Audit in Progress Gotye - Hearts a Mess Spring - Golden Fleece Tool - Rosetta Stoned Eight Frozen Modules - Sexual Rapping Quicksilver Messenger Service - Pride of Man Clark - Totem Crackerjack |

all i know about AtD is the track they had on tony hawk 2 and they split to form the mars volta and... that other band.
so here's my list, i'm too old to have ADD so i'm gonna make a little comment for each tune. Elis Regina - Bala Com Bala - never heard this track before, it's from a thievery corporation compilation of old school verve acts. most excellent old school bossa nova but i'm not sure i dig the reworking. having a cheesy keyboard instead of a real piano is disappointing. RHCP - Walkin' On Down the Road - HELLS MOTHER-EFFING YES!!! old school chilis at their best. flea pulls off an amazing bass line that supports slovak's minimalist guitar parts on the track without ever sounding overpowering. i'll be pleasantly surprised if anything tops this track. Stan Getz & Luis Bonfa - Ebony Samba - from the Jazz Samba Encore! album, i have yet to hear a melodic jazz album i prefer over this one. Maria Toledo's vocal's are subtle yet divine, never singing actual words but adding that certain special element to make this track great. although ultimately i prefer the alternate take. The Beatles - Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except me and my Monkey. - i guess it would have been considered super trippy back in the day but quite frankly there are only a handful of beatles tunes that do it for me, this is not one of them. Frank Zappa - RDNZL - i can always count of any randomizer to pull at least 1 Zappa tune i've never heard before. it's track 12 from something i don't know. it's like all those other Zappa instrumentals that starts with random jazzy sounding instrumentation that peaks for a noodly fuzzed out guitar solo, weird percussive break, then another busy out. really digging the fact that it goes to a piano solo for the last 3rd. Mondo Generator - Open Up and Bleed for Me - while i do enjoy a fair amount of MG's stuff i find Oliveri to be a bit one dimensional in his songwriting his main theme seems to be 'WAAAHHHHH!!! look at how messed up I am' The Pixies - Debaser - i know i 'should' like the pixies, a friend of mine hooked me up with their catalog, but ultimately, i think they're one of those 'time and place' bands and never really clicked for me. on the plus side, any time i hear them i automatically remember cruising around town in my friend's old '92 ford tempo about 10 years ago, and 'that' makes me happy. Frank Zappa - He's so g.ay- one of those Zappa songs where he just talk / sings throughout the song, the 'straight' guy talking through the track annoys me, but it's nothing compared to the backing track. Nirvana - Paper Cuts - another track that eluded my ears over the years. sounds like nirvana trying to do an alice in chains tune. interesting as an oddity but that's about it. Nirvana - On a Plain - live in tokyo february 19, 1992. it's a by the numbers take on the album track, nothing really notable with this version. ----- overall i was expecting the zappa double hit, didn't see the double nirvana coming at all, especially not back to back. either way RHCP for the biggest win of that list by a whole freaking lot. |

Eyedea Old Man Gloom - Accord-o-matic Cymande - Dove Willy Deville - I Call your name |
Damn you and your bands I've never heard of.
I've heard bits and pieces of Whitehouse's eariler stuff (plus Dans :( ) and I thinks its alright. Spiders Eat Babies- Fly Frost*- Snowman Jeff Buckley- Lover, you should have come over Black Violin- Missing You At the Drive-In- Ticklish Beck- Ramshackle Neutral Milk Hotel- Where You'll fine me now Green Day- When I come around Arcade Fire- Crown of Love Spiders Eat Babies- Tuff Gai Key: Bold= best track Blue= cool Gray= yawn Red= tardcore I reckon it's a baby sammich. |
^ I'm sad that Green Day is your best track and also that you yawned at Jeff Buckley.

Tori Amos - Fat Slut 8. The Shins - Know Your Onion! 9. Karnivool - Some More of the Same 10. Beck - Chemtrails I can't pick a favourite. |

Promised Land - The Style Council A Solid Bond in your Heart - The Style Council Interstellar Overdrive - Pink Floyd Open Book - Cake Broken Train - Beck Filipino Box Spring Hog - Tom Waits |

user above me, other than The Style Council, which i've never heard, damn good list so here's mine now Mr. Bungle-Quote Unquote Agoraphobic Nosebleed-The Artificial Religious Experience Butthole Surfers-The Shame of Life Arch Enemy-I Am Legend/Out For Blood Clutch-Walking in the Great Shining Path of Monster Trucks Lamb of God-Blacken the Cursed Sun She & Him-Take It Back Korn-Chi Red Hot Chili Peppers-Knock Me Down Minutemen-Martin's Story guess i'm feeling heavy today |
Antonio's shuffle: Seems decent, love the Mr. Bungle and classic RHCP track. Respect Clutch though I've only heard one album, respect the Minutemen though they haven't fully clicked with me, respect the Butthole Surfers even though I really only like Independent Worm Saloon (what came before is a bit too bizzare/acid for me and what came after was just ok), Korn has some decent stuff but I don't like them very much, and I don't know the rest.
The Yellow Moon Band - "Maybach" ISIS - "Hand of the Host" Diagonal - "Semi-Permiable Menbrain" Pekke Pohjola - "Strange Awakening" Venetian Snares - "Horsey Noisers" maudlin of the Well - "An Excerpt From 6,000,000,000,000 Miles..."
