epic solo song needed

VeggieLover · 12-18-2009, 04:26 PM

All the electro stuff was WAY too heavy in the beat. There isn't any room for actual dance with a beat that heavy. thx tho.

I love feelin' good! great suggestion, thanks! it's actually a very good speed.. im not a HUGE fan of the lyrics, but they aren't bad. on the list it goes

Didn't like "In the Basement" so much, a little too "yell-ey" for the vibe im goin for.

Hound Dog is such a better song when she sings it, and you definitely have a different interpretation of the word "earthy" than I do, which is definitely not a bad thing. Not on the list, but in my library :P

Fever (the recording you suggested) my be my favorite yet...i think the drums and the snaps just do it for me....wow

Flashlight isn't quite the right kind of dancy... neither is Jungle Love or the motown songs....though i DO love them....

and no comment on Happy Valentine's day....

thanks for all the suggestions! any more?

Just so you know the other kinds of music im looking at here is my list thus far (in no particular order):

"Hero of War" by Rise Against
"Silence Followed By a Deafining Roar" by Paul Gilbert

"Apocalypse Please" Muse
"Mr. Blue Sky" ELO
"A Fair Judgement" Opeth
"Fever" Ray Charles and Natalie Cole
"Feeling Good" Nina Simone

EDIT: and "Volcano Suite" Amber Asylum YES i love it Dr. Suessicide!!!!!!! yummy!!!! if i did ballet this would be my song FOR SURE, but as i do not, we shall see.

Not quite sure what you are looking for though, something a little heavier?

Mr. Blue Sky: Love this song! it has the right energy for what want, though it isn't perfect it is now on my list of possibilities, thank you a lot!

A Fair Judgement: again, love the song. It is just a smidge slow, but thats not really a problem. I'd have to edit it/shorten it, and it is a little less happy than I'd originally planned on, but the instrumentalization is what I am looking for. It's on the list!

Let's buy happiness: ummm... interesting. If i was a hip-hop dancer...or a ...something... dancer it would be fun. but the fact is i just can't get my body to move that way lol. Thx tho.

Planxty Noel Hill: aww...I WISH so bad that I had the skills to dance to this! And don't tell me that i do, because really, I have no training in this style at all.

thanks tho

Awsometastic...just post the songs and artists and I'll find them

thx

Right on. Glad you liked it.

This one's a little shorter and faster, but just as good, if not better, in my opinion.

The only thing is, the ending is a little abrupt, so it would take a lot of practice to get used to it.

Jackhammer, none of those songs have quite the vibe im looking for. thanks for the suggestions though. I'm not looking for "heavy" or "light" it just has to be right. Generally speaking too much ruckus in the background (such as obnoxious distortion or cymbal banging) is a no, even though i generally enjoy such music.

Elephant sack.... i think im gonna get to really like Opeth. Thanks. List updated.

"Inertia Creeps".... I like the "cultural feel" that it has, though it is a bit well.. creepy. Is there something similar that isn't so creepy? its on the list anyway.

I tend to go for simple music, tending towards loose and groovy time, generally with a swung feel for being "earthy." So lots of blues, funk, and classic jazz and soul. At least that's what it means to me.

Now that I think I have more of an idea of what you're looking for, I'll see if I can come up with anything else.

VeggieLover · 12-19-2009, 06:22 PM

when i say earthy i mean literally like, diggin in the dirt type music.. very simple in that it could be played in a circle, crosslegged, with all my musical friends without much hassle. Though obviously, not all of the songs on the list (or any of them really) fit that discripition) im anxious to see more suggestions!
