New Wave Outpost Forum

obviously one of the reasons we're all here is because we have some connection with 80s music or "New Wave" (whatever that is). But is there anything that "trips your trigger" besides the music of the 80s?

I Love Love Love 6t's nuggets-type music-which, interestingly enough I got into during the 80s! With all of the psych and garage revival bands and of course, the "nuggets" rekkids by Rhino.

I also love "oldies" and the whole spirit of old time rock 'n roll radio- I think two of the gretest jocks of all time are Art Laboe and Dick Bartley- I collect Art Laboe, Oldies But Goodies, Dick Bartley CDs and "American Gold" radio shows.

Say what ya want about the oldies but there's no doubt Art and Dick know and love the music they play.

I hope this thread isn't too "OT"

P.S. I also collect old 45s from most "rock" eras.

P.P.S. I' also a big fan of "outsider" "weird" "Novelty" recordings

Anything--and I mean ANYTHING--that is Ray Conniff gets me in a good mood. However, I recently bought a Morton Gould record, and that hasn't left my turntable in a week.

I love all the dippy orchestrated 60s stuff; I love classical music; I really love the old records with the pops and crackles in them.

If you mean it, I will make a list for you of albums I can't use. Warning, they are old. An old lady gave me 2 cases of them. I have no idea what the stuff is. You want it, its yours.

Yeah mainly alternative rock I guess 90s grunge,70s like lep Zep, 50s rock n roll, electonica like Madonna NIN Chemical Brothers,pop-punk like Greenday and Good Charlotte, British bands like kaiser Chiefs and Lostprophets, old-skool punk,old-skool rap, some heavy metal/prog I pretty much will listen to anything that sounds good whether it falls into a certain slot or not to be honest. Mainly alternative rock/punk I guess outside newwave for want of a better term! I just LOVE my music!I guess I am a punker at heart thou!LOL

Devolution is real

Musicwise, Madchester and Brit Pop. Also like progressive a lot.
In other areas, I like films a lot and also painting... I'm not a plastic artist but go a lot to museums and expos.
I'm also love science... really do... specially biology and chemistry. I'm not one of those geniuses so I have to study and pay attention to my classes... but what draws me to science is the fact that you are always learning new and exciting stuff. [:D] My sisters always joke and say that I was born with an Alberts' (that's a pretty popular molecular biology book) under my arms.

I love classical, jazz and big band music. I play trombone and French horn (and plan to take up cello this fall!), so that's where my love of that music comes from, I guess.

I like most anything, but Dean Martin, chillout, and classical (baroque), old school hip-hop, and old school country stay in heavy rotation on my iPod.

Southern Rock
Funk
50's Lounge
Cheesy Big Band Music
Polka
Prog Rock

I'm a huge sucker for industrial/EBM/futurepop music.
