Drum and Bass (Drum n’ Bass?) rules me.
Specifically the music of Black Sun Empire and Pendulum. But I’ve got to check out more stuff in the genre, because then I can actually answer the question “What kind of music do you like?” without having an scrunched up face. Most of this stuff (Pendulum mainly) was used for Eve user videos until their name popped up so much I had to investigate further. Out of the 13 or so tracks on Hold your Colour I’ve got to have listened to 6 or so previously, and it’s always “this was such a hot track in (insert eve-vid here)”. I think it’s the fact that most of the DnB stuff I’ve listened to is very clean - there isn’t a sappy singer most of the time fucking up the music, and when there is voice, it’s there to act as an instrument, and complements the beat/melody. I think that’s part of the reason I can get into jpop more than I can normal pop - I can’t understand whatever the fuck it is they’re saying, so I basically interpret whatever vocals there are as an extra instrument rather than something to listen to.
The only possible downside to getting into this music too much is that I’d move to Europe and become a club hopper for the rest of my life. Which wouldn’t be too bad other than I’d have to learn a whole bunch of languages, but it would force me to finish learning French, which isn’t a bad thing.
