@JacobVlijm For a moment there I read "second account" in the sense of a "second coming"! :D

Jacob Vlijm

He, what an unsuspected taste of music :) @ParanoidPanda

user136984

:)

user136984

@JacobVlijm: Yeah, I've stopped listening to rock and that sort of thing now and moved on to slower and more classical music. Not always slower, but grander.

Nathan Osman

Wat. No love for power metal? :P

user136984

Afraid not any more. :P

Nathan Osman

:(

user136984

I require more from the music than can be provided in that type.

user136984

I get more enjoyment from classical music now than I do from others. In terms of their emotional structure they are often much more complex and much deeper. More modern stuff, or even 60s, 70s, 80s stuff, just can't provide that.

Nathan Osman

What you need to do is combine the two.

user136984

I've also started listening to Operas, I should go to another again soon. I haven't been for a while.

Nathan Osman

Two words: Neo-classical metal.

terdon

One word: Jazz

Nathan Osman

:P

user136984

Yeah, I'll go for the Jazz. :P

That's the best you get in more modern times.

user136984

There might be a few exceptions, but this is the case mostly.

just waiting for carrier ports and a few other things

@ParanoidPanda Do so. The breadth and variety you can find in Jazz in unparalleled. The only thing that comes close is Classical.

user136984

With classical music though I feel as though it transports me to a completely different world and tells a story without the need for words with emotion and feeling. I don't know much modern stuff that can do that so well.

terdon

@ParanoidPanda Jazz

user136984

9:21 PM

Yes, I do agree, it is the only thing that comes close, and it could do that, but in a different way. I still prefer classical.

user136984

I prefer that era.

user136984

I feel that Jazz reflects a more modern time.

user136984

More so than the classical at least.

user136984

At least what I have found.

user136984

I guess it might also depend upon the mood you are in.

user136984

9:23 PM

Jazz and classical are both good.

user136984

Wow... This is amazing:

@ParanoidPanda Jazz is really incredibly broad. You can find things that are very close to classical (essentially are classical, just classical with improvisation) and things that are basically thrash. For example, Cecil Taylor or Massada String Trio for the classical and Naked City for the thrash.

And everything in between. Basically, if it's got some improvisation and you don't know what to call it, it's Jazz. Even without improvisation sometimes.

user136984

@terdon: Ok, good to know, I don't know so much Jazz, but I'll have a look at those. :)

Jacob Vlijm

I hate music. Especially classical guitar and jazz.

terdon

Or, if you like Classical, a great entry point would be Dave Brubek Meets Bach‌, a beautiful album where one of the greatest Jazz musicians of all time reinvents Bach, or someone like Jaques Loussier Trio who do all sorts of Jazzy versions of Bach among other Classical musicians.

@JacobVlijm Yeah. Right.

I studied with this guy. Unfortunately he died.
