Recently I discovered KoRn and the Stone Roses, though they haven't managed to drive Tool out of my playlist yet.

I have a personal playlist in iTunes that consists out of 30 songs, no less, no more. Whenever I have a new song I dig, an old song must be thrown out of the list. That's how I keep it refreshing. Oh, and put it on random, of course.

Stone Roses sounds familiar but I place any of their songs. Were they popular in the 80's or 90's?

Oh oh oh, if you like indie music, check out "The XX".

Dunno when they were 'hot', I have music in my playlist from several decades (Billy Idol with 'Rebel Yell' is also in there). As long as it sounds good, I don't care when it was made and what genre it is.

By the way, some of the songs of The Stone Roses include 'I Wanna Be Adored' and 'Love Spreads'. If I recall correctly, 'She Bangs The Drums' was also one of their songs, but I'm not sure about that one...

I agree, it doesn't matter how old it is as long as it sounds good.

I looked up those songs you mentioned, I like them. Thanks for the tip.

I really like this guy's stuff

Otherwise I listen to game soundtracks, mod soundtracks, remixes of songs, etc.

EDIT: also orchestral remixes and 8-bit songs/remixes.

Mostly game soundtracks, they seem to be the best non-voice songs.

I do like some remixes too, and some mash-ups and really good, like this guy's stuff:

(Are youtube bars broken? Can't seem to get them to work...)

I expected that Tikimon's theme would crush the more serious sounding effect of Quadraxis's theme, but they blend quite well in this piece.

I'll test with your video:

No, they are fine.
You should only put this bit into the youtube tags: watch?v=0eS7xXY1QGo
Not the whole thing.

Music!
