Well...

Seems to be a fair spread of votes there, objections to the categories aside  :wink:

I posted this because I do think that certain music goes well with climbing and particularly the younger, funkier climbing scene rather than the ron hill wearing classic rock listening old bumblies.

The way I see it, hip-hop, breaks, dnb, techno, electronica, and punk/metal all seem to go well with climbing, from what I've seen on videos, this forum, people I know etc. Personally, I find hip-hop and punk/metal go best with bouldering, the latter also goes well with training, dnb and techno go best with routes, and electronica goes best when your ears have started hurting  :wink:

Taking Back Sunday is what i'm listening to at the mo. proper good shit. download 'There's no 'I' In Team' and anyone will be hooked.


No way, I've seen them on Scuzz a few times and can't stand their stuff, I find ther's too many bands about like them, similar kind of thing to story of the year and yellow card?? If I'm thinking of the band.

Personally stick to stuff like black flag, alkaline trio, the vandals, dropkickmurphys and rancid etc.

Used to listen to loads of heavy stuff like neurosis, iron monkey raging speedhorn after going through the nu-metal phase.

oh no, graeme, oh no :cry:  Taking Back Sunday are one the few bands in a saturated and totally ripped off genre that are genuinely talented and not just the usual 'my bird left i'm so sad' emo rubbish. story of the year want shot. they are a fuckin disgrace. they're an awful cross between new found glory and busted. same goes for yellowcard. neither are anything like Taking Back Sunday to be honest.

Techno all the way (Detroit stuff mainly - Jeff Mills and the like), though Hiphop comes a very close second.  Also like electronica in general especially Electro (Dave Clark elecro boogie - classic).  In fact I'll listen to most stuff 'cept for rock and pop shite.

Taking back Sunday the one's that did the video with Flavor Flav?
Take it you don't like NFG then either?
I thought they were quite good, latest albums a let down, sticks and stones was ok though.

As my dancin partners will verify, Its all about the techno, minimilism with personal touches, mills, Richie, green velvet, joey beltram, thats what were talking about. I like techno that has something else, its got to be 'unique' which is where mills and hawtin are miles ahead!

female vocalists are good to :P

Yeke yeke, thats going back some time ago! Still, the stuff back in the day is still well worth a listen(better than a lot of the stuff put out recently or am I getting old?). I've got a very early ministry of sound album thats been a favourite for about 8 years. One cd of bukem, and two others, but its the bukem one that gets played most! What d&b should I be looking for these days?
Looking forward to the new prodigy album.   :P

I like the ruff d&b these days - Kenny Ken / Bryan G and stuff like that - it rocks.

Also like the weird stuff like Squarepusher / Aphex too...

Aphex Twin does some quality stuff- Have you tried that 26 Mixes for Cash album? Some good weird remixes of other peoples stuff.

Aye, got that one - he's also released stuff under loads of pseudonyms ... check his output:

http://www.discogs.com/artist/Aphex+Twin

drukqs is top quality - love it, a mixture of Satie-esque piano pieces and jackhammer breakbeats.

Cool. I was eyeing the Drukqs album in the shop the other day and may have to have a purchase.

Some of us  fools still buy our music in shops!  :wink:  (and the odd one from Itunes, although I've gotta ditch it and get SoulSeek)

Best musucal revolution I stumbled into recently was country via the late Johnny Cash.

Didn't bother with 26 remixes as I had most of them on single from the first time around anyway. Anybody want to buy some off me? The MBM single went ages ago as the Orbital mix gets the kids up everytime; like they discovered it themselves!

Yeah, to be honest there about the only "new" band I've heard for a while that I actually like.

I think I'm just getting old.

No, but I did get the Wall of Sound - Two Culture Clash thingy today.  Really neat CD, not dissimilar in vibe to the Nice up the Dance comp that came out last year from Soul Jazz.  Cool mix of dancehally/raggae type shit from a range of producers and artists.

From being a full on techno head a while back I'm drifting into a wider range of styles - whilst still liking the harder stuff of course.  Been appreciating more hiphop and dancehall stuff for a while.  Must be the wannabee yardie in me...  :lol:
