HEY GUYS

Here is a new recommendation thread with a new concept.

This topic is where someone will post if they want to be recommended bands from a specific genre.

No one wants to read lists of your favourite bands so only post here if you want to know about a certain genre or band and then only post if you are recommending that person some good bands from that genre which will help them get into it.

Get it? Cool I'll go first cause I legimately want to know about some good classic progressive rock, I'd like to hear some cool concept albums also (any concept albums like prog,rap whatever), please don't forget to actually explain why these are any good!

To solve any confusion with multiple recommendations make sure you either bold what you want to be recommended or who you are recommending for.

If its not too much work it might be a good idea to have people bold what genre the music they are recommending is and then just look through and edit the first post with Blue Grass Recommendations: x, y, z or whatever

Man, can you clear up the Genesis Part. For almost a year now, I've been meaning to check out Genesis, but I always hear, "Heh Only listen to when they had ______ as the singer" and I always forget the name.

Just describe what you are after, I'm sure everyone will understand what you mean.

nah I think that might be too much work.

like first of all BLUE GRASS itself contains so much, and then if you stretch that to punk you've got McClusky punk and Black Flag punk and all these genres and time periods and then eventually the metal guys will show up and be like ANARCHOSYMPHONIC PROG PLEASE.

imho just have people ask WHO SOUNDS LIKE X?

Well I only meant a basis of what the people asked for so if someone comes in asking for anarchosymphonic prog then it would just be "Hey here are all the responses to this post." Which admittedly is kind of a lot to ask from one person, but I was just throwing the idea out there. It just seems to me that if a couple people make requests real close together the answers that follow will be a jumble of a different genres, but it probably wont be that bad.

So if there are a few recommendation requests. The person needs to either bold what they want recommended or who they are recommending for.

Ok so I am requesting minimalistic techno

I dont' want minimalistic house or similar genres (as Akufen & Ricardo Vil.) since i've already heard enough of that to for now fullfill my needs, but I'm really interested in minimalistic techno genres that have ties to the old detroit scene or the deep techno genre. Anyone?

and yeah genesis is in the petting zoo?

Minimalistic techno huh? I honestly can't think of a thing. Maybe trip hop or something is the closest thing which comes to mind.

Thanks for the recommendations rockman and steel.

no I don't want triphop I want minimalistic techno!

Minimalistic Techno? Sorry, I don't even know what that is.

I'm looking for some World/Folk music besides Enya.

World/Folk Music- Besides Enya

Maybe try Deep Forest

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Forest

I remember hearing a few songs by them when I was younger but I'm not too sure what they are like overall.

The only minimalistic techno band I've listened to (or heard of, for that matter) is Junior Boys. This song was the only [slightly] good one I could find on Youtube and it's not very techno-like, but whatever.
EDIT: I see they've got The Equalizer, but this live video doesn't sound as minimalistic as the album version.

actually i withdraw my minimalistic techno.

what I'm really looking for is tech house

(which is more or less a sparse mix of techno and house)

basically something in the vein of this:

(im not very good with genres)

Looking for any good Experimental Metal?? Sort of like the Fantomas and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.

Ah, Deep Forest. I love them. Thanks for the recommendation though. If I already didn't know of them then they would be exactly what I was looking for.
