thr339z Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 During No Music Week: No hymns will be sung. No records will be played. iPods will be left at home. Rock bands will not rock. Conductors will not take the podium. Decks will not spin. The needle will not drop. The piano lid will not be lifted. Films will have no soundtrack. Jingles will not jangle. Joggers will not whistle. Choirboys will shut their mouths. Recording studios will not roll. Mc’s will not pass the mic. Brass band practice will be postponed. The strings will not serenade. Plectrums will not pluck. Record shops will be closed . And you will not take part in any sort of music whatsoever. Then you will decide what you want from music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Possibly not the most popular suggestion for a music orientated website. I know what I want out of music, and thats why I'm here. I don't need a week of no music to let me know what I want. Example: I like food......If I go for a week without I'm just gonna really want more food. I'm not gonna come back from my fast and think, "ya know what, I've really kinda gone off food, I think I'll go listen to some handbag house" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madz Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Is it deaf awareness week or summat? I truly believe that life would mean less sans music. It's the soundtrack to our lives, yeah, so without it the over all intensity and impact of everything would be markedly diminshed. Which is not to say that I believe that deaf peoples lives have any less meaning than those of the more aurally-able, but my life would be so much less without sound. I remember when I was fourteen, the morning after my first rave (yes, I went home and slept), I woke up and my hearing was fucked. I thought that was it, I'd be aurally impaired for ever more. I actually cried. I don't dance in front of speakers anymore, if I can help it. Come to think of it, why aren't ear plugs more readily available in bars and clubs? No sound would suck. I think I'd go all the way through crazy and come out somewhere north of not-good. ..."I don't think we're in Kansas anymore To-to" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 LOL Handbag house..

thr339z Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 I do agree with all that has been said... I too would be lost with out my morning musical (which consists of playing Geins skin suit sessions 3 ULTRA LOUD!,my neighbours must love me!) "wake up" and music all day at work.. which brings me to my next point Recently at my place of employment I have been undergoing some interesting musical research... now first of all let me outline the demographics of my colleges there are two teams at work, and they consist of 10 people per team at my work it is weighted like this 95% polynesian from south auckland. 2% indian 2% maori and then me a white junglist from newton ciddy. so heres what I have been doing, I have slowly been subverting them with drum and bass.. slowly but surely I have discovered that they dont like BC very much,, but they love natos mix and calibre and anything that is from the 90's IE roni size or early stuff.. Now you maybe sitting there saying to your self "um yeah ryte mr9's " But I have empirical evidence that states that it is working. You see my boss came tto me on saturday waving a piece of paper furiously in my general direction.. I was like "um whats this ,?' as I looked a the piece of paper with a strange graph on it. He then said. " see this side, (the vertical) its times when I have put on your various cds, they are coded with an asterix.., andsee where the peaks are on the horizontal, thats where the number of sales are at their highest, and thats when your music is playing (drum and bass). " He fucking loves it,(my boss) and the proof is in the pudding, Its very interesting watching all these commercial hip hop south siders starting to dig drum and bass... very very interesting hehehehehehe so yes, music is great except for the mainstream, BUT we all know this dont we ....... {18981} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thr339z Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 I despise Handbag House and Handbag Drum N Bass equally (and yes there is such thing) have u got any examples of this "hand bag jungle/drum and bass" that u are taling about? (whilst risking almost an immediate barrage of mocks and taunts) I have been known to be seen at calibre or met getting down to hand bag house... ahhh ! you guys remember jones? on krd... man I had some good nytes there oonsting.... the summer o 99,,(breaking into song) ",me and some guys from school were into hand bag house and we used to have fun, oonstin about at jones on krd,we should have known that hand bag house wasnt the one, billy quit and joey got married, those were the best days of my life, in the summer o 99!"..

Risking? Ensuring. So here goes; Homo! Ass-bandit! fudge-packer It's probably a guilty secret shared by most. When your unenlightened mates are bitching about "always having to go to those drum and bass things" it's just diplomatic to concede their point, stick on a dress and head down to The Met. With a sufficient blood/alcohol level anything is enjoyable. Plus, you can't dance to D'n'B like you can to Electro. Mmmm Electro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grind Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I don't wanna name names because I'm not trying to offend anyones personal tastes, even if these personal tastes happen to be ghey :teef: Put it this way, just because a tune is a dnb tune doesn't make it inherently good, or badbwoy, or whatever, and just because a house tune is a house tune, doesn't mean it is handbag house, or gay, or whatever.. there's some seriously phat house beats out there (nothing mainstream of course) and at least at their gigs there's always lots of girls!!! Nothing like getting down to some battybwoy Hospital records beats on a dancefloor seething with males :teef: Madz - you do that to your boys pockets as well? I find everytime I walk down the FU steps the weights in my pockets increase 3-fold, I accumulate an extra cellphone, gum, some lipstick/gloss? thing and a few other random accessories..
