I usually pull up something from youtube whilst I am online - unless I watching tv.

This is what is on the playlist right now:

nothing beats 80's AOR music

one of many great 80's tunes

Bootleg Neil Young concert from late '90's at MSG in New Your City is in my cassette tape deck currently .....
Prime live concert, a great night of music in the big apple.

On to disc 2 of this with a tall silver can of Asahi after a loooong day. After getting hooked on Youtube discoveries I purposely disconnected my broadband to force myself to collect and listen to more CDs, the way the music I like was meant to be heard:



btw I just use my phone data now. Tethered to my laptop to post this.

I always try to listen to music in the best quality available. Youtube therefore is a nono, it is however sufficient to listen to at work when I am alone in my office
and you can always get a good first impression of a song.

I am listening to a lot of music, all kinds of genre, even though I have to say my favourites are psychedelic trance music, some of the French pop music from the 80s/90s,
1990s Hip Hop, a lot of soundtracks, ambient music, world music such as Kitaro etc.
But I think that you should always listen to in the best quality available and SACD and vinyl give me that satisfaction in many ways.

Today I was listening to the following music on vinyl:

https://www.discogs.com/de/Boards-Of-Ca ... se/5093863 ( great rerelease on vinyl, excellent sound quality, excellent release )
https://www.discogs.com/de/Dire-Straits ... se/1392736 ( got this one at a flea market for 1 € last Saturday, the West German vinyl sounds great )
https://www.discogs.com/de/Various-Jack ... se/8553054 ( excellent rerelease of this excellent soundtrack on 180g vinyl, the CD doesn't even nearly stand a chance )

The rest of the day I spent watching the Olympics

Just recently rediscovered The Cult . . .

She Sells Sanctuary

an awesome band
they had soundtrack tunes in Demons horror movies

I agree but I have many redbook CDs that sound better than my SACDs I think. I don't know anything about vinyl, not my era but the pops and crackles would annoy me I'm sure.

Tonight:



Last track is a masterpiece, ひとつぶの涙

Thank you for the recommendation, forper. Never heard of this album but will check it for sure and let you know what I think of it.

Your statement/opinion is most intriguing, Redbook CDs sounding better than SACDs ? I do have some CDs offering a very nice sound quality indeed such as the Akira
Symphonic Orchestra soundtrack CD ( in my opinion, one of the best sounding CDs of all times ) but I think SACD releases are mostly done with a lot of care and have the
best sound quality of all available media.
In general, however, there are simply too many average sounding CDs which is a shame.

The pops and crackles are vastly overrated in my opinion. I have many vinyl discs at home that I have played quite a lot in my life. I always take good care of
them and I rarely hear loud pops and crackles. You can only hear them if you treat your discs in a really rough manner or if the recording is really quiet.
Plus vinyl has a huge selection of titles and the quality can be very nice indeed but it depends on your setup. The problem is it is not a plug and play system.
But I like the fact you can buy a lot of good titles for litte money and you do not have to worry about rot, etc. I have some discs from the 60s that still play like new.

Hah, I'll have to rewatch Demons so I can hear them!

Here's another band I rediscovered . . .

King's X - "Shot of Love"

Listening to King Crimson's 2015 release of THRAK in remastered stereo CD and lossless MPLS 5.1 mixes.

Also back to basics with Rage Against The Machine (Stereo SACD).

Then back to more quiet times with the re-released LPs of Kings of Convenience (Quiet Is The New Loud and Riot On An Empty Street).

Also became quite fond of a Japanese rock band currently touring the world: ONE OK Rock
Bought ALL their CDs and DVDs in one shot. That didn't happen to me since Hiromi Uehara.

Baby Metal is a lot of fun too!

A few months ago, I discovered Daft Punk and have been listening to them. Really wild electronic music. I have 5 of their albums: Random Access Memories, Human After All, Musique Vol. 1, Alive and Discovery. I am certain that I will be buying more in the future.

I also have Devo Greatest Hits for occasional retro listening.

this band you will for sure like
LION - Never surrender - The Wraith soundtrack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rptQtqq2CYc

Animotion - staring down the demons - Thrashin' soundtrack
Animotion was a real no.1 hit band

Whitesnake - Still of the night vídeo (Tawny Kitaen :] )

Put on an old classic. I have an Amiga I could play these on, but I usually just use my MS-DOS computer with Gravis Ultrasound MAX (1MB).
