Hi,
Some people just never quit, or even read anything on this board. How sad. Treating all this like top ten! Exactly what the music that we love is not at all, and doesn't want to be!
With that said:
No favorite bands since all the music is good, and I love music, not prog!
No Prog Sub-Genres or Types since these are not even close to what most artists are about, and tends to limit what any artist is capable of doing. So Vincent Price is only a horror actor and an idiot as a serious actor, just because that's all you can accept? How would you feel if you were him? Or Christopher Lee? No Favorite Non-Prog Genres since music is music, and saying that eastern music is worse than rock'n'roll or Eric Clapton is so ethnocentric that you would get a failing grade in school.
No Favorite Decades in Music since there has always been music in the history of mankind. But I am not sure that you can appreciate a lot of it. I'm of the opinion that those kinds of questions are not serious enough for you to discuss "music"! That simple! But if you want to write a book on the socio-economic bs of these for your dissertation go ahead. Hint .. you might only be able to do this in Berkeley! Because too much of the stuff that you wish to honor is not even considered, and I'm not sure that you have any idea as to why that is so! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

Favourite Three Bands: Queen, Jethro Tull, Rush
Favourite Prog Sub-Genres: Eclectic Prog, RIO/Avant Prog, Progressive Electronic Favourite Non-Prog Genres: Experimental/industrial/ambient/noise, 50's Lounge/exotica, 30's Jazz/Vocal Favourite Decades in Music: 70's, 50's, 30's. This was extremely tough. I love a lot of music from the 60's (Beach Boys, Zombies, Kinks) and the 80's (Oingo Boingo, B-52's) and I also love classical music, so picking three of each was a real challenge. -------------

it would be hard for me to name 3 favorite bands; there are so many I like. I will pick 3 for now, but it is totally possible, nay almost sure,I will pick 3 others tomorrow: Hawkwind, Gong, Magma. or shall I pick Embryo, Can and VdGG? and what about King Crimson, Amon Düül 2 and the Residents? nay, impossible task. favorite musical decade? absolutely unanswerable, unless it means favorite decade of prog; then I'll go with 70s, 60s, 00s. favorite three sub-genres: Krautrock, space-rock, the third is a battle between RIO, jazz-rock, Zeuhl and the in my opinion either misnamed or misused category folk prog (I'd be more happy with "ethnic prog" as sub category). as to favorite non-prog genres: jazz, classical music (another misnomer; there are so many different styles which are sub-summarized under this category; baroque music has nothing at all to do with music of the impressionists, for example), Indian music -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

Sure. Minimal Music is a bit of a misnomer; the big names here are Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Terry Riley. It's not really that "minimal" at all; it can seem repetitive at first, but really it just develops over longer periods of time. Chiptune is any music directly or indirectly related to 8-bit computers like Commodore 64, Nintendo Entertainment System etc, or more rarely 16-bit computers like Commodore Amiga and Atari ST. That is, music either made on those computers (or a combination of them), or covers of old video game music with any kind of instrumentation, or just music loosely inspired by it. |

Actually he put quite well what I was going to say which is with so much good stuff out there, picking favorites can be a bit of pointless exercise. Still can be fun though. I mean pointless exercises in typing is what the forums are all about. Yeah, yeah, sometimes some of us make some good points. I try to interject humor as much as possible. I know some you just aren't sophisticated enough to appreciate my stuff, but I've come to accept it. OK I've got to stop now. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I have to put in a shameless plug - a buddy of mine (who does the audio in games that we make together) does chiptunes under the name of "Bit Rat". He recently released his first full length album under that name and apparently it has been getting pretty good reviews, even being compared to some of the big names (I think) in the scene (although I don't know who they are, as I don't really listen to chiptunes myself xD). You might be interested - his site is here: http://www.josiahtobin.com/bit_rat/index.html - http://www.josiahtobin.com/bit_rat/index.html |

Nice stuff. I like a bit of chiptune goodness every now and again, but I've yet to discover someone who's really pushing it into new territory. http://anamanaguchi.com/ - These guys are pretty good, but it's all a wee bit inanely poppy. Ultimately, it all just sounds like fantasy game music, but I'm sure one day it could go way beyond that. |

As some mentioned it is impossible. Especially 3 favorite bands but lets give it a try :
bands - King crimson, VDGG, Robert Wyatt
Sub-genres - Hard prog (most of it is classified here as eclectik), Acid folk, R-I-O
non prog genres - ECM jazz-rock (Webber, Micus, Hussain etc), Baroque (Bach, Vivaldi, Corelli), Modern classic (Stravinsky, Rimsky-Korsakov)
Decades - 1970-1979, 1890-1899, around 1700 I think. ------------- omri |

I have a really hard problem narrowing prog music down like that. Much easier if you haven't explored too much. Easiest being the decades the hardest picking favorites (I mean if you had more than three kids, would you be able to do it?). As long as this isn't an essay question, I will answer.

Favorite Three Bands: Steely Dan, King Crimson, Gentle Giant (since Steely Dan are on this site, but if you want something more progressive, you can substitute them for Caravan or even Jethro Tull) Favorite Prog Subgenres: I'm not sure how to classify most of these, but it seems to be prog/folk a la Jethro Tull and Renaissance, the kind of heavy, personality-deprived stuff King Crimson or Pink Floyd do, and then, I suppose, jazz-flavored prog: Caravan, Santana, and so on. Favorite Non-prog genres: Again, I'm always hard-pressed to say what type of music I like because as soon as I say I like jazz somebody will want to tell me about some hideous Ornette Coleman album or something. But, I'll say my favorite non-prog genres are hard rock (like Mountain, Blue Oyster Cult, etc.), jazz, and country/folk. Favorite Decades: The 60s, the 70s, and then 90s. Skip the 80s entirely, they were horrible. At least the 90s gave us Ween and Primus. |
