I went back to pages and didn't find a music appreciation thread, so here's a new one! What are you listening to right now? These days? What's stuck in your head.

For me the answer to all three can be found on this playlist. (http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYNKPp9UXPefushs5i0oadrwt9TOmZarS) They have a lot of synthetic sounds on their album stuff but if you're not down with that they also released a lot of acoustic versions. Right now "Yin Yang" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6_qwPfZxo8&list=PLYNKPp9UXPefushs5i0oadrwt9TOmZarS) is my favorite motivational song, but if you want to check out just one song I''d say listen to "This is the Best" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyyFoMHyAkU&list=PLYNKPp9UXPefushs5i0oadrwt9TOmZarS)

What's everyone listening to these days?

Heh, why not. I have been going a bit retro with a lot of music from the nineties. Call it nostalgia but I just feel more comfortable and at home with that going in the background.

I've also added in Trivium and Five Finger Death Punch to my repertoire when i need something heavier and fast paced.

A small contribution from myself... a pair of epic instrumentals.

Thomas Bergersen - That's a Wrap (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1r4G7Coyj5Y)
Valentin Wiest - Kitsune no Yomeiri (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7_Y4Gx0b6E)

And for something a little more esoteric.

Wagakki Band - Senbonzakura (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_xTet06SUo)

I've been listening to Vocoloids all day yesterday. I've also been watching them. Here is a Live Concert for the Hatsune Miku Vocoloid. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rL5YKZ9ecpg)

As the majority of y'all know, I work at a Top 40 station, so that ends up being most of what I listen to throughout the work week. But when I get home, it's all Public Radio Remix, podcasts, 80's revival synthwave like Lazerhawk's "King of the Streets" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjvTy2u9qxE) or Monomer's "Temple" (http://monomer.bandcamp.com/track/temple), or chiptunes like Bomb Boy's "Ignition, Set, GO!" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoO8pOZ36t0) and Anamanaguchi's "My Skateboard Will Go On" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCNfYjZ26ow) (fun fact: That's the song I talk over when I open and close my radio show).

I'm also a big fan of video game cover music. Here's a couple of my faves:

Diggi Dis - "Voodoo, Roots, 'n Grog" from Secret of Monkey Island (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQhtR-yoObs)

virt - "Crystal Flash" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eylUix1yADQ), the epic 20 minute Super Metroid cover

bLiNd - "Slam Shufflin'" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtY1wCvIbno) (On that note, go download "Balance and Ruin", because there is not a single bad track on that FF6 tribute collection.)
