1) squarepusher - when i heard big loada it blew me away.. when port rhombus came on i literally fell out of my chair then started freaking out.. and i asnt on drugs at the time. 2) nofx - the first punk band i ever heard.. and i was a punk rocker for the better part of my youth (and still consider myself more punk rock than anything else). so nofx started all that off. 3) beastie boys - i thought theyre music was fucking crazy, and it was different from most rap. but most of all because of them i started reading up on budhism and tibet, and in general became a lot more aware about the world around me sort of. and they're my favorite band of all time. there';s so many crazy ass stories about them. 4) fatboy slim - yes, it's true. fatboy slim was the first electronica i really took a liking too. so in a way if it wasnt for his music i might've never gotten into idm and all that 5) aphex twin - first 'idm' artist i ever heard of.. i thought he sucked at first, but then i heard stuff off of come to daddy and rdj album and realized that this idm ting was really fucking cool, and through him i got into squarepusher and other idm. yeah |

public enemy - (along with other hip hop artists which encouraged me to listen to John Peel on Radio 1 where me ears were opened up to others like...) napalm death - (who were one of the influences on me going veggie) nirvana - (the reason I joined a band) the fall - (the first non-pop/metal guitar band that opened my ears to the wonderful world of alternative music) julian cope - (the archdrude an inspiration to punky hippies everywhere) |

emotional experience of the music does things to my life: Vladimir Butusov is the one who lured me into the world of music. Best musician in Russia. Autechre made me feel that my introvertedness is ok and made me see beautiful things around me i never noticed AFX discovered electronic music for me NiN helped me survive the darkest parts of my life Rammstein made me a lot of good friends |

5 in not particular order>> michael jackson prodigy aphex twin nirvana korn (korn/life is peachy) optical |
||||||||

|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Nirvana introduced me to rock, Korn introduced me to industrial rock, I lost faith in rock music, after deciding it had nothing to offer me, and was too boring. prodigy introduced me to electronic, then fatboyslim, then AFX, aphex made me appreciate music in a way I never did before, NIN/tool eventually restored my faith in rock, radiohead made me finally realise that there's good music in all genre's, even pop-rock now I listen to all kinds of stuff. |

In no particular order: Nirvana: I was 12 when smells like... came out, a revelation to me. Radiohead: the song street spirit is still the best song ever for me personally, and they got me into several styles of music. Autechre: one "band" having such a varied repertoire. Stratosphere: a friend of mine making ambient. Musically not the best, but he showed me that just normal people like you and me are making music. I knew that off course, but this is just a different way of seeing things. My Dying Bride: Doom metal, what a way of combining heavy guitars with violins, great lyrics as wel, and always a beautiful packaging to their albums. |

1. Most obvious to me is Peter Gabriel... more specificially his albums Passion and Us... Both of these albums helped me through tough times in my life, and helped me see the positive that lay at the end of all that shit... 2. Genesis I guess... old, Peter Gabriel led Genesis... this was the first "strange" music I listened to... music that was away from the norm, and really opened my mind and ears to different styles of music... and I guess helped me have an open mind about all things... 3. I guess another would be Radiohead, as their albums Ok Computer, and Kid A really helped to get me interested in electronic music... 4. Aphex Twin, duh... he was the first IDM type musician I got into... and it really opened up a lot of different ytypes of music to me, partly through this site and reading about artists on here... 5. Ravi Shankar... even though I don't have any albums by him, seeing him play on the woodstock film sparked my interest in Indian music, and especially the sitar which is an amazing instrument... couldn't think of anyone else to put here, so Ravi will do... |

beatles/marvin gaye/60's motown U - led pearl jam/nirvana/alice in chains/trent reznor/beastie boys (various indie, shellac et. al rolling stones, clash) 2 - zeppelin rza/wutang/dj shadow/tricky/roni size/photek/aphex(windowlicker blew me away)/ and most recently autechre et. al that's about 5 right? I don't take back any of it. most of the groups I listened to in like 5th grade (U2 - mysterious ways was the first contemporary pop/rock song I absolutely LOVED, pearl jam) I still listen to now. though I do feel the electronic/experimental movements are more importent/interesting at times |
