Hey, I read somewhere that you only download records, as opposed to buying them. If that's the case, any recommendations? I got 100 CD-Rs and am always lookin' for new music. Others, feel free to make suggestions, too! All recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I guess if I had to recommend 10 albums off the top of my head(that aren't Aphex Twin):
The Beatles- White Album The Beatles- Abbey Road The Beatles- Revolver Pink Floyd- Piper at the Gates of Dawn Rolling Stones- Let it Bleed Sloan- One Chord to Another The Who- Live at Leeds King Crimson- In the Court of the Crimson King The Kinks- Something Else by the Kinks The Who- The Who Sell Out
I dunno, I'm just in a big classic rock mood today, I guess!

Funkmaster your music tastes suck;p no not really..but your tastes seem to that of a 60 years retired accountant..you and Opheks suffer from what we like to call young foggeyism...I mean Genesis (Peter Gabriel genesis), Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin,
Peter Gabriel solo, Afro Celt Sound System, Steely Dan, U2,
etc, etc, etc... are not bad per say neither are the Beatles etc..but..um...
you are listening to higly complex, boundry shattering stuff like Aphex and on the other these easy listening classic rock station fodder...just doesnt compute in my head

I'm a rocker at heart... the Beatles just amaze me, listening to them is always a breath of fresh air.
The electronic stuff may be more ''complex'', but I'd take a kick ass Who song with them smashing all their instruments over the most mind bending drill and bass or ambient any time... though I love both. I get the best of both worlds, so that's not so bad at all!
It's a cool contrast, hearing Autechre and then putting in some Pink Floyd... I just love the way they ''clash''... I love classic rock. Listening to Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks right now.

Lately it's 70/30 electronic music... but I always go back to classic rock. And I ALWAYS go back to the Beatles.
I listen to some challenging music, but I love the more ''simple'' stuff, too... a well written pop masterpiece by Lennon or Townshend always impresses me more than some artsy pretentious wanker that locks cats in washing machines and records the results and filters through ten machines and cuts and pastes it to oblivion and overlaps an orchestra of chainsaws and kazoos and lazer beams over it.

I love the beatles--always have, always will. The White Album and Revolver are masterpieces, and lots of those tracks are boundry-shattering.

well, I like different styles of music for different moods... I don't want super, highly intellictual music all the time, sometimes I just want to relax with some beautiful music feeding into my brain that I don't have to think too much about... I like most all styles of music for different reasons...
