Help
I teach at CSU Fresno and spend way too much time and money on my tunes, but it keeps me off those mean, mean streets.

Industrial reworkings of classic Numan tracks (and some new ones) that evoke Bowie and Reznor. When you're tired of Nine Inch Nails, check out these mixes. I especially like the Curve remix of "Down in the Park" (which has always been one of my favorite Numan songs)." less

Global groove electronic ambient sounds inspired by South Asian music. Reminds me a little of Bombay Dub Orchestra. I like it; it's chill-out music with strong instrumentals and interesting vocals. The first track is a good place to start." less

I went through a New Age phase in the 80s (the usual suspects: Mannheim Steamroller, Andreas Vollenwieder, Kitaro, George Winston), and then I left that phase. So it's good to hear some New Age music that doesn't merely tread the same ground that I was familiar with from listening to commercial New Age. A cross between classical, New Age, and spiritual that one can take seriously and seriously enjoy." less

A solid set of enjoyable pop songs from a Scottish band I hadn't ever heard of. Looking forward to listening to this more." less

Very hot and listenable avantgarde jazz with synth underpinnings. I don't have enough jazz in my collection, and it's great to get my ears around free jazz." less

"10 points to xtrev for entire album, Jan. 21, 2008.

I can always count on xtrev to be listening to something great that no one else knows about yet. He helps me keep a little of my edge with all the young hipsters. Cool Nordic electro, but with a warm underbelly. Highly recommended." less

I like this a lot, and am happy to have some more metal in my collection. There's something slightly industrial sounding about this music, and I like the vocals a lot; this is a nice antidote to Evanescence, a band that doesn't much impress me." less

This is something I would never have downloaded (or even heard of, perhaps), had I not been soliciting random recommendations. I had no idea that anyone was recording music like this in the 90s. I'm happy to be able to explore big, orchestral prog rock more." less

"8 points to abis for the entire album, Jan. 21, 2008.

Beautiful moody, contemplative songs sung by a rich, velvety (I think) baritone voice that somehow reminds me of Antony Hegarty in its slight sense of fragility." less

"11 points to Nereffid for entire album, Jan. 21, 2008.

This a lovely album of mostly 20th-century choral/male vocal ensemble works. Spiritually uplifting in the best sense of that phrase." less

"9 points to electricity for entire album, Jan. 21, 2008

very cool post-rock sounds with solid vocals. i'm sorry i'd never explored Bark Psychosis and its related artists before now." less
