    the girlfriend once called it "Godawful Noise". So, my friend & I named our band that.

  • "don't you have anything good" - Kylie Minogue fan
    "It all sounds the same" - from the over 40s
    "rap hop" - an auntie

    or the best was a convo with an in-laws son..
    Me -So what kind of music are you into?
    Kid - Rap!
    Me - Oh, yeah. I'm into hip hop as well.
    Kid - Nah, not that really old music. Stuff like 50 Cent & Eminem.

    Oh!

    Kinda funny, I thought rap was the played out term.

    Hey,

    My mom always asks, referring to whether I'm still producing hip-hop, "You still doin' that boomp-de-boomp stuff?".

    Peace,

  • "Good music"

    Boring reply, I know, but seriously I??ve met very few who didn??t like the kind of music I have. Pretty nice actually...

  • I can't think of anything anyone's said about my music before, but my lady has referred to this board as "My Superfriends"

  • Things I've heard:

    Fusion music
    Repetitious
    Weird
    Asian underground
    Bang-a-ra (actually it's bhangra, thank you)
    World music (the worst!)

    and the best...

    My dad once called it "Lebanese hill tribe music"... go figure

    so true

    It's usually accompanied by an eyeroll and a subtle hint that there's yard/car work to be done.

    By the way, Uncle Pancake's Music still has me chuckling...even though i don't get it. Context?

    this lady I work with here who LOVES bands like Nickelback, BEP, Big and Rich, etc.., asked if I like anything that gets played on the local new rock station. Of course I said "hell no!" she got angry about my music and said this:

    "you listen to that freaky music....well its not even freaky music. Its I DONT KNOW WHAT MUSIC!"


    ok lady.

    Dudes at the local store always try and put aside the "sex jams" that come in, for me.

    Think Uncle Tupelo, Jayhawks etc. In the mid-90s there seemed to be a lot of hipsters obsessed with dusty backroads, small town diners and Neil Young sound-alikes.

  • "Black Bathtub Music" for soul ballads.

    highly doubt it





  • Somebody in this building came up to me this morning asking: were you playing that hardcore music yesterday? It must have been me but I'm puzzled... hardcore?

    The other day a friend was at my place and I was spinning records and after some time he said: "yeah that's all funny but in the end I rather listen to good music like Elvis Costello."

    Mostly though, people describe the stuff I have on as "like filmmusic" or "cult".
