Pretty much what I listen to too; chillout is great for studying to. Add Chicane, Endorphin, Kiva, and Enigma too

Enigma is on my list of chanting meditating music.

Chicane... has a bit more of a trancey feel to it, Tiesto, Oakie *thumbs up* Well, the new Oakie isn't as good as back in the day.

Silver Mount Zion/Silver Mount Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-la-la Band - a GYBE! sideproject, the very best in my opinion

I was reading an interview with the guys from GYBE, they're psychos, the lot of them haha.

I also hear's there's good stuff out by "Mono" a japanese based rock band, kinda GYBE-esque.

Same with Explosions from the Sky. *thumbs up*

For a lot softer ambience stuff, have a try of Early Day Miners, and Brian Eno.

Cheers,

Wow, someone else out there likes GYBE!!!

She is top.

In fact my wallpaper is an Anna Paquin one atm .....

on a completely different note

*start rant*

Oh and for the record, I think "Cantopop" (gay chow, nick tse, twins and the like) is a really crap and derivative genre. Not only is it completely unoriginal, but it has no personality of its own, borrowing almost completely from standard western pop/dance/rap/hip hop/ R n B music. Its basically western music with cantonese/manderin and broken english....

Also I've seen these so called 'artists' perform 'live' on those award shows and specials, and NONE of them actually sing. They all lip-sync, so not only do they copy western pop music but they copy western pop music practice of lip-syncing and they can't perform their own songs live....

*end of rant*

not in a happy mood atm....

Hm...
Thanx for all the recommendations

I've heard OF their side project but never got a chance to listen to their stuff. btw where can I find their stuff? I'm sure you can't find them in a standard music store, will it be at the Utopia music store in the city?

Also can you recommend specific songs, so I can sample them before I commit to buying an album?

Almost all? Probably not. Give us some examples..?

They all lip-sync? Give examples. Some of the crap singers lip-sync because they can't sing and dance at the same time. You can usually tell if it's sync because if it's not it should sound funni...

Nick Tse, Gay Chow, The Twins... I haven't heard everything but I've heard enough crap to pollute my ears for the rest of my life...

They lip-sync indeed they do, I'm not sure about their actual concerts, but I'm absolutely postive about the special presentations and award shows in their home countries. aforementioned examples, and alot of other that I don't even know their names...

Oh and for your information Victoria Adams, a spice girl, was caught lip-syncing in a REAL concert. Her headset microphone fell off during her dancing and she was booed off stage and was forced to sing for REAL. Lip-syncing is everywhere, practically all pop stars use it. Have you ever seen Pepsi live? Theres a perfect example, practically every pop singer their lip syncs, Britney, S Club, Steps, Cher etc. etc.

J-Rock do not lip sync.

Specially Visual Kei Bands...

KEkEKkekek~

X-JApan!~
