Sticky: The OFFICIAL Recommendation Thread

[DRONEsaurus Rex]

Masquerade Houses

I need to expand my taste in rap. I listen to Cannibal Ox, Mos Def, and Wu-Tang Clan but that's about it.

NWA and Public Enemy are mandatory listening for anyone who likes rap, of course.

The Main Music Recommendation Circus: Serious Business

There's been a plethora of recommendation threads lately, and this needs to stop and to a degree be lightened. Suggested by Moonlight Agony that I do a version of this thread for the Main Music Forum, I think it's a great idea and I've tried to get Maggie to talk about it, so I'm unaware about this being within rules. But as long as this isn't spam, reduces repeat threads, and such; I think the moderators and other faculty won't mind. So pick up a chair and enjoy.

Guidelines

Ask for music requests only.
Do not ask for download links.
Do not ask for album uploads.
Do not continuously quote your own request post.
Do not argue / bicker about genres.
Do not spam, obviously.
Do not troll / flamebait.
Do not reply to flamebait / trolls / spam.

Also, "please, do not post a humongous list of bands you are currently fellating over. This isn't a thread to list bands; it's a thread to give recommendations in detail to those who ask for them." People who break the terms will be blocked. So lets get to it. Reccomendations? Well we have certain regulars I'm sure who can cover each subject. Just ask.

So basically I want some new artists to listen to. I am looking for that rock/pop/electro stuff. Also some artists that sound like Owl City(I am sick if everyone obsessing over him here now;P) Or just any good songs you like. If I like it alot I tip. Thanks(:

I'm looking for some new music to listen to (:
I love alternative, rock/pop, and electronic (which is really growing on me.)
I have 2,000+ songs, which only take up 7GB and I really want to justify my 80GB (:
