DJ sets are a good way of finding new tunes. I've bought loads of artist albums after hearing their tunes played in DJ mixes.

At some god awful training course we had to do that introduce yourselves thing. 3 bits of info one of which was a desert island disc.

I chose John Grant.

No-one had heard of him and it became a thing that wouldn't end for about 15 minutes, and at the lunch break.

Lesson learned.

Next time say Coldplay, it doesn't matter, these people aren't really getting to know you. A week later you won't even remember their names.

Friction.

He only produces Friday night bangers, no less than 180bpm. That's the sort of music I like 😉

How did they manage to hijack the name R&B? It used to mean Rhythm & Blues, and would include The Who, Rolling Stones, Dr Feelgood, The Inmates and other excellent bands. Then suddenly I find that, like a few people above, it now refers to a genre I'm quite happy to exclude from my otherwise varied musical diet.

Earlier, when I said anything except grime, I'm adding this to that list. I want to say....drum and bass? No thanks, sounds like the Cool Boarders 2 soundtrack.

Edit: that said, its only Thursday, maybe I should try again tomorrow 😉

There's R&B then there's new R&B which I flipping detest. I'm talking about r kelly or drake or any of those totally generic over produced (usually by timberland) artists that all use the same song writer and pretty much all sound the same. This stuff seems to be all that the kids are listening to (especially the youngsters at work) just because it's back ground clubby/bar music and doesn't really say anything except how hot the girl they fancy is... Blahh blahh.
I'd wager that no one on here likes or would sit and listen to this vocodered sampled shite. The guys in the gym at work seem to love it too and moan like mad if I get in there first and put something alternative on.
So in answer to the op's question I'd say most stuff is ok just not this radio 1 day time play list crap.

^ I take it that's a genuine song/track and not a 'not the nine o'clock news' style piss take? I can't tell for certain.

I've said before, I like some of it. Listened to a whole album by Jeremih today. Some of it was good, some bad.
Drake as well, some of his stuff is hideous, that Hotline Bling thing, I couldn't believe it was the same person when I first heard it.
Why do "what music do you like" threads turn into "ooh this modern stuff is all rubbish" threads? I dunno. Most of you old bastards are younger than me anyway!

Certainly appears to be a few racists coming out of the closet on this thread.....
