Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo So what are ya listening to tonight?

Anyone ever hear of, or listen to Girl in a Coma? I just heard them last night.. The lead singer has an amazing voice. Mark should like her. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keUiNjWi-nQ&list=RDxt3nE1YYeH8

Funny... this is what I thought of when I read Girl on a Coma.

Ok, try this cover song they perform... As the World Falls Down.

Watching the Nine Inch Nails 2013 Tension concert from the Staples centre in L.A. on Vevo. For any of you who missed the tour check out this abbreviated release from Trent Reznor. The Blu-ray will be released in the spring 2014. Enjoy!

Listenening to and trying to warm up to the 2009 re-mix re-release of T. Dolby's "The Golden Age of Wireless". Trying to accept it. I loved the original '82 USA vinyl version...a little more organic and gritty. Trying to make friends with this de-balled version. But I hate it that the old version is (dare I say it) 'dust in the wind' - and GONE.

I've been listening to Imagine Dragons, finally. I refused to buy this CD because of the band's dumb name, but recently caved. I really like the CD and find it different, in a good way. Unfortunately, the recording is totally screwed up and some songs play back bloated without detail, where some are very good.

Riding to Richmond with my daughter we listended to First Aid Kit and several others that I can not recall. I rather enjoyed the trip.

I finally got around to purchasing Daft Punk's latest album after continually hearing about how well-recorded it was. While the music itself isn't something that will keep my attention for listen after listen, I can certainly appreciate the care they took in presenting the sound.

It had been a while since I'd played an actual CD and utilized Dolby PLIIx Music mode. I'm usually listening to ripped (albeit losslessly compressed) music with MediaMonkey on my PC while doing other stuff, or listening to my collection via Google Play Music on crappy Bluetooth speakers while getting read in the morning, or at work on M3s at a less-than-ideal distance since we're in a storeroom. When I actually take the time to listen to a well-recorded track or album and use my sound system like it should really be used, it's a reminder of why I got into the hobby.

I've actually only listened to half of the tracks with my full attention, so maybe more of it will grow on me given more exposure. In the meantime, I can at least have fun with the quality of the sound.

I love Daft Punk's "Random Access Memories", except for "Giorgio by Moroder", I've deleted that track from my library.

Ha ha. Really? You dislike it that much?
