Erhm....

First of all, please forgive my TOTAL ignorance in this type of music.

Now, I've always liked some soundtrack songs (i.e. Matrix butt(SHAKIRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) not only) and I've wanted to get more music like that. The problem is that I don't know what kind of music this is called... House? Trance? I wouldn't know. So I'm begging for some help here ass(SHAKIRAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!) to what this kind of music is and any possible suggestions you might have!
Thanks a lot in advance /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
Good... Bad... I'm the guy with the gun...

Allmusic should help you, here's a link to the Electronica music tree (Matrix): http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=73:11605
Here's a link to Sharika that includes genre, style and similar artists: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=am ... 8zefek7gfj

Happywonton: I wouldn't know, butt(SHAKIRAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!) it's possible.
If so, my apologies for the misplacement and please move it where it should be.

DaddyJ thanks a lot for your help!!
The site has a pretty accurate description for Shakira which adds up to its credibility!
Then again, I'm ... at a little loss because there are too many suggestions... I was looking for someone to (maybe) point some fingers.... Maybe....

Check this out G, I would love to help you but Soundtracks come in every musical style, so you gotta give up the name of a song or something.
Give me the name of the Artist and title of the song you like and I'll gladly help you.

ah ok
I managed to confuse you /:D" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt=":D" />
Sorry for that, blame my ignorance... :oops:

Let's use songs from the Matrix soundtrack as an example...

Basically, I want to listen to stuff that sound like:

- The ending of Tetsujin
- Mona Lisa Overdrive (damn I just LOVE the snare intro of this song, I'm dead serious, butt(SHAKIRAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!) the rest is cool too)
- Chateau
- Spybreak (I've heard the rest of the album from Proppellerheads and I like "On her Majesty's Secret Service" butt(SHAKIRAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!) this one was a soundtrack song ass(SHAKIRAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!) well)

I want to listen to songs or music (either way you put it) that sounds similar to this kind of songs... Was this of any help? Please don't tell me I confused you more because next time I'll just have to get a dictionary... /:D" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt=":D" />

Not really a request, and certainly not a post, so it goes in general entertainment disucssion, aka, T.S.S. General... /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I understand now... the songs you listed above all sounded similiar and come from the electonica genre.
Unfortunatly I have to refer you back to allmusic.com where you can listen to small samples for different
albums of artist in that genre. Best of luck and if you find a soundtrack or album that appeals to you let
me know.

Thank you for the motivation DaddyJ /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
I know I have to take my thumb out of my ... Lisa Marie Scott Fantasies (gotca you dirtyheadedbastards!!!!) and just finally give it a try.
The site indeed does look promising, so I will update you here with stuff /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
