Your Personal Soundtrack

Early morning weekdays...chilled electronica but not TOO ambient. Stuff like Kruder & Dorfmeister, tunes from the Ambient Dub series, Klaus Schulze.
Early morning weekends...classic hard bop usually or maybe some classical guitar pieces.
While driving for work I almost always listen to episodes of This American Life. Nothing makes the drive zoom by like those.
I have a little ritual of playing The Smiths-The Queen Is Dead while either cooking or washing dishes.
Hanging out Fri-Sat night wig friend usually means a wellthought out playlist thru iTunes. It's always a very eclectic set that will go thru all the genres I love.
This forum does not like iPhones. I can't even move the cursor to fix a few typos.

Kind of like mellow tubey magic. I have a small collection of 200 albums (1950s to today) but love a warm soundstage and simple playing. For classics, I love the first three Band albums (Chestfever!), most of the early Bob Marley catalog, mid 70s Neil Young (On the Beach and American Stars and Bars), 1980s Los Lobos (Kiko) and Replacements for roots rock. I think that Radiohead has owned the last two decades for interesting and evolving work. For contemporary artists, Dave Alvin and Cat Power seem to best capture that organic sound. I also love everything that Daniel Lanois has produced.

Bongofury,

Thank you for your suggestions on the music you like.

For this thread, we are also discussing how everyone incorporates music into their life - so how does music accompany you during what time(s) day(s) and activities in your life, hence your "personal soundtrack."

I just remember that I listen to a lot of Coldplay and Moby while I workout. I think this confession will force me to give back my "Audiophile Member Card". :D
