odinz -> RE: Your musical interest apart from Flamenco? (Feb. 19 2013 9:58:33)

Other than Flamenco I like to listen to most genres of music, if the music is well done it is good in my book and I do try to seek out as many kinds of music as possible to find new ways of expressing things. I do tend to listen to romantic era music, I love Chopin with a passion for example, but I also really like bands like Soundgarden, The Black Dahlia Murder, Dimmu Borgir, Ulver, Saetia, Sunny Day Real Estate and stuff.
I have played in a few bands and played Grunge, Melodic Death metal, and what most seem to call post-hardcore these days.
I played rythm guitar and sang/screamed [:)]
Some of my biggest influences though, are : Tom Waits, Skip James, Serj Tankian, From first to last( Heroine album with Sonny Moore as a vocalist, who has now gone on to be known as Skrillex, he really has a really nice voice.
I do sing quite a bit, my voice was sort of my primary intstrument, but as with all things I do I became handicapped in that department and got vocal chord nodes and polyps.
And I do play the piano, but my finger and hand problems are an even greater handicap there than on the guitar.
For electronic music I use ableton live and make random stuff once in a while.
And as a child I learned to play the zither and the hardingfele from a relative, though I am far from a virtuoso I do like Norwegian music alot.
Oh and Led Zeppelin and Kansas are like obviously in there for most but yeah, needs a mention.[;)]
