What kind of music do you want Apolyton Music Station to send?

[Ted Striker]

Hey Paris,

I just checked that station out.

Nice selection.

Now that I'd be willing to participate in. Genres I consider myself a fan of: Punk, Pop, R&B and Reggae. Though I'm really more of a cross-cultural guy, I like some music from all of these genres except Prog-Rock, Metal, and (to a lesser extent) Classical and Jazz.

All the poll is showing is that different people like to listen to different music when playing Meier's stuff. Best perhaps, to try something neutral?

After all - once a genre is picked, which artists??

Without trying to step on anybody's toes, you could always consider listening to the artists on the free music stream "Aairin's Quality Period Music"

http://stations.mp3s.com/stations/228/aairins_quality_period_music.html

Neutral and quality.

And btw - no, I don't get piad for this - just my own compilation of music from mp3.com.

Well, unless there's a mad vote rush, it would seem a good list would have much alt-rock, many classic rock, punk, classical and metal tunes and some electronica, jazz, blues and prog-rock. (I used 15% vote as a kind of limit.) Civ theme's not important. Paris, you listening?

Folks, would it be too pedantic to put up more polls to determine just exactly what kind of punk or classical or metal or so on people want to hear? There's a bit of difference between, say, pop-punk and grindcore.

I think jazz would be great for civ games. There's so much out there that you could never get tired of listening to it.

World-Beat would be great too!

Classical wins because most of those who voted for classic rock, alternative rock, and punk are incompetent and therefore their votes can't count. I'm declaring them incompetent right now. Please, if you voted for classic ock, alternative rock, or punk go to the nearest emergency room and tell them I've declared you incompetent. If they don't know right off who I am you can describe me as a nine foot tall rabbit. Be sure to mention that I'm standing right beside you. They'll know what to do.

Music created wholly or partially using syntesisers and other electronic equipment, and emphasised as such. I mean, practically all new music uses electronic sound modification in some way, but that doesn't make it electronica. Major genres of Electronica historically include Krautrock, Techno, House, Industrial Rock, etc.

You left out DnB (drum and bass) and JUNGLE!! ...and 2 step, garage, trance, progressive trance, epic trance, acid house, progressive house, &c, &c..........

Personally, I think there should be an "other option" where you can fill in what you want, because there are so many different music styles out there you can't really break them down into 15 categories (and one of those genres is Civ-themed songs, lol).

For instance (not that I'd vote for this category or anything) where would "New Age" fall?

on a side note...Yay for alt-rock!
