Didn't I post in the tracker thread? Of course I'm in bro! :metal

The fact that Katatonia is the first band listed does not bode well for me.

Well, it should bode well for me, but I seem to have lost my roulette superpowers.

Oh yeah no doubt. I do want to listen to that Victory Over the Sun band at some point though.

It's definitely Crow-core, but the song "Madeline Becoming Judy" is quite interesting, I especially like the intro.

Also updated the banned list: added Ulrik Lyngs. Sorry Litho.

Wow, he's already on a banned list.  :lol  You haven't heard his solo piano interpretations of classical pieces though, you might be missing out... 

Overall though, this is the roulette I've been most eagerly anticipating, but am also most nervous about.  I suspect I have the right music, but selecting the right songs, deciding when/if to pursue the themes, only being able to plan ahead so far for them, and using the full range of the scale can make a possible lead evaporate quickly, plenty to overthink.   ;D

So I just checked, and, uh, you are one of the two who haven't sent.

Also, can't wait to come last so I can add 'lube in the face' as the next theme.

Much to my shock, in looking through some artists to send, I found a song that just might sort of work for that theme.  :lol

Haha, oh shit, first band is off the table already. (Lizard band)  ;D

Damn silly quote pyramid thing.

Yeah, I can probably find some decent stuff around that banned list.

Just had to say, that's one bitchin banned list.

Was thinking the same thing...one thing to say for my recent Japanese infatuation, don't have to worry about ban list lol





(seems I don't have to worry about winning roulettes either lol)

ariich

There are artists you've sent me in my roulettes that aren't on the banned list, so yeah I'm pretty sure there are gaps. :lol

Although I can easily conceive of someone sending a song that they love, but maybe they only love that particular album, or even just that song.  I would imagine that the longer you've been in roulettes the more you could drift towards this.  Even participating in as relatively short of a time as I have I've noticed myself loosening my criteria, and have thought about a few of the artists I've sent that I'm not quite as familiar with whether they'd go on my next ban list.

I can see what you're saying. But keep in mind my roulettes are always sending a 20 minute selection of songs or, before that, whole albums. :P

But yeah I guess I don't do banlists in the same way. I just ban the albums I know, rather than artists outright. So if I stopped following an artist for whatever reason, their more recent material would be available.

Updated to the best of my ability however I'm bound to miss a lot of bands. Just send it and if I know it I'll let you know.

Ulrik Lyngs

:rollin

Yeah no Rich, I probably just forgot to add those bands. :lol If I sent you something in a roulette, it's most likely banned.

Quote from: ariich on May 01, 2024, 11:33:20 AM
Will our themes need to be one-word names like yours are?

For Round 2, yes. That won't always be the case though.

I think I added everyone! Gonna reply to PMs and then I'm off to work.
Quote from: Train of Naught on May 28, 2020, 10:57:25 PMThis first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

Shadow Ninja 2.0

Hey, this roulette appears to have roughly the number of rules I tend to like, so I'll join if you still need people. I'll go ahead and send you something and then you can decide whether to let me in or not. :lol

Lonk

I'll send when I get home and can provide a file (about 10 hours)

No hurry. Songs are trickling in by now but as I said I plan on starting this next week in earnest. Although if a lot of people are in I might start listening on Saturday too.

Just don't be like Puppies as in don't forget to provide a link for the file in your PM :lol

I notice that Chorney Kofe isn't banned.   :corn

I decided not to put Russian rock/metal bands (Aria, Chorniy Kofe, Chorniy Obelisk, Epidemia etc) I grew up with as they're probably not well-known enough outside Russia so they won't be sent to me. I can send you some of the songs though, seems only fair after you just sent me more Ulrik Lyngs. :lol

I'd say they're probably one of the biggest metal acts here. They've got some solid stuff too, if they were singing in English they'd be definitely known on DTF among the metal crowd. Probably wouldn't have been this big over here though. :)
