  1. Can we talk about how good's Spoon new album is ?

     

     

     

    Also festival time this week-end ! I'm seeing QOTSA, Arctic Monkeys, Portishead (For the first time, looking forward to that), St. Vincent, Blondie, Warpaint, Cloud Nothings... Really looking forward to it despite the horrible price of food and drinks.


  2. Bonsoir ColinZeal, you had me at "huge music nerd" :P, are you into game music as well (this because you mention the SNES which has some of my favorite nostalgic game music)?, I'm quite eclectic with regards to my music tastes, maybe we can digress and chat about music recommendations some times, stop by the Dancing Thumb in Idle Banter (to do said digression and recommendations), Welcome to the forums!

    Weirldy, I'm not into game music (and OSTs in general). I think I'm not a fan of "purpose" written music. Sure I appreciate Music in games when I play them (except when it's generic wubwub or orchestra non-sense) but I rarely listen to these songs by themselves, except when they're music genres I really love, like Rez or Hotline Miami. I do have some cult classic theme songs that I love like the Kid Icarus theme, but they're exceptions. But I also realy enjoy Chiptune so I guess it's a bit like retrogaming themes.

    I saw the Dancing Thumbs thread, I'll happily go post some songs there !

    Thanks for the welcome !


  3. Hi there, or may I say "Bonjour"

    I'm a 22 years old person, living in the "City of Lights" (Well, actually, the suburbs) that discovered Idle Thumbs a few weeks ago, when I decided to get into recordings of people speaking about Video Games on the Internet. I started gaming at 5, with my older sister's SNES and continued playing. Right now, I'm really into games with fresh and new ideas and deep narrative experiences. That's one of the reason I love Idle Thumbs.

    I'm also a huge music nerd. I'm really into britpop, 90's Indie and Shoegazing.

    So there I am, on this forum, hoping to find a new place to talk about games and other stuff in my maybe approximative English !
