Happy Face 29 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) Reet, I'm so impressed with this place, I thought it needed a thread of its own. www.Pandora.com Started a station with Satriani, Vai & Led Zep and got some excellent tracks from Foreigner, Trans Am and Deep Purple whom I would normally dismiss altogether. Which artists should I add to each of my stations? I want classic artists and underappreciated genius' for each genre. Stations are... Classic Rock Heavy Rock Rap & Hip-Hop Electronic Alternative Blues/Country/Bluegrass/Folk Pop World Suggestions for other stations appreciated too.

Sima 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 What do you mean by "Alternative" anyway? Such lazy pigeon-holing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 What do you mean by "Alternative" anyway? Such lazy pigeon-holing. 179306[/snapback] Anyone too soft to be rock, but not soft enough to be blues/country/folk. I can't stand having 60 odd different genre for my music.

The Mighty Hog 331 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Stick "Mew" in. Worth a try anyway. Quality band, if you give them a few listens anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come ON, people! 179293[/snapback] That's the beauty of Pandora tbh. Put in a well known band and it'll suggest less well known alternatives. I'm just looking for peoples opinions on what is the cream of each both popularly, critically and underground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 331 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Just had a look at Pandora and it asked me to register after one song. Then I needed an US zip code to become a member. Bit shit that you can't listen if you aren't from the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
