Generally the music I listen to usually depends on the mood I'm in, I really like electronic music and also analog music. The list is quite long.

So I'll narrow it down to what I'm listening now.

A few days ago I remembered a band that I hadn't looked for years to see if they had released a new album and I found that they have put all their discography “free” on their official website, you only have to pay a donation of 0.95€.

So now I'm basically listening to them, with a smile on my face.

The band is Pretty Ligths, I leave a track here for those who don't know them.

Greetings to all!

Yesterday, I listened to a musician named Sufjan Stevens. Here's a playlist of his music I created if you don't know who he is.

I did not know this singer. Thank you. "The only thing" It is a beautiful and sorrowful song, a familiar struggle for me and for many who walk this strange life.

A strong embrace.

Last night I could almost forget my horrible reaction to morphine by listening to Schubert's:

Piano Sonata in A Minor D845

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyTb0ThLCyo&ab_channel=Schwammerl

I hadn't been using my CD player for years (just relying on YouTube) and had forgotten just how how beautiful Schubert's melodies are.
H. L. Mencken described them as: "the most ravishing ever heard in this world".

Any other fans on Librivox?

Thank you for the link.

I turn to Chopin too much, so to speak, when I want to hear classical piano. I will listen to more of Schubert!

Sorry to hear about your allergic reaction.

I've been listening to Procol Harum. Happy memories!

I've discovered a local band last year, called BATI-HOLIC. They are a "Taiko Drum Rock Band" with three people playing traditional Japanese drums, and two sing and play shamisen and gottan, respectively, equally traditional three-stringed guitars.

Youtube channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfeTJGLzoESmUutyDYqY1dQ

They are super energetic (and energizing), and while I like their CDs, they are very much a live band. I try to catch all their concerts in Kyoto, but they play regularly in Osaka and Nara as well.
Since the venues they play are tiny, the guys are super approachable. They already knew me after my third concert or so.

I have been listening to some eclectic (my sister says insane) music lately. For example, concertos and other pieces written for or featuringr the basoon, ex: Devienne: Bassoon conc. in B flat major mov. 1 and CONCERTO FOR BASSOON IN F MAJOR First Movt: (First Part). These and others, digitized from old 78s, are in the Internet Achive.

I mostly listen to soundtracks. I listen to different ones depending on my moods: When I am feeling wonderfully happy and silly, I listen to "Mr. Beans holiday" soundtrack, or "Leap Year" soundtrack. When I am feeling tired, I will listen to "Pride and Prejudice" soundtrack. When I am feeling sad, I will listen to "Pearl Harbour" soundtrack. When I am feeling adventurous or in need of being inspired, I will listen to "Beyond the Mask" soundtrack. If I am utterly tired of listening to soundtracks, I will listen to Enya. (Mostly her older songs)

A friend of mine introduced me to this piece of music a few weeks ago, and I've been keeping it high in the rotation ever since! I've listened to it maybe a score of times now, at least. It's Edward Elgar's "The Light of Life," a musical presentation of the gospel story about the blind man who received his sight when Jesus put mud on his eyes and told him to wash. It's really wonderful, and just gets better each time I listen!
