slash body of music.
I recently dumped a 32gb mem card into my Galaxy S and after putting in all the stuff I'm sure I'd listen to at the moment, I have some space leftover.
What are essential songs everyone should carry around with them? Essential albums?
I'd like to cover as many genres and time periods as possible.
Also, my friend and I are putting together an acoustic cover band and are putting together a setlist. Any song suggestions you think people (girls) would like to be played? |

Got a playlist of your stuff? I only have 4GB or so of music and I feel like I am missing a ton of stuff and like you wonder what that is. |

About 80% of your list is in my playlist...I am pretty sure on a few of your bands you probably have more songs in your playlist than you have on that site.
I am GLAD that someone else recognizes the genius that is Boston. |

it depends, what kind of music are you into?
i was in a cover band last year. my drummer wanted to cater to girls. so we had a few songs like
kiss me - six pence none the richer
since you've been gone-kelly clarkson
don't speak- no doubt
we also did a wonder girls song.
you guys need another guitarist??  btw, there's a really good practice studio with all the gear and amps you need in konkuk. |

I like virtually all genres ranging from death metal to alt rock to pop to underground hip-hop to Indonesian gamelan to Mongolian throat singing.
What's kind of cool about having such limited space (I've always had giant capacity HDD-based MP3 players in the past) is that you are forced to only put in stuff you're sure you're going to listen to.
So here's some of the artists (excluding a lot of big acts) I'm currently diggin and spinnin (or accessing from my SD card  ):
Anamanaguchi, The Arcade Fire, Atmosphere, The Avett Bros, Bloody Beetroots, Blue Scholars, Bon Iver, Boys Noize, Brad Mehldau, Broken Social Scene, Cary Bros, Cazals, Chromeo, Cut Copy, Dan Merriweather, Darwin Deez, Empire of the Sun, Fanfarlo, Friendly Fires, Hot Chip, Justice, Lazer Sword, Matt & Kim, Neon Indian, Pacific!, Primus, Ratatat, Robert Glasper, Skrillex, Tokyo Police Club, and TV on the Radio. |
