Well, I was wondering what we could do to help get the music discussion bit going, so here's an idea and then you can all throw knives at me or whatever if someone has already said it.
So here goes:
Each week, each member who has agreed to participate in this recommends a song, so we all have a week to listen to the songs, comment about them and perhaps give them a score. It wouldn't require as much time as if it was albums that are being proposed. Anyway, the objective is to discover new music, help other members discover new music and it's fun too.
We could do this in certain boards but I don't know whether perhaps it would be better to just mix all the genres in one to get people listening to different things to what they are used to.
Bah, I don't know.

We could probably have the moderators of each board start "Songs of the Week" for each forum, and have five songs posted in there each week for reviewing.
*nod*
Could be good.

That's not a bad idea actually. Kinda like a book club, but without the need to go to the library, or read. =P It's an even better idea when you consider that the songs will (most probably) be on YouTube, so no need to buy/borrow/steal. =]

I like the idea. It's simple, and hopefully enough people will be up for it to make it actually work.

the only thing is people would have to be interested (or at least attempt to be) in the lesser popular generes (ie dance and rap).

You give me a reason why I should listen to the rap, and I'll listen to it. If I know what I'm looking for, perhaps I'll actually appreciate it. (and no, that's not me trying to be clever. That's me being sincere. =P)

O__O That's probably more artists than in my library as it stands. Shit man. I figured you were gonna say "listen to these 3 or 4 albums". =P

That's still the right idea, del. Though, to simply it, you could just post a few artists at a time, and if you get requests for more, then you can keep posting them. Then it won't seem like you're doing so much work for nothing.

Thats a great idea. I would like to see some new music and probably add them to my collection.
