Who is your favorite music artist and why?

[suhhh]

Man I just recently watched a new documentary on Mac Miller's death and it still hits me hard like the day he passed. I've never really been affected by the death of an artist until Mac, it was almost like having a close friend pass away.

I grew up listening to him when we were both young, envisioning lifestyles of pretty women, money, drugs. Then he switched up, started coming clean with his drug usage, getting in tune with his emotions, creating music that told stories instead and revealed much about his personal life.

Strayed away from "pop" typical rap and instead started creating poetry in conjunction with many talented producers and artists.

As he grew with music I started to grow with him too, he taught me how it's ok to admit faults, admit when you're wrong, and that it's ok to be in touch with your feelings and that everybody struggles no matter who they are.

I still firmly believe to this day that his album "Swimming" is the most well thought out produced, engineered, and written piece of this time. One of the very few albums I can play start to finish without skips and listen to every single word.

Who's your favorite?

It’s hard to say there’s a lot of music out there. But one musician that sticks with me the most is mike oldfield with his album tubular bells . A portion of the album was used for the opening theme for the movie The exorcist. I was five years old when my older brother had bought the album back in 1973 it being a instrumental album made me appreciate the art even more every instrument was played by mike oldfield in the album except for drums. From what I understand the album took him about two years to finish it is a classic album and a musical masterpiece it’s a album and a musician that would and have stuck with me for a very long time

Frank Sinatra, Frankie Laine, and a zillion others who have made music such a wonderful thing in my life.

I even managed to buy some vinyl recorder at Aliexpress with a good discount thanks to this tool. Now I get double satisfaction from listening to my fav musician.

I guess it is Tiesto. Especially his early works. His architecture of sound is second to none!

I love Radiohead and Shade.I like music that relaxes me,

Igor Stravinsky. The sheer range of his work - from The Firebird to The Rite of Spring to Symphony of Psalms to The Soldier’s Tale… almost every one of his compositions impacted me at some level, and there are so so so few pieces of music that can entrance me the way Rite of Spring still does. Best front-row concert of my life. Hell, even the technically-shitty college-orchestra performance of Rite of Spring was a great experience.

I like Radiohead and Beck a lot. I enjoy music that's creative and stretches into a lot of different directions and genres.

Radiohead is the Beatles of my generation. Prince Rogers Nelson was a god among men.

One of many but topping my list is Elvis Presley. His charisma and voice are simply unparalleled. Recently, I even decided to learn to play one of his iconic songs on the ukulele. There's something about the sweet, melodic strums on this little instrument that adds a unique sound to Elvis's classics.

Big Aaron Lewis fan here! I love how his music can be both soulful, and hard-driving. I love it when he does acoustic versions of songs.
