    loads. sorta depends on your taste though. any genre preference? Personally it's mostly heavy stuff (Testament, Slayer, etc) for me, mixed with a bit of electronica stuff like Chemical Brothers and Soulwax.

    If you want to get into some good music, don't go totally mainstream. It's rare that something with a quirky and original tinge gets the backing of enough people to make it big.

    Try listening to some of the female jazz greats, like Anita O'Day, Carmen McRae, Betty Carter and Billie Holiday etc.
    Maybe if you want to listen to more modern things Michael Buble would be a good choice.
    If you don't like that then you could take a chance on bands such as the Ozric Tentacles for more psychedelic and heavy tunes.

    Of course "good music" is very personal and subjective. Good music to me may be horrific music to others.

    Posting a genre you like might be helpful....
    So I'll just drop random band/singer names I like and are good.

    Radiohead, Björk, Air, Daft Punk, The chemical brothers, Portishead; No Doubt, Blur, The white Stripes, Garbage, Muse; Depeche Mode....

    And oh well since the questions is if I know any good music, well, Classical music is good no matter what lol

    I like Keri Hilson, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Evanescence, Erin McCarley, Jazmine Sullivan, Leona Lewis, and Marie' Digby.

    It all depends on what type of music you like, like other people have posted before me. I find that I'm more likely to like individual songs of artists rather than albums, so I look around a lot.

    Classical stuff is always good - Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Bach, etc :slight_smile:

    But not Wagner. He was a Nazi. Oh, and his music isn't that good
