Orion Scorpio Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Looking through all my files, I'd say a good 75% is hip hop, which was a bit suprising to say the least. Everything else mostly contrives of Rock/Electronica/Punk/Ambience/Dance/Comedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakule Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 20 - 30% hiphop, 30% funk, 30% latin then many bits n pieces. hiphops been expensive for ages, cheaper to buy other stuff at the mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Maybe 80-90% of my collection is hip hop. That doesn't mean I don't have lots of other stuff, but I have a LOT of hip hop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeriveOne Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I'd say about 70% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deeswift Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Mine is about 3% hip hop. EDIT: Probably less, come to think of it. 2% maybe. I collect rock, jazz, fusion, prog, etc. Usually it's instrumental stuff, as there's only about 3 singers I can stomach. Corey Glover from Living Colour, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye.

DJDelay Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 My vinyl collection is mostly hiphop, but i'm not really a massive record collector I got loads of cd's, records and mp3's of dnb, breakbeat, breaks, soul, funk, dubstep and a whole load of DJ mixes too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 about 5%- i only buy hiphop on vinyl an very rarely do so, i did a lot in my first year djing so i had songs that people my age liked, then stopped when i realised that was pointless. The bulk of my collection is rock, and i have some triphop( bout 2%) and turntablism (5%). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Scorpio Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 I don't have much rap, not because "I hate commercial music" or any of that nonsense though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 same reason as you kali, i just hate the fact that there is no meaning behind it, and the lyrics are awful in most cases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't sseem tobuy as muchhj hip hop now.  same here. when i buy records these days i do mainly look for ambient/electronica, jazz, skratch related stuff or just old records for sampling. i'd say about 60% of my records are hip hop. the rest is old records to sample from for the major part...

Jon Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Why does it all have to have meaning?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Â Â dunno thats just the way i ma i guess, but i have exceptions when the music behind it is amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deeswift Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 It doesn't have to have meaning, but it's better if it does. Generally people who write music with no meaning make soulless music. Music is a form of expression. Express yourself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Scorpio Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 True that! Listening to music with no heart requires no thinking, which isn't always a bad thing. Best example, if you're in a club, are you more interested in hearing in depth music? Or music to get down and funky too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
