Your Top 3 Fav Instruments (to listen to)

[ajaxfetish]

French horn
cello
voice

And myriad others.

Ajax

[Quietus]

Anything with great songwriting, rhythm, harmony, vocals, and melody.

Percussion (drum & bass)
Vocals
Horns, Strings, Keyboard, Piano etc. (except I don't like Harmonica and Blues guitar).

As an example, one of my contemporary favorites: Esperanza Spalding (performing "Overjoyed" by Stevie Wonder). I knew she's really special ever since I've heard (her old band) Noise For Pretend's rendition of Bjork's "It's Oh So Quiet".

[Axalon]

Only 3? That's not fair! I'll do it the other way around 3 instruments I dont like...

1. Saxophone (in general, there are exceptions of course as always).
2. Crappy synthesizer sounds (think '80's and your'e dead on target).
3. Accordion (in general, there are exceptions of course as always)
4. Bonus treat: Crappy drum-machines.... (There are good ones as well, you know).

Done... So what's next?!?

- Cheers
