Music has always played an important part in my life, so it makes sense to devote a section of my web site to it.
My musical tastes range far and wide, and since I've never been very good at actually describing what genres I like, I'll just provide a list of some of the featured artists and composers in my CD collection, and some that aren't yet (well, I was a poor student, after all, and there is always the student loan looming). Many of these artists I don't have a wide experience of, but in some cases I own all or most albums.
Also here is a list of albums I'm currently obsessed with.
The links on the artist names are to the Artist's "official" site, where one exists. Be warned, they are nearly all flash-heavy.
If you're feeling rich today, why not help me add to the collection? :)
I have a cheesy script that has information on all of the audio CDs I own (not including BBC Music Magazine or etree-type stuff), the output of which is here.Wired CD
