Classical-ish music?


Question Posted Saturday January 2 2010, 10:31 am

Lately I've become slightly addicted to uh.. classical-ish music, I guess? I don't really know how to classify it; I just like various piano / string songs, such as Yiruma's "River Flows in You", Apocalyptica's "Farewell", etc.

Anyways, I don't know of any similar artists and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions.

Check out Rasputina. Three cellos, one drummer, no waiting. Weird slowcore freakout music. Also check out the Kronos Quartet. more standard classical stuff, but lots of in-jokes. And of course, there is the inimitable PDQ Bach.

I love Rodrigo y Gabriela, it's spanish guitar music. There's also the Vitamin String Quartet (among others) that does classical covers of popular songs.

I don't know any off the top of my head, but...

Pandora.com is an online radio server that builds your channels based on information you give it. If you type in Apocalyptica in the channel builder and Yiruma, it will search the database for music with similar qualities and give you a good selection of other artists that you might like.

It works like a charm. I love Pandora. Hope that helped.
