GET OUT OF HERE, STALKER!


The reason I say this is because it strikes me as the kind of music that someone who likes Tarkovsky films would like.  Stalker was my favorite, and there was a game that had a hilarious bug involving that quote based on the movie. 

But seriously, a lot of those bands make music that leaves me thinking about just sitting somewhere devoid of people and observing nature carry on around me.  Tarkovsky films do this to me also. 

Therefore, you are a fan of Tarkovsky films, as well as many other directors who use long takes and lots of nature-centric imagery.  You might even be a film student (I recall reading you saying this somewhere, so that's kind of cheating), but as is evident from the dreamlike quality of the music you listen to, your head is in the clouds a lot and you strive to find or create imagery that mimics the effect that music has on you.

I am not very good at this.

Cernunnos:
Close, yet so far. I am not a film student, however I am an art student. Also, I have never seen any Tarkovsky films. But you'd be right to say that I would probably like them a lot. I do have a tendency to build my Art directly out of the aesthetic motifs processes and materials (often natural) that surround me without overlaying my own "style", if i have one. So, yes.

Man, I kinda want to ask peeps to do me (hurr hurr), but I don't really feel like my Last.FM top anythings are terribly representative. Although it does amuse me that my top eleven songs overall are 10 Joy Division songs and "Naki Kyoku" ("Naki Kyoku" is the fucking tops).

OK, so I'm black, but I'm self conscious about it, because I like Broken Social Scene. What do I listen to?
