Please tell me someone here has heard of Ronald Jenkees.

This guy is pretty much amazing. Could someone recommend some music similar to this? It reminds me of Herbie Hancock's jazz fusion mixed with the soundtrack for Donkey Kong Country 2. It's very wistful, nostalgic, energetic, etc etc

...so apparently you're tasteless, cool.

Yes. Yes I am tasteless.

you do realize that is completely tacky. i recomend you start checking out bands mentioned by some of the other folks on this board, instead of trying to constantly get us interested in the shit you listen to. almost everything youve listed that other people here actually like, most of us have probally already been listening to to for at LEAST five years.

im not trying to be an asshole...but seriously man, yr not going to get too many people here interested in brand new or incubus. it isnt because everyone here is closed minded in music, either...if ya pay realllllly close attention, there are several sorts of people here w/ several different sorts of taste....metal, punk, classic rock, noise, jazz, blues, all subgenres of the aforementioned.

you just need to get over that shit.

maybe yr the "incubus" guy of the board...AND THATS COOL! just, dont immediately consider other people have bad tastes when they dont like the stuff you recomend.

Heartbreaker and Homewrecker.

To be honest I didn't read any of that besides your first sentence so I'll just answer thatttt.

It's because he was needlessly rude about it. Posting some ugly picture and "BOOOOO" is kind of.. childish and stupid. He could have just said he didn't like it.

swa(y) was right when he talked about people on here having heard the majority of the shit you speak of long ago. Its not a personal attack, its called learning. We (all older persons that acquired knowledge about music) all had to start somewhere.

So, when I saw your randy jentry video I thought ''Ok, there are tons of musicians that have done this same thing better and thirty years ago, boo this man''

Sorry if your feelings were hurt, its the interent, shit happens.

Oh and PS: when you have a artist or band you want to expose people to, try not to sound as if its someone super important or relevant to this forum, it kinda comes across as condescending, and in the long run makes your perceived musical taste shit.
