Easy for me, Nick Southall and Chris V.

― Jim Reckling (Jim Reckling), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:05 (twenty-one years ago)

We did this recently, right? Anywaysle: Matos, Donut Bitch, Blount.

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:20 (twenty-one years ago)

if someone says me, then him / her.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:21 (twenty-one years ago)

G to the Motherfucking GYGAX.

― ddb, Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:24 (twenty-one years ago)

To quote Depeche:

So entwined now that we can't shake free
I am you and you are me

Sung by Dan to myself and me back to him, as needed.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Well thank you. That caused voluminous hilarity in my home in the dead of night here.

― t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:34 (twenty-one years ago)

"And somewhere in the Baltics, a man laughs. COINCEDENCE?"

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:35 (twenty-one years ago)

NON.

― t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:36 (twenty-one years ago)

I have yet to find my ILX equal. Someone hold me.. now.

― maypang (maypang), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:37 (twenty-one years ago)

but maypang, we have a list to finish!

― scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Haha. Actually you were one person that did come to mind.

― maypang (maypang), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:39 (twenty-one years ago)

i have a lot in common with lots of people here. that's why i'm still here.

― scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Spencer, Nick S., Ned, Matt C., Mr. Blount, and esoj. More or less in that order.

― Francis Watlington (Francis Watlington), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:40 (twenty-one years ago)

If Ned would ditch the Smashing Pumpkins, then him.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:42 (twenty-one years ago)

i hear you, ailsa.

― scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Ned and Stupid, I think

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:58 (twenty-one years ago)

It used to be Josh, *sigh*.

― Jordan (Jordan), Saturday, 28 February 2004 02:59 (twenty-one years ago)

I think Ned. Lots of overlap with Kate, though.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:00 (twenty-one years ago)

um tim finney, maybe?

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Tom Ewing, Tim Finney, Jess Harvell, Andy Kellman

but I probably overlap with most people on here
especially ones whose tastes I'm biting
(Gareth, Prima Fassy, Stelfox, Amateurist, Rockist Scientist, etc)
and people I've hung out with (Matos, Geeta, Battaglia, JodyBethRosen, Daddino, Chuck & all the NYers)

― Paul (scifisoul), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Strongo we are like Matt Damon and Greg Kinear.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:04 (twenty-one years ago)

most apt yet horrifying metaphor ever

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Sadly I am Greg Kinnear I think!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually now I'm not sure.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:08 (twenty-one years ago)

well if we're talking talk soup hosts, then i am clearly john henson

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:09 (twenty-one years ago)

or the black woman

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Go grip something

― Andy K (Andy K), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:10 (twenty-one years ago)

We were talking Talk Soup hosts?

I think I look a bit like the guy who hosted it a couple of years back. Or still hosts it? My dad used to watch it on cable, but all I remember is that it had the second worst jokes of any infotainment show ever.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Not Hal Sparks

― Andy K (Andy K), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:13 (twenty-one years ago)

Talk Soup: pretty good show, but the fact that it exists kind of makes me loose faith in humanity. ILM similar? Hope not. Probably most similar taste-wise to jl (milton) and Nom de Plume, but also somtimes to Geir (even though I could give a fuck about Genesis), which distresses me.

― dleone (dleone), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:14 (twenty-one years ago)

wait, didnt greg kinnear host talk soup? did i hallucinate that?

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:14 (twenty-one years ago)

he did, he did. i believe he was the first.

― dean! (deangulberry), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually judging from the 2000-present albums thread it would have to be strongo, which makes me...? Jeff Daniels?

― Andy K (Andy K), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:17 (twenty-one years ago)

(Actually it might make me the Tracks person.)

― Andy K (Andy K), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:19 (twenty-one years ago)

also, from what little attention i pay, electric sound of jim (surface noise) seems to have the same taste as me

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Andy, you used to edit Spin? That is so kewl!

― David R. (popshots75`), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:22 (twenty-one years ago)

for me a weird hybrid of Matos, Blount, Seward, JBR, teeny, Francis W., and our poor dear prince in exile H in Addis.

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:23 (twenty-one years ago)

or the black woman

which would mean that you had a cameo appearance on "Slow Jamz" OWN3D

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, that's right, I totally forgot about Nitsuh! Please do come back, sir! And our salsa king Rockist. :)

― Francis Watlington (Francis Watlington), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:28 (twenty-one years ago)

i am totally gygax! + ianjonwilliamsjohnson + whoever is gayest for brian wilson

― dean! (deangulberry), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Patrin, Strongo, Finney, Ben Williams though he doesn't post all that much, Andy K ditto, Felicity ditto, cinniblount

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:31 (twenty-one years ago)

ack! not Andy K ditto, Andy B ditto

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:32 (twenty-one years ago)

haha I TOTALLY forgot Tracer_Hand!

he belongs in my most alikes

― Paul (scifisoul), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:33 (twenty-one years ago)

yes! Tracer! him too. and probably a dozen other people I'm forgetting.

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:42 (twenty-one years ago)

ESOJ, Dom, Ed O, Alex in t'North and The Lex, I'd reckon.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:44 (twenty-one years ago)

DJ Martian....Eisbar.....and a few others, I reckon.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:48 (twenty-one years ago)

If Ned wasn't so over the moon about the Smashing Pumpkins, he'd make the list as well.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:48 (twenty-one years ago)

DEAN!//JONWILLIAMS//GYGAX//ROGER ADULTERY//SCOTT SEWARD//NED RAGGGGGGGTETTTT

― Ian Johnson (orion), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:50 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, and quite possibly Kilian too.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Saturday, 28 February 2004 03:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Gaz, jess, ambrose, toby, tim finney, s1ocki...

that shit is deep.

that's probably before the lex discovered dance music and learned that guitars were for smelly boys and that late-period albums by ridiculous caterwauling nutjobs were good, not bad like you thought.

xpost

― banriquit, Sunday, 13 April 2008 13:47 (seventeen years ago)

Pinefox is the obvious answer here.

― Geir Hongro, Sunday, 13 April 2008 19:57 (seventeen years ago)

And Henrik from Acclaimed Music. He sometimes posts here, and still scores highly on my RYM similarities engine.

― Geir Hongro, Sunday, 13 April 2008 19:57 (seventeen years ago)

heh i just noticed mike h is one of my closest last.fm neighbours. so... him.

― Roz, Monday, 14 April 2008 14:52 (seventeen years ago)

hardly anyone anymore. tim f (out of sheer omnivorous capacity) and spencer probably the closest.

― blueski, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:07 (seventeen years ago)

Kevin Joe Bozoelka

― Dom Passantino, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:12 (seventeen years ago)

FCC. I swear, I'll read a thread and think of a comment, and he's already made the same post before me.

― Pleasant Plains, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:16 (seventeen years ago)

1982?

― Matt DC, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:19 (seventeen years ago)

was the lex even BORN in 1982?

― ian, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:22 (seventeen years ago)

only just

― blueski, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:24 (seventeen years ago)

Who is/was Edward O?

My answer would be one or more of the noize dudes or Colonel Poo or someone I guess

― DJ Mencap, Monday, 14 April 2008 15:30 (seventeen years ago)

stirmonster, Milton, ian, rizzx. Probably a few others.

― sleeve, Monday, 14 April 2008 16:02 (seventeen years ago)

Ned and Shakey Mo probably.
Oh yeah rizzx too. probably a few others actually.

― Herman G. Neuname, Monday, 14 April 2008 16:12 (seventeen years ago)

Daniel.esq,Jordan S, and electricsound maybe

― Zeno, Monday, 14 April 2008 16:42 (seventeen years ago)

maybe not exactly simmilar but the ilx0rs whose records I'd most likely enjoy perusing off the top of my head: Edd Hurt, Shakey, Seward (obv)

― will, Monday, 14 April 2008 16:59 (seventeen years ago)

roxy
ian
jaxon
milton

― omar little, Monday, 14 April 2008 17:28 (seventeen years ago)

some sort of weird combo of jaxon, ethan, finney and andy kellman

― deej, Monday, 14 April 2008 17:28 (seventeen years ago)

Jaxon and S1ocki generally.

― forksclovetofu, Monday, 14 April 2008 17:29 (seventeen years ago)

some combo of preview of the matrix 12, zeno and max

― J0rdan S., Monday, 14 April 2008 17:32 (seventeen years ago)

also scott sweard sometiems

― Zeno, Monday, 14 April 2008 17:35 (seventeen years ago)

Scott Seward for me too. I've often thought about writing him some fan mail 'cause his mixes like 'sweet smoke for hotheads,' etc. really helped me through some tough times. I went to a record fair in Chicago yesterday and I had a brief thought that he woulda loved hunting for good, cheap selections with me.

― BlackIronPrison, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:16 (seventeen years ago)

add a Fritz Wollner

― will, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:45 (seventeen years ago)

mix of finney, ronan, s1ocki, max, gr80

― jergïns, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:51 (seventeen years ago)

You used to be one of my neighbours on last.fm, Jergins.

― jim, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:53 (seventeen years ago)

iirc, it was someone off here and the name started with a j

― jim, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:54 (seventeen years ago)

Kenan is in my neighbours now.

― jim, Monday, 14 April 2008 18:57 (seventeen years ago)

shakey mo? hoos maybe? i dunno

― M@tt He1ges0n, Monday, 14 April 2008 19:00 (seventeen years ago)

whoa surprised that someone mentions me!

for me probably ian, hermann, julio desouza

― rizzx, Monday, 14 April 2008 19:25 (seventeen years ago)

Ned is my role model/idol

― stephen, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 03:01 (seventeen years ago)

rizzx was a neighbour for a fair while.

― wilter, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 03:05 (seventeen years ago)

Bimble. Any friend of The Suburbs and Steve Harley is a friend of mine. I've been loving my old cassette of Let's Active's "Big Plans For Everybody" in my car lately, was going to post about it, did a search and he's there too.

― Dan Peterson, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 14:19 (seventeen years ago)

I don't think my tastes line up exactly with anyone here, but I think I've gotten pretty good at recognizing what things that folks like that I don't. Like, I generally am willing to give anything Scott Seward recommends a try, but he likes stuff further out on the biker boogie axis of hard rock than I do. Similarly, Chuck Eddy likes a bunch of '90s stuff that I just don't understand the affection for, and hates a lot of '90s stuff I like. Dan Perry's almost always dead-on when it comes to the punkier side of rock or dance, but I don't always agree with him when it comes to radio pop. The Lex and I differ when it comes to melismatics and weepy arrangements, but aside from that, he overlaps pretty well.

― I eat cannibals, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 18:24 (seventeen years ago)

The only ILXor that's in my Last.fm neighbors is markp.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 18:30 (seventeen years ago)

i think i have the exact opposite taste from chicago kevin

― jaxon, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 18:37 (seventeen years ago)

Thanks Dan Peterson! I actually tried to email you last week but I think the ILX email function is not working. Please get in touch at newdawnfades61@y_a_h_o_oDOTcom

Also, if I remember correctly, you're the one who helped me identify that song by Brick called Dazz. I can't tell you how much I appreciated that!

― Bimble, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 19:03 (seventeen years ago)

jergs, grady, tim f, deej, hoos, jaxon, really anyone who posts on two out of three on balearic/beardo/ringtone

― max, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 19:05 (seventeen years ago)

there are a few who share some of my all-consuming passions -- mark e, bimble, dan, spencer -- but i don't think there's anyone i'm completely in harmony with.

― grimly fiendish, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 19:22 (seventeen years ago)

yeah max & deej & j0rdan, though as far as i know none of those guys listen to metal?

i think scott listens to some rap, right?

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 19:25 (seventeen years ago)

I already mentioned Ned a few posts ago. To expand - I also have a good amount of overlap with Spencer, Dan, Jaymc, Andy K, then of course Bimble and Curtis on '80s stuff, and BIG HOOS on hip-hop, and Tim F on his music theory (though not always his music tastes), Scott S here and there, and I look up to Matos and Strongo a lot too. So, some combination of all those guys.

― stephen, Tuesday, 15 April 2008 19:36 (seventeen years ago)

I'm my own man.

― The Reverend, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 00:38 (seventeen years ago)

Your own lover man

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 00:40 (seventeen years ago)

lol bimble and i have im'd for long periods of time about post-punk

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 00:43 (seventeen years ago)

me & oilyrags dig a lot of the same jazz

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 00:47 (seventeen years ago)

zunga zung zung

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 00:52 (seventeen years ago)

i lost scott's sweet smoke mixes. where they at?

― caek, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 01:12 (seventeen years ago)

I also have a good amount of overlap with Spencer, Dan, Jaymc, Andy K

Since I don't know you very well, I'm curious about what impression I've given you about what I'm into. (I do think that Spencer and I have some similar tastes, so I'm not saying you're wrong.)

― jaymc, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 03:10 (seventeen years ago)

pipecock

― moonship journey to baja, Wednesday, 16 April 2008 03:35 (seventeen years ago)

Fer Ark, by the looks of it.

― Colonel Poo, Thursday, 17 April 2008 09:22 (seventeen years ago)

Alright Colonel - I'm honoured.You poor soul!

Thought the same about you, even back when I posted under a different , similarly bad name - Jessie The Drunk Dutch Mountain Dog.
Lost at sea in old pc.

Shit, that rhymes.

Most definitely not a multi poster btw. Make a mess enough with just one idiot
