My Music and some Bands

I'm so happy, after much deliberation I have put up my music on facebook for all to see and hear! Now just time for feedback! TBH I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IM DOING! lol everytime I try to make something I get stuck and cant be arsed to finish it. However I have had a lot of good response which makes me happy...and the comments are from other musicians! So people who know how hard it is to make a tune! I just wish my computer wasnt dying on its ass, music software uses a lot of processing power and so I cant do alot, I have resorted to just using Reason 3 now ( I tried 4 but its too much for my system!) However please have a listen and tell me what you think, search for GIO in facebook and add, I would love to hear what others are thinking about it :)

I have been trying to figure out what to listen to next...any suggestions? I have no idea, the last year of doing a music centered course (the irony is coming now) I have no clue what music is fresh and new or what styles people wnat or like. I feel I have hit a barrier of non-musical-ness. The shame is the last band that blew...yes BLEW ME AWAY....was...wait for it Hadouken! yes bliming, grimey, supposed Nu rave Hadouken! I cant remeber the music from the last year or two. So without fail I have been reading through as much musical press to get a flipping grip...but its all shit! Absolute garbage, I have not felt this down aboutnew music in a while, I dunno if there is too much or too little or if everyone is following the same musical path or if my ears and mind have grown old...next Ill be screaming "Turn that bloody noise down!" and grab my pipe and slippers. How has it come to this? Is it as soon as you turn 21/22 you suddenly dont like new things? Hell I like stability but I love new music and new experiences! Ok,ok, Cornwall is not the best place to be for a music scene, but with the net and online musical pages aglore you would think something would hit me as amazing. There is a lot that is ok, perhaps even really good, but not amazing. The Boxer Rebellion album Union is a prime example, good for people who like Radiohead,Interpol,Coldplay,U2 or the ilk The album is a grower, but its not amazing. Ill give them credit as there is no way I could create some of the amazing swafts of sound they do, but I feel its been done. Is it because I hear the influences of so many other bands that I cant appreicate new ones? Please some one tell me! Sned me answers on a postcard to Fickle Musical Man, it doesnt need an address because all postcards will be sent to me as I rock slowly in the corner trying to the new sound quietly going insane!!!!
