Over the past week or two, I've unsuccessfully visited iTunes several times; I can't find anything that I want to listen to. So I'm innocently doing this little meme, hoping y'all have some good current favorites. 'Cause I need something new.

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

1. Slowly by Infected Mushroom - No lyrics; Electronic - I'm not a techno fan, but Infected Mushroom is pretty addicting. This particular song reminds me of Sonic the Hedgehog and an old Sega Genesis game called Sub-Terrania.

2. Franks by Infected Mushroom - No lyrics; Electronic - I love the opening melody as it becomes later developed, but really, it's the bells & chimes that clenches it. Who uses bells & chimes in electronic music?

3. Oltremare by Ludovico Einaudi - No lyrics; Piano - I see a pattern here: I've always been a band nerd in love with instruments. I love this piece. This particular composer is amazing. Terri found him, and I highly recommend his music if you're into piano pieces.

4. Interlude by Attack! Attack! - No lyrics; Rock - It's a short little jam fest that leaves your fingers itching for an instrument of your own.

5. Advent: One-Winged Angel - ACC Long Version by Nobuo Uematsu - No lyrics; Soundtrack/Orchestra/Rock - *Cough* This piece is almost too amazing for words: Full Orchestra, Full Choir, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drum Set. Guh. Nobuo Uematsu is amazing.

6. Tidal (Instrumental Version) by Imogen Heap - No Lyrics; Alternative - I really like the song with the lyrics, but I love this instrumental version. It's something about the rhythm - that shifting "missed" beat. I'm still a sucker for syncopation.

7. Sunburn by Owl City - Lyrics; Electronic - This is a really cute song, and I love it because it's completely Terri/Andy. XD Seriously. Listen to it, and you'll understand that this song was written for them!
