What are you listening to?
What are you all listening to? What looks great in DMT?
I think I already mentioned Amon Tobin (mostly Supermodified and Out From Out Where)
(and Two Fingers- Stunt Rhythms and Six Rhythms)
I spent a lot of time, while testing this thing, listening to the Tool albums Lateralus and 10,000 Days.
I found Massive Attack (Mezzanine, in particular) was pretty great.
Other stuff I listened to while testing includes
Beck (mostly Modern Guilt, Colors, and Morning Phase)
Kendrick Lamar (Damn)
Radiohead (Lots of Moon Shaped Pool, but lots of other stuff too)
Faith No More (mostly Invictus)
a bunch of random Trap songs off of TrapNation (and a bunch of, unrelated, Atlanta-style Trap songs)
Justin Timberlake (The first song I ever tested with, like 5 years ago, was "My Love")

Now, what works for you?

I'll give it a shot with Venetian Snares

Update: I gave it a listen. Pretty trippy stuff. Looked really cool at some points. Only comment I'll make is that sometimes the effects intersected with my face in a way that blocked my view and that was a bit distracting. I look forward to trying more stuff and seeing how this develops.

I've also had an idea. I think I will hook up my guitar to my FX processor and try playing it while in the game.

nice!

so, one tip for you if the geometry getting all up in your face is annoying: in the options menu you can turn off Foreground. I also mapped that to one of the controller buttons so you can toggle the foreground shapes on and off without going into the menu. I _think_ I put that on the left controller button (the one above the trackpad)

By the way, if you folks have any feedback or suggestions on controller layout, I'd love to hear them.

Last thing, hitting "enter" or clicking down on the right trackpad will "reset" the visuals into a new randomized state. Do that if you want to change things up.

Hop you're having fun!

Let me know how that goes!
Also, if you use Microphone source you can play an acoustic guitar!

(got to give Massive Attack a try later though).

Massive Attack Mezzanine - *is* wonderful (try the remix version too) - went from there to Cocteau Twins..... bliss!

You all need to try it out with this song, immediately!

Just spent an hour testing some minor tweaks to a shader while listening to Run The Jewels for the first time!

Goldfrapp. Any of their work.

Just gave Goldfrapp a listen- and... yes!!!
Also, thanks for the kind review, and you knowledge of important historical figures :)

I got the app today. I've listened to Pink Floyd, most or all of the albums: Wish You Were Here, Dark Side of the Moon, and Animals.. I left a review. So amazing. I've pointed several friends to the app.
