Anyone have any music recommendations? This phone holds way more than my MP3 player does. If you have any music from home (Earth) as well, you can send them to me as well. No real preference, I’ll try anything once.

◙▒◙♫♩♬ Thanks.

I have this song from back home. It's a bit of a calmer song, actually.

[afoolshope]

I like it, it’s very pretty. It’s been awhile since I had something like that on my playlist, to be honest.

[dereban]

I like listening to calmer songs like that when I'm working on stuff since it's less distracting. Especially while I'm at work.

[afoolshope]

Makes sense. I usually have rock songs. But it’s just the playlist I had at the time, I had more on my laptop to switch things out. Hadn’t had the chance to do that before arriving here so here we are.

[dereban]

Rock songs, huh?

Do you have any songs that you particularly like?

[afoolshope]

Yeah. But it’s not limited to that.

This one tends to go on repeat for me.

[dereban]

Oh, that song is actually pretty good. It's not a bad one to have on loop, too.

[afoolshope]

yeah, it’s pretty easy to forget it’s on loop sometimes. What kind of music do you like?

An mp3 player? People still use those?

My recommendation is this song by the way.

[afoolshope]

I didn’t exactly have funds to get something better, it’s not bad, though.

Oh, is this an idol group? It’s catchy.

[good_ideas]

That's fair, I guess.

And yeah, it's an old idol group. They've broken up at this point but this song is pretty popular where I'm from.

[Because it's their anime opening song.]

I hope you like upbeat songs. This one is my favorite, I sing it all the time!

I was given a musical trinket over the holidays. It plays a magical tune if you wind its key just so! While it may not be a song I know from home, I hope you will enjoy it nonetheless.

[ Attached is a recording of the song playing through once. The room’s acoustics are terrible, and every so often, it sounds like she’s moving the device around to better capture the sound, but the thought’s what counts! ]

These things can hold music?

Even if you say that it's hard to narrow down

Um... I have what's on my phone and a birdbox
But I don't know what songs you know

I could send you my band's music
Or something from other indie bands

[afoolshope]

I like it, thank you. Idol groups do tend to come and go, I've noticed.

[afoolshope]

I enjoy a good bop. You can't really go wrong with them.

I can see why you sing to it. It's nice.

[afoolshope]

[ It's certainly an admirable effort. But, it makes him smile a little. ]

A music box, from what it sounds like. They're mechanical, not magical. It's in the way it's been put together, using gears and mechanics to make the sounds.

It's pretty, thank you.

[afoolshope]

Yeah, a lot of music, actually.

[afoolshope]

I know, but I don't really want people to send me their entire library either. That would be too much!

What's a birdbox?

You have a band? I wouldn't mind listening then, if you're sure you're okay with sending the songs to me.

[restringing]

That's why I asked

It's a music box that looks like a birdcage
Kind of
And it plays any music you ask for

I'm a member, but the band isn't just mine
It's all of ours
Could you tell me what you think?

The local pop music here is nice and catchy.
Here's a song by one of the more popular female artists here.
I have no idea what music from Earth is like. I'm from a place called Remnant. I'm only able to hear songs from home through the Birdbox, though.

[princeadjacent]

Huh. Interesting.

[ He nearly asks how you take the music back out again, but decides against it. He doesn't want to look like a grandpa, so he'll just figure the "making the music play" part out later. ]

Followup question: How loud can someone make this music? Because I'm trying to plan a date, but the music part's been a little tricky. I mean, it's not like I can hire some guy with a fiddle.

[ One, that requires finding a guy who can play the fiddle. Two, he's broke. ]

[zunge]

Attached is an album by one of the better electronic groups out there.

[Why yes, it's a zip file of some Kraftwerk that he happened to have on his Coil.]

[clodpole]

I see. Is your MP3 player similar in that regard, then? But with many songs as opposed to just the one?

[ Is that what that dinky little caricature at the end of his post is…? ]
