Thumbs up Share music samples

Most band/composer sites have samples on them nowadays. Even those that don't, usually have a Myspace Music account lying around. So instead of talking about music or posting lyrics nobody really reads (come on, be honest), lets post some actual music instead.

Be warned:
- No direct linking to mp3's, wma's and the likes. We will respect the composers and their bandwidth bills.
- Also post separate links to their official websites in case of a Myspace account or similar sites. Especially if these sites are completely separate e-shops for instance that hold sample mp3's.

If you can post some of your own music, then that would be SUPER. I would, but I record everything by midi device (for writing/composing purposes). I can share that stuff, but it will almost certainly sound differently on other computers.

Bell Orchestre
Genre: Orchestral Post Rock
www.myspace.com/bellorchestre

I had to order some CD's after hearing their samples. That doesn't happen too often to me by the way, I'm usually even more critical about music than games. The first time I heard them I mistakenly thought they were a freeform or bebop style band.. until they gradually grew out of the intro and actually *started* playing. If anyone here can point me to similar music, I'm keen to listen to more.

Heh Nightwish, now that brings back some memories. Two year's ago my parent's kitchen burned down. I was visiting and brought a lot of laundry with me and all of it got burned or ruined by the smoke. I ended up borrowing clothes for the weekend, and I walked around in a (girly) Nightwish sweater for about three days.

A while back I also heard some pretty good Industrial Synthpop remixes of Nightwish, I think by either Icon Of Coil or VNV Nation. I can't remember the titles. It got me back into listening some of the original tracks again, all good stuff.
