Tally Hall

~~Femtanyl~~ C418, actually. Listening to Femtanyl on a deserted island would drive me insane, lol.

Jack Stauber

Will Wood

Can't believe so many people said Pink Floyd! I'm not even sure who I'd pick for #2. Floyd's really old stuff is like a different band.

Dayseeker

Killswitch Engage

Flaw

Fair to Midland

Jean-Michel Jarre

Mike Oldfield

Alan Parsons

Pink Floyd

Bach

They Might Be Giants

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

And idk, maybe Prince?

The Beatles Pink Floyd Radiohead David Bowie

All artists that I've liked for a long time that I'm unlikely to get sick of. Also with quite large discographies.

Where is the music coming from?
Do i get updated releases?
From where? The internet?
Can i use that connection for other things?
Where is the power for the playback system coming from?
Can i use that power for other things?

I can only think of 2 that would count that I wouldn't be cheating: They Might Be Giants and Weird Al. If it's their full discography and any other releases they've done, that's already way too much music for me to ever listen to in my lifetime with my listening habits.

I would love to cheat with something like Hatsune Miku, but that wouldn't be fair considering it's tons of people using software to create songs with that specific voice rather than a single singer/band performing.

I cannot think of anyone else I listen to with nearly as expensive of a list of music as TMBG or Weird Al, so I'd probably end up going to the next best thing: Jam Hsiao. He's got a lot of music, so I'd have a lot to choose from. Choice would be the spice of life for me.

Absolutely no clue for the 4th, so I'd probably pick a group that I like at least a couple of their songs and think they have a large amount of music: Meat Puppets.

In the end, due to their probably high song count, these would probably be my top picks right now.

Man, OP is having the longest stroke ever. It's not only the title, every reply they've made is so broken. I don't understand how someone would be so unable to use basic spelling and grammar.

Grouplove, Die Ärzte, They Might Be Giants, Babymetal.

Do we get access to their entire back catalogues?

Assuming so:

• R.E.M.
• Underworld
• The Beatles
• Billie Holiday

But ask me tomorrow and I'd probably have at least 3 different answers! 😁

• Hans Zimmer
• Johann Sebastian Bach
• Pyotr Tchaikovsky
• John Williams

Bach - Seems obvious

Gojira - They don't have a bad song, only more and less great.

Lorn - The electronic sound of a plea for help

And this one band I've followed for years that keeps making all kinds of experimental stuff: Various Artists

Queen Pink Floyd Dire Straits Sting/Police

MF DOOM, Buckethead, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Deftones

Mmm.

Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai, El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico and Donna Summer.

What a difficult task! 😅

John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

ABBA, C418, Green Day, Queen

Gonna cheat and say Alan Menken since he's responsible for many of the animated songs I grew up with. Then I'd probably go with Ne-Yo, Odesza, and then Yiruma. All have different vibes so that should be enough for every occasion.

I think artists with variety in their sound would be good. So I'd go: Lady Gaga David Bowie Blur Queen.

However, I'd consider the Beatles, Madonna, radiohead and muse. It's funny. These aren't all necessarily artists I would put on to listen to day to day.

Coldplay, Nickelback, Limp Bizkit, and ICP.

Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, Kenny Rogers, Whitney Houston

I'm assuming I get their full archive of music.

Down with Webster, Hollywood Undead, Tech Nine, and Eminem.

La Roux, Weird Al, Queen, Billy Joel

Ling tosite sigure, Asian Kung Fu Generation, Kendrick Lamar, and Kid Cudi.

Would love to get some electronic music represented in there but I can’t think of any one artist whose music I really love. Maybe Blue Sky Black Death or M83.

Sevendust, Yellowjackets, The Cure, Mozart this would be enough variety for me…

System of a Down, Perfect Circle, Tool, Sublime.

Really hard pick, and not necessarily my top 4 bands, but they are the ones I couldn't go without for sentimental reasons.

Nine Inch Nails, Bowie, King Gizz, the Beatles.

Oughtta give me plenty to work with

The Black Keys, Megan Thee Stallion, Hozier, Lil Nas

• Charlie Patton
• J.S. Bach
• Insane Clown Posse

....uh ... that's really all I need... I guess if you forced me to pick another artist I'd pick Underworld just so I could play Born Slippy if I ever got rescued...

So far, I think I'd visit OP's island over anybody else's.

Mine would be Weird Al, Vengaboys, Dua Lipa and Barenaked Ladies.

• Beat Crusaders
• The Offspring
• Streelight Manifesto
• Jabberloop

I'd rather have even just one podcast with massive library of episodes over all the music in the world.
