Ho Hey is for me one of the best songs of 2012 along with Beach House's <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuvWc3ToDHg&feature=share&list=PLwkpk_HRkMymJSx2v5jTkq9h3s0k7E4un">Myth</a> and alt-J (∆)'s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVeMiVU77wo&list=PLwkpk_HRkMymJSx2v5jTkq9h3s0k7E4un&index=1">Breezeblocks</a>.
 
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu (Geoffrey) from his album ‘Rrakala’.
He is an 'Indigenous Australian musician’ who sings in a language called Yolngu.

He plays guitar left handed, or as they say, upsidedown.
Plays keyboard, drums and didgeridoo as well as singing in his native tongue, and he’s blind from birth.
The album transcends language, culture and musical tastes. In fact, Rrakala has already achieved gold status.

Hope you enjoy this:

This one is really fantastic too. In fact I like all his songs. So filled with the spirit of song it's incredible.

I like a lot of mid 90s alt rock / some newer indie / alt music and of course 60 / 70s classics. The further down you get the newer the music gets. Here is a fairly comprehensive list to make a musical composite sketch. It doesn't include all of them but gives a good cross section. If you have any new indie / alt music or even some any 60s / 70s / 80s that I may have missed feel free to make some suggestions. Anyway, I love music, that's right, I said it. Music and I have had a 30 year love affair and its been great.

Anyway, you get the idea... BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE:
Indie Alt Rock - Keep in mind these bands fit loosely into the genre... I'm just keeping it simple

City and Colour
Coconut Records - New to me... decent sound
Eels - Deserve a double mention... they got some really solid mellow music
Frank Black - Lead Singer of pixies
Jurassic 5 - a little hip-hop off the beaten track
Lousy Robot - just found them... Check out the song "A Not Quite Perfect Film"
Modest Mouse - great indieish music, it's not for everyone but I loves it.
Muse
Pixies - Band from the 80s ahead of their time went on to limited greatness up to mid nineties and went splitsies
Rural Alberta Advantage

Anyway, sorry for taking up a lot of space on the forum, but you asked.
 
You name it, I listen to it...with the exception of Reggae. I was raised on classical, gospel, light rock. But I listen to it all--my mixes are quite eclectic. Everything from Disturbed to Tchaikovsky.

Playing right now? The Hip.
