Geek music.

As established in a much much early post, I have horrible taste in music, my play lists are full of rubbish that would embarrass me if someone else came across my ipod.

But one thing i do like is geek music, so in this post i'm going to list my top 5 geek musicians in no particular order.

note: This is meant to serve only as an introduction into the world of geek music, and there are a lot of great music I have not mentioned here,

1. Jonathan Coulton

I would be loath not to mention Johnathan Coulton not only is he a great singer but his geek credentials are as long as my arm, He wrote the end music for the portal games for heathens sake!

2. Duane and Brando.

A sadly now defunct group, who made nerdcore rap songs to the tunes of some of your Favourite video game music.

Both Duane and brando now sing and record separately but its the stuff they made together i like the best.
