Dude, I love Tiesto!! He s amazing DJ and he knows now to live up the party mofo. Personally I think trance or drum n bass is the best choice for deaf people because these genres consist little or no voices which suit better for deaf people IMO.

Without my HA, I don't hear much. With my hearing aids, I can enjoy lower pitch music. I cannot understand words either. However, music sounds more "normal" to me without my hearing aids. I can listen to it via headphones really loud, but then everyone around me knows what I am listening to. I like rhythmic music for dancing and running, but I don't have much of a musical background.
My college roommate is a music performance major. Our freshman year, she was really thoughtful with respect to our musical differences and one day took me to the practice room and had me place my hands on her harp and feel the instrument as she played. |

Yes! I can hear music very clear... However it depends on the song itself. If it's fast with loud drumming and guitars it makes it hard to understand what the artist is saying so I need the lyrics and then I get it from there. I have no issue with music. Music is my life. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!

It's funny...before I became HOH i was going to minor in music...
anyway... i can definitely say that i don't enjoy music like i used to. i miss it LOADS but i still try to listen to it...even though it makes me frustrated and sometimes depressed when i know it doesn't sound the way it used to. i tend to crank it up crazy loud if i won't bother anyone to feel the vibrations and sometimes i can catch where the words are landing...i don't understand the words, but i can tell sometimes that something is being said...so i pull up the lyrics to figure out what is being said. sometimes though it doesn't really work. like i just joined a sign language performance club at my college...and we were learning "Footloose" in a room that didn't really give off any vibrations. so i ended up just watching the people leading and their body language to figure out when to start signing each phrase...it was a bit depressing lol. BUT i came back to my room and have been blasting footloose all weekend and i've figured out how many counts are in between each phrase so i know when to come in! umm...as for what i used to do...i don't sing anymore or play the piano really (i'm hoping that once i get a set of aids i'll enjoy both again though)...and i stopped playing percussion with groups because i couldn't tune the tympanis without a tuner and i was having difficulty following what the conductor said (they always ban the percussion to the back of the group!) sometimes for composition purposes they'd be like "ok, hear the trumpets do this then you come straight in" instead of trying to count...and well that never quite worked. so yeah. lol. i am a softy though for "drum corps"-i think it's because it adds visual to the music so i can follow quite a bit of it...and wow those kids can really BLAST their instruments because if I can make them out then they must be loud right? |

A challenge: Fantasia 2000
I got a challenge for everyone....
If you got DVD/VCR player with A/V output, connect it with stereo, tune volume to a level where you feel comfortable with vibration, insert the movie "Fantasia 2000", place speakers in front of you, take shoe off and place your feet on it. Start watching Fantasia 2000 and feel the vibrations at same time! It's AWESOME! It is a movie about art and instrumental music playing WITHOUT any vocals AT ALL, NOT EVEN A WORD! A mind-blowing experience! |
