Only listen to music from between 1890 and 1930 as well?

I'm listening to dixieland jazz right now XD

And as I matter of clarification, "Victorian" refers to from about 1870 to 1900 :V Edwardian is to 1930 ish.

Dixieland Jazz? Fucking badass

I know that, but the only composers I can think of from just late 1800s are Gilbert and Sullivan and Tchaikovsky.

And I always felt like Steampunk could easily go between the late Victorian era and the early 20th century before the Depression. *shrug* Flappers + Gears= just as good as hoop-skirts + Gears.

So up to 1930 or so gives more cool musics. >o<
You could listen to the Threepenny Opera!
That is pretty fucking badass and I think could be translated into steampunk pretty awesomely.

Well I did say I would also dress in Edwardian, so yeah. My attire will be between 1870 and 1930 XD And I don't listen to much classical. Not cos I don't like it, I just don't listen to it much. I'm more into folk music, and jazz, and honky tonk XD

But yeah, if you've got bittorrent or utorrent, look up Benko Dixieland band. It's EPIC <3

I have been going between listening to The Decemberists' Hazards of Love(2009) and Anne Briggs's Hazards of Love(1964) for the past couple days. <3
If you have not heard those things, you really really really really should (fuck Pitchfork, this one's The Decemberists' best. XP (And the Anne Briggs traditional-Scottish-folk-EP is just so weirdly haunting. D: <3)).

And I'm totally looking that up. <3

let me know what you think of them XD

also, I wanna look them up but damn this internet connection 8C

"The Rake's Song" from the Decemberists album: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qM1NuFhXhgA
Only song that particularly works stand-alone. It's also the album's single.

The Anne Briggs EP has no torrent, but all the tracks for it can be found on youtube.
1- Lowlands (trad) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGoWsPfEJZQ
2- My Bonny Boy (trad) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSq_-mLpU7k
3- Polly Vaughan (trad) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4zg0aObkLs
4- Rosemary Lane (trad) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4X6aSkdAjs

And I couldn't find a torrent of Benko Dixieland Band. :C

damn, that song was dark o.o

Also, hmm... you got an email? I could try and send you the album

The Rake's Song, I mean. I'll look at the other links when I have a better connection

They're pretty damn small files in themselves. Just vocal tracks and no video, just a single image of a compilation cover.
So the Anne Briggs songs probably wouldn't be too hard on your connection.

youtube links are ALL slow if they're longer than about thirty, forty seconds.

Also, Alright, I may or may not get around to it, sorry if I don't. My connection's really weak, so I can't do much. :C

Well FUCK. I'm sorry.

It's FINE. ;o;
Don't worry about it.
I don't want to be a bother.

I'm gonna try and send them, but my internet's being weird :C

:C

I love that song. I have been singing about child-murder in my head for the past week.
The album has a kinda cute story, though. A girl from the city, Margaret, goes into the forest and meets a shapeshifter dude, William, and they fall in love, and then they must endures the hazards of that.

I use my MSN as an email address!

I don't want to be a trouble though. D:

Cool
