I'm still trying to master the myriad genre classifications used on this site, so I'll try to use those when I can: Krautrock Zeuhl RIO Canterbury Experimental Metal Post-Rock But I also listen to these just as much Indie Rock (Yo La Tengo, Guided by Voices, etc ....) Outsider/Lo-Fi (R. Stevie Moore, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti) Prog-Pop (Kayak, Supertramp, Earth and Fire, y'know, stuff with pop hooks and short lengths, but still complex harmonically or structurally) British 60s Rock (Beatles, Kinks, Stones, etc) Hardcore/ Post-Hardcore (Subhumans, Fugazi, Nomeansno, etc) Standup Comedy

Most kinds of Rock (Psychedelic, Progressive, Hard, Classic, Punk, Post-Punk... and so on...)Electronic Music (from early synth-experiments, to 80's new-wave to Aphex Twin and many things inbetween) Jazz (Instrumental. Mostly from 1950-1975. Hard-bop, post-bop, modal, cool jazz, avant garde jazz, free jazz, jazz-rock/fusion) And i'm sure there's more, but that's most of it All of those i prefer if they have an experimental edge.

Symphonic Prog Jazz Rock fusion Hard Rock Heavy Metal RPI Krautrock Classical Music-Symphonic, Opera, Instrumental, Concertos all non classical music is from the period of the late 60s to early 80s with the seventies predominating most classical music is from the Late Romantic period, though i have earlier periods and later, as well In classical music, i tend to favor Historical Recordings (those made before 1960, and have a fascination with Acoustical Process Recordings, those being before 1925) i also listen to seventies Brazillian pop/traditional in the records of Fafa de Belem from that time |

As long as it irritates those around me it's good stuff. Was listening to a live version of FZ's 'King Kong' yesterday and my mum shouted at me to stop pretending to enjoy it.

This month it is mostly German Avantgarde, specifically Popol Vuh, and my own recorded riffs reminiscent of mid-60's rock-n'-roll and '73-'75 Jimmy Page  .Other times it's British folk (Bert Jansch, Nick Drake; the latter for some reason is not recognized by some as a folk figure); New Wave (Talking Heads, PG); hardcore jazz fusion; some guilty pleasure pop (The Carpenters, The Bee Gees, ELO). Hell, I have so much music that my listening trend changes almost every month.

I listen most jazz-related and rock-related styles easier to say what I NOT listen to: 1) crappy pop music (but not all is crappy!) 2) rap, hip-hop, so-called 'rnb' 3) punk, grunge, nu-metal, alternative metal, so-called "alternative" music, and most of 3-chord-driven guitar pop(rock) 4) 'popsy' electonic styles (trance,drunnbass,etc) 5) "extreme" metal subgenres (coprogrind, pornogrind, sh*tgrind, etc) but of course, there are exclusions. Faith No More is great band, even if it's called "alternative" , Muse is good too |

I listen mostly to art music, including classical music of La belle epoque, and some older classical. Apart from that I listen to some 60's and 70's jazz, as well as some contemporary Nordic jazz. I sometimes listen to prog rock of 60's and 70's, too, including the more prog related pop like The Beatles. I don't have any interest towards world music or pop. I also find baroque music too boring to be listened to seriously.

Mostly: Progressive rock, avant-garde, and jazz. But also, rock (classic), classical, some metal, and various folk musics. Trying to get into more of an electronic music as well. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |

| Most genres of prog. Most genres of metal except power and symphonic metal. Rock generally but not really fond of AOR, southern rock or any other style of rock with too much country in it. Some post punk and new wave. Jazz rock/fusion. From 'traditional' jazz genres, mainly modal and cool jazz but if it involves lots of piano, I will listen to it anyway. Some R&B and funk. A few composers each from the different stages of classical music, but I am partial to Bach and Vivaldi. And whatever genre Morton Feldman and Terry Riley are supposed to be, IF they are the same genre at all, that is...I just know that I like a few compositions of both. |

Progressive All sorts...more or less. including jazzfusion, jazzfunk.. Pop mostly 80’s . Ambient New Wave / New Romantic Post-punk Post-hardcore Indie / Alt-rock Not commercial indie of course. Shoegazer Dream pop Trip-hop Post-rock Darkwave: Dark (ethereal) ambient, Neofolk, Neoclassical, Post-industrial, (Power electronics, noise), Goth rock, ”goth shoegazer”, dark electronica. Classical Romantic period, Renaissance (with polyfonic singing) - medieval stuff with (many unknown/unnamed composers), some Baroque (Händel , Bach), Modern classical. I like classical that incorporates folk and has a folk spirit (favourite composers: Janácek, Chopin).
Symphonies, concertoes, piano music, string quartet/quintet pieces, vocal pieces Post folk Folk Lithuanian and Estonian, some Russian, some Nordic. All of the world is interesting though. But I mostly prefer when it is developed out of the traditional rather than being stricty traditional. But sometimes 100% traditional can be great. World/ethnic I’m open to traditional stuff but I welcome development, progressive ambitions. Brazillian pop can be nice if I’m in the mood. Videogame Music: mosty from the range 1980-1999. genrers: avant-garde, classical, prog, symphonic –oriented Lots of fantastic music. Some favourite composers : Hiroshi Tamawari (Vandal Hearts 1-2), Aki Hata (Light Crusader), Hiroki Kikuta (Secret Of Mana) , Masanori Adachi & Souji taor (Castlevania IV), Raphael Gesqua (Fade to Black), Masami Ueda (Resident Evil), Paul Norman (Forbidden Forest), Junko Tamitani (Strider), Mark Cooksey (Storm Warrior and more), Akira Yamaoka (Silent hill 1-2) Movie soundtracks Not much. It can be anything, but typically symphonic or ambient or modern classical oriented. Chill-out, electronica, downtempo laid back music with a nice groove and vibe. By the way, I haven’t explored soul very much but I do like soulfulness and the spiritual energy of gospel. There’s no mention of blues but I definitely like the blues element The same goes for ”rock” I suppose : ) And the same for jazz – I like elements of it, if incorporated into something new that isn’t just ”traditional”. And...it’s unimportant that a band fits neatly into a genre. I’m naturally inclined to like stuff that’s hard to categorize. I want to know more about the music of the 60’s and going backwards.....haven’t heard much! |

I listen to the good stuff! Like dat good old jazz fusion, 60s jazz, krautrock, zeuhl, a bit a this a bit a that. and also ever since last year i've been listening to a lot of that good new rap that's been out here for a while, not so much into "concious rappers" at all, I like stuff like, death grips, the Das Racist dudes with Danny Brown and all of that cool Detroit stuff, a$ap, odd future, Main Attrakionz and all of the amazing producers that work with them. ------------- http://regulab.bandcamp.com/album/vol-i/" rel="nofollow">  |
