Mainly trance and ambient, and also 80s, psychedelic rock, house...
I'm very sensitive to tone.

it will be a very difficult thing for me to describe my appreciation of music, but i will try.

i see patterns in music, and that is what draws my interest. i like music that has more than a singe dimension of patterns, and i like complex structures that emanate from simple patterns that iterate music on a wider scale than just the current bar it is in.
i am a happy person essentially, and so i like tight and elaborate patterns that seem bright to me.
i have a sensation that approximates the sensation of color when i hear a closed loop of a very wide spanning iteration of a musical "journey".

i like major key progressions punctuated by brief minor declensions that recalibrate the loftiness so the major key unfolding expressions can relaunch.

i do not like emotional music because the notes do not paint a brilliant pattern in my mind. emotional music is deliberately played in a skewed and sloppy way that appeals to NT minds i guess, but to me, emotional music is an aimless flurry of sounds that i can not grip with my own creativity.

i do not like lyrics because i think poetry and music are not fundamentally dependent on each other, and the music suffers by each school of input having to modulate itself to fit the other.

to me, musical scores are like mathematics, but mathematics with personality and subjective consciousness infused within it.

i sometimes think of curious mathematical interludes, and try to iterate them in a simple way on the keyboard, and even though my talent for that is small, i can still see why mozart was so obsessed with it.

he had the mathematical imagination of "feelings" that he was able to directly translate to tonic structures, and that is what i find fascinating mainly about music.


like here is a very long simple musical idea (only one musical phrase) iterated in a way that perpetuates the lead up to the final note with many progressive patterns that contribute to the forward flow of of the musical sentence.

if likened to a pattern, the pattern would be this

Are you synaesthete ? You're describing music a bit in a synaesthetic way.

Is it unusual for me to like loud rock music? The only time I feel uncomfortable around that type of music is if I feel I'm disturbing somebody.

I know this stuff (shoegaze/r)! Mazzy Star, Catherine Wheel, The Verve, Jesus & Mary Chain, Lush (ahhhh, Lush).....the first 2-3 years of the 90's had some wonderful music.


One of my favourite genres (even though I'm 17!). All those guitars and soothing vocals melting together.  ̄∀ ̄
But you're forgetting My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive...amazing they are.

I like quite a few other different genres of rock:
Dream pop
Post rock (Especially Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Sigur Ros)
Progressive rock
Britpop
Some noise rock (and by that I mostly mean Swans - love them)
Some alternative rock (e.g. Placebo, early Coldplay, Snow Patrol etc.)

i dont listen to music too often...but i enjoy hip hop the most...too bad i dont fit the image...my fav rapper is vinnie paz from jedi mind tricks...i just wish he'd leave his gangsta image and do more concious/philosophical/deep songs...their song "i who have nothing" is old but has some of his best lyrics and "keep moving" is just amazing...he'll have to change something soon but him and stoupe could make money off their music for a long time

As far as bands and performers are concerned, The Kinks are my favourite band.

cool. a good chunk of my musical tastes now came from the tunes my dad would play in the car on long journeys. california dreamin, led zeppelin, stuff like that.

right now though, i listen to this.



i believe the first time i heard that song was when i was on a trip home from disneyland as a kid. then, i thought it was a woman singing.

even now i feel like i am in a movie whenever it enters my ears.

That's the best decade for music, period.

Age shouldn't be an indicator of what music one likes. That would be sad if teenagers only listened to modern music. During high school, grunge music was all I listened to, soon expanding into other genres. Now I barely listen to it, though, probably because of oversaturation.

EDM at its finest for me. And all kinds of it. Glitch-Hop and Electro House especially. They're absolutely beautiful color-wise. And the visual patterns of the thumping beats just please me like crazy. I listen to music practically nonstop. (Resident Synnie.)

Some more obscure genres I listen to are also Electroswing, mild Trap, Neuro-Hop, and NuDisco. I like a little bit of modern rock, but I'm not a huge fan.

Trap music is the latest pop-music fad. Every pop song now is using that obnoxious hi-hat triplet rhythm. Just like dubstep 5 years ago, it will come and eventually go.

The 1980s stuff is where it's at for me. Oh, and I like some 1970s and 1990s stuff, as well. The current crap that passes for 'music', I dislike.

Mostly progressive rock and classic rock, but I also enjoy some old-school electronic music and other rock and some pop artists. Prog, and especially Rush, has kinda become my major special interest.

Mathcore, Deathcore, Djent and NuMetal. One or two industrial acts. But that's about it. I'm very narrow on my musical tastes.
