Do people with Aspeger's listen to old music?

I also love old music. Reggae, Rap, and R&B especially have all suffered from the modern "auto-tune" phenomenon.

I like really old stuff like swing and big band music, though some of the 70's is good too. I also love to listen to the old radio dramas too.

The two major kinds of music I listen to primarily both have classic in the name. I still listen to classic rock, born and raised, and classic which I always enjoy telling people that it helped to inspire metal. Both relatively old, especially by what most NT's consider to be old now a days

Looks like I'm the exception here. Much of what I listen to tends to be contemporary and rarely older than 20 years; the "oldest" thing I've put on this past week or so is probably stuff from Joe Henderson. Otherwise, a lot of cutting-edge jazz, alternative rock, and other indie crap you ordinarily wouldn't run into on the radio.

I think the question is less "Do people with AS listen to old music?" and more like "Do people with AS listen to good music?"

I specialize in old musics [from the 20s through the 80s] and the digital audio restoration of the analog portion of that timeframe.

Maybe it's a sensory issue? Several people have mentioned disliking autotune.

autotune is a useful tool to extract utility from futility as far as a singer's voice goes. but when it is used as a patent artifice, it grates on my ears.

I like some auto tune stuff.

It's the manufactured garbage that tends to use autotune. Many modern bands don't use it.

I do love old music, classic etc. Even downloaded a tonne of old cylinder recordings from late 19th century/early 20th century.

This song is strange in that it seems to be using simulated or modulated auto-tune.

Yes, I have a thing for 80s music. Some late 70s and early 90s, as well. Today's crap that passes for music.... UGH.

80s music is old? I heard it when it was new and wasn't too fond of it.

Top 20 hits of the 80s

I like music from any period and I'm always looking for new music. I'm attracted to despair, alienation, and a heavy minor key. A lot of over-produced over-synthesized peppy songs were popular in the 80s, but it still had post-punk and a sort of pre-grunge and some outliers like the Smiths that I liked and like,

My favorite period for "modern/popular" music is the 80's I was born in 1980 so did hear all of it through my childhood. In the early 90's I stopped listening to current music and immersed myself in the 60's. I had heard 60's music before, obviously, but never delved fully into it. I like a lot of 70's but am more picky. The 50's are also good, as is the rest of the 20th century going back. I don't like much of the music from the mid 90's to present. I feel like it has gone downhill. There are occasionally light in the darkness (Daft Punk's Random Access Memories for one) but my interest in "new" music is from genres such as new age, instrumentals, game music, electronica, and chip tunes.

my love of music from the dawn of recorded music, is what got me into DSP of audio in the first place, IOW my desire to hear the music in as close a form as possible to what it must've sounded like in the original recording studio venue.
