What music do you guys listen to?

I also don't limit my taste as well. On some nights, I tend to go for slow electronic music with a bit of jazz. If you YouTube adult swim bumps. You'll come across a collection of some really great musical taste. Some are really great remixes of older songs like these two songs.

Plasterbrain - Nimbasa CORE (Honda Civic Remix)

I mostly listen to metalcore like slipknot or emo like My chemical Romance

A lot of music terms are interesting things, a lot of people use them to mean a lot of different things.

For some people it seems like emo means pop punk. But for other people, emo is short for emocore. Which is a kind of hardcore punk which was more focused on expressing and sharing inner pain and sadness and other negative feelings. When I hear emo, I personally tend to think of the hardcore bands.

And hardcore means a lot of different genres. It happens to mean both techno and punk. I happen to like both.

This is for my fellow aspies who tend to live in those big cities. Groovy song with some awesome lyrics.

Do you play music yourself?

No, but I' admit. I do have some interest of learning about DJ, and editing a bit.

I'm sure there are people who DJ on Wrong Planet. One of them is named Jayjayuk.

There might be some who are posting on this very thread.

Maybe you could get tips from them.

I'm a big fan of punk and punk-pop, stuff like Green Day, Rise Against, and emo-punk like Three Days' Grace really help me through adolescence, I'm also a big fan of comedy musicians like Tim Minchin

....Slipknot isn't metalcore. Can you elaborate on other bands you like? Anyway, I like MCR.



Three Days Grace is neither punk nor emo in the slightest, they are alternative metal.

I am huge into music. A good amount of time I spend on Youtube listening to full albums, exploring bands and such. My genre interests are everywhere. When I am feeling down I tend to listen to Extreme Metal bands like Meshuggah, Gojira, Converge, etc. Intensity is what I need when feeling down, to be hypnotized by the sheer brutality and heaviness. To take my negative emotions then release them in the energy created by the music. Feels good afterward.

Cool beans

Just like me man. I listen to a wide range of music based on my emotions. From electric pop songs , to traditional rock music. My taste in music has no limit.

LOL...What does "cool beans" mean?

A slang term that actually began it's use in the late 60's/early 70's. Its a slag used to describe something favorable.

These days, mostly post-punk and synthpop (including Italo Disco but not quite house music - yet.) I'm on a big late 70s/early 80s binge - especially Joy Division and New Order recently. I love Kraftwerk, as well.

Been through many phases: 60s orchestral pop, British 60s rock, northern soul, 80s and 90s British indie rock (my first love - the music I liked in high school), 70s punk and art-rock.

I'm starting to drift away from guitar-based music into more stuff with synths and probably eventually, I'll get into electronic music proper. 80s synthpop appeals to me right now because it has the futuristic electronic sound but still has 'proper' songwriting. It has the 3 minute story-telling aspect to it. I have simple tastes in the sense I will never stop loving songs that say everything they need to in about 3 minutes. A lot of serious electronic music is sort of epic and on a classical music scale, which I tend to not actually admire as much as shorter pieces. I'm the same with literature in that I prefer poetry to novels and especially shorter forms of poetry.

I got into synthpop basically from listening to video game music, though I only like a few example of chiptunes.

I like post-punk at the moment probably because I've got a bit sick of listening to white people making blue-influenced rock music. I've developed an interested in the sort of guitar music that's trying to break away from blues. I sort of overdosed on bluesy 60s rock a few years back. My current partner loves that sort of music, so I still have to listen to it when I'm at his apartment or when he puts it on the jukebox in pubs. I only enjoy listening to it these days if it's a songwriter I particularly admire, like Ray Davies (who didn't just rehash the blues, especially after about 1966.) I can also enjoy it when it's got a scuzzy proto-punk or psychedelic element to it, so I can still have fun with garage rock - but I don't play it much out of choice these days.

I don't like most actual 70s punk music these days as I find it a bit too musically and topically predictable. I still have a special interest in Buzzcocks though, because Pete Shelley is a sort of hero of mine.

I haven't liked 90s rock music since I was a teenager, but having listened to it a bit recently, it wasn't as bad as I remembered it being - but the over-compressed production irritated me (even 80s 'big' production is less annoying than that.)

Northern soul will always be my favourite music to dance to.

I've gotten into all sorts of music over the years. Some genres I've liked since I was a kid, while others come and go. My iTunes playlist is kinda like a nostalgia trip sometimes. Lately, though, I've been listening to a lot of soca, K-pop and trap music, among others. I'm actually curious as to what I'll get into next.
