What Kind of Music do you Listen to?

With my individual music choices, it's a stretch to call this "culture" and it's a debate between "culture" and "the lounge." But since this is a question, I think other people may make this thread a culture thread.

For me it's screamo stuff and it was a competition with gangster rap but over time screamo took over because rap stopped being about street life and got too commercialized. I also like real wild, thrashy guitar solos.

What do you listen to?

I like everything but rap, R&B, D&B, and modern pop music

I got burnt out on metal by the time 1994 rolled around, dont listen to this stuff but rarely anymore, purely for nostalgia

Still listen to some classic rock (not the garbage like Tom Petty, Kiss, Faghat etc)

Classic country, bluegrass, psychedelic/trance, surf, world/folk music of Eurasian countries, psybient, nasheeds, Persian classical, Turkish mehter, Sufi zikr, martial-industrial, you name it

Psybient/psytrance/downtempo/chillout is probably my favorite finding of the last 5 years or so. There is still interesting stuff being done right now. I also like space ambient and the calmer side of electronica too for quieter moods.

I also listen to much less metal than before although sometimes I still listen to the stoner/doom genre.

There is a lot of lesser known but high quality rock from the 1970s.

Persian and Turkish classical music is highly underrated, although it takes some getting used to -- it's very different than Western classical music. The latter I don't listen to as much anymore because I spent many many years listening to it in the car b/c I couldn't stand anything else on the radio at the time. And for Near Eastern/North African music even just regular oud music is very satisfying.

Another genre I like is the old school British and German electronica schools like Tangerine Dream or Brian Eno, that kind of thing. Very simple by the standards of what's possible today, but it still sounds great.

Besides my answer there, you can find moar MACRO MUSE at MacroTube (original discussion was in Ye Old Phora SB in the Elder Ages)

Code:

The above code only works at whigdev, but it could potentially work here too. *cough*

(embedding uploaded music is a bit rough at the moment... I recommend using both an unfurled Xenforo link and and extract the UUID/GUID from the url and wrap it in custom 'macrolink' BBCODE delimiters for now.... this is why we have nice things here [at whigdev] .... )

Anything that is good. I am not particular to any genre. But in practice: mainly Baroque-Romantic (Bach, Beethoven being my favourites), classic rock (Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton, Blue Oyster Cult, Supertramp, some Alice in Chains, Black Sabbath, Slayer), and traditional popular music (songs such as Barbara Allen, Silent night, After the Ball, etc). I also listen to noise in the same way that most people listen to music.
But above all, Led Zeppelin and Beethoven. No one surpasses them.
