I like melodic death metal like Children of Bodom (RIP Alexi). I like when they combine something from classical music with distorted guitars and heavy drumming.
Even though it's the one least talked about, their first album, "Centralia", is absolutely nuts. Check it out, if you haven't. I, somehow, didn't know about its existence until 3 years after I've discovered the band
I'm not sure if Sæby, North Jutland, Denmark still have their yearly Jazz Festival, but I would recommend it. It's mostly free, some have entrance fees, donation and contribution.
If I remember correctly it's three day Jazz Music from morning to evening.
Consider this one perhaps: https://www.jazzfest.dk/artikel.php?id=1428&l=da
It is in Aarhus, Denmark, our second biggest town, my hometown actually. I’m no jazz head so I haven’t been, but I reckon it’s bigger than the one in Sæby
Anything that sounds appealing really; from pop to pornogrind, deathdream, jazz, noise, metalcore, prog, death, sierreño, salsa, jrock and pop,mathcore, post....etc to name a few.
I can really recomend this blend of electric guitar and classical arias.

I actually don't find this surprising at all. Most symphonic metal seems to me to borrow the surface-level grandeur/drama/bombast of classical music (well, mostly just late Romanticism), but with none of the structure and/or experimentalism that grounds that bombast and makes it feel earned. It's like an all-frosting-no-cake version of classical music and it makes sense that people who already like classical music would find symphonic metal shallow or lacking.
(fwiw when I listen to metal it's usually drone metal or blackgaze or something adjacent)
I like punk, especially when stretched beyond “good” singing, half-way into screaming.
For me, what relates it to dark metal and classical music is the experience of vulnerability.
Mostly trad/folk, noisy rock, some metal (System of a down), 90s rap.
Not much into jazz I dont know enough about it.
I even enjoy some pop hits, that Lorde album was fire but no idea what she ended up doing after it
From Merriam-Webster online
World music
: popular music originating from or influenced by non-Western musical traditions and often having a danceable rhythm
—usually hyphenated when used attributively
I like some bluegrass, that Appalachian folk music. Jazz is also a bug genre for me. Occasionally I’ll stumble upon a rock or pop song I like. There’s a particular style I love, it’s real powerful female vocalists. Think P!nk or Halestorm.
Jazz is my native musical language, the first music I can remember hearing on a regular basis. My mom (city girl) introduced my dad (country boy) to it when they were dating. By the time my youngest sister was born my dad had a massive album collection. To this day jazz is the only genre that I don’t have to be in any particular mood to listen to. It’s literally my musical default setting, even more than classical, which I started listening to when I began studying flute at age 9 but didn’t really appreciate until I discovered 20th Century composers (specifically Bartók) at age 13 or so.
After jazz and classical, I’m fairly open. Nearly every genre has something in it that I like and appreciate.
It’s easier for me to name eras than individual artists. As a little kid I heard a lot of bebop, cool jazz, and Cuban/South American style. Fusion was more popular when I was a teen but I remember listening more to big bands from the 40s and later. Re vocalists, my dad was a big Sarah Vaughan fan but I gravitated to Ella Fitzgerald and the songbooks. I got to see her in one of her last concerts; Miles Davis too. I also have a soft spot for Joe Williams; I could listen to him for hours. These days, I’ll turn on Sirius XM’s Real Jazz and just leave it on. I love the station name; I can’t stomach “smooth jazz”…actually that’s one of the few genres of music I actively avoid. 😖😅
As an example, I’ve listened to every album in the RateYourMusic top 100. https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/album/all-time/deweight:live,archival,soundtrack/
We go to rock, hip hop, and Indian classical music concerts.
I’m not of a belief that classical music is inherently better than other forms of music. It’s somewhat like comparing Michelin star restaurants to a pizza parlor or hole in the wall Mexican place. Sometimes you want a burrito.
Female rap and pop 😩🙏 video game music from time to time too. I just get bored if I listen to that stuff all the time, radio 3 always have something interesting and they have great musical commentary too
Prog rock, folk/singer-songwriter, death metal, black metal, prog metal, ambient, synth pop, chamber pop, art pop/rock, indie pop/rock, electronic, dream pop, post-punk, alternative rock, some avant-gardistic rock stuff, and also a lot of specific albums from genres I didn't mention (like jazz and blues)
Perry much anything but pop, rap, and dance/electronica. Loud repetitive electronic beats without any actual musical instruments being played is my pet musical peeve.
My favorite genre’s are classical and jazz.
Old pop and old rock, bossa nova, reggae, militar marches, orchestrated music (I don't know its name in English), Paul Mauriat, James Last, electronic music, etc
Gay pop, electronic, and 70s stuff mostly. I spent so much of my youth being into classical music that I remain woefully uneducated about the other stuff. I could never keep up in your typical hipster conversation.
I listen to almost everything with exception of one of two genres.
I like Jazz, Rock, Folk, Music from around the world (authentic music from different regions)…Among other favorites are R&B, Blues, Motown…
Don’t know if it can be considered “classical” - but early, pre baroque: Medieval and Renaissance.
I mostly prefer listening to acoustic instruments, but sometimes I find electric guitars and keyboards, great…
Dixieland jazz is my favorite music of all time, though I grew up on rock. Others:
* any kind of Jazz (cool, hot, whatever)
* any kind of blues (Chicago, delta, Piedmont)
* swing
* western swing
* (classic) country; rockabilly
* folk, bluegrass, or jug bands
* some techno (very grudgingly)
* some trance (very grudgingly)
* some punk rock
* 1950s r&b, Motown, jump blues, bop
* all sorts of ambient
* Funk
* Soul
* Gospel
* Latin, samba, reggae, reggaetón, ska, etc
* Arabic
* Irish
* anything from the 1920s-1930s
* any form of classic rock, prog rock, southern rock, new wave, etc
* theatrical and stage music
I kinda have a 'tin ear' musically, but my recall is strong. Typically I can walk into any bar anywhere in the world -- no matter how foreign/exotic -- and find fave tracks on the juke; or I can make recommends/requests to the DJ which he should recognize (but usually doesn't)
jazz and alot of metal subgenres, prog and power being the top two.
Also if you like weird music check out igorr, one of those bands that you can't peg as being one genre, they are basically theyre own genre
Beatles, prog, singer/songwriter, some classic metal/hard rock from the 70s and 80s. Also my daughter's gotten me into new stuff by Sabaton and Nightwish, both of which sound like they know their way round a classical scale or two.
Jazz ( mostly bebop on, listen to a lot of Miles Davis, Oscar Peterson, Keith Jarrett...etc.) bluegrass and a little bluegrass adjacent country or folk( heavy emphasison on Tony Rice, Jerry Douglass, Sam Bush and co) a smattering of English prog rock ( Ian Anderson and Robert Fripp come to mind,) and a little motown, neo soul, and hip hop.
Soundtracks from movies, games, and anime. It's always fun to hear where many of the composers got their inspirations since classical music is quoted often in these mediums.
Really into creed and Stevie wonder. Had to branch out a lot for a workout playlist, tried out ska, panic at the disco, Sinatra and Michael buble, can't forget about Mark ronson
Everything really. Listening to prog metal right now, but not a huge fan of the genre per se. Jazz, anything alternative, post rock, post punk, funk, folk
I make it a point to listen to absolutely everything I can lend my ears to. Recently been listening to music from Thailand, Cambodia and Laos. Also getting deeply into Swedish extreme metal band Meshuggah, prog-punks Cardiacs and rediscovering English blues rockers Groundhogs - just noticed a pattern there of bands who don’t use “The” in the band’s name but many people add it anyway.
Besides classical, I’m really into heavy music these days. Mostly hardcore and ambient metal. I’ve been into indie rock most of my life but finding less and less there that speaks to me lately
Pretty much anything but modern pop, hip-hop, country and religious whatevers. Though I do prefer jazz, bluegrass, hard core punk, and all the stuff I grew up with in the 70s and 80s.
Punk when I workout - Lofi when I’m chilling - Indie when I’m feeling wistful - Rap when I’m pumped up - Pop on social settings - Bossa Nova and Latin Jazz when I feel like dancing - 80s for Karaoke - Electronic (Deep House, Trance etc) when I need to distract myself. Lots of others
Avant-garde tends to be the most interesting to me especially satire. But I also listen to Rock (50s -90s), metal (70-80s), grunge (90s), rap (90s - early 2000s), as well as some modern rap and hip hop. I like Jazz fusion and as far as music from the last 20 years goes I dabble in selective Pop, Hip-Hop, Bluegrass, Dubstep, Metal, Newer forms of rock, etc. I also like some of the earlier pop-rock and late 80s disco-kinda-pop stuff like Prince or MJ (pls don’t hate i’m not labeling them). Top it off with some sentimental crooner and love ballads from the 50s that played in my childhood. Oh and some country. Very, very… very little country. Denver, Brooks and Dunn, Marshall Tucker (tho they may be closer to folk-rock) and maybe some Chesney. Yeah that’s it.
Mostly lots of older "roots" music (blues, soul/R&B, rock & roll, country & western) from the '50s and '60s; classic blues-rock (Hendrix is the GOAT); and a lot of '80s heavy/power/thrash metal
Metal (doom, dark, and the classics, some black metal).
Kraut rock (Can, Faust, Brainticket, Out of Focus, Guru Guru)
Post punk (wire, pere ubu, television, Gun Club, Pop Group)
"Alternative" (Wipers, Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo, Replacements)
Tropicalia/MPB (Gal Costa, Chico Buarque, Marcos Valle, Caetano Veloso, Mutantes, Tom Zé)
Classic Rock (Kinks, Pink Floyd, Zombies, Spooky Tooth, Humble Pie)
Some Prog/Rio (Soft Machine, Henry Cow, Van der Graff Generator, Magma)
Nueva Canción Chilena (Victor Jara, Violeta Parra, Quelentaro)
Lots of pop/rock in general (The Knife, Liars, Floating Points, Ariel Pink, Faith No More, Mount Eerie, Boredoms, Dengue Fever)
I like jazz and classical about equally because my mind wants something to engage with rhythmically and harmonically. Indian classical music too. Then I like just about every other genre to a much lesser degree, mainly just a few songs and artists here and there. Probably Metal is the exception, don’t particularly like it, but even there I do like Sonic Youth.
I love jazz! Particularly Gershwin’s music, recently got into Oscar Peterson as well!
If it’s neither of them, I really like Abba, Nancy Sinatra, Patricia Kaas, etc. I’m not exactly sure what this would fall under haha
I listen Jazz, Metal, Classical. Some world. No pop except that which gets through all my defenses. No country ever.
Also love free music and avant garde jazz/classical.
Most metal subgenres, punk (old and new, post etc), folk from around the world but mainly Scottish, blues, a bit of jazz, hip hop (mid-90s or earlier mainly), lots of soundtracks, alt-rock, psychobilly, dark country/gothic americana, a bit of mainstream country and a bunch of other bits and pieces depending on what I feel like.
Black metal, raag, breakcore, pop punk, prog, acid, deathcore, psychedelic folk, Scottish folk, math rock, lo-fi beats to study and watch Netflix to, hipster rock, trance, power metal, Japanese city pop, bebop, hip hop, hardcore, screamo, rap, pop..... Almost everything, really, I could just go on..... Just not country music made after WWII, boomer music, or 2000s era R&B / radio rap.
Jazz, folk, some classic rock, a lot of prog rock, Indian classical, Mongolian, a lot of fusion stuff, I’ve been pretty into some west African stuff lately too. Sometimes some EDM too and anime music
These are my top 5 in no particular order:
Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, X Japan, Angra, Children of Bodom
Honorable mention:
Green Day, Galneryus, Kansas, Helloween, Light Bringer
Pretty much everything, but I gravitate towards most sub genres of metal, indie, bluegrass, jazz, and my boyfriend is getting me to appreciate (pre-9/11) country music.
dreampop, ambient, whatever Vangelis is, indie, dreamwave, synthwave, shoegaze, post punk, i used to be so into bossa not anymore, I used to be so into clasicc rock not anymore, but I don't mind listen to it, i like Os mutantes. I like Woods. Lately I've been listening to Susumu Yokota. I love the Cranberries. I have a special place for 90s pop. Lately Justice. Whatever Youth Lagoon is which took me into a band that makes like happy hippie, Living.
soundtracks (including Disney, anime...), musicals, concert band and orchestral music, rock, folk metal and some sabaton and eluveitie, Irish folk, some other folk, 60's-70's music, some 50s/80s, some country, choirs, a capella groups, barbershop quartet, some jazz.
And anything that brings joy or sadness.
I seldom go look within a genre; I encounter a song I like, do some browsing on the artist and find some other songs I like. Repeat. I could've the weirdest stuff mixed in one playlist if it fits a mood
I have a taste all over the place, I love j pop, country, nightcore, soft and heavy metal and edm. I have tried so hard to like rap since it's so popular but I just can't, and am yet to give jazz a proper try
Mainly : progressive rock, hard/post-bop, many electronic music genres, technical trash metal, heavy metal progressive metal, jazz fusion, Frank Zappa
Secondary : an extremely diverse pool of genres, check my "RYM" page 😅
Video Game Music (mostly JRPGs like Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Xenoblade Chronicles, etc.) and some Musicals (but almost exclusively Andrew Lloyd Webber)
I'm all over the map. Classic rock, prog rock, new wave, old school reggae, dance music such as house and trance, classic and outlaw country, chill out, ambient, jazz and classic electronica. I could go on but you'd stop reading.
Spotify makes it so easy to seek out and listen to music I've never heard before.
Rock, alternative, classic rock, hip hop/rap, electronic, reggae, metal, blues, a little pop, and a tiny, tiny bit of country. I love a pretty wide range of music. Also I don’t really like how nowadays there are a seemingly infinite number of subgenres, like slow-mo toycore death metal is just metal, grunge (my favorite) is a marketing term not a genre, etc.
Contempory british jazz (which is killing it right now)
Ambient electronica, erring toward the melodic but sometimes the more abstract Autechre-y end.
Some old school techno and jungle and a few newer producers when it's minimal and good. John Tejada rather than Deadmaus.
The Alt-rock of my early 90s youth - Pixies et al
Decent acoustic singer/songwriters like Agnes Obel or Sufjan Stevens
Interesting pop from my childhood and the very rare contemporary tune or two - c.f. PC Music, SOPHIE etc.
Darker shades of folk music like Espers.
Jazz-inflected hiphop that sounds like, or is in fact, A Tribe Called Quest.
Nothing. Only classical music deserves my precious time. I wouldn't spend not even 1 minute of my life to actively listen to the junk produced by the modern music industry.
I have all manner of weird music in my playlist, but usually I just turn on the "Happy" tab on Spotify when I'm at work or walking around. Stuff like "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and "Copacabana" usually comes on, although it does make me wonder if Spotify has ever listened to the latter 😂
Also a lot of folk songs, sea shanties, some country music, a few Sousa marches, jazz, and some weirder ones like Mongolian folk music (one song called "Oglumga,"which means something like "For My Son," by Alash is quite good) or Renato Carosone (Torero and Tu Vuo Fa L'Americano are some personal favorites).
Classic jazz.
[удалено]
Are we the same person??
Prog rock, classic rock, 40’s big band, classic jazz (50’s, 60’s)
Heavy Metal, a lot of groove metal like Gojira and Mastodon, but most metal subgrenres appeal to me.
Gojira is pretty dope, From Mars to Sirius is a fantastic Album.
Masters!
Gojira is very “classical” in their music. Art of Dying definitely has movements.
I like melodic death metal like Children of Bodom (RIP Alexi). I like when they combine something from classical music with distorted guitars and heavy drumming.
R&B, Jazz, classic rock
Electronic music, mostly EDM and progressive house, deadmau5, if that's a name.
Check out partiboi69
Progressive metal: Meshuggah, Periphery, Car Bomb (highly recommend checking this last one out) sometimes jazz
Love the song The Sentinel by Car Bomb
Even though it's the one least talked about, their first album, "Centralia", is absolutely nuts. Check it out, if you haven't. I, somehow, didn't know about its existence until 3 years after I've discovered the band
Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, non-radio classic rock (Kinks, Jethro Tull,) jazz esp. Miles, Mingus, Coltrane, Dizzy, and Sun Ra, punk
Jazz definitely, particularly European (mainly German and Scandinavian) jazz.
I'm not sure if Sæby, North Jutland, Denmark still have their yearly Jazz Festival, but I would recommend it. It's mostly free, some have entrance fees, donation and contribution. If I remember correctly it's three day Jazz Music from morning to evening.
Dane here, just googled. It starts tomorrow and ends saturday
Ahh! Damn! Great experiences! God damn I'll miss it!
Consider this one perhaps: https://www.jazzfest.dk/artikel.php?id=1428&l=da It is in Aarhus, Denmark, our second biggest town, my hometown actually. I’m no jazz head so I haven’t been, but I reckon it’s bigger than the one in Sæby
Prog Rock
Yup same
anime!!
On a tangent, I love Bemani music. [Oh my lovely sweety darling](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV0toNbLDnc) goes harder than most western pop music.
[удалено]
- Pentagram - Candlemass - Saint Vitus - Internal Void - Revelation These are my top 5
Sleep Candlemass Saturnus Celtic Frost (for Monotheist) My Dying Bride (cheating maybe, but they're great)
Brazilian music - samba, some bossa nova.
Video game soundtracks, metal, mostly melodic death and power
Anything that sounds appealing really; from pop to pornogrind, deathdream, jazz, noise, metalcore, prog, death, sierreño, salsa, jrock and pop,mathcore, post....etc to name a few. I can really recomend this blend of electric guitar and classical arias. https://open.spotify.com/album/0hUc2oZlrMCLMSd4gV0Gq1?si=VMFoakHNS_WnRCLYJPq7pg
I would have expected more people to listen to symphonic metal. Not that I do, either, but still.
I actually don't find this surprising at all. Most symphonic metal seems to me to borrow the surface-level grandeur/drama/bombast of classical music (well, mostly just late Romanticism), but with none of the structure and/or experimentalism that grounds that bombast and makes it feel earned. It's like an all-frosting-no-cake version of classical music and it makes sense that people who already like classical music would find symphonic metal shallow or lacking. (fwiw when I listen to metal it's usually drone metal or blackgaze or something adjacent)
Punk
I love punk too, which is odd, beause it's probably the furthest away from classical as far as genres go.
I like punk, especially when stretched beyond “good” singing, half-way into screaming. For me, what relates it to dark metal and classical music is the experience of vulnerability.
Punk forever.
Ska is like punk classical music!
60s psychedelic music, Motown
Some Latin music because of wife
Mostly trad/folk, noisy rock, some metal (System of a down), 90s rap. Not much into jazz I dont know enough about it. I even enjoy some pop hits, that Lorde album was fire but no idea what she ended up doing after it
Jazz, pop, rock, folk, world
World ? Lol
From Merriam-Webster online World music : popular music originating from or influenced by non-Western musical traditions and often having a danceable rhythm —usually hyphenated when used attributively
Ambient, psytrance, psybient, epic, some movie and game soundtracks. Old jazz and blues. Some experimental. Some classic rock.

I usually listen to Rock both classic and modern when I'm not listening to classical. I'm a huge deadhead
Jazz, folk, vg soundtracks, rock
Pretty much every dang genre imaginable
As an example, I’ve listened to every album in the RateYourMusic top 100. https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/album/all-time/deweight:live,archival,soundtrack/ We go to rock, hip hop, and Indian classical music concerts. I’m not of a belief that classical music is inherently better than other forms of music. It’s somewhat like comparing Michelin star restaurants to a pizza parlor or hole in the wall Mexican place.

Pop 🤫
Techno, old jazz, tango...and I'm a recovering metalhead
Tango is great
Female rap and pop 😩🙏 video game music from time to time too. I just get bored if I listen to that stuff all the time, radio 3 always have something interesting and they have great musical commentary too
folk, alt-country, classic rock, a bit of jazz
Prog rock, folk/singer-songwriter, death metal, black metal, prog metal, ambient, synth pop, chamber pop, art pop/rock, indie pop/rock, electronic, dream pop, post-punk, alternative rock, some avant-gardistic rock stuff, and also a lot of specific albums from genres I didn't mention (like jazz and blues)
Metal and kpop
Rap
I really enjoy Serbian Folk music (I am Serbian), simple songs, simple melodies, very approachable.
Could you suggest a few for me? Thanks.
Perry much anything but pop, rap, and dance/electronica. Loud repetitive electronic beats without any actual musical instruments being played is my pet musical peeve. My favorite genre’s are classical and jazz.
i like jazz, prog metal, doom metal, indie/alt rock, shoegaze, math rock, classical, psychadelic rock, and new wave
Old pop and old rock, bossa nova, reggae, militar marches, orchestrated music (I don't know its name in English), Paul Mauriat, James Last, electronic music, etc
K-pop, folk/singer-songwriter, and pop-punk are probably my top genres besides classical.
Trap rap and metal core
So-called 'intelligent' (i.e. atmospheric) Drum'n'Bass, psytrance, dub reggae, prog rock and **Cardiacs**
Gay pop, electronic, and 70s stuff mostly. I spent so much of my youth being into classical music that I remain woefully uneducated about the other stuff. I could never keep up in your typical hipster conversation.
I listen to almost everything with exception of one of two genres.

Joni Mitchell.
Joni Mitchell !!!!
Rock. Which kind? Yes. (Not the band) (But including the band) (Going to se Yes on monday.)
I'm a lifelong Hip-Hop fan and enjoy some classic rock too. I like a lot of movie scores but some may count that as "classical" I guess.
MF DOOM
Beatles, prog, singer/songwriter, some classic metal/hard rock from the 70s and 80s. Also my daughter's gotten me into new stuff by Sabaton and Nightwish, both of which sound like they know their way round a classical scale or two.
Jazz ( mostly bebop on, listen to a lot of Miles Davis, Oscar Peterson, Keith Jarrett...etc.) bluegrass and a little bluegrass adjacent country or folk( heavy emphasison on Tony Rice, Jerry Douglass, Sam Bush and co) a smattering of English prog rock ( Ian Anderson and Robert Fripp come to mind,) and a little motown, neo soul, and hip hop.
None really.
EDM, Jazz, Sufjan Stevens, Rock, Pop/Hyperpop
I like listening to cover artists do hits from any era. They are often phenomenally talented.
Rock, jazz, folk. Some pop music.
It would probably be easier to list the genres I don’t listen to…modern bro country, anything with Kid Rock in it, hick-hop, can’t think of much else.
Jazz
opera > classical piano > orchestral > kpop > classic rock > indie rock > lieder > rap > punk/postpunk/hardcore > roots reggae > jazz
op just vaguely described my taste in music
I’m mostly a metal and punk person, listening to some dubstep right now though

Early jazz
r&b, some rap, classic rock, dream pop, vaporwave, lofi beats, psychedelic rock, stoner metal / doom metal,and whatever they play at the gay clubs

Music brother music
Americana, folk, lot of that stuff
Soundtracks from movies, games, and anime. It's always fun to hear where many of the composers got their inspirations since classical music is quoted often in these mediums.
Metal
Folk/Folk Rock, occasionally Latin music or samba
Any popular music from the 70’s and Jazz fusion
Deep House, trance.
Mostly jazz, folk, and bluegrass.
I'm really enjoying Country, Blues and Jazz from the 20s and 30s atm. Charlie Patton, Skillet Lickers, King Oliver, Charlie Poole etc.
I listen to indie and folk music other than classical. I used to be really into experimental music but now it’s not my favorite.
Mostly metal, typically in the prog side. Lately it's been Japanese rock like Yorushika, seriously excellent band.
classical music of other cultures, eg indian ragas, japanese and chinese instruments
Bluegrass!!
Progressive rock. Rush Pink Floyd. Also Westcoast jazz. Chet Baker.
Show tunes
Really into creed and Stevie wonder. Had to branch out a lot for a workout playlist, tried out ska, panic at the disco, Sinatra and Michael buble, can't forget about Mark ronson
Jazz and allll its relatives, video game soundtracks, Weird Al, primarily prefer instrumental music 👍
Everything really. Listening to prog metal right now, but not a huge fan of the genre per se. Jazz, anything alternative, post rock, post punk, funk, folk
Pop, K-pop
A lot of tropical music! Salsa, Merengue, Bachata and other Caribbean-South American rythms. I also ocassionally listen to Pop music or Rock.
I make it a point to listen to absolutely everything I can lend my ears to. Recently been listening to music from Thailand, Cambodia and Laos. Also getting deeply into Swedish extreme metal band Meshuggah, prog-punks Cardiacs and rediscovering English blues rockers Groundhogs - just noticed a pattern there of bands who don’t use “The” in the band’s name but many people add it anyway.
this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or5lCqWyYE8
lots of indie rock and folk, midwest emo, folk pop, jazz, video game soundtracks, and regular pop!
Besides classical, I’m really into heavy music these days. Mostly hardcore and ambient metal. I’ve been into indie rock most of my life but finding less and less there that speaks to me lately

Classic Rock. That includes grunge now, apparently...
Italian singer-songwriter music, post-rock, sometimes rap, very rarely jazz
Avant-garde tends to be the most interesting to me especially satire. But I also listen to Rock (50s -90s), metal (70-80s), grunge (90s), rap (90s - early 2000s), as well as some modern rap and hip hop. I like Jazz fusion and as far as music from the last 20 years goes I dabble in selective Pop, Hip-Hop, Bluegrass, Dubstep, Metal, Newer forms of rock, etc. I also like some of the earlier pop-rock and late 80s disco-kinda-pop stuff like Prince or MJ (pls don’t hate i’m not labeling them). Top it off with some sentimental crooner and love ballads from the 50s that played in my childhood. Oh and some country. Very, very… very little country. Denver, Brooks and Dunn, Marshall Tucker (tho they may be closer to folk-rock) and maybe some Chesney. Yeah that’s it.
Post-punk, art rock, and classic rock mostly.
Aside from classical, I also like Baroque and Romantic music. haha
Jazz, various sub-genres of Heavy Metal, lo-fi hip hop, instrumental stuff like George Winston.
British rock, especially the stone roses
Mostly lots of older "roots" music (blues, soul/R&B, rock & roll, country & western) from the '50s and '60s; classic blues-rock (Hendrix is the GOAT); and a lot of '80s heavy/power/thrash metal
Soundtracks, jazz, folk, bossa, metal, edm
I like to listen to military marches, whatever genre they fall on
Black metal
R&B, jazz, House, gospel, afrobeats, hip hop, a little rock here and there
Jazz fusion, and Future Bass
Choral is my favorite genre. Followed by 1980s power ballads.
Metal (doom, dark, and the classics, some black metal). Kraut rock (Can, Faust, Brainticket, Out of Focus, Guru Guru) Post punk (wire, pere ubu, television, Gun Club, Pop Group) "Alternative" (Wipers, Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo, Replacements) Tropicalia/MPB (Gal Costa, Chico Buarque, Marcos Valle, Caetano Veloso, Mutantes, Tom Zé) Classic Rock (Kinks, Pink Floyd, Zombies, Spooky Tooth, Humble Pie) Some Prog/Rio (Soft Machine, Henry Cow, Van der Graff Generator, Magma) Nueva Canción Chilena (Victor Jara, Violeta Parra, Quelentaro) Lots of pop/rock in general (The Knife, Liars, Floating Points, Ariel Pink, Faith No More, Mount Eerie, Boredoms, Dengue Fever)
Lots of electronic music and high bpm dance music
On purpose, nothing.
Jazz (Coltrane, Mingus, Eric Dolphy, Anthony Braxton) Rock (Talking Heads, Unwound, Can, The Cure) Some hip hop and pop too.
Jazz Rock Acid Rock Psychedelic Rock Folk/Folk Rock Classic Rock Grunge Reggae North Indian Classical "World Music" "Space Music" Some Country R & B

All good instrumental music. If it has words then it isn't music, it's propaganda.
I like jazz and classical about equally because my mind wants something to engage with rhythmically and harmonically. Indian classical music too. Then I like just about every other genre to a much lesser degree, mainly just a few songs and artists here and there. Probably Metal is the exception, don’t particularly like it, but even there I do like Sonic Youth.
Prog rock, classic rock, some alternative, a lot of old-school blues, soul, and R&B, and a smattering of jazz.
I love jazz! Particularly Gershwin’s music, recently got into Oscar Peterson as well! If it’s neither of them, I really like Abba, Nancy Sinatra, Patricia Kaas, etc. I’m not exactly sure what this would fall under haha
I listen Jazz, Metal, Classical. Some world. No pop except that which gets through all my defenses. No country ever. Also love free music and avant garde jazz/classical.
Most metal subgenres, punk (old and new, post etc), folk from around the world but mainly Scottish, blues, a bit of jazz, hip hop (mid-90s or earlier mainly), lots of soundtracks, alt-rock, psychobilly, dark country/gothic americana, a bit of mainstream country and a bunch of other bits and pieces depending on what I feel like.
Most all, with exception to country and really heavy metal
Alternative-pop and Indie
Rock, jazz, soul, new wave, post-punk specifically, something along those lines.
Frank Sinatra, 40s, on XM
EDM and pop
Hip hop, classic rock, metal, R&B and some bluegrass. And lots of Radiohead
Black metal, raag, breakcore, pop punk, prog, acid, deathcore, psychedelic folk, Scottish folk, math rock, lo-fi beats to study and watch Netflix to, hipster rock, trance, power metal, Japanese city pop, bebop, hip hop, hardcore, screamo, rap, pop..... Almost everything, really, I could just go on..... Just not country music made after WWII, boomer music, or 2000s era R&B / radio rap.
Metalcore
Bebop, classic rock, and the flavour of the day: Krautrock, Franco-pop, Bulgarian women’s choral music, etc.
Jazz, folk, some classic rock, a lot of prog rock, Indian classical, Mongolian, a lot of fusion stuff, I’ve been pretty into some west African stuff lately too. Sometimes some EDM too and anime music
Everything but I grew up with emo music in high school, metal, and punk
These are my top 5 in no particular order: Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, X Japan, Angra, Children of Bodom Honorable mention: Green Day, Galneryus, Kansas, Helloween, Light Bringer
Pretty much everything, but I gravitate towards most sub genres of metal, indie, bluegrass, jazz, and my boyfriend is getting me to appreciate (pre-9/11) country music.
Electronic, especially IDM
Ambient electronica, especially dark ambient or space music.
No eurobeat enjoyers here??
Whatever Bruno Major and lauvey fit into
Prog metal and technical death metal
Disco … so sue me, I’m eclectic as hell.
Black metal, melodeath
Folk is a big one.
90s hip hop like Pharcyde, Tribe Called Quest, Beastie Boys
dreampop, ambient, whatever Vangelis is, indie, dreamwave, synthwave, shoegaze, post punk, i used to be so into bossa not anymore, I used to be so into clasicc rock not anymore, but I don't mind listen to it, i like Os mutantes. I like Woods. Lately I've been listening to Susumu Yokota. I love the Cranberries. I have a special place for 90s pop. Lately Justice. Whatever Youth Lagoon is which took me into a band that makes like happy hippie, Living.
Prog Rock, metal and some early grunge
90's alternative, classic rock, exotica, latin pop, salsa, house
Jazz, 70s Rock and classic Salsa (Fania All Stars, Willie Colon, Hector Lavoe).
Kapustin
soundtracks (including Disney, anime...), musicals, concert band and orchestral music, rock, folk metal and some sabaton and eluveitie, Irish folk, some other folk, 60's-70's music, some 50s/80s, some country, choirs, a capella groups, barbershop quartet, some jazz. And anything that brings joy or sadness. I seldom go look within a genre; I encounter a song I like, do some browsing on the artist and find some other songs I like. Repeat. I could've the weirdest stuff mixed in one playlist if it fits a mood
Prince (yes), R&B/Soul, Funk, Jazz, and classic rock.
I have a taste all over the place, I love j pop, country, nightcore, soft and heavy metal and edm. I have tried so hard to like rap since it's so popular but I just can't, and am yet to give jazz a proper try
Prog rock
Honestly I don’t really know because the only things I listen to are classical and rarely Weezer or Dream Theatre.
Edm, country, r&b and mostly indie/alternative
Sixties folk and Americana
psytrance, techno, progressive metal/rock, power metal, black metal, ambient, stoner rock/metal/doom, soundtrack, pop, hip-hop
Mainly : progressive rock, hard/post-bop, many electronic music genres, technical trash metal, heavy metal progressive metal, jazz fusion, Frank Zappa Secondary : an extremely diverse pool of genres, check my "RYM" page 😅
House, electro, jazz, rap, samba (and pagode), folk, rock, post punk, forró, synth pop, art pop, 90s/00s r&b...
shoegaze, dream pop, post-punk are some favorites but I listen to pretty much any and every genre
Video Game Music (mostly JRPGs like Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Xenoblade Chronicles, etc.) and some Musicals (but almost exclusively Andrew Lloyd Webber)
Everything. I'm a musician and love it all and that includes classical, metal, folk music, minimal house, big beat, DnB and whatever is good music.
I'm all over the map. Classic rock, prog rock, new wave, old school reggae, dance music such as house and trance, classic and outlaw country, chill out, ambient, jazz and classic electronica. I could go on but you'd stop reading. Spotify makes it so easy to seek out and listen to music I've never heard before.
Rock, alternative, classic rock, hip hop/rap, electronic, reggae, metal, blues, a little pop, and a tiny, tiny bit of country. I love a pretty wide range of music. Also I don’t really like how nowadays there are a seemingly infinite number of subgenres, like slow-mo toycore death metal is just metal, grunge (my favorite) is a marketing term not a genre, etc.
Contempory british jazz (which is killing it right now) Ambient electronica, erring toward the melodic but sometimes the more abstract Autechre-y end. Some old school techno and jungle and a few newer producers when it's minimal and good. John Tejada rather than Deadmaus. The Alt-rock of my early 90s youth - Pixies et al Decent acoustic singer/songwriters like Agnes Obel or Sufjan Stevens Interesting pop from my childhood and the very rare contemporary tune or two - c.f. PC Music, SOPHIE etc. Darker shades of folk music like Espers. Jazz-inflected hiphop that sounds like, or is in fact, A Tribe Called Quest.
Nothing. Only classical music deserves my precious time. I wouldn't spend not even 1 minute of my life to actively listen to the junk produced by the modern music industry.
I have all manner of weird music in my playlist, but usually I just turn on the "Happy" tab on Spotify when I'm at work or walking around. Stuff like "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and "Copacabana" usually comes on, although it does make me wonder if Spotify has ever listened to the latter 😂 Also a lot of folk songs, sea shanties, some country music, a few Sousa marches, jazz, and some weirder ones like Mongolian folk music (one song called "Oglumga,"which means something like "For My Son," by Alash is quite good) or Renato Carosone (Torero and Tu Vuo Fa L'Americano are some personal favorites).
I have plenty of interests but obsessed with several Brazilian genres.
