There is no genre that I hate. But mainstream pop Country of today sucks.

And Justin Bieber is far too goofy to love OR hate. It's like someone gave Kidz Bop a million dollars and they made music videos.

I don't really find myself hating any particular kind of music. I do hate certain songs, but not entire genres.

As for what I like, I played the trumpet through high school and university. I don't really do it anymore, but as a result, I gravitate a lot towards Jazz, Big Band music and Swing music.

[eroeru]

Soo... heavy metal rock country? How's that like? Nicklback?

I thought "Rap" was dirtier Hip-Hop. All my musical preferences are selective, regardless of genre. I can't just listen to anything.

I still don't know which is which.. The one with the most erotic I mean!


I often assume Soul and R&B are successors of Blues/Swing. I almost like these newer genres too.

Very cool, bro. Trumpet is among my first 7 favorite instruments.

You know Grunge is no screaming?

Nirvana is grung, for example.

[happy_daiz]

I mostly just listen to stuff nobody's ever heard of, and haven't listened to a radio station in probably 15 years. Pandora (and Echo.com, waaaaaay back in the day - it doesn't exist anymore) introduced me to some gems. Mostly it's all one form of electronica or another.

I tend to recoil in horror from things with a twang.

Yes and half the **** they sing I can't understand lulz. Why I like weird Al's versions of there songs. The key word above was "understanding" not the screaming.

There are two different types of dubstep for the record and whenever people complain about dubstep, what they're really complaining about is brostep which is an Americanised variation that puts emphasis on different elements to make a boring club sound.

The original dubstep was derived from 2-step music's irregular rhythms and, oh I don't know there was kind of a

DUB influence.

It was the original form of DJing from Jamaica where reggae was stripped of its vocals and they would extend its grooves and beat patterns.

Dub music is basically instrumental reggae music. 

It's not like dubstep sounded exactly like an evolution directly of dub music, but the influence was there.

Actual dubstep is heavier on atmosphere in its irregular rhythms, or lower frequencies, but it's significantly more minimal and "quiet" in comparison to like Skrillex stuff.

Burial was probably the most significant and unique entity in dubstep and his stuff was "spookier" and more urbane. you could fall asleep to it, or maybe creep yourself out at night if you wore headphones and took late walks. But Burial is one of those guys who kind of had his own spin on things.

Most other dubstep artists were like Boxcutter or Digital Mystikz who had more definable roots and sounded pretty 2-steppy.
