I pretty much avoid everything with a four-on-the-floor beat, but music I
adore includes but is not limited to:
classical - particularly from the romantic and impressionistic periods
blues and some rock'n'roll
60s and 70s rock (Beatles, Sabbath, ELP, Donovan, Eagles...)
50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s pop (Dusty Springfield, Diana Ross, Aguilera,
Queen...)
90s rock (Radiohead, Weezer, Greenday, Living End, Ben & Jason...)
funk (Earth Wind & Fire, Prince, Larry Graham...)
metal (Gwar, Korn, Pantera, most artists on Roadrunner and associated
labels)
hiphop (Funkdoobiest, Cypress, Tribe Called Quest, Dre, Anticon,
Beasties...)
crooners (Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Frankie Vaughan, Tony Bennett,
Sinatra)
jazz (Armstrong, Fitzgerald, Monk, Gershwin...)
ballad-types (Sarah McLachlan, Alanis Morissette, Spiritualized...)
drum'n'bass (jazzy, funky, dark and hard, jump-up, intelligent)
downtempo (portishead, howie b...)
reggae, dub and dancehall
some IDM
mongrel cross-breeds of these types of music make me very happy indeed =)
my three favourite things in music are:
funk influence
dissonant chords
smooth melodies that don't match the chords but sound great anyway
hope that was interesting for y'all.

On Friday night at the Xen thing, their performance was breathtaking,
especially the visuals. For me, the music left quite a lot to be desired for
the most part, but had occasional moments of greatness. The bit with the
vocal samples really rang my bell. My housemate went out and bought their
album first thing on Saturday afternoon so I expect I'll be hearing a fair
bit in the near future.
G-love.
