What's Your Favorite Musical Genre?

[AlexN]

Indie: Sadcore/Slowcore (American Music Club, Red House Painters, Soul Whirling Somewhere, Idaho, etc.)

 

[nycgirl84]

Glam rock (early Bowie, T-Rex), punk rock (The Clash), and classic 60s rock (The Doors, The Who).

 

[Bright Tahquil]

I love techno, just that club atmosphere...and its great to dance to!
Otherwise I love r'n'b such as Alicia Keys, Tamia etc

Ahhh, twilight fairy, I love Robbie Williams! I hope you're not dissing him...lol

 

[frenchconnectionuk]

emo...and any kind of rock exept for pop rock and bands that call themselves punk rock...

 

[utopia]

oh it varies according to my mood.

triphop/electronica based rock...basically anything melodic and relaxing yet rhythmic. also, celtic rock, jazz, and modern classical (philip glass, arvo part, etc)

 

[Nemova]

Err, rock... then, rock again. And rock one more time.

And about a hundred more that I'm too lazy to list now.

 

[streetsaremyrunway]

indie and reggae B)

 

[Valentina]

All sorts of jazz, but mainly modern jazz, like KATE MELUA!!! She is great

muzik

my signature style is house, especially progressive house and deep funky soulful and sometimes hard house.
but i like many kinds of music, 60s pop/oldies, 70s radio rock and classic rock, 80s dance/pop, english indie 70s-present, jazz especially 50s & 60s jazz, some hip hop from old skool to now, tons of soul/r&b/funk from 60s to present, some vocals from 40s-60s like nat king cole. i guess the only style i dont listen to is speedcore death metal.

 

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

i would say mostly indie for me


but you cant beat abit of 80's pop like duran duran and adam and the ants. you know classics that are so cheesy their great!


also abit of punk will never go a miss

 

[cerise]

the shorter list would be the ones that aren't my favorites

 

[lady grey]

brooklyns own joe causi

yeah theres a lot of great punk from late 70s and then tons of new wave starting late 70s/80s thats so good, to name a few bands from above, the jam, the clash, new order, orange juice, gang of four, aztec camera, wire, slits, propaganda, jesus & mary chain. then getting into the noise pop & shoe gaze like my bloody valentine, ride, cocteau twins.
also reggae can be so good, Im in a big 70s/80s reggae phase now, sugar minnott, frankie paul, gregory isaacs, augustus pablo, dennis brown, black uhuru.
and african music is great, kind sunny ade, kanda bongo man.
think 80s pop/soul/dance/club is very under-rated, so many graet songs like 'heartbeat' by taana gardner, 'i sp[ecialize in love' by sharon redd; 'must be the music' ; 'a little bit of jazz' by nick straker.
'ring my bell' by anita baker. ' 'aint no stoppin us now' cameo, gap band, teena marie, the whispers 'and the beat goes on' shalimar,
'Ill do anything for you' denroy morgan,
inside out by odyssey. there are a few stations like 102.7 in nyc that play 'dance classics' like that & its amzing how many great songs were hits on urban stations in 80s that sound incredible now, but are not acknowledged as classics outside thwe urban/dance format.
I think as time goes on 'disco' is having a big resurgence & eventually many 80s pop/dance hits will be resurrected as 'dance classics' to a more general audience, not just the urban/club cult.
stuff like sylvester, tavares, ojays, all the club/pop/soul that you hear on the radio is a great format that is gaininjg strength again called 'disco/dance classics'
