What are your favorite music genres?

[linalovelis]

So, I'd like to know what kinds of music you all like since INTPs seem to have an "uncommon" taste. Does any of you like progressive rock? Also, tell me about your favorite artists.

 

[TheManBeyond]

munk-rock

 

[Shieru]

if i had to pick favorites.. electropop, new-age/ambient, chillstep, celtic and melancholy piano make up a lot of my collection. with a dash or two of J-pop of course

 

[INTPmetalhead]

Metal and classical music for me. But to be more specific I really love progressive metal due to its sporadic nature and very odd time signatures. If you haven't checked out Dream Theater, I highly suggest it! They're my favorite for sure. But I'll listen to anything that's "different"; check out The Dear Hunter too (they're not metal... But I'm not sure what their genre is... maybe progressive alternative?) But if you want some classical music that's brutal and beautiful, listen to Bach or Beethoven (my favorite composers for sure!)

Basically anything without a typical formula or structure.

[Niclmaki]

Heavy/progressive metal, and good ol classical.

Savatage / Trans-Siberian orchestra is probably the best specific example.

dubstep/electro
-most emotive genre we've come up with yet, seemingly the most flexible too but there's vicious pitfalls to be had there that i'm still grappling to accept.

melodic death metal/metalcore/progressive/neoclassical
-was in a metal band, can't unhear the music now and there's nothing like a ripping solo to put the cherry on a dark melody.

hip-hop and rap
-grew up with it, it keeps me in touch with the regulars and is rather formulaic when it comes to "hits" which is a boon cause there's only tempo and flow to digest but whatever logic of mine i put here won't satisfy i guess.

house music
-this is good shit, especially progressive house, that 10 minute shit that builds on the same initial beat without being trance music, much lower tempo here, seems to go down well when drunk so i guess that's why it works in the clubs here.

pop
-the cream rises to the top, unlike hip-hop/rap but that's for another day.


generally anything goes though as long as it's "good"

 

[Ericbarker306]

My favourite genre is rock n roll, my favourite band are 70s classics
I also like jazz, funk, and disco.

 

[birdsnestfern]

I like all genres, least favorites are Opera and Rap and some Country. But I will occasionally find something in those genres that I can enjoy. Tops are old 30s and 40's blues, dixie, folk, classic rock, hawaiian, classical piano and flute, and jazz.

 

[IlanaFischer]

Black Metal, Death Metal, Folk Metal, Progressive death

 

[Puffy]

I have pretty eclectic taste in music and will listen to a bit of most genres. I've been listening to a lot of motown this week like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye but next week it'll be something else.

I'd say my roots are in alternative rock/punk/metal and is what I've listened to the most. I've been really loving noise rock for the last year - bands like Daughters, Scratch Acid and Big Black.

 

[Old Things]

I like Christian Black Metal, and Worship Music the best.

One of my favorites here (Blackened Death Metal):

 

[Old Things]

Another more Death Metal vibe (though they are technically doom/thrash).

 

[Hadoblado]

I like energetic or atmospheric music. I like complexity and I like mixing genres (especially with metal). I like versatile vocalists and put a premium on rhythm and novelty.

Lyrics are rarely a priority but bad lyrics make me cringe if they're prominent. Most music I listen to is in another language or the vocals are indistinct.

i dont understand the concept of genre, it's all just sounds to me. Some sounds are more interesting than others
