Favorite Music Genres - Page 2

**Matrixdude** · 10-29-2010, 06:03 PM

Metalcore - The Devil Wears Prada/August Burns Red/Asking Alexandria/etc.

Then we've got bands like Of Machines and Enter Shikari and Angels and Airwaves.

I'll listen to pretty much any alternative rock though. Oh and dubstep is only awesome when Enter Shikari infuses it with their music, otherwise it's really not that good...

RobertsonaIsBack · 10-29-2010, 06:18 PM

such a hipster response but the only "dubstep" i really like is burial (and he's barely dubstep either way)

anyways last.fm says thisa bout me:

"I'm into indie, rock, electronic, experimental and ambient"

i guess those are a few really broad genres

**SD-ZzDiAmOnDzZ** · 10-29-2010, 08:36 PM

Pretty much anything except all the mainstream crap that everyone else listens to... Such as Kanye West, and 50 Cent and all them. I used to listen to all Metal, Nu, Deathcore, Hardcore, etc... But now I only listen to it sometimes. I like some underground Rap such as Immortal Technique. But I listen to mostly Indie, and Classic Rock at this moment.

Just wanted to know what your favorite music genres are. I really like dance music so my favorite genres are: hardstyle, dubstep, jumpstyle, house, trance, techno, and DnB. Other than that I really only listen to alternative rock, some metal, jazz, and classical music.

Some guy changed a Garage beat into a 2-step and then a couple other guys put other stuff with that 2-step, then people added effects and stuff, and then people heard about it and loved it... It's starting to become mainstream now since Excision was interviewed on MTV and it's been put in commercials and movies now.

RobertsonaIsBack · 10-30-2010, 03:21 PM

basically via people posting dubstep remixes of popular songs on music blogs

**DragonIIDX** · 10-30-2010, 03:39 PM

techno, trance, DnB, and a little bit of everything else

I'm definitely for calm music too - but I'm not sure how to describe it.

Examples:
- My Chrysalis Highwayman (Fallout) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIP90IV6EqA
- Hell (Terminal 11)
- Redding (Fallout) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nYtFgo44ws

The funny thing is, I play hard songs on stepmania and I'd probably expect to listen to faster stuff but tracks that create a sort of "depressing" atmosphere actually can help me concentrate more and are very nice to listen to.
