Before I begin, why the FUCK are all you rappers and Christian rappers following me?? I don't understand it! I I have no intention to listen to whatever sonic dribble you produce, and it's not as if you've listened to any of (what vaguely passes for) my music to warrant following me!

That being said...

I've been a music fan from an early age (two or three years old, at least), and have often dreamed of being a rock star. Sadly, I don't have that fiery talent to play an instrument with any level of proficiency, nor write songs that don't sound contrived or mindless claptrap. Being born in the early 60s, I have an affinity to the rock and pop I've loved while growing up, that of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. That said, I also have a special place in my heart for "odd" music (not necessarily "outsider" music). Groups like Renaldo and the Loaf, (early) Yello, and Art Bears are nectar to my ears. Punk is cool (natch), but I tend to gravitate towards fun pop-punk and away from the snarling, angry, down-with-the-establishment, screaming, atonal punk (it's a bit too hardcore for me). I like music with a sense of humour, or that doesn't take itself too seriously.

You know that phrase, "I don't know much about art, but I know what I like"? That applies to me and music.

To summarize...
I LIKE: rock, pop, progressive, (70s/80s) new wave, pop punk, 70s funk, 70s soul, 70s R&amp;B (as opposed to what passes for "funk", "soul" and "R&amp;B" today), (some) psychedelia, ambient, electronic, instrumental, light jazz, chillout, Celtic, J-pop (specifically Polysics and Plus-Tech Squeeze Box), and IDM.

I DISLIKE: metal/pseudo-metal, Christian/gospel (and music in general with a religious bent), country, hip-hop, rap, trance, dub step, (most) trip-hop, and (most) outsider music.

Naturally, there are exceptions to every rule, but, suffice it to say, I'm very picky about my likes.
