I've always enjoyed music from as far back as I can remember. From listening to my parents back from late 70s Stevie Wonder , Frank Sinatra￼ , Is Presley￼. 
I was not the best kid growing up so I was stuck in my room or actually wasn't able to leave my room because of Dysfunctionaliry
 ￼80s music from Billy Idol to Rolling Stones to just patch move the order with on a prince Michael Jackson. 
Wasn't till the early 90s it was introduced to metallica .Pantera, SlaterGNR, Suicidal tendencies. And of course I like Tupac biggie Gang Starr it was my jam it still is to this day￼. 
Then in 1999 I was Introduced to EDM (electric dance music ) A good friend of mine you know you got a weed out the really bad DJs are so competitive there's so many bad ones out there but the good ones are really good. Some of my favorites .
