what kind of person are you? Are you one that tends to get bored of different genres quickly or do you have an undying love for the same genre? I, myself, find that I bounce all over the map constantly. From jazz to punk to old school hip hop to IDM to death metal. I also find it quite odd and wonder if it at all reflects my personality. I tend to not easily make up my mind. Always looking at things from different angles. |

Undying love for... music. I have a group of favorite artists, from lots of genres, that I NEVER get bored of. Actually, I usually just start appreciating them more, and have a better understanding of WHY I like them so much. I do go through phases where I'll only listen to, say, twee pop for a few hours, then I'll only listen to ambient or something for a the next few. Nothing on a large scale, though, it's not like I'll go a couple of weeks without listening to a genre, then just suddenly wake up to it again. |

Hip hop, electronica and drum and bass are all "constants" (or have been the past few years), I do go through phases of liking particular genres or artists more and certianly when making music, I tend to do say 5-10 tracks of one genre (illbient at the moment) and then switch to something else. |

Also as i was thinking about how some of us tend to "bounce" genres.... do you think that there is a percentage of people that are dominately IDM listeners that bounce as opposed to someone who listens to prodominately Rap (ie 3 6 mafia and such) Does it say something about the openmindedness of the IDM community? |

A lot of people seem to think IDM listeners are on a high horse... dickheads that are just as closeminded as everyone else, if not moreso. But honestly in my experience, I think an ''IDM'' listener is more likely to have a broader range of musical interests. Now, there ARE the handful of twats that DO denounce anything with a guitar, or anything that's actual, well, successful, but I usually find out about the more interesting musiques, electronic and otherwise, by people with an IDM background. The people that have gotten me into the best music (of all genres) I've heard have had an IDM pedigree. That's just my experiences and impression though, maybe we really are fuckfaces of the highest order, and I've just been lucky. |

I like my music either very ambient and soft, or very noisy and frantic. And, either very pop-sensible or very experimental. Middle ground doesn't usually do it for me (but there are quite a few exceptions). I'm a fan of melody and harmony, so if something's got a good beat but a shit poor melody, I probably won't like it too much.. unless it's a really fucking kickass beat. |

i listen to what i like. if i don't like it, i don't listen. pretty much the only genre's in which i haven't found music i really like are SKA and reggae. i mean, i like some of what i've heard, but i've never really been compelled to just sit and listen to any of it. |
