How has your musical taste evolved lately?

How has your musical taste evolved lately? Do you find
yourself listening to more experimental music? Or maybe
softer, more mainstream music?

After listening to electronic music almost exclusively for
several years, I have in the latest two years or so started
getting more and more into various rock / indie genres,
guitars and stuff. I 'm also listening to softer
electronic-acoustic blends.

I wonder whether it's an age thing or just a natural
diversification.

Even more folk/anti-folk. Been getting some great hip-hop
too. Minimal electronics, ambient. More noise.

I'm just expanding my tastes all the time, really, although
I already cover a lot of ground. I tend to search out
interesting bands/artists rather than looking for stuff
inside specific genres.

idm ---> micro-ambient-jazz ---> ambient-dub --->
drone/noise

I've started appreciating electro more and more this last
year. More than "idm".

I wouldn't say mine is evolving, just growing. I don't cling
to any specific genre, I like any artist that brings
something fresh to the plate.

I'm listening to a lot more jazz and new age music now

perhaps it's because of the long, cold winter days.

I think my taste is evolving pretty similarly. I'm also
beginning to listen more to (neo-)classical stuff and more
ambient.

you scared me, for a second, i thought this was a follow-up

even au second degré (sorry, how do you say that in

i've been into some pretty obscure experimental stuff
lately, and currently im sort of into a jazzy period.

i had a much broader interest couple of years ago, but i
finally came to conclusion most of modern music is a bit
shit. be it electronica, pop, rock, or everything combining
these genres. must be im growing up finally :)

as for me, still into lots of different genres, no matter
whether it's experimental or mainstream. getting more and
more into hip-hop, thanks to combo among others.

i'm going to try toshiya tsunoda.

It's been evolving since I starting vehemently listening to
music, I guess in grade 7 or something. Not evolving anymore
now than it was in high school, but still changing a lot.
Not shifting towards anything in particular though, I'll
listen to the avantist garde or the poppiest pop. I used to
not be into much classical, but that's been the biggest part
of listening rotation the last year/year and a half or
whatever.

Hardly any jazz any more. And I don't think I like breakcore
anymore. I've become more focused on dancing in terms of
what I like.

At the moment I feel a little bit like I've exhausted all
the obvious electronica acts I knew I would love, and now I
can't be bothered to filter through the other stuff for the
sweet jams

actually, it hasnt changed really since i first got into
IDM. you could say that ive drifted even further away from
the normal popular indie stuff normal people listen to in
this country. i used to not mind it, but now i really dont
like it. (coldplay etc.)
