When was the last time you found piece that didn’t match your usual listening habits, but ended up liking it? How did you come accross it?
My taste has been mostly rock, metal and certain kinds of electroic music, but
Fallout introduced me to Billie Holiday
Youtube channel Inside the Score got me started on classical music, like actually listening and enjoying Beethoven, Sibelius and Dvorak and going even to a concert instead of just knowing the bits you can not avoid.
The jazz covers of Phoenix Wright music, especially The Dark Fragrance of Coffee, got me seeking for more of similar style.
The older I get, the less surprised I am by liking stuff that doesn’t fit the story of who I am. Because when you break it down, music is just movement of air, and how can different varieties of air speak to who you are.
So the music I like is just the music I like, and that’s fine with me.
