I’m not saying particular genres, we all have our less desired musical genres, I mean music in general.
When I was a child I was very confident to say that I hated music, all kinds, and my cousin used to say that was not possible.
Turns out he was right, and I only hated the teenage music my sister from the 90s used to listen to.
Secretly I enjoyed soundtracks and OSTs from several media, such as animes (digimon openings and battle themes for example) and some TV shows or even videogames.
Then my taste “evolved” and pretty much stayed at rock, heavy metal and alike.
So that little memory lane inspired me to ask about this.
You know nothing of modern music if that’s your opinion lol
You think people stopped composing music like that? No, other genres just became more popular. Your playlist is just the songs that survived the test of time. There’s artists making pretty much every type of music right now.
“Modern” isn’t a genre
Those artists are close to impossible to find. If you know a website where you can actually get some good songs out of your already existing playist please tell me.
SoundCloud and Bandcamp is where it’s at. Pretty much all I listen to. When I find an artist, I follow them and see what they’re listening to. I admittedly have been doing this for over a decade so I’ve got a curated feed that would be hard to replicate. Then there’s whole artist “crews” like Vulfpek who have solo projects and collaborate with a million other similar artists.
People often think of listening to music as a secondary activity but really it’s a hobby. There’s just… So much music out there. Once you start to narrow down the genres you really like, you get a better understanding of what you look for.
Another tip when you find a new release you really like…Google em. There’s still a ton of music blogs and if you find one talking about someone you like, you’ll likely find even more. It’s a compounding effect, too
Give me a couple of your favorite artists/songs and tell me specifically what you like about them and I’ll see if I can get you started. Feel free to tell me some aspects you *don’t" like in music, too
