Music Banter - View Single Post - how do YOU go about appreciating difficult music?

I've grown accustomed to what most people would call difficult music, but if I listen to something new in a bad mood or when I'm sick, it can be hard to get into. Billy Woods and LaMonte Young are good examples of this (Billy Woods isn't all that difficult, but I was new to hip hop at the time so it was for me). I usually try to return to it in those cases but often times I know on first listen.
