Geekoid

Hello there.
I'm a 19 year old guy from Canada, and my taste in music is becoming increasingly diversified. Music recommendation services are only good to me for so long; I suppose forums provide a more nuanced alternative, and broader perspectives.

When it comes to music, I definitely have discerning taste in a broad variety of genres. I'm open minded with picky taste in music- if that makes a shred of sense. You could say I'm primarily a pop fan, and I like a lot of styles of music that people generally consider kitschy, lame, whatever. I take it in stride.

Here's the basic outline of what I'm into (in no particular order):
*Generally, if it's super angry or blaringly loud/ abrasive, I probably won't like it. Sorry.

EASY LISTENING:
"New Age" like Enya, Origa, Loreena McKennitt
Lounge of all sorts; Piero Umiliani, Combustible Edison, legit Elevator Music...

ADULT ALTERNATIVE:
90's "Ectophilia" type music- Alanis Morissette, Sarah McLachlan, The Cranberries, Sheryl Crow etc.

ELECTRONIC:
Various forms of Chillout
Early Electronic (Moogs, Theremins etc.)
"hauntology"/ Ghost Box Records: i.e. The Advisory Circle, Belbury Poly...
Italo Disco/ Hi-NRG/ Europop and its recent revival.
Some Electro-Industrial
Nu-Jazz
House/ Acid Jazz
The divas: Bjork & Roisin Murphy
Game soundtracks, including MIDI and 8-Bit/Chiptune.

JAZZ/ BLUES
Vocal Jazz, Bossa Nova, various styles of Latin Jazz, Space Age, Jazz Funk, Jazz Fusion...

POP/ROCK:
Art Rock (like Griffin, Be Bop Deluxe), New Wave (Pop/New Romantic), "Sophisti-Pop," various Urban styles (Neo-Soul, Pop/R&B, Pop/Hip-Hop), Doo-Wop, Disco, Dance Pop, Noise Pop, Dream Pop, "Indie Pop", Sunshine Pop, "Surf Music", AM Pop, Chamber Pop, Folk Pop/ Rock, Pop Punk...

TRADITIONAL:

Hopefully that gives you a general profile of me as a music explorer .
