      Hi Again. :wave:

      I would like to know eveyone’s favourite genres of music.

      Mine are:

      British Invasion/Merseybeat
      Psychedelic Rock from the 60’s
      60’s and 70’s Funk and Soul Music
      Jazz (from late 50’s onwards)
      Disco
      Hip-Hop/Rap (from 70’s up untill mid 1990’s. I dislike a lot of modern mainstream rap)
      Modern Soul/Neo-Soul/Nu-Soul
      Acid Jazz/Nu-Jazz
      Trip-Hop
      Madchester
      Brit-Pop
      House (All Kinds)
      Breakbeat (All Kinds)
      Drum and Bass (Mostly older stuff)
      Electronica
      Indie Rock
      Turntablism/Cut and Paste
      Foreign Music (i.e. Latin, Bollywood, Arabian etc)
      Movie Soundtracks
      Comedy

      I think that’s about it. Pretty Eclectic!

        Rory, nice list!

        My particular faves (not particularily by genre) are:

        Northern Soul
        Garage Rock / Pysch – 60’s & 70’s – Nuggets and Pebbles compilations are a good place to start with this.
        Motown Soul
        Proper 60’s & 70’s Funk
        Breaks & Beats (esp cos they usually incorporate some of the former genres)
        Big Beat (obviously)
        Early Rolling Stones
        Also check out Andrew Oldham Orchestra ‘The Rolling Stones Songbook’ as it is utter class!
        Al Green – genius voice.
        Nice daisy age style Hip Hop (not the modern rubbish)
        De La Soul etc etc
        Justin Warfields ‘My Field Trip To Planet Nine’ is an utter classic
        Good soild electronic music, Fatboys, Chemicals, Crystal Methods and so on
        (no cheesey hand-bag in my house… :lol: )
        Bombay The Hard Way projects by DJ Shadow and Dan The Automator
        Some of that Italian Disco House stuff DJ Hell played in his Hellboyz mix.
        The Fabric Live mix by James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem).
        Tiga’s K!7 mix – super smooth.
        James Lavelle’s GU #023 Barcelona dj set (S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G)
        Wax Tailor / moby / Mexican Institute Of Sound / Kidda – all cut n paste geniuses in my opinion (Moby – Play).

        oh and the list could go on…. my feeling is if it makes you tap your feet and feel, then it must be good…

        cool topic Rory :good:

            for me it’s hard to made a correct answer…
            i can’t resume.. probably because i’m listening many genres..
            its depends of my feelings.
            i can listen reggae and psy trance in the same day…and the other day it will be old rock.. grunge so.. that’s why i’m litlle ashamed, its reflect very well my personnality :mrgreen:

            the thing that i’m sure , i can’t listen classical music and ‘Poetry Slam’… :D
