Secret Music Genre Fetish?

Emjaysmash · 07-25-2010, 11:43 AM

I enjoy a broad range of music, from Rock (in all of it's forms) to Blues to Classical, and sometimes Rap. My favorite band is Godsmack, a grunge/rock band, and I smoke listening most often to Blues (Muddy Waters especially). There is one genre of my favorite music genres that flies under the radar, however. I only have a couple CDs, and generally don't reveal that my secret music genre fetish is: Celtic music. I don't know why, but the fantastical sound/themes of Celtic music really float my boat.

So, do you have any secret music genres you don't normally tell anyone about or am I the only one?

I was a band kid in high school and college, and am still a drummer but I am really into drum corp/marching bands.....Oh, and I grew up in VA and love bluegrass....Ricky Scaggs baby....

I'm mainly a rock/metal guy (been listening to Metallica since '86). But from my martial arts days, I've come to enjoy some meditational/New Age stuff: Kitaro and Carlos Nakai are two of my favorites.

If I told you then it wouldn't really be a secret.

I got into more like jazzy/blues a while ago (Ella, Frank... etc...) and its one of those relaxing help me focus kinda tunes, but I listen to about anything!

Behind Godsmack, Metallica is my second favorite band of all time!

What other sorts of fetishes do you mean, Bao?

hotreds · 07-25-2010, 01:59 PM

I wouldn't call it a "secret music genre fetish" but I love good heavy metal bagpipe music a la Mackeel and early 7 Nations.

Besides Rock and Metal, I have long been an old 60's and 70's Motown fan...growing up in Detroit has that effect on some.

bobarian · 07-25-2010, 01:13 PM

Mostly a classic rock and blues listener. Occasionally I like some techno or old Motown.

I love Celtic music! I wouldn't be ashamed of that...just wait until you read my genre fetish

What?! Heavy metal bagpipe music? How the heck have I not heard about this...two of my favorite things!

(P.S. I can't see youtube videos at work so I don't know if it's seriously a metal bagpipe band or a joke...I can only hope it's real

)

As far as my secret genre fetish, I'm pretty open to a VERY wide variety of music (rock, metal, rap, pop, bagpipes, classical, Gregorian chant, new age, techno...whatever honestly), and I'm not really ashamed to admit any of it, but I guess you could say my shameful music genre is pop. Not all pop...just the really, really crappy pop. For instance, I have the Ke$ha album in my car and listen to it occasionally...it's catchy as hell! My previous shameful pop artist was Mika

I swear...you have to believe me that I have good taste in most music!
