Man, I love music. I feel if I didn't take my route in life as a visual designer, I think a music composer would be my second path.
When I was little I used to always thought the trombone was the coolest instrument ever, and eventually in the 5th grade, I managed to pick one up and eventually joined the marching Band in the 6th grade and continued throughout college.
It's extremely odd to a lot of people when I don't have headphones on or not tapping my pen on a table to some random beat.
As for my musical taste, well is a brow raiser. I like music that has odd beats, or a collection of experimentation. Normally bands that like to take chances with experimentation, in some ways makes them Avant Garde [Rather 'hipster' thing to say, but its lack of a better term] Don't get me wrong I will at times listen to some overplay popular mainstream tracks at times, nothing wrong with something that clicks to you. But most of the time Im just doing a lot of self discover by searching through Youtube or music Youtube channels, I even co-run a Youtube Channel called Holy Chill.
Most Popular Genres

Emotional Rant
I hate the fact that people associate ALL of hip hop with violent, sexist, materialistic, connotations. Not ALL hip hop is consisted of these associated stereotypes that social media precises them to be. You're listening to the wrong artist that give the genre its notorious reputation. Some Hip Hop artist rap about struggles EVERYONE shares, wanting to achieve, even life lessons. Unfortunately until people realize this, that is how its going to be. So yes, I will listen to Common, Nujabes, OutKast, Nieve, Soulfree, Gangstarr, Watsky, Guru
Sorry about that rant there, I'm rather passionate about that Genre and it breaks my heart people would think that way about it because a lot of Wonderful artist get overlook because of their music is labeled in that title, It's irritating.
Least Favorite Genres
The most common would probably be Dubstep and ANY genre that involves the word METAL I keep away from*Its just too intense for my mellow, slow down personality*
