Last three years I'm mostly into freestyle/experimental genres and styles of electronic music, namely:
• [Experimental]
industrial — my favourite artists here are Throbbing Gristle, Nurse With Wound, Coil, Current 93, Einstürzende Neubauten, early Skinny Puppy and so on;
•
IDM — my favs are Autechre/Gescom, Boards of Canada, Gridlock, Aphex Twin and µ-Ziq; Toytronic is a promising lable to try too;
•
Progressive Rock — mainly Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream of the 80's; I want to investigate this genre further this year, aiming at such artists as Popol Vuh, King Crimson and Can;
•
Progressive (or maybe
Classic?)
electronics — I mean artists like Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, Pete Namlook, Klaus Schulze and early Tangerine Dream; I just don't know how else to call them;
•
EBM/
Electro-industrial/
Futurepop — sometimes I feel an urge to listen to the more beat-oriented stuff; the names are Front Line Assembly, In Strict Confidence, Assemblage 23 and so on;
•
Industrial Metal — mainly Nine Inch Nails and KMFDM;
•
Tracked music,
Game and
Demoscene soundtracks — hehe, this is the essential part! :D
OC Remixes and
Zophar's collection of console game music are nice places to go;
As for the rest, I'm pretty omnivorous in terms of my music taste, and sometimes listen to different sub-genres of Noise, Alternative, Classic Rock, [Dark/Psy/Classic] Ambient, Glitch, Big Beat, Synth-pop/Darksynth, Dub, Modern Classic, Musique Concrete, even some kinds of Jazz (I don't like it very much though) and much much more.
What I really don't like is the intention to sacrifice one's individuality and personal style in favour of being more mainstream, to make more money. Like Peter Christopherson said, when a musician loses the belief in what he does, he becomes a product.
