Holy crap. None of what I regularly listen to is even on the poll. I'll grant some of it is more obscure, but you don't even have classical listed. Bad poll is bad. >_>

Mann... I gotta catch'em all sometimes!

If anyone knows any I forgot please tell me.

I purposely excluded: Holiday music, preschool/learning music, and nature sounds.

Latin is missing. I vote Latin to dance to.

 

[Father Heathen]

rock
gothic
ambient
electronic
industrial
psychedelic

 

[Quintessence]

I would add:

• Classical
• Soundtracks
• Instrumental
• New Age
• Folk/World/Traditional
• J-pop/K-pop
• Religious

There are hundreds of music genres, though. There are a bunch of international forms on here I haven't added; I put J-pop/K-pop up since it's relatively popular amongst the anime/manga craving teens and tweens of America.

Same here, although I'm not always into psychedelic.

I'll add:

Classical
Shoegazer
Symphonic Metal
Goth Metal
Celtic
Asian Instrumental
Varied Middle Eastern Sounds (for dancing)

I don't think Soundtracks, Instrumental, or religious is one type of genre though

How can you combine 80's and 90's music. 80's and 90's were two very distinct decades of music.

 

[Quintessence]

Genres are fluid. You can argue all day until you're blue in the face about whether a genre is "one type" or "many types."

*points above for example*

 

[dgirl1986]

I also like 40s and 50s, spiritual tunes, alternative, etc.

 

[apophenia]

Indian classical (raga) , algorithmic cyberjazz, old refridgerators at 3 am., magpies.

Agreed

I don't really understand music genre classifications, probably because I'm just not that into music. If it lacks words, I might be interested in it. If it has words in a foreign language so the words just become part of the tones, I might be interested in it. If it has words in English, odds are I'm not interested in it. >_>

No one has mentioned noise, experimental, or electro-acoustic stuff yet.

 

[Jainarayan]

Classic Rock, some hard rock
60's Pop
70's Pop
80-90's Pop

I have to add:
Indian (Hindustani, not familiar with Carnatic) and other ethnic.
Western classical (symphonic, etc.)
Some Jazz, R&B

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Electric would count under techno

 

[Infinitum]

Folk, Celtic, Classical, Progressive Rock.

No one has mentioned noise, experimental, or electro-acoustic stuff yet.

Actually, electronica has been mentioned and ecompasses some of the aforementioned.
