| Enjoy these
Styles and musical qualities: Folk, Improvisational, Symphonic, Traditional, New Age |
| Other styles/genres/qualities of music that I like not listed above: Melody, Melody, Melody! A good hook or chord progression is the most essential feature in a song for me. I am somewhat biased in my liking for female vocalists, especially those in a prog environment. A fair amount of the Neo-prog these days I find quite likable. Certainly not all of it however. |
| Favorite or well-respected bands/artists Yes, Renaissance, Genesis, Magenta, Glass Hammer, Echolyn, Michael Hedges, Par Lindh Project, Minimum Vital, Jean-Luc Ponty, Sandrose, Mr. Sirius, Contraction, Aries, Bacamarte, Kotebel |
| Dislike these
Styles and musical qualities: Difficult, Humor, Noise/Industrial/Urban, RIO, Zeuhl, Theatrical |
| Musical styles or qualities that I do not like: Qualities: Cookie Monster vocals, Endless shredding without regard for melody or compositional structure. Lyrical content thats overly depressing or violent. Narration and storytelling in a spoken work sense. Styles / Genres: Death, Doom, and Black Metal, Disco, Punk, Country, Hip Hop, Reggae, Funk, Thrash |
| Occupation(s): |
| Other musical activities: Ex-Bass and Guitar player. |
| Hobbies / obsessions: Reading Fantasy and some Science Fiction. Authors such as Steven Erikson, Terry Goodkind, Guy Gavriel Kay, Anne McCaffrey, Patricia McKillip, Dan Simmons, Mary Stewart, & Tad Williams. I am also a big Star Wars fan. Always trying to upgrade stereo gear. Currently running a Rega Apollo cd player, Adcom passive pre-amp, Classe CA-100 power amp, and speakers of my own design using Dynaudio and Audio Concepts drivers. |
