To me, one of my friends started playing techno and drum n bass a lot and I got hooked. I have been listening to techno and it's derivatives for a while and LOVE it.

As long as I can remember there was music around me. I got my rock and roll heart at age 13.At the time there were rock songs on the radio And MTV just started . Back then they played music videos . Only music videos.

one of my classmates before introduced me to classic rock and never came back. But i enjoy some of the other genre like techno but not rap. one of my favorite techno musicians is daft punk.

It's really interesting because I think I've kind of introduced myself to all of the genres that I'm into. I like a little bit of everything. It just depends on the artist for me. And as I got older I would just surf the web looking for more and more music finding more and more stuff that I liked as time went on. It's kind of a thing that just depends on the mood I'm in for what I listen to/like more at a given time.

Most of the music I listened to when I was younger, was introduced to me by my parents. This is because I would simply just listen to what they listened to, not knowing as much about music as I do now. Luckily, my parents were into a lot of 70's and 80's rock as well as some pop. As I got older and started exploring different music, my tastes eventually evolved into blues, classic rock, and metal. I also think that being a guitarist helped guide me musically.

When I was younger, I really love pop and ballads,but when my brother became the drummer of an indie pop band, I was kind of hook, especially those Japanese and Indonesian Indie pop bands, I still like pop but I'm more like and indie pop lover now.
