How Did Your Musical Path Develop?
I was just wondering, in regards to EDM, where did you start and where are you now with your musical tastes? Basically I'd just like a list of the genres you've cycled through in the order which you were a fan of and end the list with with genre you are in love with now...you can of course repeat genres as we go back and forth through the years...
Here is my list

Basically:
classical ---> techno ---> rays of diversity beaming out like light shining through a prism
