at the moment you could probably say im only trance in that i only buy and pay much attention to trance. i generally like or can at least listen to any music really, i have some heavy metal albums like old metallica, pantera and a couple of iron maiden cds, but i dont really listen to it much anymore. i could just about listen to anything.

All good music, That includes Hip Hop, Rock, Classics, disco, etc...
ow - and SKA!!!
I love and listen to virtually all types of electronic music - primarily progressive, but I've been getting into the breaks and techno as well (last CD I bought was the new Bedrock Breaks album). I used to like house a bit as well, but there is just so much crap house out there at the moment that it just didn't really seem worth it (Robbie Rivera, Sandy Rivera/KOT, Harry 'Choo Choo' Romero and Olav Basoski respectfully excluded).
Apart from electronic music (which is 95% of my listening schedule) I only ever really listen to classical music. In fact, the only CDs I can remember buying over the past couple of years that weren't electronic or classical was Pink Floyd - Echoes and, of course, Avril Lavigne (unless you want to classify Massive Attack as non-electronic stuff?). It's not that I don't like other forms of music (with the exception of r'n'b/commercial hip-hop.... seems like I'm not alone) it's just that I don't like it enough to listen to it.... if you get my drift.
Meh.
i've gone thru my share of genres thru the years. in the early teens, it was hiphop n rnb - snoop, tupac, canibus, n espesh "the pharcyde", who's albums i occassionally still pop on every now and then. it's due to those years that, while everybody condemns eminem, i still appreciate n praise him for his lyrical ingenuity. quote from a friend's poetry lecturer that he is the "only one poet this day in age having a master of feminine rhyme, ear rhyme, triple rhyme, and quadruple rhyme". in the late teens, i started leaning towards rock with the likes of silverchair, matchbox 20, chilli peppers, lenny kravitz. didnt disregard the oldies either with the eagles, jimmy hendrix. the acoustic guitarist sound i especially adored i.e. david gray, extreme - more than words etc.
now, though i listen mainly to electronica, i can still pop on some rnb, hiphop, rock or oldies depending on the mood. even pop, if i'm feeling in the mindless "catchy tune" kinda mood. only music i can't stand r heavy metal n country. i'm lookin forward to next week tho, catching up on my trance and exploring further into house, beats and breaks as i commute to n fro from uni!
dnb, breaks, and quite a bit of 80s music, i don't know what is with that though ...
Classical music can be beautiful, some opera, drum n' bass, psytrance, love songs, I like anything really on the condition that is has good melodies or is pleasing aurally.
yeh i realy like hard rock country pop.
Happy Hardcore~!!~@~!!
I blieve it is a better alternative to hard trance. Because it is harder than trance but still just as uplifting. I don't find actual 'hard trance' uplifting/euphoric enough it can be to dark at times.
Anyway I'm totally into Happy Hard at the moment!
Besides trance, I listen to some Turkish Rock and Pop and I love lots of stuff from the early to mid 90s... But even growing up, I always had a thing for electronic/trance music...
Besides Trance:
1. Lamb
2. Anything by Sarah McLachlan (she is a goddess)
3. Tori Amos
4. Fiona Apple
5. Delerium
6. Dead Can Dance
7. More Sarah Mclachlan...
and lastly whatever Dave Seaman can spin I'll listen to it 
Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Metallica, Radiohead, Guns N Roses!
if anyone has Tiestos Dutch Dimension dated 31-03-2001 ... listen in at around the 69:30 mark, tiesto fuzes both my favourite sounds mixing in Radioheads - Street Spirit
awesome tune!
Soz, I haven't read thru the entire thread but....
I also like a bit of funky and tribal house (in doses), breaks is cool and also a lil hard house. And whatever you can define Paul Van Dyk, I LOVE THAT! His style is so varied it's awesome
But I must say that after Armins set @ TT, Trance just does it for me.
Still loving most forms of dance music.
Other than trance , my second love is house in most of its forms, mainly funky,deep,dark and dirty house.
Also have respect for the prodigy, and recently John Maher , that dude has a unique sound.
I'm into trance, tech-trance, progressive trance, trancy breaks (think infusion - legacy), a very small dose of hard trance...
Get the picture?
after listening to some at uni i think im gonna get a couple more rage against the machine albums ive had 'renegades' for a while, some good shit, i want more!
Yer!!! RATM rule! 
bands atm; foo fighters, queens of the stone age, the datsuns, the d4, zwan
all good stuff!!
anyone else hear the rumour that Metalica is headlining BDO '04?
On the chill / lounge scene; Telepopmusik are also cool
And ive been listening to a hell of a lot of acid jazz atm

Love the trance - but nice to balance out with some rnb, sexy house, and I love my rap *BONE THUGZ* and 2pac - almost as much as trance. I love any music that makes u feel good - Chilli Peppers,Fatboy, Artful Dodger. what is life without music?
Main love is ofcourse trance, but i also mix Drum & Bass, Breaks and a little bit of house.
I was a massive breaks fan in 2000/2001 and after LTJs set @ field day i thought i might try my hand at dnb, and you need a bit of house for house parties etc.
Still chuck on a few Korn/slipnot/kid rock cds now and again but not very often.
I only buy vinyl now. I dont think i have bought a cd in about a year or more.

I like a few other kinds of music too.
I love ambient music, especially deep atmospheric soundscapes. Good ambient releases are not easy to find in stores though. I especially like the works of artists like Robert Rich and Steve Roach. Do not confuse ambient music with "new age" music, or chill-out music. The works of the aforementioned artists are very deep and other-worldly, and sometimes strange, but always "fine" in the artistic sense - "fine arts" is what these guys produce.
Check out the Robert Rich site , and the Steve Roach site.
My love for Ambient music grew, albiet very slowly, when in 1994 a friend told me about a radio show on 2MBS 102.5 FM in Sydney, called "Ultimathule" every Thursday night from 10pm to 1am. I didn't understand it at first, it was so different to anything I had ever heard. But as time went by I started to get the feel for the hypnotising and atmospheric sounds. I'd lie in bed in darkness and listen. The sounds made me feel like I was in a dream state, or far out in deep space, or comatose, or on another planet. Often I would be in a half-sleep state or lucid-dreaming state, and the sounds would nicely accompany these states of mind, and then I would often drift off into full sleep.
As an aside, there was a show called "Our world through serotonin" that came straight after Ultimathule at 1:00am, and the show is still going on 2MBS 102.5 FM on Thursday nights. The stuff they play is totally whacko, especially when you're lying in bed in darkness. Lots of archaic sound samples and obscure music and spoken word are tossed together like salad... it's very strange stuff, yet intriguing. Have a listen if you are still awake at 1:00am on a Thursday.
Anyway, back to ambient music - Brian Eno was the pioneer with some of his old works like "Music for airports" and "On land". I have his album "Music for the NASA space mission". Other ambient music albums I have are Robert Rich - Trances/Drones, Global communication - 7614, and Woob - Em:t 1194. I highly recommend these. Another I'd recommend is Steve roach - On this planet. After listening to it, you wonder what planet he is actually portraying. Check out a review here.
Okay that's probably enough talk on ambient music for now. I also like chill-out, like the Cafe Del Mar series, and Real Ibiza series. Jose Padilla was the person who compiled the first 6 Cafe Del Mar compilations. I love his album "Souvenir", and "Navigator" is okay too.
I also like Pink Floyd, their old and new stuff. I bought "Meddle" the one which has the 20 minute track "Echoes" - that track is a beautiful mental journey. Their P.U.L.S.E. concert is brilliant. I wish it was available on DVD.
I've liked U2's old stuff, like Joshua tree.
I also used to like metal - heavy metal, black metal and doom metal. e.g. artists like Metallica, Cradle of filth (I have their album "The principle of evil made flesh"), and My dying bride (I have their album "The angel and the dark river"). I remember listening to the metal radio shows on triple R on Monday nights when I was in year 11 some years ago.
The music I love most is trance, and anything that is trancy, whether it be progressive trance or trancecore. Only a little hard trance though.
like you guys trance is my passion but i also like heaps of diff stuff.
I came into electronica via industrial metal like ministry and i still listen to my old metal cds it's just i don't buy any news ones.
