Well when I was young, all my Dad listened to was The Beatles and some golden oldie radio station. So I was exposed to all different sorts of classic rock stuff. I do remember hating every minute though. I can however appreciate some Beatles music now!
My Mum loves Celine Dion and all those ladies with real loud voices lol.
Will I make my children listen to EDM? Chances are, yes. I pretty much only like EDM and not much else. I can't see that changing for a lonnnnng time too - I love the :P I won't care if they don't listen to it, just as long as they listen to quality in whatever genre they like. I won't stand for cheesy music tastes! |

This begs an interesting question: do you think dance music has gone as far as it can it terms of being "hard"/"full on" (i.e gabber), and "strange"/avant garde (i.e IDM)?
I agree with you, my parents would never listen to half the stuff I do, simply because it's too weird and full-on for them.
However, if our current generation has already been exposed to and enjoyed stuff like psy-trance, gabber or IDM, will there be much music our children listen to that is too "out there" for us, or will we be well accustomed to it?
I'd make a comparison to movies and television with violence. 50 years ago, movies were relatively tame, but these days kids are desensitised to violence and it's no longer shocking.
I believe the past 20 years of dance music are somewhat similar, with violent themes coming into play, though our generation has become somewhat desensitised to it compared to our parents. |

When I was 15-16 we spent our whole time listening to punk and metal.
Groups like Pennywise, Millencolin, Fear Factory, Opeth and Korn.

Death Metal is pretty intense, and it's been around for a long while.
As for me, I'll be listening to whatever I am listening to at that point, I won't force my hypothetical children to listen to it too.
I will, as Melly said, try and steer them away from all the gangsta bull. |

I still enjoying ripping out Full Metal Contact by F.F. every now and then. It's like 280 BPM and has the most insane drumming ever. :gsmile:
In fact, I remember hearing a while back that Fear Factory held the BPM speed record for rock bands. |

Dammit, I left my Digimortal album to my brother when I moved out. I should go and get it back. Interestingly enough Dino Cazares (FF's former guitarist) played guitar on Junkie XL's first album. |
