I feel like my music taste is condemning me to a life of solitude. Music taste is the first thing I look for in guys but a guy with good music taste is so hard to come by for no fucking reason. I’ll settle for deftones and arctic monkeys but really I wanna talk about random obscure bands most people haven’t heard of. I know this sounds pick me and snobby but legitimately how I build connections is through music. All of my friends have great music taste and they all have a different music taste. So it’s not like I’m picky but holy shit if one more guy hits me up at the club and says his favourite artist is drake I’m gonna lose my mind. Good music I do appreciate drake but give me more than that pleeeease. Where can I find people with good music taste too? I live in a small(ish) town with not much going on do I just spend my days at the record store or what? Literally the only standard I have for guys is that they have a well rounded music taste but somehow that one thing has still become my downfall.
post good music
The point isn’t that there is specifically “good music” just that I listen to a lot of music and 90 percent of the guys in my town either purely listen to country or purely listen to rap. I like both of those genres because there’s good music in every genre but if that’s the only music you know I’m gonna get bored real quick.
Post. Good. Music.
Fine I’ll collect my favourite song from as many genres as possible give me a second
>if that’s the only music you know I’m gonna get bored real quick.
No, we don’t. Honestly you sound like a hyper-judgemental bitch for judging a man’s *entire* relationship-worthiness based on his one passive hobby that changes with time. Everybody has some preference sure but that’s usually a blend of physique, personality, and common interests. Placing everything this exclusively on music preference is weird.
But hey, keep this attitude up and maybe you’ll find the male unicorn you’re searching for in your 50s
How does everyone keep missing the point. I’m not looking for one specific music taste I’m looking for a broad music taste. Yes it changes with time but I don’t care what someone’s music taste looks like just that it’s composed of more than one or two genres. Everyone has unique taste in music and I love that I’m not looking for someone who listens to every band I listen to because that would be boring too. The best music I find is recommended by other people BECAUSE of our differing music taste.
You clearly stated that in your earlier post so I know that.
It also does not detest or deter any of what I said, so not sure why you brought that up.
you have shit taste, dumb bitch. listen to classical music, much better than your obscure crap
I do lmfao. I’m an ex ballet dancer and still listen to classical when I do improv. I told you I listen to a lot of fucking music.
date a trained musician or someone who took a lot of music theory classes. they are unable to enjoy mainstream music
Then either date one of your friends or stop putting people in boxes by the music they listen to. It sounds snobby and obnoxious because it is.
If you can’t find any guy who’s favorite artist isn’t Drake, then that is 100% on you for likely looking in the same general crowd, or type of guys, and you need to broaden your horizon of where you’re looking.
Yes I’m putting people in boxes but everyone does that with their preferences. People have their taste in partners physically or mentally and my taste is well rounded music taste. Music is my favourite thing ever and if someone confines themselves to one genre that’s just not my taste in men because I can’t talk about the thing I love more than anything with them. And I swear it’s not me it’s my town. I live in a town of like 80,000 kinda in the middle of nowhere somewhere between country boys up north and Toronto mans down south. Music taste here is cursed.
>town
>80,000
>middle of nowhere
Are you schizo or what?
I get it. I shouldn’t be your only standard because that’s fucking ridiculous, but if you care deeply about music it’s definitely important that you date somebody with a similar passion or curiosity, even if your tastes don’t match up completely (and it’s better if they don’t, so you have something to share with one another). I used to not care because I also struggled meeting people with the same interests and just dated people who listened to mainstream shit, but eventually the relationships reached a point where I felt I’m couldn’t share myself fully.
The answer is simply to move to a major city, especially one with a lot of universities. I grew up in the suburbs in a few different states but spent 25 years not knowing anybody like myself, but moving and going to concerts, bookshops, record stores, and museums I met people immediately
Alternatively, you could just date me
>Literally the only standard I have for guys is that they have a well-rounded music taste but somehow that one thing has still become my downfall
Are you genuinely underage? You should be a little more discriminatory with what kind of person you would let into your life than something so superficial. You are setting yourself up to fail because having a boyfriend is more complex than you agreeing with his broad music tastes and sharing songs together and blabbing on about a new band you found.
>I shouldn’t be your only standard because that’s fucking ridiculous, but if you care deeply about music it’s definitely important that you date somebody with a similar passion or curiosity
This anon is fair
>The guy you're looking for will manipulate the shit out of you and you won't be able to heal for years
This anon is also fair. Very easy to fall for the dreamy arty boy with the guitar (or maybe spotify playlist is sufficient these days) because your criterion is inherently childish and is easily preyed upon
The guy you're looking for will manipulate the shit out of you and you won't be able to heal for years. I'm not saying steer clear from them, just don't idolize them. They're just as garbage as drake npcs.
>t. small town girl who's dated a handful of guys with "good music taste"
This is a female version of that stupid post we got the other day, right?
lmao no masculine man will listen to anything other than rap/metal
Real. Even termites eat wood faster when metal is playing. 99% of all life on earth disagree with her shit taste.
You are not a human. You are an NPC.
i bet you haven't even listened to chief keef's entire discography you stupid bitch you listen to tyler the creator and think you're sooo unique and quirky
>listening to another man sing to you
Gaymaxxed and gaypilled
I only listen to japanese idols
My favorite artists is Rush good or bad music taste? I mostly listen to 80s rock/metal, classical, and vidya music from games I like. Definitely better than the guys you're talking about but is that good enough?
>Music taste is the first thing I look for in guys
I hate women so much
I am a guy who makes music and listen to a bunch of different styles. I have no problem meeting girls with interesting music taste but the real problem is that they usually are very open with their sexuality so I never consider dating them
Something about music makes people leftists
I have a similar problem with music tastes, I dont know how to begin introducing people into the music I like, it's not like it's obscure, just for spic standards IT IS obscure and not good. Talking about my music tastes at work when it's brought up is something that makes me a a little bit nervous.
For the record, I like City Pop, Synthwave, Electro Swing, Eurobeat, Chillstep, Piano music and recently caught a liking on japanese Jazztronica, but Im too versatile with music I can like a handful of songs, specially 70s-80s-90s pop and rock music and some K-Rock and J-Pop songs too, even some normie pop musics have caught my liking... problem is that I hate almost anything that is popular in my shithole, which are mostly reggaeton, bachata, rancheras, vallenato, trap and some weird ass pop craps, I grew numb to them due to constant exposure so I dont mind when people play them, but no one is the same when it comes to MY personal tastes, so it's something I really dont like talking about with the normies.

What you should do is go to the bands you like instagram page and dm the dudes who recently liked their posts. press the likes button and scroll to find the chads you want
Just date a musician or something

I listen to all them except The Dead C. God, they are a horrible fucking band and I cant stand the vocals and their garage sound. Go jump off a cliff headfirst. They suck.
>falling for an ancient LULZ pasta
I assumed it was, but that was the first name that caught my eye that I hate
>Pierre Boulez
Does anyone unironically listen to this garbage? I like some of his Mahler recordings but his compositions are just shitposts
>Zappa
>Beefheart
>Residents
Will you marry me?
It's because you have earworms.
My music taste goes everywhere and I mainly like good, interesting, sometimes weird shit, but it’s hard to describe my taste, and because of that I don’t want potential partners to think I’m a weird dude for listening to both female French folk/western-pop Adé and MF DOOM in the same day.
Post a chart. Then I shall decide if you're as patrician as me so we can get married.
You need to expand your personality beyond just being the self proclaimed connoisseur of music - it's making you sound conceited and one dimensional
>artic monkeys
>good
no. You sound fucking pretentious. However, instead of trying to find your Cinderella's foot, why don't you show your music to them, and see if they like it. You want them to know a band that "most people haven't heard of", he probably hasn't heard of them either. If you want to find people with good music taste, go to concerts, hangout at your local record shop, start a music club. I can just tell you browse LULZ.
BPD delusional bitch. Music isn't even important.
