When was the last time you found piece that didn’t match your usual listening habits, but ended up liking it? How did you come accross it?
My taste has been mostly rock, metal and certain kinds of electroic music, but
Fallout introduced me to Billie Holiday
Youtube channel Inside the Score got me started on classical music, like actually listening and enjoying Beethoven, Sibelius and Dvorak and going even to a concert instead of just knowing the bits you can not avoid.
The jazz covers of Phoenix Wright music, especially The Dark Fragrance of Coffee, got me seeking for more of similar style.
Not a single piece, but I was pleasantly surprised by Ethel Cain’s album Preacher’s Daughter. Definitely not the sort of music I usually listen to, so I didn’t expect that much despite what I’d heard about it, but I actually ended up quite liking a fair few of the songs (although definitely not all of them).
