I always carry a printed copy of this pic in case anyone asks. If the person is 2 or more levels below than me I don't even bother talking about music with them (I'm a Type-V, mind you)

If I'm in a good mood I might say: "Well all sorts of things" and list whatever genres or artists first come to my mind.

If I'm in a bad mood I might say: "A bunch of shit no one has ever heard of."
>>
>>60764231
Post some YouTube links to that Type V music or
you're a faggot.

I've heard all of those pieces.

"I listen to Alt."

However that's misinterpreted often because in my language the same sound means "Everything" so I don't care.
>>
I usually just say what I listen to in my car, which is generally some form of rock or another. Nobody really digs deeper though because apparently rock is out of fashion these days and people just want to talk about a$ap rocky or tame impala
>>
"Only alva noto and eccojams"

just shout RRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Letting a graph made my a tripfag define your musical tastes

You are actually just as bad as someone who lets fandango or p4k jurisdict their musical tastes/interests.

new complexity is pretty cool, but itd be pretty autistic to play around people
>>
I just tell people I really like Nirvana and Modest Mouse

I am autistic enough however, to specify that I like older modest mouse rather than their newer stuff. I also tell people my favorite nirvana album is bleach. Lol

"Me? Pretty much anything and everything. Almost every genre I've heard, I've heard a song I like in it. What about you?"

Everything except zouk music,

"Uhhhh, mainly dream pop, shoegaze, maybe a bit of noise rock."

>tfw I usually just get blank stares
I actually did end up showing a normie gril some Wild Nothing (I think it was either The Blue Dress or Midnight Song) and they actually liked it.
>>
"I'm into a lot of different things. Most of my music is Pop, Rock and Electronic though. I'm currently listening to _____."

Just don't use giant over arching genres and use terms that most people know so you don't look like a spurg.
>>
>>60767906
Unless I know it's somebody who's into music which is when I'm willing to use more specific terms. Because if you tell people you like Noise Rock, EAI or Psychedelic Pop they will look at you odd.
>>

>>60764231
By turntable music are you referring to turntablism, or something I've never heard of?
