idk I have like 10 close friends not going to list them all

Running theme is punk though. Got another friend who has an encyclopaedic knowledge of hip-hop, and another who is really into boring as shit electronic music.

Then there's these two girls that I fucked who sort of absorbed a lot of the music I listen to. One loves post-punk stuff, and the other has gotten into the traditional music I enjoy, mostly West African and gypsy music.
>>
>>61027669
Tool
>>
Hip hop, RnB, and trance. At least one of my friends has similar taste so it's not too awful.
>>
Dream Theatre, Periphery, Between the Buried and me, General prog and shit. You know the type "muh technical skills" thank god im going to university next year hopefully i can meet people that dont believe guitar is the obky real instrument. (Though its an audio engineering degree so then again i dunno about that)

Are you implying that I can't have very deeply rooted bonds with 2 people?

old friend: classical (he listens to a lot but the only composer that I remember specifically talking with him about is Messiaen), jazz (same, only remember talking about Miles Davis and Robert Glasper), hip hop and beats (flylo, I dunno who else... most of what he listens to now)

ex boyfriend: super into DJing and its history, more into making music than listening but likes MBM, DJ Spooky, Madlib, Qbert, bubblegum bass, and a smattering of other stuff

closest friend: late romantic and impressionistic classical, funk, ambient

new friend: anime music mostly, some hip hop; he's not super into music

A good friend of mine listened to nothing but metal all through early high school ("people who listen to metal are better at math"), then decided he would listen exclusively to radio music and now, additionally to "party music" and radio stuff also enjoys ironically listening to shitty rap.
I'm not saying that I think that all hip hop is bad, but he purposefully picks rap that is bad and stupid and then listens to it ironically.
>>
>>61027669
he listens to strange ethnic music ive never heard of and reggae. my best friend was the highschool stoner. his brain has been fried since 8th grade

My one friend who likes music likes Rush and Scorpions. The worst part is that I introduced him to those bands a few years ago, and I've since moved onto post-punk and experimental stuff he still likes Rush. My other friends like vidya music (they listen to the sky rim soundtrack all the fucking time). To them, everything I listen to is "just noise"

One of them is an entry level mutant. Which is totally fine with me, still better taste than most people. His favorite band of all time is Death Grips and I talk about /mu/ with him irl

The other one is weird, his taste has been very regressive over the years. I met him when we were 14 when he was seriously into Tortoise, Clifford Brown, Pharoah Sanders a bunch of other pretty impressive music for a 14 year old but now he's 20 and listens almost exclusively to popular hip hop albums. Sort of sad tb h

"indie"

my room mate ( i gues we are friends) listens to the shittiest music (kevin gates, august alsina[?], other pop music on the radio) same as my gf listens to. it's whatever, i listen to it with them when i have to, don't like to be a dick about music to anyone really, and usually won't force anyone to listen to anything they don't enjoy. as long as they are happy about what they are listening to. whatever. my other best friend, and bandmate, pretty much listens to stoner/doom/drone/sludge like i do. he used to listen to scene music before we were friends and i make fun of him for that. my other best friend is black and he listens to rap that i'm not cool enough to understand, but it's a little better than the shit my gf and room mate listen to on the radio. it's pretty hard to find people that like jamming out to bong/EW/elder/DIS/other shit. i don't think it's inaccessible (other than bong probably) people just have different tastes and find the bwooooooooooooom hard to enjoy, but i really like it.
