I like pop, rock, classical and folk.

I also think it's so conveniant for pop-haters to automatically place all the pop they like into "rock" or another genre where it also applies.

You know, radiohead is a pop group, but they go into "rock" instead cause' they're cool, that sort of thing.

I like hip hop over pop by a landslide!

Most current day Hip Hop isn't that good to me, but I love listening to 90s to about mid 2000s hip hop.

That said, there's no unified "aspie music genre". That would be silly.

AWESOME!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! sounds a bit NERDCORE!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !

p.s. i love rap, pop, nerdcore, hip-hop (taking a hippity-hoppity dance class oh yeahhhhh)

Thanks:) I've actually done some proper nerdcore, I'd call this particular track more of a throwback to the underground backpacker punchlines-and-rhyme-wankery-based rap of the late 90s and early 00s than nerdcore. Go look for "Off the Grid" on the same channel for some proper nerdcore.

Not my new stuff. I could never get anyone to buy any of my old stuff on Soundclick, so I'm hoping to find a site with more listener activity.

Reverbnation is pretty hopping and has excellent promotional tools, opportunities and networking, but if you want to sell your music you have to list it on iTunes or elsewhere and link to it on the site. you can have people download for free if you want to give your tunes away also. also, it is integrated with myspace and Facebook.

The problem with iTunes is they don't let you sign up as an independent artist. You have to go via some other service that in turn is signed up to iTunes as a distributor or something, and I don't know which ones are good or how that works or what rights I have to sign away or how much money it might cost. I should look into that. And Reverbnation, thanks for that tip.

Sean Paul is hardly reggae, and doesn't even remotely resemble ska. If anything he's dancehall/ragga/pop.


See, this is why I have Social Phobia.

Because you're afraid of people sharing trivial observations about music genres with you? I'm afraid I don't understand how these things connect. Did I come off as rude or something? If so, I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean to at all, I was just pointing out a minor factual error in what I thought was a helpful manner.

Nothing to do with you, nothing to do with music. It's because things seem a certain way to me, I get evidence that it's that way by hearing other people's opinions on it, then when I take that as a fact and express myself in a group, what I said is always wrong, and then I feel stupid. So that is why I don't talk much.

I thought these songs had a ska/reggae background:-

If by "pop" you mean J-Pop or K-Pop, then yeah, I like pop.

There is definitely a bit of reggae in those tracks, you're right. I have not heard those tracks before. I stand corrected with regards to these examples being reggae. Not ska, though. Ska is kind of like reggae at double speed...sort of. Where reggae usually has two accentations per measure (such as heard, for example, indeed in the tracks you linked), ska tends to have four, and a more upbeat feel.

No need to feel stupid, sir. There's nothing stupid about being in a position of learning new things. I just learned that Sean Paul has done some pop reggae, for example, having only heard him do pop dancehall/ragga before, which most of his stuff seems to be. And even that is very commonly misidentified as reggae by a lot of people. It's not uncommon to identify all Jamaican music styles as reggae by default, since a lot of it is related. Roots reggae, pop reggae, rocksteady, dub and ragga are all derived from ska. It's kind of like how people commonly refer to apes as monkeys, even though they're different subcategories of primate. Related things often get mixed up, and there's no shame or stupidity in it. Hell, I can't count how many times singers have been misidentified as rappers by media just because of how they dress.

I agree about being in in a position to learn new things. "Sir"? Did you read Joe90's sig?
