    Tbh, I tend to search for at least a song to like of every genre I'm introduced to, but if I were to say which genres I'm most invested in I'd say rock and its subgenera. I grew up listening to my father's records, which were mostly rock, and started really getting into music when a friend gifted me Guitar Hero Aerosmith on my 10th birthday and eventually learned to play the drums because of how much I liked rock.

    The main reason I actively try to enjoy a little of every genre is because I find playing music to be very therapeutic and learning to play new and different things feels somewhat like learning new things about myself!

    Also, I love Nirvana's take on this song!

    Yeah, I love listening to a bit of everything too!

    Rock isn't very prevalent in Korea I'm afraid... Japan is far better for that!

    Finding k-pop songs to suit your own tastes is never easy, because so much of the popular stuff sounds pretty similar right now. You need to go digging!

    What I tend to do is listen to radio stations from around the world online, and make a note of any song I like. I've discovered quite a few artists I like this way!

    I always try to attach a video to my posts for the same reason, it's super simple to just click play and hear the song, and some people might even like it :)

    Right now:

    The Easybeats - Friday on my Mind

    I love J-rock! To me it really stands out as a genre due to how unique most songs are, while still keeping little things that really identify them as Japanese!

    Oh, that's a great idea! Do you have any stations to recommend?

    I tend to flip between a few, but my personal favourites for kpop are the Aewen Radio stations, because they play a mix of everything, and they aren't averse to playing older songs, as well as the newer stuff :)

    Quick tip - I Shazam any song I like while it's playing, so I don't need to bother logging it manually 😉


    Right now I'm listening to:

    J-Min - Waiting for You

    Poster Girl - Album by Zara Larsson

    Zara's my favorite artist, so this one's been highly anticipated for me and it didn't disappoint! Favorite song is either I Need Love or Need Someone...
