Hey everyone! Today I was thinking about starting an offtopic weekly discussion where we talk about random things besides the forum and MakeCode. This weekā€™s topic is: **What kind of music do you like, whoā€™s your favorite performer or artist šŸŽµ ?** Feel free to share your answers and discuss music tastes, you could even link a playlist to demonstrate a point. Personally, I love alt metal and rock music, itā€™s just so powerful! Iā€™m open to listening to any other genres. Except K-POP. Iā€™ll never listen to K-POP šŸ˜” ---

My music taste is best described by 2 catagories: - The old alternative rock my dad loved and showed me which made me love it - The most absolutely garbage popular pop music from the 2000ā€™s and 2010ā€™s because who doesnā€™t love nostalgia? My favorite song would be [Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J2QdDbelmY&pp=ygURc2V2ZW4gbmF0aW9uIGFybXk%3D)! Its one of my dadā€™s favorites and my first ā€˜realā€™ song I played on my drum set : D ---

Your style is really similar to mine! I love metal and rock like I said already ([Linkin Park](https://open.spotify.com/artist/6XyY86QOPPrYVGvF9ch6wz) is my absolutely favorite) but I have a whole playlist on my Spotify just called ā€œNostalgiaā€ which is full of '00s to '10s EDM and party songs. I canā€™t explain it, but it brings some kind of nostalgia in me despite the fact I wasnā€™t really partying or anything at the time of their debut. ---

Is video game music a genre? R&B would be a close second. ---

Yes, it is! a very nice choice. ---

I think my Favorite song would be [DJVI - Recycles!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YI0dNbbRamc) I love **electronic** music! ---

> [@Sarge](#): > > Except K-POP. Iā€™ll never listen to K-POP šŸ˜” Finally! Someone who agrees! Anyway, my music taste is quite varied. It goes into about 4 categories. - Bedroom Pop - This is mainly just BoyWithUke music; I usually listen to it when Iā€™m feeling down. A few of my favourite BoyWithUke songs are Heart of Ice, Out of Reach, and idtwcbf (friends). Please mind that there is occasional foul language in his songs. - VGM (video game music) - This is mainly just Zelda music. Yeah, I like Zelda. - Soccer music (Electronic Pop) - Honestly, the genre is very varied in this category. Itā€™s just a bunch of soccer-related music such as Ramenez la coupe Ć  la maison by Vegedream and Waka Waka by Shakira. I have a playlist on Spotify named ā€œsoccer powerā€ to get my brain in the zone for matches. - Romantic ballads/Slow songs - Makes me feel better about myself šŸ„² Jokes aside, I donā€™t know, I like the feeling or vibe they give me. Calm, soothing and the sobbing you hear every once in a while. My favourite songs in this category include Dos Oruguitas by Sebastian Yatra, try by Sami Rose (cover of P!nkā€™s song), Until I Found You by Stephen Sanchez, Talking to the Moon by Bruno Mars, and Golden Hour by JVKE. The music I listen to is primarily based on my mood (I mean whose isnā€™t?) so I wouldnā€™t rank these categories. All are number 1 šŸ† I love the idea of a weekly tropic discussion to learn more about the forum users, by the way! Read my ā€œi donā€™t likeā€ list at your own discretion! I might hurt your feelings if you are offended easily šŸ˜¢ I personally donā€™t like metal, rock, K-Pop, J-Pop, and anime music. Sorry if I hurt your feelings. ---

I love classic piano music, so [Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement](https://youtu.be/BV7RkEL6oRc). Thereā€™s also a [remix](https://youtu.be/j9-0GHeHV7c) thatā€™s an absolute banger made by _Meganeko_. (This song might be familiar cause itā€™s the song Bli used for Change of Scene in GD) [Another one of my fav songs](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) ---

Honestlyā€¦ ā€¦ Electronic music sounds like background music to me, nice for a game or show or exercise or something, but as a genre? I dont get it 0\_0 ---

Same, I donā€™t get it. Of course, I used to listen to it (Alan Walker era) but now itā€™s kind of outdated for some peopleā€™s tastes. ---

Oooooh yees! Finally, I have a place where I can rant about the awesomeness of my favourite composersā€™ music! Ok, my favourite composer is Yoko Shimomura, and she makes some of my favourite songs OF ALL TIME! She composes music for Kingdom Hearts, my favourite game series! (Even better than Kirby: thatā€™s CRAZY coming from me) Iā€™ll only show my top 3. Here are my favourite songs from Yoko so far: 1. Darkness of the Unknown: My favourite song to this date, has three phases to the song (last phase is my favourite). This plays during the battles against Xemnas in Kingdom Hearts 2. Itā€™s AMAZING. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/V9jQAbsJ9vY/maxresdefault.jpg "Darkness of the Unknown") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9jQAbsJ9vY) 1. Disappeared: This chilling theme was used the first time Sora encountered Xemnas, in Kingdom Hearts 1. He was an optional boss at the end, commonly known as ā€œThe Enigmatic Manā€. If you hadnā€™t noticed, Xemnas is my favourite character! He looks like this: ![IMG_4869](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/6/657aa91604caba52ae8b3d9e40eac64575667c47.gif) And hereā€™s the song: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/DoTplmuSHMg/maxresdefault.jpg "Disappeared - Kingdom Hearts Final Mix") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoTplmuSHMg) 1. Vanitas battle theme: This theme is just controlled chaos. Itā€™s so, so, so, so, so, SO, SO, **SO** good. This plays in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, during the Vanitas fights. Itā€™s a fusion of Roxasā€™ theme, Ventusā€™ theme and Soraā€™s theme. Here it is: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/mS2F_F05WRU/hqdefault.jpg "Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep Music - Vanitas Battle Theme [extended]") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mS2F_F05WRU) Hope you enjoyed! ---

I love the idea of random weekly topics. I also like classical music, though some more recent instrumental pieces (I dislike most lyrics) that sound similar are cool. I donā€™t like too modern of music but I can understand why some people might like it. I donā€™t listen to music a ton though, sometimes I block out all sound and prefer silence, or use stuff like white noise to drown out the chaos. ---
