When people ask me about music I just say “I don’t really listen to much music”
I know they’re trying to develop a conception or me, I recognize that they’re trying to get an idea of who I am, trying to start a conversation but I also know they will not draw any meaningful information from the answers I could give. Not because what i like is “too sophisticated and they just wouldn’t get it” but because my taste is completely incoherent. My taste is obscure and trash, and each listened facet is tonally dissonant from the last.
