When was the last time you found piece that didn’t match your usual listening habits, but ended up liking it? How did you come accross it?

My taste has been mostly rock, metal and certain kinds of electroic music, but

Fallout introduced me to Billie Holiday

Youtube channel Inside the Score got me started on classical music, like actually listening and enjoying Beethoven, Sibelius and Dvorak and going even to a concert instead of just knowing the bits you can not avoid.

The jazz covers of Phoenix Wright music, especially The Dark Fragrance of Coffee, got me seeking for more of similar style.

    The new Lil Yachty album this year surprised me for sure. Really big departure from what he usually does, and he did it (in my opinion) really well. Never been a fan of his in the past

    Though it is more in line with what I usually listen to, experimental hip hop, psychedelic rock, indie. Just didn’t expect it from him.

    Something separate from what I usually enjoy would be That’s The Spirit by Bring Me the Horizon. Never been into that genre really (metal? I’m honestly not sure how they’re classified) but I really enjoy this album and I’m sure it’s gonna be right near the top of my Spotify Wrapped this year.
