I very much doubt I'll ever get much into blues, hiphop, skiffle, swing, crooners, mod, country that doesn't have any alt rock appeal and traditional punk but I feel I'm missing out on dance, jazz and world.

there's this young person on rym who went through and did a cursory review of the top-rated album in every genre on that site. it's from that list that i discovered that "world" covers a lot of genres, and also that there are a _lot_ of genres i really don't have any interest in.

My listening habits have def changed. Now with lockdown I have way more time. So yes some shit is growing on me.

Definitely, there's a lot of that music I wouldnt even know if it fell under a kind of classical or folk. I really don't have the foggiest of just how much Dance might cover either.

If I were to come up with two columns – subgenres I like/dislike – chances are the latter would outweigh the former.

Editing a world music magazine for two years taught me a few things:
1) People all around the globe love shitty pop, they just want it in their native language;2) Music from hot countries > music from cold countries, BUT3) Music from deserts > music from jungles

1) is true, but 2) and 3) are just... I hope you're being facetious. (Spoiler: there is good and bad music from countries hot and cold; also, some countries are both, some neither.)
