Do you let music 'grow on you'?

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

This thread may be interesting for some:

Can You Force Yourself To Like A Record Through Blunt-Force Repetition?

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.

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, BUT
3) 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.)

i want to hear more world mixtures, like

black metal reggae

Here you go, kind of:
