i mean all music. i listen to lots of satellite radio, i listen to lots of random things that discover in all sorts of places. i find that about one new artist out of every few hundred i hear regardless of genre touches me enough that i care about their music. one of the last acoustic artists i heard that i liked was that Jose Gonzales guy whom i heard on satellite only to discover that his music was released on Peacefrog of all labels. > Of course there's tons of nonsense but there always has been.
