What I like to listen to.....
Classical
When I read, I often like to listen to Beethoven, Bach, and a few others, whose names I don't know how to spell.  It helps me keep focus on the reading material and not lose interest too fast.  Classical also helps me when I just need to gather my thoughts.
Popular
Nirvana, Janet Jackson, Garbage, Cowboy Mouth, Cowboy Junkies, No Doubt, Splendora, Barenaked Ladies, Blondie, etc.
Techno
I usually listen to this type when I am preparing to go out partying for the night.  It gets me in the mood.
Jazz
My friend and roomate in college got me into jazz.  He listened to it a lot, so I had to listen to it..... and eventually, I started to like it.  I prefer more instrumental jazz like Tuck Andress, Vince Giraldi (he did the Charlie Brown stuff).... the only vocal I listen to is Tuck and Patti.  I don't like the soft jazz.... it is just to weak for me.
New Age
I have a lot of the Windham Hill and Narada collections.  I also listen to Michael Hedges.
Rap
I enjoy very little of this type, but I do enjoy listening to TLC, Salt & Pepa, 311, and the old 80's stuff.
Soundtracks/Showtunes
This goes without saying......
Other
These are just hard for me to classify.  Vanessa Mae, XTC, Linkin Park, Evanescence and Ether Bunny.
