Yeah, I kind of sound like a music snob or an old man at this time. I’ve been introducing her to classic rock, heavy metal, 90s hip-hop, R&B, 90s and 80s pop, 90s 2000s and 2010s techno, and so on.

I just like the idea. She’s very receptive to this and wants to hear a different genre each morning before school. Welcome to the world of dadding.

Could it be that you're playing the 'best of' previous decades not taking into account all the garbage that was produced at the time?

I'm still finding tons of awesome new music

Oh I remember the bullshit that was around back in the day.

Don't forget Ska, Punk, Reggae and at least some Country and Americana ( John Prine, Townes Van Zant, Bobbie Gentry ) some Bluegrass, oh and Industrial, Jungle... music is awesome and there's so much of it!

John Prince nestled between Reggae and Jungle is such a trip. We called him folk before Americana. Even genres change names.

I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
