Me As A Consumer Of Music

What genres of music do you enjoy listening to and who are your favourite artists?


The genres of music I enjoy listening to the most are; Pop, Northern Soul, Rap, Indie Pop. Within these my favourite artists/ bands are; Catfish and the Battlement, which are an Alternative rock band. Troye Sivan, who is classified as Electropop dream pop. You me at Six, which are an Pop Punk/ Alternative Rock band.

Why do you like these genres /artists?


The reason why I like these genres of music are because they each are completely different to each other of how the overall music. The reason why I like these artists are because each of these artists are within a different genre however, each are included within the charts (pop genre).

What has influenced your choice of music as you have grown up?


What has influenced my choice in music is by growing up with the same music in which my dad listens to. This got me into Northern Soul. I feel that the music which you are surrounded by when at a young age makes a huge impact on which genres of music you listen to now. The people who you are surround by influence your choice of music because in today’s generation you talk about the charts and keep up to date with each other.

What genres of music do you not enjoy listening to and why?

The genre of music which I don't not enjoy listening to is Opera music. The reason for this is because I prefer the voice and the backing music to be at an equal level however, as with Opera I feel that the voice is too over powering. Another genre of music in which I don't enjoy listening too is baroque. The reason for this is there is just too much going on within this genre of music.

How and when do you listen to music? Do you listen to the radio, listen on your iPod/phone, watch music to channels?

I listen to music throughout the day. I listen to music from my laptop and phone. I listen to music through app purchases. iTunes and spotify. I watch music channels on TV to see updated new within the music world.

Do you buy physical/digital music or do you download music in other ways?


I do buy physical copies of music still because I like they are more memorable and you have the album art. On the the hand, I do find it easier to download and buy music on apps such as iTunes or purchase them through spotify as it is easier to have them on your devices.
