Heya guys, i just came back (for my first post in god knows how long) to see if anyone would be kind enough to answer a little questionnaire on music for me? (college work)
but a good music thread is always good right?

anyway:
Are you male of female? male

what genres of music do you like? rock, metal, classical, soundtracks, alternative rock, blues, comedy/parody music (lonely island, tim minchin etc), solo guitar work (both acoustic and shred), industrial metal

what is your favourite genre? probably metal, but that is a LOT of subgenres...

how much of a presence does music have in your life? 9 (6 just listening to it, but i also love playing guitar so it goes up a lot)

do you prefer solo artists or bands? bands

who is your favourite music artist? rammstein, with iron maiden as a close second

would you say music has inspired you? yes, inspired me to play guitar

do you support your artists/genres? yes

if so how? going to gigs, buying albums and merch

does music influence your dress sense? not as much now, a couple of band/festival t-shirts is it.

how often do you listen to music per day? this one really depends, because usually 2-3 hours, but if i'm working a night shift it's 10 hours in a night, so i'll average out at 3-6.

hope it helps ^^

[Dethenger]

Are you male or female?
Male

What genres of music do you like?
Rock (and most subgenres thereof: Classic, Alternative, Progressive, etc.), Rap, Electronic, Instrumental, Video Game/ Chiptune, Comedy, Funk, and then random, individual samples of others I can't recall.

What is your favourite genre?
Classic Rock

How much of a presence does music have in your life?
1-10, 1 being none, 5 being enough to be opinionated, 10 to be music central.
I suppose a 7.

Do you prefer solo artists or bands?
No preference.

Who is your favourite music artist?
I can't really say. I mean, saying I like The Rolling Stones more or less than Eminem is like saying I like pumpkin lattes more or less than I like Dr. Pepper. They're not really comparable. Apples and oranges.

Would you say music has inspired you?
Yes.

Do you support your artists/genres? (e.g buying music)
When I have money, yes.

If so how?
Purchasing their music and some shirts.

Does music influence your dress sense? (band shirts or such clothing).
A bit. I usually wear something over it, though. It's not like I do it promotionally, like "Hey, this is my Rolling Stones T-shirt, I like the Rolling Stones."

how often do you listen to music per day?
>1hour 1-2 hours 2-3 hours 3-6 hours +6 hours?
Definitely 6+. There's music all around.

-...Yes (But, not in a musical way...)

-Yes... I purchase all of their albums (mainly physical copies, rarely digital unless last resort) and related DVDs...

-No; it's mostly TV shows and anime that does that...

-6+ hours (Day and Night; Ipod or CD player)

I'm quite diverse musically, I don't favouritise or idenitify with just one genre I like "good music".
I do not let music define who I am. I am a person, not a genre. Happy to help

 

[Strazdas]

Are you male of female?
Your white fat male nerd steretype here

what genres of music do you like? (list any/all)
Rock/metal, but i sometimes listen to other genres if i find good artist, for example Gavin (Miracle of Sound). I also like some musicals ("Once more, with feeling", "Repo, The Genetic Opera"), but not your traditional musical.

what is your favourite genre?
If id have to pick, i probably like metal more. Ah, but thats a large genre isnt it. Power metal and Nu-metal is the most popular in my collection. I dont like trash metal at all though.

how much of a presence does music have in your life?
1-10 1 being none, 5 being enough to be opinionated, 10 to be music central.
The scale isnt detailed, but lets say a 7

do you prefer solo artists or bands?
I wouldnt say i have a preference, but over 90% of stuff i listen to are bands, so i guess that then

who is your favourite music artist?
That would be Disturbed

would you say music has inspired you?
A big, resounding, yes.

do you support your artists/genres? (e.g buying music)
Yes

if so how?
Either buying their music, directly from them when possible, or supporting them in other direct ways. i try to go around the publishers and thier 80% margins, because i want to support artist, not publisher

does music influence your dress sense? (band shirts or such clothing).
No. For a metalhead like me i dress closer to what stereotypical trance listener looks like. and i hate trance

how often do you listen to music per day?
>1hour 1-2 hours 2-3 hours 3-6 hours +6 hours?
that depends on the day a lot. some days its a 30 minutes ride from work to university, other days its a 13 hour listening everywhere i go.
But lets do averages then i guess, 1-2 hours from what i calculate from my Last.fm profile. though how complete that is i dont know, there could be a lot of stuff listening (it does not track stuff i listen on the phone for example).

PS, do you mind sharing the aggregated results later on?

Market research questions are not psychology questions...

Market research questions are not psychology questions...

On the contrary, market research is part of psychology. Though doing market research under false pretenses taints the data. I'm sure the OP realizes this, were that the case.

you are both kinda wrong im doing this for a psychology class in college, i lacked results so decided i would get some extra via one of the more diverse websites i could think of.
it has worked but i am waiting for how i have done right now and may post again about it!

Orchestral or Sengoku Jidai-period music can get me in the mood for stuff,

Of course, piracy is a:


By buying and recommending their music to people of similar tastes,

No it does not, but neither does gaming or any other medium that I immerse in,
