thats a pretty good question

mine became a lot more specific in terms of the musical characteristics i enjoyed the most
but also
i found more genres and musical styles from all around the world that satisfied my interests

so it got deeper and more specific and at once also very much broadened

Yes. After I grew up I started listening to serious music like Linkin Park.

>>129655122
I used to listen to screamo and punk. Now it’s just cool jazz and piano rock.

my taste just gets more inclusive over time. i've been getting deep into reggae recently.

I don't know, I don't think of music in terms of how mature it is. I'm sure a lot of people would consider the music I listen to to be immature but in my experience those people tend to be miserable and repulsive.

I like jazz more now. Still a tourist really, but I find myself more earnestly exploring it.

Same. Classical as well. It’s really nice for driving or just playing in the house

Yes, absolutely. I'm not old, I'm only 21, but I only listened to nu-metal and groove metal when I was 16 because it made me feel pumped (bands like SOAD, machine head, etc. Not bad bands per se, but they just make me cringe thinking about only listening to those.)

I found emotional connection to some of those songs and kept searching for songs that scratched that same itch of connection, but also could feel a sense of originality and pure emotion. I also kept diving into different genres and listening to all kinds of music. Stuff like reggae, roots reggae, dub, japanese reggae, darkwave, coldwave, new wave, no wave, experimental, r&b, acid jazz, etc etc.

Now I've got quite a library of artists I enjoy and constantly listen to from a lot of different genres that scratch that itch of introspection, emotion, originality, etc.
>The Chameleons
>The The
>Marc Almond/Soft Cell
>Ernest Ranglin
>Roots Radics
>Kazufumi Kodama/Mute Beat/Dub Master X
>Gene Pitney
>Sammy Davis Jr.

I've been listening to a lot of The Chameleons recently. I've been dissociating a lot recently and I feel bonded to the impassion of Mark Burgess (or Vox)'s lyrics and ethereal guitar sound.

it changed but maybe not for the better
i listen to all kinds of shit now just to get a kick. looking for something new. anything really
boredom is one hell of a drug

nope. You have to mature in order for your tastes to mature.
