What kind of music did you guys listen to before you started listen to EDM (Trance/House/DnB/Techno/Hardcore/Euro/etc.)? Or did you always listen some form of EDM?

I started out listening to a lot of alternative and metal stuff stuff..and some punk stuff...

Then later on actually liked the rap/hip-hop for a couple years ... argh!

I then finally transitioned to the Euro stuff which let me to become a trance lover :D

i liked mainstream radio , then i liked punk/ska music, then i liked some alternative and rap. Then my brother (Emonster4life) and i started to blaze together and he really got me into trance and house. I still cant and probably never will be able to like drum and bass.

oh god when i was way young i was into pop stuff, top 40 ie. backstreet boys, spice girls, n sync (mind u i was like 8 at the time lol)

then i got into korn, metallica, limp bizkit and to this day i still listen to a bit of that once in a while

then when i hit highschool i got into what is now called classic trance and from there it just continued to grow on me and now i'll listen to pretty much every form of edm

i always loved my hip hop n i still do.....
but since finishing high skool its been nuttin but trance and hard house.....
as much as i liked 50cents tunes he killed hiphop for me.....
all these rappers talk bout now is how big there rims are and gold in there mouths.....

hip hop

i'm really curious to see what turns up in this thread, i find it funny that most people i know who were into hip hop before getting into edm started their experience with trance first, which really makes no sense, before progressing to jungle/dnb. i guess because most people introduced to their first big party do so w/ their first pill and trance ends up making sense.

Euro/top 40 -> alternative/punk -> trance -> techno/house

Classical (esp. baroque) throughout

LightsOut
