What do you think of modern classical composers such as Gustav Holst?
Antny:
Americana,
Country (some of it)
Electronica,
Blues,
Classic Rock,
Spoken word style intellectual style hip-hop jazz along the old school Diggable Planets stlye,
Middle Eastern drumming jams,
Celtic bagpipes and fiddles,
lotsa shit that's not exactly mainstream.

ehm:
The only decent music scene is old music and underground. I have two ways I answer the question, "What kind of music do you listen to?" when asked:
In the past I?d say, ?"Probably things that you've never heard of,? as I tug down my too-tight vintage argyle sweater and turn my toes in to each other as one of my Converse All Stars kicks at the ground that I?m gazing down upon.
Now a days it?s more like, ?I listen to all music, with the emphasis on "all.? This cop-out never works, so I am hard-pressed to either sound like some aging hipster or pretentious snob: "I listen to a lot of underground stuff: rare & classic rock, big band, old jazz, punk, post punk, glam/goth, psychedelic, alt/indie/emo, synth-pop, noise, dance music and old country??
The bottom line is that today?s mainstream music sucks, and has for a long time. If you want good tunes, you gotta dig for ?em.
