my old man can't believe some of the stuff that comes out of the speakers when I'm around. the first time my dad came into my room when I had some minimal on, he basically muttered "you're on drugs" and walked out of the room. when I think of what they might be hearing when something like pendulum comes on, i just cringe at the thought of trying to bring someone up to speed who is so completely out of touch with that style of music that I usually reach for the dial before he does. it's about probably the same way that I feel about dubstep

anyway, do any of your folks like your tunes? hate them? how about your kids, come to think of it (if there is anyone who frequents m&djs who is both old enough to have them and together enough to trick real live woman into having sex with them)? my buddy's two year old goes apeshit for breaks. it's the cutest thing in the world. he used to bounce up and down in his little walker thing for hours. they just keep getting younger and younger...
 
My mother seems to like some of my EDM. If im listening to it around her she'll dance from time to time

My father just calls it noise and ive heard "you must be on drugs" several times from him when listening to my music around him.

I find it funny though, one of my closest friends use to listen to EDM around her mother and her mother not only liked it, but got really into it as well!
 
i just think that would be weird. when i was younger I was really into hip hop, and I found out my mom was listening to The Marshall Mathers EP in the car after I had left it there. and singing along. :\

it was kind of cute though because she would edit out all the swear words

you don't/
wanna mess with shady.
cuz shady/
will probably kill you/
 
hahahaha you totally just put the image of a soccer mom on her way to soccer practice or a booster club meeting blasting Eminem and rapping along with it :D
 
My Dad and I are huge jazz aficionados so we never butt heads about music when we're driving somewhere, hanging out, etc. My Mom however, is still stuck in 1960's motown and hates my trance, electro, techno, etc type mixes which I usually blast in my room while studying. She thinks only drug-addled ravers listen to that type of music, LOL.
 
It depends what I'm listening to at the time.

If I was listening to The Beatles, Lou Reed or The Cure they might enjoy it as well.

But I also listen to a lot of different styles of dance music, and I doubt they understand much dance music at all.
 
I can tell my parents like house. I've played a couple deep house cds and my mom digs it. I think its because they loved disco when they were young and you can tell house had its roots in disco.
 
my mom hates the majority of my music, called the electronic stuff "loser rave music," called reggae "stupid pothead music" and referred to phish as "dirty hippy music." her fave artists are the dixie chicks and lady gaga.

i sent my dad some shpongle (he's a flautist so i sent some great raja solos/rifts) and he was into it; he's not really into electronic music, though. we share a lot of the same tastes (classic rock, classical, jazz, some rock) and a lot of my musical choices were influenced by him.
 
Some of it would overlap: I got into the Beatles and Simon and Garfunkel because my parents had them; my dad likes Johnny Cash who I now like a lot. Most of it wouldn't, especially the punk stuff, even though I like more mainstream punk. (Remember my mother hearing me play Dinosaur Jr "It sounds like they're in pain").

My dad is trying to be more open-minded about stuff, a while back he wanted me to take him to a club (or at least a late bar playing EDM) but it never happened. Probably fortunately.
 
They really don't like electronic music, or hip hop, or trip hop or funky hippie shit or any of the music that i listen to. i can't even listen to my music around them because they get annoyed and tell me to turn it off. i think its pretty funny when i leave something pretty 'offensive' in the cd player and then they end up having to drive my car somewhere... you can hear them turn on the car and it starts bumpin. haha.

we do have music we can agree on, though, like jazz or bluegrass or something more mainstream. classic rock always goes. so i mean we can have music on when we chill together but it's not something i'd have on by myself or with my friends or something.

my parents like disco so they dont have a huge issue with it (goa is what i listen to), just sounds like a different kind of disco to them. both my parents like my psychill cds though.
