Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	On this stereo, I listen to mostly, though not exclusively, to slower psychedelic music. Lots of modern psych-folk stuff, drone, ambient, etc. ex: Joanna Newsom, Smog, Bonnie Prince Billy, Lau Nau, Black Forest/Black Sea, Stars of the Lid, Steven R. Smith, Tarentel, John Fahey, Colleen, Charalambides, Jack Rose, Iron and Wine, Six Organs of Admittance I also like heavier stuff and some 'noise'. ex: Sunn O))), Earth, Boris, Lightning Bolt, Wolf Eyes, Merzbow, Prurient, Sonic Youth, Comets on Fire, Sunburned Hand of the Man, Deerhoof, Black Dice, etc. And finally, I like some jazzy stuff that everyone and their mother likes: ex: John Zorn, John Coltrane, Bill Frisell, Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, etc.
