A lot of us listen to music of different types. Some of us only stick to a few genres and label everything else garbage. How musically diverse are you? Name 3 artists and at least 1 songs from them in each category that you would consider good music. If you don’t have a song or artist to fill every category, don’t worry, just leave the rest blank. This is a test to see how much music from each genre you can appreciate, not just filling in the blanks with people you don’t really like or listen to. Music transcends time and space, can you open your mind and groove to anything from Fleetwood Mac to Shirley Ceaser? Copy, Paste and compare people! If there are any genres that you feel have been left out, don’t be shy, add as you go along, let’s see how far this can go. ~This has been brought to you from the DJ PotpourrE Foundation For Completely Mixed Music in a more Harmonious World.
