When was the last time you found piece that didn’t match your usual listening habits, but ended up liking it? How did you come accross it?

My taste has been mostly rock, metal and certain kinds of electroic music, but

Fallout introduced me to Billie Holiday

Youtube channel Inside the Score got me started on classical music, like actually listening and enjoying Beethoven, Sibelius and Dvorak and going even to a concert instead of just knowing the bits you can not avoid.

The jazz covers of Phoenix Wright music, especially The Dark Fragrance of Coffee, got me seeking for more of similar style.

I grew up not liking rap and hip hop, except exclusively liking Eminem. But lately I've been trying to branch out. Thought I'd give Kanye a try, so I listed to the College Dropout album and wow, I was not expecting to like it the way I did. Almost the whole thing is solid beats and decent rhymes. Same with Graduation. Color me impressed Kanye, I don't like you as a person but your early music is great.
