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?

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.

Quite recently. My husband kept asking me to Ren as he's from the same town as me but I knew it was a bit rappy and rap is not my thing.
Turns out Ren is great and some rap is maybe alright so that surprised me.
Bit of a deeper cut, but Dr Syntax is amazing, has been around since the golden age of UK Hip Hop (IMHO), the early 2000s, and is also from Brighton.
If a real lover of music doesn't like Hip Hop/Rap, they are invariably looking in the wrong place. There isn't really a more diverse, granulated, genre - including Punk and Jazz (both of which I love).
If you fancy looking a bit further afield, you could start your adventure with Aesop Rock. Bon voyage!
