I get bored with music so I try to listen to things in different types of genre to see what's possible.
We listen to so many different types of music, so it's easy for us to play a different genre or style and it be true to what we do.
If there's only one genre that it's possible to listen to or possible to see live, then how can you explore different styles? How can you evolve, musically?
What excites me is to know I don't have any limits, that it's quite an open project, more open than I thought it could be. To have this freedom to try very different things. I listen to lots of music from every genre.
I try to listen to as much different music as possible - I've always got music blasting in my ears!
I never set out to be part of a genre, because I listen to all types of music.
From alternative to Brazilian to hip-hop to old R&B, that's what we listen to. And we don't just listen to it only if somebody plays it. We actually go out and buy these types of things and support different forms of music because we love them.
My genre of music is called Afro-Fusion because I fuse different types of music into a ball.
Getting to do different genres of movies means you're gonna have different types of situations. So I want to try and do every type of genre there is out there.
I'm just different. There are a handful of different types of genre of music that I would love to just jump into and people don't realize that I'm really good at those things. They just know me as Tony Sunshine, the guy that sang the hooks for Terror Squad.
My music library has about every genre of music possible. I've really gotten into Ray LaMontagne, He makes amazing music, so I listen to him, and he's a great artist.
I listen to all types of different music. I go to different festivals. I'm around music.
I try to listen to as much as possible. I know some people really try to avoid music when they're writing and recording, but I am very inspired by so many different musicians, and I need to learn.
Occasionally people ask me how it is I write different types of things, and my answer to that is it's very natural. You get bored writing one kind of thing all the time.
I'll take two months off just to listen to records and not do any music so I can absorb all that and then when I go do my music. It's all in me. I'll listen to a different genre every two days or something, study it, 24 hours straight.
I listen to a lot of alternative types of music: I listen to a lot of Chinese music, I listen to a lot of Asian music. It might surprise you, but I listen to a lot of Arabic music. And I don't care - music is music.
I don't have a type. I've dated so many different types, different personalities, different looks - from athletic to very non-athletic. The only thing I have to have is someone who is really motivated in life and challenges me. If I don't have that, I get bored.
