I wonder how much the styles of music we listened to in our youth dictates what we like or what we look for in VGM?
Although I like a varied amount of styles in the soundtracks I own, I tend to gravitate towards orchestral, ambient and those with complex percussion (everything I learned about percussion I learned from Hiroki Kikuta ^__^)
Thinking back on the past, my parents listened to alot of best of Bach, Mozart, Vivaldi etc. And acoustic folk by Croce, Cat Stevens and the like. Still doesn't explain the percussion thing though.
