At least tow people from this list, Julien C. and Ralf M. dislike

I hear great efforts
from pop/rock musicians, film score composers, game sound designers, and
so forth. Musically it's not often my preferred listening choices but I
can set aside prejudice long enough to try to get into the music per se.
You never ever will find a Marc Bolan recording here, but while I don't
own it and don't listen to it, IMO he's one of the very important
contemporary musicians and he had impact to the music I make, perhaps
more impact than Schönberg has got and I like Schönberg a lot.
