Music Preferences

Hodge Podge of styles. Symphonic Metal, Trance(Still looking for Dramatic Trance if it does exist, it is quite epic. Mixing a classical/dark Transylvanian style tunes with trance or rock is always pleasant to my ears). I like my music to be a mix of styles. I also like heavy bass tracks, I mean dj's that do more than just "thump thump thump" and use the larger spectrum(Bass Nectar for instance).

Interests (non-headphone)

Gaming (My largest hobby)
