    Default Genres/types of music and information elements

    Do certain styles of music pander to specific information elements/sociotypes?


    What is Se music? Ti music?

    Have you noticed any tendencies in the people you know?

    What do you like, and what is your current typing?

    If going by my current typing (LII-Ne, and presuming socionics is linked with music taste) does Ti like fugues, complex chord changes, systematication? I like Bach, Scarlatti, Gesualdo, Schubert, Langgaard. I notice that i like when music has a pattern to be solved and recognized (though this is true for all music) In the pop realm i like CAN, King Crimson, Kate Bush, Bowie, Captain Beefheart, Slint

    What kinds of music do you associate with which information elements or types?

    @Subteigh has an interesting thread on the topic. I'd say it's worth checking out.

    Se music is mostly trap and hiphop Si maybe classical music? Fi- would be more about the lyrics than the beats, etc etc. But that's not how it really is it.
    So many things can influence one's choice of music. LIKE instincts. Or enneatype. Or company. Or stumbling upon a certain song. People will love certain genres because other people love them, or because they're currently trending, or because it makes them unique, or because it's their culture.

    A lot of the music from the baroque era feels Alpha, maybe LII-ESE. Strong structure (Ti), Lightness in spirit (Ne), light instrumentation (Si), emotional expression (Fe).

    for example this

    but Bach doesn't fit into this. He feels gamma to me.

    I have a LII friend who used to be really into Baroque music.

    Classical era and Mozart maybe Alpha irrational.

    Romantic era could be associated with Beta.
    The decisive thing is not the reality of the object, but the reality of the subjective factor, i.e. the primordial images, which in their totality represent a psychic mirror-world. It is a mirror, however, with the peculiar capacity of representing the present contents of consciousness not in their known and customary form but in a certain sense sub specie aeternitatis, somewhat as a million-year old consciousness might see them.

    I suspect that with "Classical Music", the whole lot would be considered a genre in its own right in terms of correlation with personality traits, although I'd expect challenging, experimental modern works to be a distinct preference.

    My favourite classical era seems to lie in the Renaissance to early baroque. Monteverdi, Gesualdo, Dowland, all seem Ni-Fe to me? Maybe Fi-Ne
