I've listened to a bit of everything but mid 80's was listening to Hip Hop mainly, but bothers mate used to bring round about 10x 12" Singles every other week so we recorded all them on tape, mainly chart stuff but 12 inches were great, also bought Street Sounds Electro 13 in 1986 and loved all the mixed stuff as I like non stop music, at same time I liked general stuff like Genesis/Phil Collins, still listening to Duran Duran Rio, Tears for Fears, then found Club Music radio station on Satellite in 1989 which played all the latest dance, club, house, rap, mixes, some classic 80's dance stuff thrown in. I think it was 808 State that got me listening to Instrumental stuff as i never bothered before Pacific 707 out. Mate bought Prodigy album when that came out and they were awesome, then playing Rave/Techno, some Reggae
I think what's going to be amusing is when your 70 will you still be listening to Rave, Happy Hardcore etc

pretty sure I will be
