What music do you find nourishing?
-
I have BPD and so music can have a profound effect on my mood. I tend to match the mood of the song (the lyrics, tho, unless all instrumental) so anything positive feels good. Unfortunately, my tastes gravitate more toward dark, depressing shit. A lot of Grunge and similar sounding genres. I've more recently been only adding things to my big playlist when they are uplifting. The last few on there are songs from K-Pop Demon Hunters... 🫣
man, I've heard a lot of nice things about K-Pop Demon Hunters. but even when the early waves of K-Pop going global (think SNSD era. at least that's my gateway) I was lukewarm on the genre, let alone the more contemporary ones now.
-
I feel like so much romantic and popular music is quite borderline or unhealthy.
It's not all I listen to but I still don't see why you would say that, lol.

Why do Disney princess tales fuck up people's marriages in terms of the expectations they set against whatbis actually realistic
There's a big leap between 'Disney princess tales' and "you are the reason for my laughter and my sorrows, blow out the candle I will burn again tomorrow", "in my life only you make me do for love what I would not do", "every part of you has the ideal shape, and if you're next to me it's a complete coincidence of concave and convex" (literal translation of "O concavo e o convexo" by Roberto Carlos), "you can try to destroy anything you want, she only needs to open the span of her arms to rebuild everything" ("Je l'aime a mourir" by Francis Cabrel)... all of this makes total sense to anyone who has truly loved anyone in earnest, it's not fantasy but mere lived experience expressed through poetry. Have you, or is this just a big case of scared ignorance/sour grapes?

Stoner rock and doom metal, like Sleep and Electric Wizard. It's cathartic to me for some reason. Sonic drugs for someone not into actual drugs.

Metal music is the majority of what I'm listening to most of the time.
Progressive metal is my reset music. Something about a good prog track with crazy technical instrumentality just helps my brain calm down and focus. Between the Buried and Me was the band that got me hooked on prog metal and dirty vocals, and tends to be one of my most listened to artists most of the time.
Power metal is a great genre to work/vibe to. Sabaton was my first venture into the genre, but I'm more into bands like Amaranthe, Powerwolf, and Gloryhammer these days.

Depends on the group really, especially with the explosion of so many of them. I tend to prefer the ones who have r&b-influenced music.

There are loads of romantic music! It's easy to chose the songs/authors you like and not listen to the ones you find unhealthy.

Can you recommend some good r&b influenced k-pop songs? I'd like to give them a try.

Sure. I don't want to overwhelm you with links so just a couple off the top of my head:
Mamamoo's High Tension and Rude Boy
Le Sserafim's Impurities
Wheein's Breeze
Kiss of Life's Chemistry
Natty's Sugarcoat
Hell, even BTS has some great r&b songs. Example is Paradise
Basically Mamamoo and Kiss of Life lean more into r&b. Dig deeper into BTS' discography and you'll find great r&b songs.
And of course, you can just go straight to kr&b which is a whole different world. Artists like Dean, Heize, DPR, BIBI, and Tabber to name a few; with the latter two having the best overall discographies IMO.

Thanks a lot, I'm looking forward to jumping into this new rabbit hole!

Death in Vegas's Dead Elvis album. Is mostly upbeat instrumental, good background or going to sleep music without being boring
