The Music That Jonathan Listens To

There's no definitive thread that runs through the music I really like to listen to. At certain times, I'll listen to one set of music (with only a small bit of commonality), and in another mood I'll listen to something else completely.

My favourite artists

currently include the following, in no particular order:

(note that these are artists I seem to consistently like and rarely get tired of)

• Wolfstone
• Silly Wizard
• Fleetwood Mac
• Grand Dérangement
• Trans-Akadi
• Zemfira
• Yat-Kha
• Gabriel Yacoub
• Urker
• The Grass Roots
• The Beatles
• Junoon
• The Monkees
• CCR
• Luar na Lubre
• Bangles
• Dervish
