Re: curious about your listening habits
Reggae has hovered around 90% for me the past few years. This is partially because I only have turntables hooked up to my speakers at home and at least 90% of my records are reggae. The remaining 10% of my listening is a hodgepodge of disparate artists. Right now most of the 10% is taken up by Simply Saucer's Cyborgs Revisited LP and Speed Glue & Shinki's two LPs - three amazingly heavy and experimental records that sound like nothing else in the rock cannon. I think this SG&S track might appeal to some dub fans here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5czgx5v ... re=related.
In high school, reggae was around 15% for me, while rock was 70% and hip hop 15%. Over the past decade, and especially once I began collecting records, reggae outstripped everything else. After spending a great deal of time researching and listening to reggae, sometimes I question if I listen to reggae simply out of habit but then I'll put on something like Noel Ellis's LP and the thought evaporates immediately. I highly doubt reggae will ever be a secondary musical interest with me.

Used to be 95% for a few years.
Now I think it must be like 50%. The rest being taken up by soul, jazz, classical, a bit of folk stuff here and there.

Re: curious about your listening habits
In high school I used to listen to Prog Rock and blues. I hated reggae. But then somethings changed in my life and i fell in love with reggae.
I would say for the past few years the statistics are:
80% Reggae
15% Soul Funk
5% Rock

Re: curious about your listening habits
First post..
I am an iTunes shuffle listener these days for the most part, for better or for worse, being that I commute on a bus to work everyday and sit at a computer for 8 hours with headphones. The music I listen to is probably only 35% reggae. Sounds about right. For every two hours of other music, I listen to one hour of Jamaican music. Blackboard Jungle Dub at the moment.
Cool forum, glad I found it. I hope to be introduced to some life long favorite recordings via this website and all of you on here.
Cheers

Re: curious about your listening habits
I am surprised that african music is not mentioned too much here, I am completly into those malian, nigerian, benise (and so on) rereleases on labels like soundway, analog african, mississippi, kindred spirits et all
Then a like blues from the 20ies and 30ies, bossa nova (specially the rereleases on soul jazz), english folk revival, and classical music like bartok or schönberg
