Video production, geekism, fun stuff of all types, fire-dancing, music, living in a gypsy wagon, questioning authority, questioning reality, evolving, laughing, spazzing out on occasion, meditation (to calm the spazzing), pretending to be Hunter S. Thompson, thinking about the end of the world and deciding on fleeing to another country (New Zealand is probably next), skateboarding, climbing trees, staying up all night for no particular reason, staying up all night WITH a particular reason, finishing this thing another time...
everyone simultaneously in a state of pure unity

Firstly, I've compiled it from the list of artists in my iTunes library, but I didn't just cut and paste here. I went through the whole thing, and this is about 3/8 of the artists in there. Secondly, a lot of these artists I have only heard a few songs of, because I have a lot of various artists albums in my collection. Thirdly, this couldn't possibly be the whole list. There's surely a ton of stuff out there that I am unaware of that I'd love just as much. If anyone has suggestions, send them my way. Lastly, anything you see in CAPITAL LETTERS is some of my favorite stuff ever.
