...and that's just what I listened to before breakfast! :-)
But genre-wise my main loves are 60s psychedelia, 70's post punk, 80's italo disco, synthpop, and early house music, 90's underground indie, shoegazing and dreampop and from there into the naughty noughties...
anything that tickles my audio funny bone but mainly eclectic 4/4 sounds for the Bristol heavy heavy heads...
Throughout the last decade or so I've been having a very indiscreet and messy love affair with techno so that's what I DJ to people who also like Techno.

...basically anything out of the normal structure of Hollywood so I mainly get my lookin' balls on European and Asian cinema. Anything that actually makes you think...y'know, like Smokey And The Bandit.
Television:
The only TV series you ever need is Heimat. Watch it and then smash your TV, because everything else will seem so poor in comparison...
Books:
Currently reading the back of a Corona beer bottle.
Heroes:
Heroes will only break your heart baby.
