For me it's EDM. In 2007 I believe Armin Van Buuren released Shivers. When I first heard it I knew I found my new genre.
I used to just listen to rap but never listen to that anymore really.
What about you guys?

Rock/blues
I don't remember the year but I was pretty young and thought rap was my favorite at the time (like 12-14), my mom played voodoo child by hendrix during a car ride because my dad wasn't with us because he hates almost all kinds of music, instantly fell in love and from there I found pink floyd and so on, now I love that and dislike rap for the most part. Thanks to my mom I grew up with and loved a wide variety of different genres and eras of music but rock/blues definitely takes the cake.

My favorite genre is EDM and it was Blood Rave that got me into a looooong time ago:

A bunch of 90s grunge, classic rock and a bit of blues. Now it's electric ambient, jam bands and a side of some classic. Maybe some 90s.

I grew up with what I imagine was a pretty good background to music, taught the piano as a baby, musicians on both sides of the family, dad worked in a hifi shop so I got to here whatever customers would bring in
Then, in 1996, I heard this on the John Peel show:
Never heard of anything like this before, and I was hooked. Boards of Canada remain my favourite band to date.

I listen mostly to electronic music, and have been for over 20 years now. So it's impossible for me to recall a specific song that got me into it. I grew up loving new wave style synth pop & the instrumentals of hip-hop, so I think getting into dance music in the early 90s was a natural progression that no one tune can take credit for.
However, I have been on a huge synthwave kick for the past few years, just love the stuff. The song that really introduced me to that specific micro genre was actually one a user named "Cannibal Concubine" posted here back in 2013, and is shared below:
Power Glove- Motorcycle Cop
Logical Chaos, that's a cool song, big in the 90s for sure, but it's not actually called "Blood Rave". Its really the Pump Panel remix of New Order's 'Confusion'.

I'm really into the various genres of metal and punk.
Probably the first song that got me hooked was Superbeast by Rob Zombie in the 4th or 5th grade. When Worlds Collide by Powerman 5000 was a huge influence as well. That was the time when I started developing my own musical tastes and they happened to be radically different than that of my peers.
In the 6th grade I finally met a new kid who's step dad owned a White Zombie album and we rocked out to that all the time. We didn't even know what goth kids were at the time, and by the time highschool came around we knew we had our place in society lol.

I listen to many many styles of music but at the moment i would have to say my favorite/most frequently played genre is hip hop. This is the first rap song I ever got really into:
I was like 10 or 11 years old. Not really a favorite of mine these days by any means, but it still a banger. This is the song that REALLY got me into rap years later:

Linkin Park/Korn/Slipknot = all inversion into "hey, there is music out there, that isn't in movies and games, that's good". - then my ego died, so none of this actually counts up till now.
Cynic - got me into metal; along with Atheist.
Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works 2 got me into Autechre and Mouse On Mars and Cylob and all the like (BoC), and into electronica music, even though, all of this stuff (and the metal) was already applicable to my style of music-like, because of video games of course. (also instilled a deep liking for classical composition as well -- and Jazz -- but that came later.)
but those all my favorite types and intro bands, and basic history, without too much expounding.
but if i was narrow down one thing: guess it'd have to be Cynic.
(PS: oh yeah, forgot to mention that lucky-ass longshot comparison from my dad, on Linkin Park, of all things, to Alice Cooper. thanks dad! Alice Cooper is fucking awesome!

Ah yea. Slipknot was the shit during highschool. They're the reason I got into heavier shit. Although they aren't, they were the gateway drug to Death Metal and Black Metal for me.

I don't have a favorite, never have. I think if I went a different route in life, I would have liked to get into music production, because I think I have a good ear as to what sounds good regardless of genre.
I can hear why songs, even if they're in a genre I don't enjoy on the regular, might be popular.
Over the past month I have been really big into classical music (Debussy, Chopin, Bartok), and hardcore dance genres like happy hardcore, hardtrance/trancecore, hardstyle, and regular hardcore.

If I were forced to pick I would have to go with folk punk. What really got me into it was street bands that I don't really remember who or what I heard first, but I think the first artist I found when I started seeking out recordings was Johnny Hobo and this is the first song I remember listening to
I also like folk/blues/bluegrass/acoustic stuff in general. I really liked Nirvana and Alice in Chains "Unplugged" when I was young and later on Woodie Guthrie was an idol of mine.

Favorite genre is so limiting.
Modest Mouse is my favorite band.
I listen to all kinds of music, from Múm to Twiztid.
Sigur Ros is dope as well.
