I heard "Bolero" in there, one of my favorite classical songs. Makes me want to pick up on some sophisticated latinas.

That's a purely modern western notion. For example, in the middle ages, pitches were slightly lower than they are now, and the sitar in Indian music uses all kinds of different pitches.
Although it's not my favorite style, electronica utilizes just about any frequency out there, complete with all manner of inflections.
indeed. western music is only 12 scales of 12
but eastern music uses all sorts of sud tones and modal stuff
but still
its all part of the spectrum of vibrations your ears can capture
you can always keep sub dividing it.

You think all jazz sounds the same, but Daft Punk doesn't? I mean, I like Daft Punk and all, but they don't even come close to jazz, and Daft Punk can get pretty repetitive.

Truth, there are tons of quarter tones for each note. Although lots of music follows the same pattern of an overpowering melody, but even that statement can be proved wrong.

well i have studied music a lot.
miles davis "bitches brew" might be the deepest album i have ever heard. the guy had something weird going on with that album. i studied music theory in depth for a long time, but something about that album is way over my head.
i am not too much in to jazz anymore.

Goddamn you beat me to it. I was going to use bitches brew as a perfect example as all jazz not sounding the same. Jazz purists and many of davis's fans HATE bitches brew, my dad who has met 90% of the major jazz musicians and who's jazz vinyl collection is so immense it takes up 1/2 a room, just shakes his head and says "i dont get it" in reference to that album.
But even at the basics you have so many different forms of jazz it's not even funny, to say that "take the A train" sounds like "satin doll" or "jeeps blues" is ridiculous and they're all from the same artist. Even more so saying the music benny goodman produces sounds like the music jaco pastorius produces is equally as crazy.
I've always had a passion for the music tho, i was first chair sax and lead alto in my "orchestra" and jazz band up until high school. Made districts and state music bands many years in a row, something about the music just speaks to me, its like i can see and feel what the artist was when they played that solo or wrote that tune.
So maybe my opinion is highly biased, but still, I <3 me some jazz.
