Guest Al5x Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 (edited) My dad made me watch really cool educational programs about astro-physics, and he was into computers and telescopes and shit hardcore. That's basically why I'm into that kind of intellectual stuff. And he bought me and my brother a cheap keyboard to play around with. Also make your kids play old video games.

Discuss. make sure he walks in and catches you having sex with your pillow at some point and dont forget to fake your horror at the situation. He'll soon be in the margins of society just like his papa. You want to know how to seal the deal? Get a parrot.

QBLA Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 my dad has nothing to do with what i listen to throughout life. my dad was a hendrix fan. my mom was into disco and that romantic spanish music. if anything, i indirectly had something to do with my dad's musical tastes... especially when i was living in florida. my sister gave him a cd i made and i heard him bumping it in his car... as time went by, he would buy or download other artists. he really got into fsol during my stay in florida and i didn't introduce him to it. autechre was too much for him.

vamos scorcho Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 well i think you should playing them everything you got, expand their minds my dad played me all that shit growing up, movie soundtracks jazz big band classical hip hop rock etc kraftwerk then chemical brothers... he maybe wasn't a music lover, but he was cultured so i turned out to be a music lover. as soon as i heard kraftwerk and maurice ravel and chemical brothers i became obsessed so i think it's good, just play your kids everything there is and they'll be better off for it, and they'll also have the ability to follow which genres they like out of what you play, and they WILL make it clear to you what genres those are "put on kraftwerk father!!!!!!"
