Also, as a side note, just because you like a certain type of music doesn't always mean you have to play it. You may really like Sonic Youth, but if everything you play sounds like Peter Paul & Mary, than that's your style. You can fake SY all you like, and it may even sound good, but your musical soul won't get the full release it needs until you let yourself get down and dirty, pouring out whatever flows through your fingertips.

i agree, what we like the best and what we are best at doing are often not the same thing. it's important to learn to differentiate, otherwise you'll probably just make something that is competant but derivative.
