The document discusses four music genres: hip-hop, dance (EDM), classical, and the author's chosen genre of dance (EDM). For hip-hop, the author likes that the music gets stuck in your head but dislikes that all songs sound the same. For dance (EDM), the author likes that it puts them in a party mood but dislikes that some songs have the same beat. For classical, the author likes that it is traditional but finds it boring and dull. The author chooses dance (EDM) as their favorite genre because they prefer listening to it and want to learn more about it compared to other genres like bhangra.
