Let's, see, what do you like? Punk, post-punk mostly. What are connected to those? Early rock, rockabilly, 60s/70s soul and funk right?, 60s/70s art rock, alt rock. What else do you listen to?

Krautrock is probably contained within 60s/70s art rock and most definitely 70s punk approved. I know I first heard about it reading a punk rock book. And what early electronics? Cause my punk rock-approved alarm bells are tingling. If you say Kraftwerk I'll be forced to send you a letter bomb.

I doubt you came to post-punk via Gene Vincent and Can. I imagine you came to them via a trickle down effect that you policed 1984 style.

from where I'm standing at least, and I don't even think "narrow tastes" is a big deal, as I've said before I'll take a master of one over master of none

Savages - Five Finger Discount (2008) is my favorite fully electronic release
If you'd arrived at a more limited taste through many years of experimentation like MicShazam then I'd not have much to say beyond the odd heckle, but you seem to have narrowed your taste intentionally to fit a niche you want to embody.

Everything about the way you present yourself suggests this, but if I'm wrong then it's the world's most boring coincidence.
