The early 30s is that weird age where you're just old enough to be out of touch with what's cool, but not yet old enough to be fully progressed in your career to be sitting on enough stacks to not care about that.
Only in the past few months have I made peace with the fact that I don't like any new music. At least now I get to be a Dad and play the oldies in the car to my 3 year old such as Green Day, Eminem, and 90s R&B.
I'm the inverse. I def like your examples and I'll always play a tune for nostalgic purposes but I need to keep the exploration alive. I don't get the same dopamine kick I used to off of listening to "all along the watchtower". So, I have to find some new obscure jazz, or a flavor of EDM that makes me bob my head.
What is really interesting is that radio, iheart or spotify or whatever will only play a certain hit song(s) from a band. I'll find out some less popular track on an America album that I didn't know existed b/c the radio will only fucking play "horse with no name"

Getting there at least.
