I'm looking for music.
Recordings or performers.
Maybe instruments.
That is assuming I can learn. I think most of the instruments here are primarily inspired by humans.
Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.

Something to pass the time when it isn't just work.

Any particular kind of music? It's a wide category, and the lack of specifics means you could end up with a sample of caterwauling of the native population of PSR B1620-26 b - which while considered to be the highest form of art and verbal communication on their planet - tends to rupture the eardrums of most organic species. ( Pause. ) Er, not that you're likely to find such a thing here.

I enjoy most kinds of music.
Though if it bursts eardrums I should probably just listen to it on my own.
Do you have any favorites?

I do, actually. It's-- ( She taps a rhythm out on the console, something upbeat and quick before humming the melody for a second or two. It's her best attempt at the Cybertronian version of this. ) hard to replicate, although I've heard something similar to it here during the festival. But the more upbeat and lively a song is, the more I like it - ballads have their place but they don't really set the mood for getting work done or enjoying a good book.

Thank you.
That was very pleasant. I think I've heard similar to this kind of rhythm before.
I like listening to something softer when I'm arranging reports, but for casual listening most anything goes.

There are some trends in music that will appear again and again throughout the galaxy, particularly among similar species or sectors. I've read a few treatises on the theories behind it, but nothing that offers substantial evidence to support their conclusions - just speculation.
