Music is the best! While no music specifically puts me in a little head space, if it's music I like or at least I think it sounds interesting then it'll make me feel pretty good on the whole and get my juices flowing.

Well this is probably going to sound weird but I find that songs from MLP or the Lion King make me feel little when I listen to them.
I do totally agree with this. I'm a Brony, but don't listen to too much MLP music (however I got lots of music made by members of the Brony community, WoodenToaster, The Living Tombstone, Archie, JayB, etc.). However I also love The Lion King as well and do enjoy a few songs from them. The ones I can think of off the top of my head are

and

I also agree with CuddleFish too. These are songs designed to have children as the primary audience. It'd make much more sense for these songs to invoke a feeling of regression than compared with "normal" songs, lol.

I don't think I can say music makes me feel little cause I have a bit of a passion for music and no matter what I am doing music is playing 99% of the time. I also want to try my hand at making/composing music as well. Music to me is one of the best things man has ever come up with.
I'm the same way. I love music and have it going at least 90% of the time and want to start composing some myself. I actually just started getting involved with it about two to four months ago and it's
SOOOOOOOO freaking fun. Personally, I love digitally creating art (both audio and visual). Of course the sound and sight of a someone performing and whaling on an instrument live is freaking awesome. However thanks to midi, I can make a beat with a whole string quartette, an acoustic guitar, an electric guitar, some trumpets, and a few synths all without being to play any of these instruments myself(I use to play the trumpet a little but that was a good while ago).
Anyway, if you haven't already, go and download Audacity
http://www.audacityteam.org/ right now. It's a free/open-source Digital Audio Workstation (a.k.a. a DAW - Pro Tools, FL Studio, Ableton are all different DAWs) that has some legitimately good features and is pretty stable, especially considering it's free. If you want some more info and/or BS it about music, feel free to PM me.

I like just about every type of music except for country and most newer rap. However I try to stay open minded and give any song a chance, even if it is from a genre I typically don't enjoy. When I was younger and growing up I was really into rock, folk/bluegrass, reggae, and rap. They were all well before my time, but I grew up listening to The Beatles, The Who, Bob Dylan, Jurassic 5, Atmosphere, Andre Nickatina, and Mac Dre to name a few.
I listen to a lot of EDM now (and
NO, EDM is
NOT just dubstep). Drum n Bass/Liquid DnB, and House are probably my preferred genres. Deadmau5 is cool, and just about everything the record label Monstercat releases is damn near gold for the most part IMO. As mentioned before, there are some artists from the Brony community that I really like too such as Glaze/WoodenToaster, The Living Tombstone, Phage/Ink Pony, and Alex S (plus many others).
Here's an awesome remix done by Phage that I think is one of the best liquid DnB songs ever made. I mean the drum loop in it is orgasmic ->

And here's some music by WoodenToaster. Kinda a big deal within the brony community, lol. Seriously though, he's got some talent. Here are a plethora of songs he does that are pretty freakin great.
