EDM in Kpop: Subgenres and examples
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- I made this video in an attempt to educate kpop fans a little more about the different subgenres of EDM or Electronic Dance Music. As the disclaimer says, I'm not an expert and some may not be 100% accurate.
I also made this so kpop fans would realize that some songs are not being "plagiarized" when they share some sounds, beats or rythms with other songs. Sometimes they just happen to be of the same genre/subgenre.
PLEASE READ!!
Okay, after reviewing some of the songs and reading people's comments, I realized that I made some mistakes:
1. MIROH by Stray Kids is FUTURE BOUNCE.
2. FLASH by X1 is FUTURE HOUSE/FUTURE BASS.
I overall failed to exemplify ELECTRO HOUSE (except for FLASHBACK by After School). Some other good examples of this genre would be I AM THE BEST by 2NE1 or FANTASTIC BABY by Big Bang.
an intellectual who knows ACE
Is Thanks by seventeen electro house?
@@jadennarvios i think it's future bass, maybe?
@@anggraramadhani166 what sub group does "Feel Special" belongs?
@@junmyeon4110 between future house or future bounce, idk that music look like future house genre but there's a future bounce bass too
Basically kard's songs are mostly moobathoon and tropical house
Its moombahton lol
You should check out their recent comeback! :) Idk what genre it would classify as but its really different then their other tts edit: after watching the vid in its entirely I think their recent comeback would be classified as "trap"
moobathoon lmao
@@nothx6420 basically trap
@@pawni1283 Moombahton with tropical house elements hmmm
Hardstyle: exists
A.C.E: it's free real state
Hardstyle is da shit😍 I'm glad ACE did it, I just wish hardstyle was more popular in the Kpop scenery 😫
@@ThEkAtEsTrEeT should be as other genres are generic
@@ThEkAtEsTrEeT that's impossible, cuz knetz don't really like edm
@@dazzlingwrld6504 I am aware that knetz do not appreciate EDM. But that doesn't mean it's impossible, since it has already been done. But surely it won't happen anymore or anytime soon. Was just saying that "I wish it was..."
STAN A.C.E
so i'm into edm and i didn't even notice-
A Hyeong ha, me too
Same
Same lol
A Hyeong same
kpop is basically edm
edm is a genius genre of music. there's so many types of it and ya can portray many emotions with it.
But the no lyric chorus trend is kinda of getting boring though, and sometimes the background music just sounds the same
EDM is not a gente, it's a term used to refer to electronic dance music.
@@niczvr electronic dance music is a broad range of genres just like everything that happens to fall under the k-pop term :p
Hell no, I produce edm and you can’t really portray a lot of emotion. The main goal is to make electronic DANCE music, no matter how sad the build up feels, you still need to make the drop dancy. That’s the nature of edm, I have yet to see a edm song that’s truly sad.
@@TheJuan9-11 yeah but like there's a
chill edm like tropical house, future bass, etc. not to mention future bass and deep house sometimes can also be emotional
kard literally owns moombahton at this point ngl
kirboy that and tropical house really be the only genre they do that’s why
am I the only one who thinks side effects sounds like a geometry dash beat
deadlocked
Hahaha thats what i always say !
Demon Level
• dramahannah2 • Omg me when I first heard it
That's called psytrance xD
I think Violeta is a mix between tropical and future house if that possible 🤔
More Future House than Tropical House , I think
I think it's more tropical when you compare it to other future house songs
It's both actually.
Nah not future house
idk if it was mentioned in this video but the elements besides tropical house is deep house I think
I love that this exists, I hate when I say my favorite genre is EDM and people assume I like dubstep or really hard-hitting electric bass when there are so many different sub-genres! These kinds of videos also let me find other groups that have styles I like so well done! It would be cool to see these same genre analysis videos for other stuff like ballads.
that is actually mostly because EDM fans don't consider radio EDM songs EDM. to them it's just pop.
@Sketer dubstep just sometimes hurt my ears man lmao i prefer tropical house, future bass, progressive house, or deep house
I realised that i LOVE Future House/Future Bounce 😍
- Stray Kids MIROH
- Seventeen HIT
- X1 Flash (kinda Future house)
- Pentagon SHA LA LA
MIROH more like Future Bounce
Future Bounce is like upgraded version of Future House , sounds pretty similiar but actually different
Bass in the Future Bounce drop more bouncing than bass in Future House
@@andrewliu1015 oh i see. I think its also future house though because of the drum patterns. Definitely got future bounce elements with the bouncing bassline, you are right.
Don't forget Hellevator and Voices
@@supersucks they are future bass
@HyunMi _Minnie whats the difference between electro House and future house please explain thanks.
well apparently im a huge fan of house music no matter the type
Omg same house music is godly to my ears
Me too
Same here
Well...House had a lot of subgenres
YOU LITERALLY FORGOT ABOUT THE QUEENS OF DEEP HOUSE GWSN
SM are kings of deep house
I’ve been telling fans that k-pop wasn’t so much a genre itself but other genres and they would ignore and say EDM is trash. I’m really glad this video was made because now some know.
Haha xD They Fked up Thier minds xD
Stray Kids - Side Effects, Psytrance?
yup
Joshua Alto another one of my fav psytrances is silent night by dreamcatcher idk if they included it tho
@@AshtonLemonade Yes!!!
@@AshtonLemonade same!!
yes or like complextro idk
My favorite future bass : Red Velvet - I Just
same
Same
Same
Same
Same that song is underrated
ugggh i love kpop edm so much it makes me alive while the others hate it bcs it’s “noisy” :((
*Sorry, I made a mistake. At **4:23**, should be Now or *Never*
That’s ok
@Autum Blink 4walls and Now or Never are future house. Most of the songs do not belong to only one genre, I made that clear in my disclaimer, and yes, I think I got X1 wrong, it's most likely a mix between future house and future bass.
Do you know what sub genres are Lower, Heartbeat and Wave by Amber and Electric by SHINee?
Monsta x songs with future bass EDM :
- Shine Forever
- Jealousy
- Mohae
T-ARA are the QUEENS of EDM in KPOP
I think afterschool
Facts
Dreamcatcher and Loona are the princesses
A literal crime not having any GWSN song under deep or future house 😔✊
Edm: exists
Stray Kids: It’s free real estate
I'm into western EDM back then but I'm into KPop now. but I realized it's still EDM yeah I'm an EDM guy
Heey i hv kpop edm song recommendations that is
3EYE out of my mind and do ma thing, please listen to them! 😉
Blue- Chan yesss
YASS 3YEEEE OMG STAN
yEEEEEs I just started stanning them today and I'm happyyy
Deep house is my absolute favourite! :O
Yassss and big room
Omg my best subgenre!!
And now I can confirm im into EDM since Sugarfree existed
Man f(x) and SHINEE were ahead of their time. They were one of the first kpop groups to do edm
Ah yes, the best way to introduce a video about edm in kpop, Sugar Free
kill this love couldve been a great trap song if the drop didnt suck lmao
Alpha Thot i liked it 🥺
true
it just doesn’t build up because the entire has that loud bass
Quite good, but maybe it needs tempo increase. A bit slow tbh.
true tho, the brass is kind of so-so
Thank you for including so many older songs too! Hate, Catch Me, 4 Walls, Flashback, and Free Somebody are some of my absolute favorite kpop songs of all time 🥰
it all depends on the beat and if it goes well with the vocal melody for me. sometimes the beat repeats itself too much or overpowers the melody and sometimes its that perfect mix of vocal and bass that just creates a perfect song. like kard dont recall (wasnt in here) or izone fiesta. i always thought i hated edm but i just didnt find songs that fit in that perfect ratio. i feel like other people who say that also havent found the right songs.
My favs one are Dubstep, Hardstyle and Psytrance
Guess i like the extremer stuff haha
I like the same thing,I also like Trap, Big Room and Future Bass
this is super useful! im trying to learn the edm subgenres, and when i dont know the song, the classifications are kinda confusing, but knowing almost all these songs/artists, its much easier to understand, thank you!
*those Trap examples are Accurate AF*
Finally, another cultured EDM lover!! The ones you picked are pretty much spot on, and I was genuinely impressed! From one K-pop and EDM fan to another, keep being awesome~
thanks! ❤
@@fearlesscult7086 Np, mate. I enjoy meeting a fellow fan~ ^-^
How are u doing to recognize which type of EDM is it- Even if i tried it literally sound same to me
I suggest you watch the video "Guide to new electronic dance music genres" on youtube
For me I've listened to a lot of Electronic Music so when I entered K-pop I already know how to identify each genre-- it's something I can't really explain well lol I suggest watching guides in identifying stuff like this here on YT as well 😅
usually the types of synths and bases differentiate them, also the sometimes the tempo, some r like fast and energetic while others are more calm and chill
My main advise when trying to figure out a song's genre is: listen to the drums and rhythm section.
And then you can pay attention to other instruments because, yes, it's usually a matter of tempo (speed) and also the use of certain synths, samplers, sound effects, etc.
Some examples if you feel like watching this video again:
-Listen to the drum pattern in the Moombahton songs. It's the same as the "riddim" in Reggaetón music. For reference: listen to the drum beat in Reggaetón songs like "No Me Conoce (Remix)" by Jhay Cortez or "Ginza" by J Balvin and then listen to Moombathon songs like the ones by KARD in this video or "Latata" by (G)I-dle, "Blood Sweat & Tears" by BTS, etc.
-Same goes for Trap: it uses the beats you'll find in Trap Rap songs (those relatively "soft" but intense hi hats that sound like they've been "chopped" very quickly). In this case you can listen to the drums in "F&N" by Future or "Bodak Yellow" by Cardi B. Trap EDM essentially took that specific Trap beat and then gave it the rave treatment.
-Deep House and most House subgenres rely on the typical "oontz oontz oontz oontz" 4/4 beat pattern (kick drum + hi hats) and that's usually the main giveaway when you try to identify House music in general. Deep House tends to have a warm, spacey sound and the best examples for me are "Can You Feel It?" by Fingers Inc. or "Midtown 120 Blues" by DJ Sprinkles.
-The main thing that sets Tropical House apart from the others is the addition of a synthetic "pan flute" melody in most of the songs. That's a prominent feature in the chorus of Iz*One's "Violeta", for example, and you'll also find it in "Save Me" by BTS, "Playing with Fire" by Blackpink, and countless other examples like the ones in this vid. Sometimes these are combined with other genres but that one detail will make them recognizable.
I could go on but maybe this is a solid start : ) For now I'll repeat what I said at the beginning: always listen to the DRUMS because they can reveal all the key ingredients (like tempo/speed and what type of tools and software were used).
Maybe its heard more like fresh vibe of edm?
Thank you for this video! I realize that I am really into EDM.
PS: stan KARD
I dooo
@@narcisa6160 an intellectual you are
@@kapybarasmaze yo English is not my first language so could you please explain to me what an intellectual is?? 😂😂😁
@@narcisa6160 Intellectual is a person who is intelligent (it is not the exact definition but it means the same)
A.C.E is officially invited to Defqon 1
so I'm into future bass and tropical house and I didn't even notice lmao
A lot of songs these days are edm. It's a magical genre.
What genre is Egoist by Olivia Hye?
egoist is future bass!!!
@@alana8280 Thank you!!!
Are you orbit?
@@of131 I think so?
Basically all songs of Stray Kids are in edm form. It's actually SKZ in a nutshell hahahaha
what subgenre would be unb - feeling and oneus - valkyrie?
i’m honestly not sure but the only one valkyrie seems to fit in is deep house
as for feeling i think it’s electro house but again, i’m not an expert on this
Both would be Electro House. Unlike deep house, the beats aren't dependent on the bass. Electro House has more mini subgenres including Big Room and Compexo (Shinee-"Everybody"
I know every song in this video!
Stan EDM and KPOP!!
Can we talk about how 4minute hate is so fucking good until the chorus fucks you up
mamamoo - starry night : CHILL HOUSE
Lol, I think it would fall into indie.
Stray Kids - Miroh must be Future Bounce. It's really sounds like Brooks Style.
I love Big Room, Tropical House and Trap!
And Electro House too
asjdjejd i just realized after this video that most of the songs i listen to r edm
butterfly by loona is one of the best realized of this century FIGHT ME
+ lemme add euphoria in the future bass category
IMHO , I think
1. Violeta is Future House
2. MIROH is Future Bounce
Both are very similar as the have a bouncy bassline. The difference is the gritty lead synth in MIROH and the squeakier lead synth in VIOLETA
Both are future house
violeta is actually future house+tropical house =)
Miroh is future bounce
Future Bounce is actually a subgenre of Future house. It's tempo/time signature is just more prevalent, creating the "bounce" feeling.
Really Really is somehow very nostalgic to me.
i still think trap should not be put under edm, when baesd on where was created the music inself and the categorys where all those songs chart, besides that gj i really liked your video :)
Nice video!
Btw, Superhuman isnt bass house. It's sounds more like complextro/Electro.
T-ARA, THE EDM QUEENS
Jeon Won Diary 🥺❤️
I love moombahton, big room, trap, and future bass. I'm addicted~
What the heck?! I love every house's type and I didnt know
U forgot hellevator in future bass
They don't include all examples of each subgenre so...
As EDM freak and KPop nerd ... This is what I called ... Superb
i love how all my fave song are here but i hate it when i didn't notice that i'm into edm.
OMG Thank u sooo much 4 making this! Is helping me a lot for making dance mixes
can anyone make a spotify playlist out of all of these songs ?😁
i have one for apple music 😫
THANK YOU for including Catch Me!
Trap style is so FIREE 🔥🔥🔥
this is my favorite 💕
I love edm sm like omgggg 😭😭
Miroh is more future bounce than electro house but great comp overall
Future bass and trap are all just 👌🏾😘👩🏾🍳
Thank you for make this video !!
thank you for watching ^^
Future Bass and Tropical House my favs so far Also Electro House maybe
I've always like future bass (also jpop kawaii bass) because my sister would play her songs out loud and I've also always liked that iconic "tropical sound" (now I know the genre's name lol)
5:48 X1 flash is a mixture of melodic dubstep and future bass
pretty spot on!!! except i wouldnt classify flash as future house? it’s more future bass-ish
yes, I overall got Electro House wrong. It's on my fix comment.
Plz make more Videos like that !
A.c.e are just sooo uniqe. Its hard tl find talented people that can dance to hardstyle like that
deep house and future house/future bass is my thing ig from this video
I realised I love love love deep house, I've always been attracted to this type, my second favourite would be future house and tropical house💜🔥
I like all the houses 😆
hardstyle for life 🙌
if anybody wants to know the type of edm in a song just comment in my comment. I'm not a producer but i am a really big EDM fan and i've been that for years.
Guess I like EDM, I didn't knew lol
what edm sub genre would seventeen's lilili yabbay fall under?
T-ARA Queens of Electro K-pop!
thanks for this 💜
The most songs are in Wrong genre Like The song stray kids Is future house/bounce not electro House but dude Love your Effort in making of this video Let More people Know EDM
thanks, but I don't think most songs are in the wrong genre, I believe only Stray Kids' Miroh and X1's Flash are wrong and I made that clear on my pinned comment.
Big Room is imo the least-good out of the subgenres right next to Trap and Melbourne Bounce which are both very hit or miss
I just found out that i love future bass😂
So, i think i really like "house" type in EDM, anyone
Violeta is a masterpiece
Hi, just wondering, what do you think Moon by Everglow is? Also, what about Heartbreak Terminal by OnlyOneOf?
I think "Moon" sounds like Deep House
Stray Kids - Miroh is furure bounce
No i dont think so
I think so
i love future bass and tropical house ahhhhh
Hey what genre would blackpink don't know what to do come under?
I think adios should be trap too xd
the verses are trap but the beat drop isn't
anyone know what is stray kids maze of memories sub-genre?
I don't think is edm
but maze of memories is not edm
yOu'Re oLd aNd yOu hAvE nO fRiEnDs so what is it
@@heyu989 what genre is it then
idk, but «maze of memories» is definitely NOT edm. maybe, hip hop
I saw someone call boombayah electro house
Why do I feel like every song that is EDM but doesn’t sound like “This is trying to be EDM” is house. Like everything is house
Do you guys know what sub genre punk right now by Hyoyeon is? And Move by Taemin?
Punk Right Now is electro house, Move might be future house.
move by taemin is chillwave
I just realized that I love EDM too much
