    One genre per letter, ya'll.
    And this is not meant to be an exhaustive list... I went for the genres I thought would fit well together in a song, so a few important ones didn't make the cut.

      Great idea. With so much genre bending these days, it's easy to get muddied down with adjectives. Knowing the essentials helps with sorting, but when studying styles/ history or even making playlists, simple is the best way to go.

      I mean, he skipped a lot of primary electronic genres in favor of some very niche genres to keep in a relative bpm band. Example: zouk isn't even specifically electronic, a lot just happens to be electronic now.

      @jaisaqui 7 років тому +23

      If he change tempo every 4 or 8 bars, there will be no coherence on the song. He sacrificed the tempo of some genres to make sense. Is a song with elements of 26 sub-genres of electronic music, not a 26 songs mashed together.

    • @WebMint_
      @WebMint_ 6 років тому

      ASDRION TM Well, true. There has also been a type called ambient-trance which was around way back in the early 90s with classic trance. It's like psybient's predecessor. I could list all the trance genres but there's just so many that I might as well do it another time. Psycore! I'm gonna go and check that out ;)

    • @joaoscremin

    • @HugoHakvoort
      @HugoHakvoort 6 років тому +2

      You can still find that early 90s inspired trance labeled as techno nowadays! And ofcourse proper psytrance also has that trance effect.

    • @t.kahraba763
      @t.kahraba763 6 років тому +1

      ASDRION TM psydub/chill doesnt really count as trance, its downtempo psychedelic music pretty much. Trance is usually fast starting at 135 beats per minute

      ConnorZ what is the difference

    • @helostcontroll
      @helostcontroll 7 років тому +28

      dubstep is basically a 2step (it's an UK genre) pattern with a bassline (mostly sub bass) on it. It appeared when 2step and jugle producers started to make their 2step tunes more sub-bass oriented and took off all the stupid lyrics they where putting on them at the time.
      some examples are:
      horsepower productions - fat larry's skank
      el-b - amazon
      skream - midnight request line
      benga & coki - night
      digital mystikz - anti war dub
      brostep is basically the "kick on the 1st beat and snare on the 3rd beat" drum pattern which started to grow in uk dubstep in like 2005 or 06, mixed with strong bassline but this time more "mid frequencies" oriented, and not so much sub bass.
      some early examples are probably
      rusko - cockney thug
      caspa & the others - well'ard
      coki - spongebob
      tc - where's my money (caspa remix) -> probably the first "true brostep" tune
      but then it grew up to be what skrillex, zomboy, excision, datsik, 12th planet, etc. are currently making
      it came to mainstream with skrillex's Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites EP release

    • @HumanoidMachine
      @HumanoidMachine 7 років тому +9

      You're not wrong. People are still referring to Brostep as dubstep. Since Brostep is so controversial in the scene, it's only natural to differentiate it from Dubstep...especially when they don't sound that much alike.

      Hw create one melody and try to make it to all genres. It's a challenge.

    There's a genre call quiet storm? I'm definitely going to check that out.
    I'm enjoying all of these though, even if I think the some of them are not very good representations of their genre.

      MIHAI VITEAZUL It's all one song, not multiple songs mixed together. Hence the same melody throughout and stuff like that. :)

    The best for me is electro dance, idm, lounge, melbourne bounce, outsider house, progressive house, quiet storm, and trap
