    Genres are a mess and no one knows what to do about it

    Genres have ALWAYS been a marketing tool. For artists, labels, music journalists, etc. If you aren't part of a new genre you likely aren't part of a new chapter of music history either. This is all musical darwinism anyway. As soon as something becomes stale it must evolve, get newer attributes...

    Genres are a mess and no one knows what to do about it

    Spotify and EveryNoise which directly fits in with it puts us in a unique position were technology can really catch up with listening habits and world wide genre representation which frankly does exist. Dutch Indie Rock and Swedish Pop/Rock has its own representation through this and now there...

    Dark Progressive House

    Making one more thread here today with a set/playlist I've been working on. This one for Dark Progressive House.

It goes into as much details as i could find. 8th Note Prog was pioneered by deadmau5 in his earliest key tracks, brought to commercial success by...

    Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music (old)

    There's some good info in there but as stated by y'all his tone, ego, and humor really don't do the site justice. It really detracts from being informational. But its pretty, there's some useful observations, and he notices some stuff that others don't. A mixed bag.

    Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music (old)

    Sadly he had a poor attitude to a lot of genres then and its even worse now. He makes a poor spokesman for Electronic music when he hates so much of it. He knows enough to learn from but screws up enough that you can't believe a lot of his conclusions. The worst part is he should never be seen...
