Haywood Stoeger 20.04.2013 | post dubstep is actually a genre in reaction to how agressive dubstep became in my opinion it's more a concept than a genre. For me artists such as SBTRKT,James Blake,Flying Lotus and all warp artists are "post-dubstep". |
Darla Tolliver 19.04.2013 | This is my first post here. Thought it was appropriate |
Janyce Henningson 19.04.2013 | "Mongolian 8-bit chipmunk" is the latest category on Beatport - interesting.... |
Edwardo Rothenberger 19.04.2013 | If you take Genres to their enth degree, you end up with everything sounding the same, which is shit and boxes in artists and leaves less room to experiment. One thing I'm glad of is that within Deep House there is quite a variation. Tech House can be quite samey between tracks. Electro is just an abomination and seems to bear no relation to the original Electro, which had some phenomenal tracks. |
Neil Kenig 19.04.2013 | What is a "Dubtronica"? |

Joetta Zhuk 18.04.2013 | Here is a house track (or is it deep or tech house?) on how ridiculous these genre discussions actually are. |

nayit ruiz jaramillo 16.04.2013 | The only "Post" genre that was ever acceptable was "Post Punk". A whole slew of bands came around, born from punk but sounding modern and more directional. They were bands formed during punk but took it in a genuinely new direction. No genre name ever really summed it up as well as "Post Punk" did. It wasn't Nu-Punk cus it was different to punk but it was related to punk. Bands such as Killing Joke, PiL, The Cure (early). Then bands such as Bauhaus and later The Sisters Of Mercy came along and the term Goth was coined and that was that. I fucking hate the name Goth. The more you know. |

Matt Kane 16.04.2013 | the term "post" is way to mainstream. me being a hip boy gonna go with "pre-" from now on! because it was there before it was cool! |
Luciano Hyppolite 16.04.2013 | I heard some awesome things about this new genre called Nu Under Hipnotic Toad Main Room Glitch Technopsytrap! However, its so 2014 that you may not have heard of it yet. |

Jetta Drenzek 16.04.2013 | Neo new wave... So we just skipped Neo wave completely? What happens when Nu-Neo New Rave becomes Old Skool Nu-Neo New Rave? Though without doubt my favourite has to be "slow/fast" Whoever came up with that must have been splitting their sides at getting paid for such a name How VAGUE can a genre be? That's like calling a genre "some sounds played together". 36701089.jpg Beatport are so two years ago anyway, I'm currently riding the rising wave of Underwater Egyptian-hop Jazztronicacore, some big names coming up like Imhotep?Noshehotep! and PiPiPiPikkiRikkiTikkiTembo. Watch this space! |
Lauretta Ehrhorn 16.04.2013 | Genres are useless unless you want to stick to a narrow niche 2 categories for me. 1 - Music I like 2 - Music to DJ with. Music that falls into both categories generally makes playlists. |
nayit ruiz jaramillo 16.04.2013 | Hah ok. Nuff said. |
