Muzik Style Tree

As was enunciated in the electrobel-v2 code specifications, the muzik styles/genres will bare a recursive tree structure.

As v2 was slightly rushed, and the style/genre new structure not considered robust enough, V2 was launched with the 1.5 version of the genres/styles.

Work was still being done on this structure, and seeing the recent events in the critics of musical genre choice (which have been a polemic since the launch of the v1 site), I spent a couple of hours to finish the new tree.

New Concept:

  • Couple of Main Genres
  • Many sub-genres
  • a sub-genre can belong to more than one Genre.
  • Selecting a genre will also show all songs belonging to a subgenre.
  • Easily expandable, but admin/moderator only.

Dub:

  • roots dub
  • hard stepping dub ( british style, like zion train/power steppers, etc...)

There is 1 point I find a bit difficult, and that's indus/electro...

Because the electro I like is stuff like wumpscut/front242,...wich have indus influence and ebm,...

So maybe indus:

  • indus
  • electro indus ( or indus electro )

electro : depending on the indus tree

  • electro
  • electro -wave
  • electro-indus
  • commercial electro ( electro-house,...), but put this here or in the house tree...?

So some little overlappings, but you can be the judge ....

okay ...

"commercial" is not a musical style .. it's a state of mind :)

you can have commercial hiphop, commercial electro, commercial drum'n'bass etc..

F242 is EBM .. they invented the name of the genre ... EBM is both under electro and industrial

1/ because its both 4/4 beats and comes from techno? 2/ its all coming from ambient, no? its the start of it all imo 3/ well its beats with breaks :biggrin: 4/ the true experimental music is comparable to contemporary imo but then its only my opinion, people use too fast the word experimental

off course its just a fast draft, to discuss
