Comments
Oh it was definitely taken as a compliment! I said “apparently” because I didn’t come up with it myself.
No genre can define or hold me.
Genres are for marketing, not for musicians.
mostly psytrance / trance / melodic techno.. that’s the music i like and listen most, so i am also trying yo do it…
i like genre definitions, it helps me not just find faster new music i like but also discover completely new music from different genres .. and then combine them .. my rule of thumb is “to break from rules and definitions you first need to deeply understand them”
Boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That’s impossible. Instead… only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Boy: There is no spoon.
Neo: There is no spoon?
Boy: Then you’ll see, that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.
Experimental
I experiment with an idea/concept, develop it to see if it goes anywhere, and abandon it if it doesn't.
Then I play games, take lessons, practice, etc. until another idea/concept comes.
Glitch/noise/IDM/experimental. Lots of modulation. Sounds from outer space.

Trying to crack the Glam Metal code, but always end up sounding like something else.
goddamn
Downtempo Neuronal Shoegaze Jazz Ambient
I think musical genre are important.
They help the listener find the type of music they like. Fan of a genre will create their own sub culture.
They help the reviewer target the right music to the right people.
As a artist you don’t need to be restricted by them, unless you want to.
The one thing I don’t like is micro genre. Who need Canadian accoustic country EDM.
My first post here in Creations back in Sept 2022 attracted the comment that it was "Sci-folk ambient glitchcore". If cornered in an awkward social situation, this is what I say I do. In real life I work in IT, so baffling people is my thing. My attempts to subsequently set the world on fire with "Ninjitsu hip-hop" or "Chillhop doo wop" met with a polite but subdued response, however I'm still upbeat about what the future holds, and agree that no-one should feel constrained to do again what they've done before.
Hiphop
EDM
meditation encoded light therapy music (kasina)
And a bunch of experimental stuff that I never finish
Now that’s a genre I can identify with.
Yea I may need therapy for it
My preferences are Electronic, Jazz, Blues, even Orchestral. What I particularly like to do is listen to an original recording whether it be Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Mantovani, Ozric Tentacles, I listen to them intensely and try and create an exact mirrored recording using ,Cubasis, Novation Impulse 61 midi controller keyboard and a choice of almost 100 apps and plenty of patience 🙂
yep, that's EBM.
)
but mine is slower, 108 to 129 bpm, and probably closer to new beat because it does have acid lines.
(so i can call it „acid techno“ and be booked, because who actually cares when it's called „techno“
not yet. i play live (at some local venues), and i'm procrastinating with recording my stuff properly.
Y’all are my kinda people
Loops
Dub Techno
I listened to a Trevor Horn interview shortly after I started taking music making more seriously and he was having a moan about how most modern tracks were forgettable compared to stuff made earlier because songwriters weren’t writing enough ‘parts’ for their songs. Ever since then I’ve been writing stuff with lots of ‘parts’ but I also love experimental jams too, which sometimes become a ‘part’ in a bigger arrangement and sometimes stand on their own. It’s lofi, industrial, experimental, synth based electronics I guess
Nice! Man EBM is such a great genre of music, and there's so much variety in it. I'm glad there's at least one person out there creating it! 😃
😂 Well, fair enough. Anything on Youtube of at least one of your performances mate? 😉
Rock / metal / orchestral, but it’s a hobby and I’m just learning. Trying to use iPad apps and DAWs for sketching (no audio recordings, just MIDI)
Huh, had no idea that was on the MK soundtrack, interesting! Yah Nihil still holds up really well. Funny, back in the day amongst all the industrial and EBM acts I never thought that KMFDM would stand the test of time most for me and still be kickin out such good stuff.
Yes they were on that album. So was Orbital, Juno Reactor (they did an instrumental version of a track by Traci Lords), George S Clinton, Mutha's Day Out, etc.
The second movie Annihilation was mostly sh-t except for the soundtrack which features KMFDM, Scooter (back in the 90s when they weren't a f--king joke making hamster voices and sh-t like that), Rammstein, Juno Reactor again, BT, The Future Sound of London, etc.
(Off topic fact - would you believe I purchased the N*Sync single "Pop" when I discovered that the song was produced by BT? 🤣 )
Before I had access to the internet, a lot of my "musical discoveries" were through compilation albums and movie soundtracks. It's also how I discovered Eurodance like Sash!, Eiffel 65, Aqua, Brooklyn Bounce, Paffendorf, etc.
Man, I agree KMFDM does keep pumpin out amazing music. They haven't lost their touch. Just like the Irish Rovers continue to pump out amazing albums over 50 years since their "Unicorn" album. Just like Busta Rhymes, Snoop, T-Pain, Dre, Em, 50 and others continue to pump out amazing HipHop. Don't even get me started on Jean-Michel Jarre, because I can talk your ear off all day long about his music. And Cher? Good god, she's still got it. Best modern Christmas song I've heard in a very long time.
Anyways Gus, this lengthy reply probably explains why I like to dabble in so many various genres. I grew up listening to the aforementioned artists.
Also, Mom loved Country (back when it was still good), Doowop, some 80s Rock and Roll, Pop, Easy Listening/Adult Contemporary, Classical. Dad loved Jazz a lot, and I got my taste for Jazz from him. He also used to work ticket sales for the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and got himself, my mother and I into many concerts for free, from incredibly powerful symphonies by Mahler and Beethoven, to amazing Pops concerts. All of this contributed to my early musical upbringing and tastes in music.
All of this may seem like random babbling, but the point is this is why I create in a wide variety of genres rather than just sticking to one genre and also why I'm always seeking to try new genres. See? It ties in with the theme of this thread afterall.
Ahh yah right right, genre... Hmm, well I started making Amiga mods using trackers in the 80s, which was more or less a genre in and of itself, given the tech limits and the lack of sound libraries etc. I suppose the first genre I claimed to be doing music in was industrial in the 90s, then it was drum and bass inspired something something and eventually I just realized I am terrible at and terribly uninterested in genre. I admire folks who do well with it and at times I tried to play around in genres but it always felt too much like playing a sport. Ahh? Calvinball! Hmmm. Although looks like in Calvinball you cant do the same thing twice and I repeat myself all the time. Generic I guess.
All sorts. Well, quite the variety anyway. I use a PC and an iPad. Guitars and bass and amp and cab, vocal microphones, and an assortment of other instruments and gear. Plus a mix of free and paid software on Windows and iOS.
You made Industrial mate?!
That's wicked cool. So is using a tracker. You ever fancied giving the M8 by Dirtywave a go?
DnB is a genre I've never tried before. I may dig in and listen to some DnB and try my hand at it. (Now to find a proper breakbeat to chop up! I must decide - try it in Koala or the Op-1f? 😂 )
Do you have a Soundcloud mate? I forgot if I'm following you or not.
Well, I called it industrial. I mean I did go through a noisy clangy phase, but I suppose it was, maybe not. Stuff like FLA, Frontline, Ministry etc. That would have been in the 90s, then I got inspired by Download, Orbital, Orb, FSOL, B12 etc
Never heard of it but I did get into Renoise a tiny bit. I mainly use Maschine, Samplitude on PC and on iOS Gadget, Endlesss and the Drummer apps. Sadly I find it best to bail on AUV3. Tired of loading old sessions and having them sound wrong from plugin updates etc. I just seem unlucky in that department. I like loading stuff from years ago and expanding on them. But yah the past year and a bit though I have been drowning in AI related work, since that exploded, sigh. Sadly music was backburnered a lot.
I don't have a Soundcloud but may share something here over the next few weeks as I have Xmas break and am jonesing for a music binge! Op1 eh? Nice! I will have to catch up on the creations section as I really have been neglecting the olde hobby/passion, sigh. Hmm, but yah maybe with your breadth of genre exposure you can describe to me where I fit, heh
