>>61176688
Yes, art music.
>>61176688
Art music—also known as formal music, serious music, erudite music, or legitimate music (sometimes shortened to legit music) —is an umbrella term that refers to musical traditions, implying advanced structural and theoretical considerations and a written musical tradition.

Bach, Beethoven, Mozart the list goes on...

>>61176679
>electronica/hip-hop in the same category
Why? And why electronicA when electronic is the right term?
>>61176725
Electronic means ALL music made electronically, electronica is more specific which includes the dance music with rapping made electronically called hip hop.
>>61176697
I thought you were b8ing but then I checked the wikipedia entry. It was actually legit.

Electronica is a marketing term from the US to categorize stuff like Moby, The Chemical Brothers, Madonna, etc. Electronic music is the right term.
>>61176765
Which is what this does. Those artists are all electronica be it techno, house, electropop etc
Electronic means everything made with electronic instruments from Stockhausen to Deadmau5, Merzbow to Chvrches. They are covered with different umbrellas like electroaousmatic.
what the fuck is art music? I am not trolling
>>61176765
Electronic music is not a genre though, it's a grouping.
Then again so is art music.
>>61176786
Because art music isn't the biggest fucking umbrella in music
>>61176799
more just like a pointless combination of words
"art music"
I mean what
>>61176787
It's what ponces use to describe classical music basically
>>61176787
use wikipedia
>>61176799
but this is /mu/, do you really think there is any point separating them more here?
>>61176814
use wikipedia
>>61176787
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_music
The proper name for what people call "classical" but which also encompasses more modern, experimental music which doesn't fall into the popular music category.
>>61176814
It's really just used as a pretentious anti-popular-music term
"Art music—also known as formal music,[1] serious music,[2] erudite music,[3] or legitimate music[4][5] (sometimes shortened to legit music)"
>all these people who have never heard the term art music before
holy fucking newfriends
>>61176837
I listen to a lot of art music but seriously, calling it "serious", "erudite" or "legitimate" music is the dumbest shit I've ever heard.
>>61176679
This poll is hilarious,
Art music is the only real kind of music, other genres should just be called "audio entertainment" or something similar. I mean you wouldn't consider listening to somebody tell a joke as art, so why would a pop song be considered art.
>>61176831
art music is as generic and broad as classical music. doesn't work either way for me. just call it traditional royal european music
>>61176915
Pop music can still be art, but it isn't its inherent purpose. First and foremost it is entertainment, but that doesn't mean it should be completely discarded as meaningless fluff.
>>61176928
What the fuck are you talking about. Classical music is art music made during the classical period, between the baroque and romantic periods. It's not a broad definition at all.
>>61176952
>Classical music is art music made during the classical period,
You're a fucking idiot. You don't know what you're talking about.

You managed to come up with an even stupider and more ignorant name, good job.
>>61176995
It's not specific but at least it doesn't put that one kind of music above all (implying it is the bases of -all- good music) and puts it in the same position of all the fine, erudite, "art" music being done worldwide at the time. People love the term classical because they are bigots that don't listen to much else.
>>61176967
The reason people in the field of music prefer the term art music is because the term classical music, while colloquially meaning the same thing, is very unspecific. When you say "classical music", do you mean art music, or do you mean classical era music? Do you mean art music as a whole, or just from the baroque to modern era? What does modern classical mean? Does it mean modern art music, or modern art music made with classical era ideals?
Using the term Classical music become very muddled and that's why people prefer the term "art-music" because it's much more specific, and you don't have to clarify anything when you're talking about actuall classical era music.
>>61177055
>It's not specific
Because it's straight up wrong and ignorant. It's like saying all hip hop should be called "black music".
>>61177061
Also, there's a reason it's called classical, it's because its ideals were based around actual classical greek art and architecture, so calling romantic era music classical is completely wrong because they deliberately got rid of those rigid ideals.
>>61177093
>classical
Music in the classical era is called "classicist music", not classical.
>>61177118
There is a term that I reluctantly tend to agree and that is "fine music". I know it makes the music seem objectively better but it does help specify it since there was a very specific kind of music that were being taught and produced within the "professionals/erudites" of any given time.
>>61176679
shit poll. voted noise, but still, shit poll.
>>61177118
Maybe by a very small minority.
>only one vote for acousmatic
you guys are gay
There is literally nothing wrong with the term art music.
There is literally nothing wrong with the term electronica.
Hip hop is dance music made electronically.
>no metal
>>61178097
It goes under rock obviously.
>>61177449
Electronica is a buzzword used greatly in the 90s to mischaracterize and commercially profit off of many very different electronic genres of music.
>>61178121
And? It covers those well.
It works perfectly for all EDM, IDM, downtempo, techno, house, hip hop, breaks, big beat, etc etc.
>>61176697
>legitimate music
As opposed to illegitimate music? Fuck off faggot.
>>61178152
No it doesn't. You can't just homogenize such vastly different styles of music with different origins, scenes, songwriting techniques, work ethics and aesthetics. EDM is the same kind of destructive blanket term as electronica, only it's for the new generation. And instead of trying to encapsulate shitty big beat and prog house, it tries to encapsulate shitty electro house and trap. Calling it electronica is an insult. It's like calling all music with singers "mouth music"
>>61178195
>reading into things
>>61178220
You don't have to read into it to find its the most pretentious term on the planet.
Art music is just boring alt rock made by pretentious people, for pretentious people. You never hear "art jazz" or "art funk" because they'd rather people focus on the quality of the music without jerking their little dicks off over how enlightened they are.
>>61178203
Yet most here happily use the term electronic music which covers all those AND styles of art music, electroacousmatic, hip hop, pop, onkyo, EAI and all others with electronic instruments.
As an umbrella term it is far more acceptable and specific.
>>61178237
Art music is classical, nothing to do with rock at all.
>>61178265
Most here are dilettante idiots and you know it.
>>61178273
You think classical music would be leading in the polls? When people say art music they think of douches like Eno and Albini and that's why it's winning the poll because they appeal to insecure people who want to think they're better than everyone.
Whats the difference between ''folk music'' and ''contemporary folk''?

You're not one of those retards who thinks hip hop isn't just another kind of electronic dance music from reddit are you
>>61178318
Just because that's the impression you get doesn't mean everybody else does too.
>Art music
Im dying xd
>>61178436
you're one of those retards who think that all electronic music is the same from /prog/ aren't you?
>>61178666
If that was the case I'd have said ''electronic music''.
In the context of OPs poll it works fine for the overall electronic dance music genres and the styles therein.
>>61178641
Are there really this many retarded underage newfriends with no clue and their only knowledge about music is from watching TheNeedleDrop or do you just keep samefagging?
>>61178265
>As an umbrella term it is far more acceptable and specific.
i cant believe people are getting so mad at the term "Art Music"
it's almost like this board is filled with underaged fantanodrones

>>61180087
>Art Music
>>61180361
Why wouldn't they be exactly?
Techno, house, hip hop and drum and bass (for example) are all electronically produced music for dancing too.
>>61180361
If you're going to combine techno, jungle and synthpop, you might as well throw hip-hop in there with them too.
>>61178895
Better than ''electronic music''.
>>61180405
It's about the culture as well. Electronic genres are grouped together because they come from a hugely similar culture. Hip-Hop is a broad term that can include rapping, beatmaking, dancing, beatboxing, djing, visual art, even singing and comedy.
>art music
>>61181049
Hip hop is an electronic genre.
Techno is a broad term that can include singing, beatmaking, dancing, beatboxing, djing, visual art, even rapping and comedy.
House is a broad term that can include singing, beatmaking, dancing, beatboxing, djing, visual art, even rapping and comedy.
Breakbeat is a broad term that can include singing, beatmaking, dancing, beatboxing, djing, visual art, even rapping and comedy.
You're stupid.
