String music is an umbrella genre which includes rock and classical

Yet electronic includes classical music too.

Electronic music is good as a genre, because it describes a specific musical tradition. Now, not all music made with electronics is Electronic Music. An example of this would be Radiohead. They make use of electronics, but their music isn't considered to be Electronic Music. That's because they are not part of this Electronic Music tradition.

I'm with Avant-Math on this one. Electronics are used widely in almost every genre (and kind) of music.
The term tradition, although a notch to broad I think it's a good working term for what electronic music exemplifies, since what I think puts a certain artist in a certain genre is the mindset, not the tools.

No. It's the tradition they follow. Of course, when people follow said traditions, they innovate from time to time, making those innovations the new tradition, and so on. That's what genres are. That's why we call genres like Jazz, Rock, and Electronic genres.

>>61602818

Yes, but there's also the term "Electronic Music", which most people use to refer to a specific (yet broad) genre of music.

Hip hop is pure electronic music, theres no confusion needed.

It started as a Jamaican immigrant running DJ parties ala Jamaica in NYC with turntables and the music is still produced electronically with electronic instruments.

Their definitions are stupid and inconsistent. The best way to define Electronic Music as a genre is through the means of following and innovating on specific traditions.

>No there isn't.
Yes, there is. That's why people consider genres like Progressive Electronic, House, Techno, "IDM", etc to be part of this bigger genre called Electronic Music.

Because it's an improvement on the original, yet inconsistent, definition.

>>300 words for rock
>>use label ''electronic'' unironically
this is your fucking problem. There are not 300 words for 'rock.' Rock is an umbrella term that can refer to a plethora of genres, yet it still gets used and when it does most people are intelligent enough to assess the context it's being used in and know more or less exactly what is being talked about. For some retarded reason electronic music fans are to autistic to grasp this simple nuance of word use. It's completely idiotic since what is being demanded is a reduction of everyone's vocabulary and the absence of a useful blanket term whose meaning is adjustable to the context. Basically just people wanting to cause an inconvenience so they have more arbitrary reasons to think they are better than other people.
>>
>>61601851
That's like complaining that arranged noise is under the umbrella term "music." You can break down classical music further into movements and regions. Things weren't always as global as they are now, so Bach never felt the need to stand out by labelling himself as a Northern post-renaissance.

Some of those genre can be grouped into bigger supra-genres. For example, House and Techno being sub-genres of Electro.
>>
>>61603387
Plus of course

Hip hop and breaks and the hardcore continuum come from Jamaican music

Techno, house et all come from funk and electro

Just because they have electronic instruments and rhythm I don't see how they're both the same genre?

>>61603416
And house, techno and electro all came from synthpop, funk and Jamaican sound systems, they in turn came from Schaeffer and Rhythm and blues.

>>
>>61603214
you definition of genre is pedantic and moronic. Genres as terms exist to facilitate communication, and genre terms have differing meanings in differing contexts, just like you can say dub and be referring to roots reggae or kinds of club music from the UK. Using Electronic music as a genre term is perfectly sound, just the same as rock, and the two can refer to different things in different circumstances.


like this:>>61603291
>ambient is not an electronic music genre
that's clearly retarded. anyone who can't understand how 'ambient' can refer to both things in different contexts is a dumbass. If you were having a conversation about electronic ambient artists (not even to mention the vast majority of ambient artists today are electronic) you wouldn't get suddenly confused if someone said a statement about 'ambient' instead of 'electronic ambient,' because you are presumable a reasonable human that understands what is being talked about.

The same stands for electronic music. Any confusion that would arise from it's use would at best be momentary, and any sane person would have gained clarity in the situation within a few seconds of communicating, yet that's not any fun for the autist republic of electronica that would rather masturbate over arbitrarily self serving semantics.
>>
>>61603466
Musique concrete is still electronic music.

Its not exclusively synths.
>>
>>61603436
I don't see how Synthpop sounds similar to Schaeffer

>>61603451
I'm not saying Electro is the starting point. I just used it as an example.
The starting point could probably be Schaeffer/Stockhausen, but I haven't been able to draw the line that far away. The genre (as a genre) seems to have started in the late 60s with Progressive Electronic. I could be wrong, of course.

>>61603470
There is indeed an Electro-Disco genre. Loo it up at RYM or Wikipedia if you don't believe me.

>>61603478
I used to think so, but changed my mind on this. Kraftwerk wasn't really a rock band at the end, and they were far less responsible of the development of electronic music as people like to make it seem.

It all depends if you are looking at electronic music as the production method (thats all it is), or some mythical genre (there isn't one).
>>
>>61603527
>There is indeed an Electro-Disco genre. Loo it up at RYM or Wikipedia if you don't believe me.
that precisely is the disco incorporating electronic instrumentation I was talking about
turns out people treat it for a genre
huh
>>
>>61603482
My definition works the same for both electronic and rock music.

>ambient is not an electronic music genre
>that's clearly retarded.
Ambient does seem to be an electronic sub-genre, but I wouldn't be so quick to call an opposing statement to be retarded.

>would rather masturbate over arbitrarily self serving semantics.
Arbitrary? Yes. But some of those arbitrary terms are more coherent than others, and that's what we are trying to get at here.

Techno is to a degree, house is more of a disco and r&b subgenre with electronic instruments.

>this is why you are retarded
No. I said I agree with you. But jumping into that kind of quick conclusions without trying to understand the opposing point of view is actually immature and stupid.

Nice circular logic
>>
>>61603566
>or some mythical genre (there isn't one)
There are certain philosophies and mindsets adopted when making electronic music, like giving preference to sound over music, the creation itself over the creation process, etc. things which set the difference between a piece of electronic music and a piece of music simply incorporating electronic instrumentation. Luigi Russolo and his manifesto "The Art of Noises" specifically have conceived what we know as electronic music: the genre.

I never did, I said he made electronic music.

>>61603687
That doesn't exist.
>>
>>61603712
>Techno is to a degree
Okay

>house is more of a disco and r&b subgenre with electronic instruments.
Looking through the RYM Disco timeline, the first House recordings are all tagged as Electro-Disco, that's why I say House is an Electro sub-genre.
Do you disagree with this way of establishing House as an Electro sub-genre? If yes, what alternative do you propose?

>>61603753
You can't really prove that. It's going to be either inconclusive or proven true.
At this point, it seems that all forms of electronic music are sub-genres of some electronic music from the late 60s thanks to Progressive Electronic.

>>61603817
>The way I already said, house came from disco and r&b with electronic instruments.
And it had relevant Electro influences, making it an Electro sub-genre
>>
>>61603853
nah
electronic instruments pre-date the invention of the tape machine

and concrete is very specifically music made with tape machines (using recorded sound as a source) and not oscillators or synths at all

i guess what i;m saying is there's no direct lineage between schaeffer and the paris crew and syths pop, which really if you want to credit to an old guy you should go for raymond scott
or if you want to go as far back as possible, thaddeus cahill or one of those boys

Absence of proof doesn't mean the statement is false. That's basic logic.

>I have only been able to go back to the german progressive electronic artists.

I'm not even sure what you're trying to achieve anymore. Electronic music is music made electronically, find the first person to make music with electronic instruments and voila.

If you are trying to find the origins of this mythical Electronic Music genre you keep on about you're on your own because I'm off out to find Moby Dick.
>>
>>61604181
You just saw a demonstration fo your argument being circular logic (X is True because X is True). That argument is literally and objectively invalid. You are the one with a mental deficiency if you think circular logic is valid. And no, this isn't a case of "a statement and it's converse statement to be true".
I suggest you to make your argument again, but more careful this time.

The ststement is question wasn't even written primarily as an affirmative declaration of an argument, but as a summation of the argument that was already presented, illustrating the basic abstract concept you are too retarded to comprehend, yet it even bears true when lowered to your pedantic level of non figurative communicating, and that's why I am lamoing at your life.

Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say to some people on here. There are still some traditions, but those aren't restricted to the use of electronic instruments.

>>61604451
I wouldn't be so quick to say that. Tell me how musique concrete related to progressive electronic in terms of traditions and innovation.

>>61604465
For that to be a case it would need to be an arguemnt of type P because of Q, but it isn't even that, because you said X because of X.

Keep on calling me a retard, but if you are genuinely believing your own lies, then I feel sorry for you.

>>61604476
Some of those genres can be reduced to even bigger genres, without losing consistency.

>>61604553
your tiny gay mind is assuming that x is a constant.

you are a genuine moron to have made these posts. hopefully someone is looking after you and you aren't in any danger, cause n the sudden absence of your vast stupidity the contents of mu would surely shift and collapse in to a great void. Stay safe little man.

>>61604696
No. X is a proposition.
You are a retard, and the opposing statement is not an object of derision because it is untrue
I hope this clears up this basic concept you still fail to understand
>>
>>61604733
you are removing the the statement from it's context that illustrates why x is not constant. You don't have the full equation. Again, stay safe dumbass, lamo, etc.
>>
>>61604815
That was your whole argument.
Read it again if you want to stop believing your own lies, or better yet, make a new argument, but this time be more careful when making it.

that's for the (You). Many reasonable people long for the world to be as simple as you are able to understand it, so next time you are feeling down remember that you have that going for you. Dumb fuck.

You are asking to be spoonfed what has already been said, even though the past several posts have all been purely for your benefit that they might make clear to you what you failed to understand already. To continue at this point would be going full circle, which is obviously illogical for me to do considering you are a dumb little man.

>>61605503
You never said why it's retarded to consider the possibility of ambient not being an electronic music subgenre (except for the circular logic thing). Is it really that difficult for you to understand this?

Where did I ever say considering the possibility of electronic music not being an electronic music subgenre is retarded?

It's obvious you don't have reading comprehension because you think this point was made. You don't understand half of what has been said to you.

Ambient is more than one thing. it's very fucking simple you dumbass my god.

Says the guy who uses circular logic as an argument and can't even remember what his point has been the whole time. Yeah, very smart of you.
Do you study music by any chance?

>Ambient is more than one thing. it's very fucking simple you dumbass my god.

THEN: anyone who can't understand how 'ambient' can refer to both things in different contexts is a dumbass. >>61605781
>Says the guy who uses circular logic as an argument and can't even remember what his point has been the whole time.
not using circular logic at all you retard. My god, I can't believe I am still talking to your retarded ass so bear with cause I need to drive this home to post at all at this point, you are an unbearable retard.

ONE LAST TIME AS CLEARLY AS POSSIBLE FOR YOUR DUMB FUCK MIND:

>>61605781
>>ambient is not an electronic music genre
>>that's clearly retarded
he said "ambient is not an electronic music genre" as a prescriptive statement. That is retarded because as was demonstrated, and as you even agreed with, it clearly can be with a context. This is not to say ambient as a broader genre does not also exist, it does, both exist. The statement was retarded because it acts as if on one definition is correct when both are correct. Anyone with reading comprehension can understand what my post is illustrating with so called 'circular logic,' as it clearly elegantly summarizes the same ideas that your dumb fuck ass needs a goddamn lecture to understand at all. Holy fucking shit.

>>61605781
>Do you study music by any chance?
In a sense yes. You will probably hear my music soon enough.
>>
>>61606156
Yes, he later said that ambient can refer to different things depending on context, but his statement "It's retarded to think of ambient music as a non-electronic subgenre" is definitive. He wasn't referring to any specific context, he just went on and said "every form of ambient music", or at least that's what was implied.

>not using circular logic at all you retard.
Okay. Whatever.
What was your argument for saying ambient music can't be a non-electronic subgenre? Use whatever context you want.

Okay then, let's suppose it was a prescriptive statement (it didn't appear to be one, but it's fine). What's the argument for saying so boldly that ambient music can't be a non-electronic subgenre?

>The statement was retarded because it acts as if on one definition is correct when both are correct. Anyone with reading comprehension can understand what my post is illustrating with so called 'circular logic,' as it clearly elegantly summarizes the same ideas that your dumb fuck ass needs a goddamn lecture to understand at all.
Just now you expressed your argument in a more orderly way. You are right, the meaning of the word depends on the context.

>>61606389
I guess we will never know why saying that ambient music being a non-electronic subgenre is a retarded thing to do on some specific contexts.
Will this mystery ever be solved? We might never know...
>>
>>61606093
Its simple.

see >>61603109

and >>61603245

The OP point is why would you be anal about rock sub, subgenres when you talk about a band but call everything else electronic?
