If you had to boil music down to three genres, where all other existing genres are just subgenres, what would the three main genres be?
I think it's
Blues (subgenres include rock, metal, punk)
Jazz (subgenres include soul, hip-hop, etc)
Folk (subgenres include pop, primitivism, etc)
Folk
Classical
Pop

hip hop isnt remotely a subgenre of jazz. neither is soul really.
Rhythm & Blues (jazz, soul, rock, blues, metal)
electronic (dance, hip hop)
then maybe either pop or folk idk

/mu/tants need to stop getting offended by the term "art music", it's not a qualitative term
