Let's talk about genres!

[@TheHardstyleMusicz]

Hardstyle is my favorite, the bass, the melodies & the overal drive the genre has is just perfect imo

[@KonnieFuzeon]

Trance Techno Hands up and Hardstyle are no doubt the best genres

Ok, I didn’t realize that House has now been devided into so many subgengres! I knew a couple, but this amount of genres is mad! Now my question to you (all of you) is: do you prefer the current state of House music with all of the subgenres or would you rather have it a bit more simplified? I understand that it’s good to seperate certain styles because they sound totally different, but with a lot of these subgenres the differences aren’t that big.

[@theoneandonlybright6145]

Having a few simpler genres is also great I think

There are so many different genres out now that it would be near impossible to squeeze them all into 1 set while maintaining proper structure.

Techno was built in Detroit as a protest to soul hose/early house. It was more synthetic, less melodies, very cyclic. Typically 4/4. Germans in the 90s were inpsired by Dutch Gabber, sped it up and made the sounds harsher. Detroit Techno - The first birth. Jeff Mills. Seth Troxler is a modern Detroit style artist! Likely 120 - 150 bpm. Minimal - Mostly drum rumbles and repeated phrases, quite dull in my opinion. Can sometimes be melodic. For example, Boris Brejcha There is Dub Techno - inspired by Jamaican dub/delay reverb effects and the first kind of Dubstep. Often breakbeat, Leftfield are an example. Deep Techno: Slower tempo (120-123), rolling baselines, and generally laid-back feel. Kind of like Deep House but more synthetic and less sampled. Few vocals. Usually quite repetitive. Melodic/Ambient techno such as Tale of Us , Solomun (arguably house) typically around 110 - 120 bpm. Very chill, soft drums and synths. Quite house like grooves. Then mainstream/drumcode techno such as Adam Beyer, Anna, Enrico Sanguilliano etc typically 128 bpm. Includes drum rumbles and sustained synths. Sometimes acid, a short memorable cyclic riff sustained throughout the track. Acid Techno - Uses TB-303 to make sick acid sounds, this was born from acid house which was huge in the UK in the late 80s/early 90s, can vary between 120 - 160 bpm, very varied. I enjoy Chris Liberator and 999999999. T78 also uses acid lines but is slower paced at typically 128. Rave Techno - Usually 140 bpm plus, uses more harmonic structures and very inspired by Hard Trance. Julian Muller-Justicary, Dyen - Flashback. Produced to be played at huge warehouse parties. Industrial Techno - Uses sounds from our man made environment, metal hit foley, harsh drums, often very dark and dystopian feeling. Varies from 130-150. Surgeon, Aphex Twin, Regis. I love Perc & Ansome (can be heavy for the average listener however) Hardcore Techno (not to be confused with modern day Hardcore which was derived from Gabber not Techno) - Very distorted drums, underground techno is leaning more to these sounds, always 140+. Inspired by early hardcore such as Marc Arcapine, gabber and even modern day Raw Hardstyle kicks. Moth, Orgie, Nico Moreno, [KRTM]. Experimental Techno - typically lnot 4/4, abstract sounds, white noise, may not even include drums, can vary greatly in tempo. Don't know a lot about it tbh. Can be ambient, can be very harsh. Experimenting in itself leaves a lot of creative freedom. Tekno/Hardtek - In the early days Germans named Hardcore Techno "Tekno" Differs to our modern day Hardcore Techno as it is far less distorted. Hardcore evolved into something completely different as technology improved Tech House (an amalgamation of house and techno): Most sits further on the Techno side of the fence than the House side. Generally more percussive than Deep Techno. Tempo around 125-128) There is probably a lot more but that's all I know! Hope this helps anyone.

[@jayrave4]

Watch this space - hardcore is taking off abroad right now and is the next big thing :D

[@FSwiftDJ]

Happy hardcore is mainly UK form which developed mainly in 94 at raves like Helterskelter with producers like Witchdotka & vibes, Luna C, DJ ham etc happy hardcore was split from jungle rave scene that all came from Rave Hardcore scene in the UK in 1990-1992 , the reason it's called happy hardcore was it had big piano influence as it was happy but with the hardcore feel , it came from the big split in the UK dance scene around 93 , as it was all one sound jungle techno , but the happy house n hardcore crew went down the happy hardcore route, the hardcore jungle crew went down the jungle n dnb route which later formed UK garage scene with a mix of us house

[@jayrave4]

FSwift DJ - largely agree, but by late 96 the word Happy had been dropped by most and it was back to Hardcore again - especially with people like DJ Demo pushing a much-welcomed (IMO) darker riffed, bassline sound to the music. If you remember, the short-lived 4-beat tag was also used, c.1995, but it never caught on. I’m not sure where the UK Hardcore tag that’s used now came from, but it was around the early noughties when that Styles & Breeze Trance derived sound became popular

Those were straight bangin' beats back then before everything got too "Sub Genre" Deep House over here in the States is like you and Gina played in Mixlab LA with those Claude Vonstroke/Dirtybird stuff and Tech House is stuff from like Mark Knight and pretty much everything from Toolroom Records.

When I was younger I enjoyed big room and other genres like progressive house and deephouse. I started to realize that the “main stream music” such as big room is getting more generic. Upcoming artists required less knowledge and skill to be able to play on such levels, sometimes it even looks like they play from USB sticks. Since a year or so I came across the techno scene. These DJs have a much better experience in the scenes and it is less commercial than big room, it looks like techno artists somehow care less about money. I still respect the old DJs who put effort and dedication into their work (the old tiesto for example and ofcourse luke). But the big room scene would be much better if it wasn’t commercialised that much. A dutch music fanatic

He does, and has no problem about it (as it should be) if you look at his tutorials he says it

[@fabianoverdyck205]

presets have been around for over 15 years and before that it was sampling. Quality of music dropping has nothing to do with presets. It's because artists are not innovating and trying hard enough to change things up.

[@saintsamual3850]

In his video where you did a remix for Firebeatz, Luke used a few presets. He recommend that you use them as additional layers, or as a starting point to tweak your own sounds. You have to remember that presets are accessible to everyone. If you're going to stand out, you can't just use stand along presets. But they are great tools for either getting started or adding to something else.

[@StarSoundX]

A thorough vlog about European Bass would be much appreciated.

[@bloodsee]

Loved it that you put in that Metodi Hristov track at the end! Cheers from Bulgaria, Luke! I''m more of a house or progressive type of guy but have been listening to a lot of techno for the past year.

Genres generally go through cycles of being popular, personally I think funky house is making a come back in mainstream clubs and hardcore in the more underground clubs in the uk.

I'm hyped for next week's vlog

[@jacobjamesdj]

My favourite genre personally is Dubstep. Being from the UK, I'm annoyed how no-one really likes Dubstep but I've recently developed a liking for Bass House. It's got the same vibe as Dubstep and the people here like it! Jungle Terror is a new favourite after listening to Wiwek's new EP. Another great video!

I was wondering about the GoPro 6 ! I can't wait to see next weeks video, with the updated settings. Great Video! Thanks Laidback Luke!

[@willroblox]

Favorite genres are : Trance - Dubstep - Drum & Bass! Thanks for the vlog :D

I like the gopro, good quality, can't wait to see next weeks vlog. I have been listening to techno since the early 90's as well and I was totally wrong about the house genre's. I play a lot of big room and festival type stuff. I always thought it was all electro house and fidget. Thank you for all the new terms to add to my library.

[@danielvandoran5973]

i found a few new genres this past year so my fav list has expanded a lil bit. always been a DnB fan Trance got me into edm back in the early 90s wit darudes sandstorm.love the energy from hardstyle and that distorted bass is to die for. Recently ive found future bass with sam holo and marshmello and stumbled on to jersey club n love the vocal chops n the JC drum line in hot.

[@robertrossi9364]

I'm in love with anything electronic

[@ampedturtle4033]

Future Bass, and Trop House. Love some melodies

[@hiimacrazyguy]

Normally future, progressive and bass house are the genres I like the most, big room sometimes.. but recently I've been digging into House/Deep House and also Techno, the longer tracks and the ambiance they provide are perfect in so many ways! Idk how popular he is, but Rafa Barrios is an excellent Spanish tech house producer/DJ that I found recently, he does some amazing stuff

[@Hardik_Patel1395]

I Love Bigroom, Future Bass, Happy Hardcore, Hardstyle And Bass House

[@Acoustic101LS]

Thanks for the great video - Shared on the day before my wedding which is where my DJ journey began...

[@Aydom08]

Looking forward to the fitness vlog. With all these crazy diets out there, I'm curios to hear about your eating and workout regimens.

[@Starkiller981000]

My fav genres at the momemt are: Big Room, Progressiv House, Hardstyle, Future House.

[@robinbrinkler]

Cool summary Luke!... glancing at Wikipedia page 'List_of_electronic_music_genres' illustrates how crazy diverse dance music has become over the years. Here in Scotland a genre affectionately called 'Folktronica' has emerged, but even back in the 90s luminary pioneers like the late, great, Martyn Bennett were playing bagpipes live along to programmed beats Liam Howlett might have dropped into a Prodigy track! :D

[@youngshin5471]

I always find your vlogs informative! Vlog looks fine with your gopro6. It’s amazing to hear that you maintain 8% body fat without dietary restriction, looking forward to your next vlog!

[@jayrave4]

Bass House is the child of Speed Garage (UK late 90s) and Bassline house (popular in the UK in the mid-to-late noughties) which most people in the UK would consider to be under the Deep House umbrella and not a separate entity in its own right. Glad you cleared up the Progressive House situation though... ask anyone from the 90s what they’d consider to be prog house and you’d get a very different answer from someone out raving now. Ditto Tech house, which I consider to be what Carl Cox and Mauro Picotto were playing out c.2003 and not anything Hardwell and Nicky Romero have ever done (as much as I love those guys).

[@deadfisheye388]

I love genres music. Because in any genre music there super cool producers which make that genre super cool

[@diegorodriguez6989]

Another genre vlog would be great! I personally love deep house and psy trance!

[@FaithInTheGlitch]

I've been playing Synthwave out in NYC, and it's a pretty niche genre, but it's blowing up (relatively). Best example is Dance with the Dead's "Cobra" off the album "Out of Body"

[@dmp4096]

@Laidback Luke - I really appreciate your vlogs. You take time out to entertain and educate us. For that I say thank you. I am a mobile event DJ -- every show is customized to the needs of the event and this vlog was very interesting to me because I cannot tell one electronic genre from another most of the time. (I was raised in the time where humans played the music with instruments...you know...back when dinosaurs roamed the earth LOL.) This vlog might have been the first time I was able to actually hear something of a difference between songs labelled with one electronic genre versus another. That was actually very useful! Thank you for that. On the other hand, I have a musical law: There are ONLY two types of music. Good Music and Bad Music. Dancers/listeners get to tell you which it is. Somehow you seem like a DJ who can appreciate that idea.
