My aural skills class in first year was like that. We met Tuesday and Friday, and there was something due for each class. We had to download media files and basically transcribe them. |

Hey can someone recommend some good sites that have a history of music genres or which talks in some detail about what makes each genre different so I can expand my knowledge base? I was even thinking of creating a thread if I get enough material and making like a general thread of a little about each genre and like 1-2 classic Youtube examples for people to hear what the description is meaning.
Does that sound good? Maybe new members might find it interesting.

I was thinking more of a collective source. And not just about genres either. I of course have used wiki before.

Hmmm, the only one I can think of besides Wikipedia is a website that I have access to through school. And you have to be a post secondary student in Canada or the US to access it....
If I find something else, I'll share it with you. |

I think you need to get offline & start reading books.
I don't think I've ever found any website that's as detailed & accurate as some of the books I've read. You want to learn about punk read England's Dreaming by Jon Savage. You want to learn about post punk read Rip It Up & Start Again by Simon Reynolds. You want to learn about American 80s Indie read Our Band Could Be Your Life by Michael Azerrad. I swear you'll learn more in one night reading those books than you would looking online.
