Indeed.

If you want, I'll do hip hop then the electronic one. Either way, I've been pushing ambient/electronic for a few weeks, so if it's alright, I would like to get one out of the way.

Meh, hip hop does use electronics at times but the two really aren't the same thing IMO. I can't call Beastie Boys or Run-DMC electronic.

Hip hop is encompassed within the electronic genre. We'll see what the votes say.

For now I shall change my vote from field recordings to golden age hip hop.

Beastie Boys ain't really an electronic group. Plus, hip hop also got its roots in R&B as much as electronic, if not more. Although it is true they tend to use electronics in the production. But I can't put hip hop as a whole in the same feild as synthpop, vaporwave, dubstep... MAYBE trip hop since trip hop was influenced by hip hop.


No need to vote. Golden Age is after delta blues. Thanks for the summarry, Bat. It was a good summary and I think I have something new to look for in the golden age hip hop I've already heard.

Turntables, drum pads, casinos, samples, etc. are all considered types of electronics since they're not acoustic instruments.

What is that? Don't remember this one?

They appear in Las Vegas. You gamble at them. Sometimes you win big.

Oh! Wait a sec. Something doesn't add up.

The majority of hip hop still doesn't sound like electronic to me. Plus, samples are from various genres. Sampling other genres doesn't make the sound electronic It just reuses other gemres to include in the hip hip song's layout. At least trip Trip Hop does, though.
