Genre-a-day
Simple duh. We choose a genre and only songs from that genre can be posted on that particular day. Next day the genre changes. Sub genres are fine too, and ideally a genre should not be repeated till we've gone through a good many others, say a week at least. Usual limit requested of three videos per post, but you can post as many as you like of the genre of the day on the day; please do not retrospectively post when a genre's day is done. It may come back around but basically as they say in sales, when it's gone it's gone. Anyone can suggest a genre for any day at any time, but all will be taken in rotation. Clear? Tough. Here we go.

After selling a frenetic 7" punk single from the boot of Karl's car in Cardiff in 1979, Rick Smith and Karl Hyde formed a new wave synthpop outfit named with an unpronounceable squiggle, later rebranded as "Freur" to facilitate marketing. They had a minor hit with "Doot Doot" in 1983. In 1985 they scored Clive Barker's Transmutations aka Underworld and adopted the alternate title as their new band name.
They released two synthpop albums to minor acclaim as Underworld MkI before Darren Emerson joined and they began producing proper progressive house music. Underworld MkII's first album, Dubnobasswithmyheadman received great critical praise and the band became a household name after being featured on the Trainspotting soundtrack with their non-album floor-stomping b-side hit, "Born Slippy.nuxx." The rest is history. |

Hey, since you're doing folk today, maybe folk rock tomorrow? :D
|
We can do folk rock, but in general I'm trying to keep genres and sub-genres pretty separate. So maybe pencil it in for next week, but not tomorrow. Tomorrow's genre will be... different.

Friday: Jungle
https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/i...rW2GQ&usqp=CAU No, not that kind! Someone will surely have something to post here? Anyone? |
Spoiler for Jungle:
Lennie De Ice - U Ask For It Remarc - Sound Murderer - White House Records - WYHS 035 (1994) Buju Banton Champion - Jungle Drum Remix |
I took the liberty of posting a couple more cheeky ones as it looks like Jungle is still open. With the snare tuned up nice an’ high.
For tomorrow, could I propose a genre which I’m sure has been discussed before but which I haven’t seen on MB in the last few years?: Zeuhl |
In the spirit of continuation, here's a bit of Zeuhl :yeah:
"Coined by French musician Christian Vander, who claimed it meant "celestial" in his constructed language Kobaïan." Magma - "Köhntarkösz, Pt. II" (released 1974?) Weidorje – “Elohims Voyage” (1978) https://audion1.bandcamp.com/track/elohims-voyage-live (1977) ZAO – Metatron” (1975) ZAO – “Merci Jacky” (1977) Thanks Trollheart for allowing me to hijack your thread for a couple of days. :love: . |
