All of these weird genres of music always make me wonder about something:
Do you like making any weird genres of music? If so, what are they?

I don't just mean just like combining genres for a new genres. I also mean a genre that does not fit in with most of the other genres out there.

Anything that resembles Ar tonelico music, which is kinda like a way-out-there blend of world, rock, orchestral and several things in between.

Coming up within the next month is going to be a crossfade of the things several friends and I have done, which will go along those lines.

Big Room

I'm pretty much the only person on Newgrounds who writes big room. (I get a lot of hate on those songs)

Don't forget that the vocal style is heavily reminiscent of a Bulgarian women's choir, complete with weird time signatures and everything. That soundtrack is really out there.

There used to be a someone who did write big room on NG, so I doubt very much you're the only one on record, but it's not often that we see it here.

Yes -- funnily enough, I got told that by a fair few doujin friends a few months ago. I'd probably go Enya and still think it fits. ^_^'

I wouldn't be surprised if there was room for math rock-type stuff within the OST or fan works, to be honest, I imagine it'd fit right in.

Yeah you're right. But here a lot of people are into progressive house and dubstep.

Based on the experience I have, I find it a bit difficult to get into progressive house right away. It takes the right idea for me to get into it very well. I love making it regardless.

Genre is a social construct. I make fusion of genres.

I do this Lofi/Breakbeat/Acid sound nowadays, I'm starting to bring my music back over the NG and it's an absolute bitch trying to figure out what genre to label my stuff as lol


I'm back!

Sanity is grossly overrated and detrimental to the creative process.
