██▒▒▒▀ Relase Notes: ▒░▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Full URL: ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ http://josefvandekieft.bandcamp.com/album/whats-a-genre ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Info: ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ his is a faux-epic rock opera, examining the evolution ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of popular music genres, and the mind set of a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ hipster\hippie named Mathew...something ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen to it in the form of singles- you will ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ leave disappointed, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen to it as a "faux-epic rock opera"- you ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ will leave confused as if you just watched a mindsrew ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ movie and you will feel the urge to write death threats ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ to me urging me to give it a happy ending causing me to ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ retaliate by releasing end of evangellion ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen to it expecting it to be an "epic" rock ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ opera -you will leave both confused and disappointed, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen expecting to hear songs within the genres ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of music I tagged the album with- you will be sucked ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ into the alternate universe that I come from, with no ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ way to escape ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen expecting none of the songs to fit into ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the genres I tagged the album with- you will be judged ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ as being too introspective by me, and be disappointed ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen expecting to hear the song styles on the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ "artwork" ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ lol jokes on you. you fell for it, ha ha ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if you listen expecting to hear each song being in a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ different genre-you will leave feeling meh? because I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ always question what a genre is and i'm only pointing it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ out now because I want it to have a title, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ this storyline takes place in an alternate reality and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ is therefore non-canon to the main series, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ if that previous statement confuses you here is a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ vocabulary list to look up in order to be more familiar ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ with the setting: ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ vis-a-vis, ergo, Concordantly, instrumentality, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ proselytism, schadenfreude, pandeism, proxy, ego, id, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Serial Escalation, uncanny valley, monad, solipsism, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ libertarian socialism, tymbre, anachronism, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ pseudonym, tempo, devolution, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ instead of exploring different genres as the main ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ concept, this actually tells the story of a person who ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ went crazy and died, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ this was written in a really stagnate period of my life ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and took a longer time because of that, I was originally ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ going to release this under an alter ego pseudonym, but ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ I decided i'm always me no matter who I am, the first ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ name would have been Mathew, but I couldn't decide what ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the last name would have been, I was leaning towards ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ leurker or key, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ IF THIS WERE A STORYLINE it would be about Mathew ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ luerker struggling musician goes crazy, loses touch with ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ people and reality, thinks hes someone else, thinks he's ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ being pushed by his producers to sell out, he becomes ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ patronizing and pretentious and then he dies, on a low ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ note, no redemption, just degeneration and decay, and my ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ interpretation is that after he goes crazy he ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ hallucinates, and he may be taking drugs but its not ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ mentioned, but he has alex from a clockwork orange as a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ foil, the reason it is so crazy is because of the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ breakdown of genres, and the attempts to be "meta", ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Mathew is posting the question whats a genre and he gets ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ no answer back, and his music is just a mish mash of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ what ever he into or what he feels he should do, and he ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ does analyze genres, for instance there is a breakdown ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of what he thinks is normal for mass consumption on the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ radio, its negative, there is an analysis of power ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ballads and the change in rock music that occurred from ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ conception through the loudness wars and into the modern ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ radio ballad, and its also negative, and finally there ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ is a run through of jamacan pop as it started fast and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ slowed down, the emotional response is ambiguous, there ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ is an experimentation of tymbre which results in the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ song what to do being three separate genres , there is ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ plenty of genre mixing, but I always do that, yet im ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ also in my own little kitchen sink musical world, so in ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ a way all of my albums should be called whats a genre, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and that epically long named album I put out, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ one of the interesting things about this album is I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ tagged with real tags by rounding up to the nearest ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ genre otherwise it would have been gothadelic ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ slutwave\slutcore, and even though I am stating that I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ don't know what a genre is, it has 5 1/2 "rock" rock ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ songs, which is a high ratio for me ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ liner notes ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ josef vandekieft- guitar, bass, vocals ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Mathew leurker- keyboards, samples, production ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ jedd marone-drums ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ewan Ivanhoe- producer engineer ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ satan unemployed archangel- satanophone on devils music ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ jesus ben Miriam -subliminal messages ▒▒▒██

▐█▒▒▒ Stanly Kubrick-subliminal messages ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ OKAY JOKING ASIDE the concept behind the name "what's a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ genre?" is my distaste for genre music where it doesn't ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ matter what artist you listen to as long as they get the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ sound right therefore it creates a situation of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ originality being seen as poseurism and creativity is ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ thrown aside, where in the 60s every band had its own ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ sound, Motown is not an exception to this as the session ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ players were a continuously used group calling ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ themselves the funk brothers so it still counts as a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ band with its own unique sound, sure in "electronica" ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ -"every song has to sound a certain way otherwise we ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ give it a new name" makes sense since each producer is ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ working with the same technology and its used primarily ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ for dancing, so you need a repetitive beat, and everyone ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ used the same samples for the drums, I can see how ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ variation when it comes to raving can be looked down ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ upon, but even punk which is supposed to be basically a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ form of Dadaism in rock music to protest against ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ pretension has its own pretensions and has spawned a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ million genres of music. I am genuinely interested in ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ what makes a genre, because of production and public ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ opinion many styles come into existence and change and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ disappear, and change their names while names of genres ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ overlap and are used to refer to different styles, names ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of genres have become umbrella terms, and I find it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ interesting how a simple change in timbre or tempo or ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ subject matter warrants a new name for derivative ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ styles, I also noticed how since the 60s there has been ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ a degeneration in tempo in certain scenes like hip hop, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ rnb, and Jamaican music, ska slows down though many ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ different styles ending with dance hall and dub being ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the slowest variants, and rnb music does the same thing ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ while retaining its name for the most part, Motown, the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Philadelphia sound, and new jack swing are all related ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ to each other but sound very different from each other, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ but at the same time genres that allow for more ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ experimentation can have infinite personal styles under ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the same umbrella term, I especially liked growing up ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the more eclectic bands like the beatles, pink Floyd, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ led zeppelin, queen, the doors, and the cure whom can ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ have an album of songs by the same artist each with its ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ own specific vibe. I cant hold a candle to that type of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music but I like to pretend to. I would much rather do ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ so than have to play the same thing over and over, like ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ how def leppard playing live are basically going to play ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ an hour of ballads even though they are a rock band with ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ some good 80s pop rock songs as well as some earlier ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ stuff that borders on heavy metal [especially for the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ time since it was still developing] heavy metal is an ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ interesting example as well. the way I heard based on my ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ research is that the term was used to apply to the sound ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of the distorted guitars and loudness of the band during ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the mid to late 60s that were playing what today would ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ just be considered bluesy or psychedelic classic rock, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and modern metal music has too many subgenres and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ strangely defiant fans that form rivalries. also I hate ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ power ballads, not because their all bad but because ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ they like to pretend to be the in thing for any rock ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ band to be allowed to play. but If I had a choice I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ would remove all the ballads from rock albums, and if ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ they had to be replaced, replace them with anything, how ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ about rap songs? that would be hilarious, imagine an ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ alternate reality where rap songs were the thing for ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ rock bands to play to get on the radio instead of power ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ballads, so earlier mentioned band def leppard would ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ have their big selling album hysteria have electro funk ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ songs instead of love bites etc.., while retaining all ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the rock songs. I would laugh too much to take it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ seriously, but the people from that universe would do ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the same hearing our version of the band playing ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ballads. my main point I think ballad rock should be ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ considered its own genre and be segregated from hard ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ rock. after all going to see a band for their ballads ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and hearing them play hard rock music is just as bad and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ either way gives you whiplash. the way I like to attempt ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ to cause musical whiplash. ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ another thing about musical genres that's very important ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ is fan perception. if you want a certain band to belong ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ to the genre you like while calling out another band for ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ not being in the genre. go ahead i'm not stopping you. ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ but when you ask the actual band what genre they think ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ they belong to the result is usually something funny ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ like all the metal bands you liked calling themselves ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ hardcore punk while all your least favorite fake metal ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ bands calling themselves rock and roll and all the bands ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ you think are playing in a new genre are thinking of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ themselves as unique and disliking the labels that were ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ coined to describe them and disliking all the bands in ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the genre that are copying them. I find it very snobbish ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and convoluted and geeky. like listening to someone ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ trying to figure out the 60 year storyline of a comic ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ book with different writers each story arc. and each ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ writer has his own idea as to which story arcs are real ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and which ones are from an alternate universe ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ perception is so weird because its all subjective, and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ some people are color blind when it comes to music. I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ tried to discern the difference between the many ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ subgenres of drum n bass and I rather than not ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ appreciating the artists painstaking effort to keep true ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ to a specific sound fascistically, I just felt bad for ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ them, they all sounded the same and thought they were ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ something special, but there was no originality and the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ skill level is hard to discern since its all samples. it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ really doesn't matter to me whether an artist is paying ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ liquid funk or drill and bass since to me their just ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ playing a weird post-disco remix of ahmen brother by the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ Winstons. that's right I said disco. disco refers to ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ discotech were they play dance music, its dance music. ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ disco never died it just changed its name and evolved ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ and mutated and branched off. the reason people claim ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ they hated disco was because it was using mostly ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ synthetic music with out much musicianship. but when it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ disappeared it was replaced with entirely synthetic ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music. and in Europe the continued to use the term disco ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ for their take on club music.[I love synthy dance club ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music no matter what its called] Europe is just weird ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ that way. when a genre of music in America is considered ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ over, Europe not only is still into it but they take the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music to its next logical step and then beyond until ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ when its sent back to the Americas they think its ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ something new. and America is weird in that they have ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ a.d.d and need to move quickly from style to style in ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ any medium. as opposed to historically in music, the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ classical era lasted around a century or two with even ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ less variety in the music. since they had banned certain ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ key signatures as evil and weren't aware of music ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ concrete or modern philosophies on music such as john ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ cages take on it. with all this historical variety going ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ on where we have more variety than ever before just ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ contemporarily plus we have history at the tips of our ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ fingers it really makes me lose faith in humanity when ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ people just listen to lowest common denominator music ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ like rappers who copy each other and recycle everything ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ especially timbres. 97-04 was probably the height of my ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ disdain for hip hop music. which includes both rap and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ rnb. and I especially dislike modern rock for pretty ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ much the same reasons. speaking of American attention ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ span for music, when will modern rap, and post-grunge ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ballad rock go the way of disco, new wave, glam metal, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ grunge, nu metal, and Miami bass [and go away] I've been ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ looking forward to the next thing but it really isn't ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ here . the ONLY genre of music I have REAL DISDAIN for ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ would be choral swing, all that cheesy theme music to ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ black and white movies type of stuff. and school quires ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of any age are pretty tedious as well. there is just ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ something so contrived about that classic pop type of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ thing that makes bubble gum seem edgy ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ I think at this point in time the current popular [7\13] ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ styles of music are: a trance\electro house derivative ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ style that people stand around to instead of dancing.I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ initially found boring but is growing on me, the ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ post-crunk hip hop style is more dance hall and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ gettotech leaning with some more electro and either ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ witch house and\or trillwave elements, I find it more ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ catchier than crunk which I hated and the rock style is ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ sort of a bunch of small factions of dying genres with ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ more retro rockers than usual, when most people think of ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ rock music its typically of the "90s grunge- ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ -post-grunge,--nu-metal" variety with where the top ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ string is tuned to make thick power chords that can move ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ fluidly but are usually sustained instead. I don't like ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ any of the choruses in the songs, ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ I've tried testing my own limits when it comes to making ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music and I kind of feel im going through my weirdo ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music period and I may change later. I have a real hard ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ time figuring myself out since I genre jump so much and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ I mix stuff together. im a jack of all trades and a ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ master of none. and that is the genre of music I play: ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ jack of all trades music. i'll never sit still and i'll ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ never get the time to perfect one the way genre ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ musicians do. but certain styles of music are easy and ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ luckily usually the most fun. the reasoning for the tags ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ I used are mostly because I was listening to that type ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ of music at the time mostly because that was the mood I ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ was in, I also borrowed ideas from them, but i'm too ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ eclectic to be part of those scenes. I think of my ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ attempts at being minscrew this is my favorite, also for ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the song libretto I asked a friend what genre real or ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ imagined he would like as a request and he said he liked ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ the result, it was supposed to be a dubstep noise rock ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ opera, but I told him when I sent it to him I felt it ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ came out more like a crust punk sludge metal ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ electro\electro opera {yes their are multiple genres ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ called electro. its part of my new philosophy. multiple ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ genres can have the same name, like how genres can have ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ parallel evolved duplicates with a different name, or ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ have multiple names themselves} ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ ▒▒▒██
▐█▒▒▒ music I was listening to while I was writing the songs: ▒▒▒██
