Music Genres

Music means so much to many different people. Whether you are composing the music or just a listener, music is a massive part of everyday life.
There are many different genres including things like classic which is very different from something like punk, however it is all still music and has a meaning to the people whether they are composing it or just listening to it. 

I use Spotify in order to listen to music, the app has all of the different music genres listed so it is easy to be able to find your favourite music type. 

My favourite playlist to listen to is Fresh R and B as my favourite genre of music is R and B. I listen to music quite a lot of the time, when do different things like getting ready to go out or on long car journeys. However when doing school work and revising I like to listen to music that is slightly more calm like Soul, it is not as calm as something like classical music would be however that is what my personal preference to listen to while doing school work. 

So I have spoken about R and B, Soul and classical music however there are many more different genres which include: 

Rock 
Blues 
Classical 
Country 
Electric 
Jazz 
Pop
Rock 

Although all of the above are just some of the many different genres of music  there is then different genres in them, for example: 
Rock is a music genre however is also includes things like, 

  • American Trad Rock
  • Arena Rock
  • Blues-Rock
  • Glam Rock 
  • Hard Rock 
  • Rock and Roll
