Hey! Lend me your ear for a minute.
I know everyone out there likes some form of music or another, we all have varying styles to suit our moods. What is your favourite ?
Country ? Or could it be jazz ? How about folk? Maybe you're not into that. What about some hard rock to get you groovin' ?
Well, no matter what you are into, this website delves into the roots of your particular genre. It chronicles music from pre 1900's - 2000. It's got all of the bases covered.
From: Spirituals - Appalachian Folk - Mathcore - Shoegaze
Yeah, I don't know what that is either, but as you navigate through the music you can click on any heading lo' and behold it shows you what preceeds it, and what came from it.
For instance, if you click Folk Rock, the aarows dance around the page and reach up to tell you where it's roots are (Anglo Celtic-Folk, Blues and is spawned Southern Rock). Now you can hear similarities that you may have never noticed before. Another beauty part of this website is that it plays a prime example of the genre. So, now you know Mathcore is sung by The Dillinger Escape Plan and is very, very loud.
Take a minute and explore your musical roots, maybe you'll find another genre that will float your boat.
