It’s perhaps obvious retrospectively that genres is something of a grey atea, ironically i seem to have followed artists who sought to fuse styles (but not talking about the genre ‘fusion’) The other thing is that the great BBC docs on movements like disco usually reveal how acts try to crossover and follow the money and there may be on the other hand acts like the clash who evolve with the passing of the peak punk era, so it’s shifting sands as a topic. That being said i was crestfallen to see housecliche suggest the differences could be quite subtle. I’m kinda hoping for forks, knives and spoons…and maybe teaspoons and butter knives and carving knives etc. nice and easy to file away and spot if described. It may well be the subtleties which have led to my outsider confusion. I think electro may be easier to pigeonhole if anyone cares to. But i’m happy that the thread takes its own shape, be a shame if it didn’t touch on the main genres and as someone mentioned, acid’s been done now, it’s not for me and it’s clearish what defines it, esp with housecliche’s comments
Great input folks
