Yeah, get your imagination running, cause it time for the "make up your own musicstyle"-game! Its simple: First I write a madeup name for a genre. Then the next person describes it, how it sounds, what kind of people listen to it and how they dress, what the lyrics are usually about, artists (preferbly real ones ^^) that make it, blablabla. Then that person makes up a new genrename, and suddenly we have a neverending spiral of musicgenreriffic fun!
example:
Casualno
A music style popular at the parties of swedish teenage brats. It mixes trance, house and techno with the most terrible result. Landing somewhere between 120 - 140 bpm, it oftenly features a repeated melody, like a mantra. 90% percent of all the casualno songs are really bad remixes of other songs. Your average casualno-listener is somewhere between 13 and 17, is a brat or a wannabe brat, and dresses thereafter.
Casualno songs:
MC Hammer - Cant Touch This (Beam vs Syrus remix)
??? - Tetris (YES IT FEATURES THE TETRIS THEME!)
Beam vs Syrus - Lifestyle
Describe the genre:
Punk Hop
-
That's not a made up genre.
-
No, but this is:
Giraffecore.
-
giraffecore is clearly any music approved of by hardcore giraffes. This includes The Pixies, Fugazi, and Spoon (also the mario brothers theme song, though they won't admit it).
-
Rob Grant and Doug Naylor came up with "Rastabilly Skank"
I think it's a combination of Reggae, Bluegrass and Ska.

Ian Mckaye, Frank Black, and...that guy from Spoon were all giraffes?
Man. Frank Black must be one fat giraffe.
-
Sturge-Core. If it's good music, It's Sturge-Core.
-
Sturge Core is a genre for people named Sturge, Sturgeons, and Surgeons, as well as people who you may describe as "surly" (Ala Russel Crowe, and his band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunt. Fuck Russel Crowe).
Nerdier than if Geddy Lee and Alan Parsons teamed up-core.
-
Wha, punk hop exists? Should have seen that one coming though, guess its a bit to obvius to be nonexistant ^~.
-
Lukel - a genre defined mostly by the music that the majority of QC forumgoers tend to hate
-
Phalluscore - PHALLUSEES!
Brainchipcore - Music made with fucking BRAIN CHIPS!
Future - Music from the FUTURE!
-
If punk hop does exist, it should be called hop punk.
-
hop punk sounds too much like pop punk, which is a fucking disaster.
Come on, give punk hop a chance! It should fail on its own merits.
-
Exactly! Given the nature of modern main-stream hip-hop, it would be the most commercial genre ever.
-
True. But we must let it grow to deserve our hatred first. Who knows, a whole new generation of terrible artists to make fun of might come out of it! And a whole new social denomination. It won't be, "Hey, look at those emo kids with their tight girl pants," it'll be, "Hey, look at those goofy punk-hoppers with their plaid pants hanging down around their arses!"
-
can it be a rule that the suffex "core" cannot be involved?
Dance-Violence. My best example would be Horse the Band. Part dancy (i.e. dancy party not hardcore dance duh) and part arm swinging violence.

The bands would be very rich and punk.
They would wear clothes made out of bank notes and safety pins.
-
TOTALLY.
And when they're not wearing clothes made out of bank notes and safety pins, they will be wearing plaid pants falling down around their arses. And artfully torn do-rags.
YO, ANTI-CONFORMIST GANGSTA...OI.
-
Punk-hopers wear truckercaps with holes for their spike-mohawks. The attitud behind punk hop is mix of punk and hip hop attitude, best defined with the words"FUCK YOU I WONT DO AS YOU TELL ME YEAH CUZ IM THE GANGSTA PIMP WITH ALL THE HOES AND CASH MUTHAFUCKAH!".
They would wear a crazy mix of blingbling and trashed stuff. Sure, important papers and safety pins, as long as the safetypins made out of platinum and are covered in little diamonds.
-
Acid bluegrass.
-
It's called "Bela Fleck and the Flecktones".
-
Doombilly Mathcore
Someone please tell me what this would sound like, it has to be at least as cool as the genre name.
-
What Elvis and Electric Wizard would sound like if they teamed up and played their music at the same time in 44/6 time or something obscure of the sort.
-
Blatent Serenade Music
-
AIDSrock.
Queen would SO be in.
-
Someone give a name to the style created when:
1) Mike Patton & Les Claypool lead a Brass band.
2) Reel Big Fish play free jazz with Colin Meloy.
3) A punk balalika quartet starts a thrash project that covers Jethro Tull songs and they are all on X.
-
I just came up with this one:
Jug-hop.
kind of a combination of a jug band and R&B.

Toilet-Folk
It's a bunch of fat old guys playing guitar and harmonica on the toilet
and anyone who plays it is called "toilet folk" too.
