Music Genres Created During the 2000s (Length Friendly Version)

[TranceExplosion]

I found some music genres from 2000

Lento Violento

Dubstyle

Witch House

Moombahton

Skweee

[Sadsic]

Third wave emo and screamo both are 00's genres.

[HayenMill]

@Sadsic Third-wave emo is not listed in wikipedia. One could argue that it certainly skyrocketed in popularity in the 00s, but it goes as back as the 80s. Those 'waves' you speak of are probably just peaks in popularity. Regarding Screamo, its listed as a 90s genre, which is why I didnt include it.

[Sadsic]

@HayenMill you should reeeeeally stop using wikipedia as yr barometer for what genres exist or not... most of the genres you listed are basically micro genres that were only named because both metal and edm fans need to list every particular sound as being its own subgenre... also folktronica and post-metal are both 90's genres. post-punk revival, chillwave, and witch house would all be good genres to list as 00's genres instead.

[HayenMill]

@Sadsic I understand your concerns, but Wikipedia is the best source out there, even if it constantly changes. I have never seen any references in wikipedia to witch house or folktronica, and in wikipedia post-metal its listed as a 00s genre. Since i only realized chillwave was 00s genre after i made the video, i have listed it in the description.

[Sadsic]

@HayenMill well if you just look up witch house or folktronica on wikipedia both are there. The Beta Band was doing "folktronica" in 1998, and Salem's been doing witch house since around 2008.

[HayenMill]

@Sadsic thanks for the info. i wasn't able to access wikipedia due to the blackout. I will add those two genres to the list of genres I missed after doing this video

[exhalegonzo]

This video is very well done! It actually helped me find new songs I like too. And songs that I hate too. Crunkcore is just awful and clownstep just made me lol

[DienesOly]

my ears bleed .. X_x

[TranceExplosion]

Dubstyle is a new genre

[HayenMill]

@TranceExplosion : thank you for sharing! however, dubstyle is listed as a 2010s genre, not a 2000s genre. Another example of a 2010s genre is Complextro

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

Some of these are so unbelievably specific and silly that you can't take them as actual genres. Nonetheless, it's a fluid term. But that 'crunk core' was just Dance with someone screaming. And is clown core just clown core because the videos involve clowns?

[HayenMill]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth : Most of them are actually sub-genres, not genres. So yeah, i agree. Crunkcore is something beyond my comprehension xD As for clownstep, its more because of the 'happy' synths used, that are trying to be to Drum & Bass what happy hardcore was to hardcore.

[snowboardman720]

what about chillwave?

[HayenMill]

@snowboardman720 : thanks! it seems like one of those genres i completely overlooked. I'll add it in the description next to the others i forgot

[ttthttpd]

Tech-Dnb is actually techstep witch is the forerunner to the more popular neurofunk subgenre of dnb. Raggacore sounds more like darkstep, raggastep is a tad redundant since jungle (proto-dnb) was originally known as ragga-jungle. Also dubstep comes in 3 main forms: minimal/dark (try kryptic minds), dirty (like in the vid) and purple (ghetto funk type dubstep).

[HayenMill]

I think my main point with this video was to show how we listen to music genres with a decade lag. In the 2000s we were listenning to older forms of Drum & Bass, Jungle, Trance, Techno, Break Beat, Hip Hop, etc etc, which were created in the 70s, 80s and 90s (with no particular order). In a way, this video shows you the kind of genres we will likely be listenning to as mainstream music and underground music in the 2010s.

@UnlimitedMayhem its hard to take anyone seriously in that font

[KurokibaDubstep]

what about wobble house and hardstyle?

[HayenMill]

@KurokibaDubstep: Ive never heard of wobble house, and there doesn't seem to be any references on it. All youtube searches seem to use the term similarly with fidget house, which i included in the video. As for Hardstyle, the first recorded events with hardstyle music date to the very late 90s, so i didnt include it either as it is related to another decade.

[awelliott926]

all that sucked the only thing that diden suck was deathcore an by the way its all about the meal

[giliam1]

some of this stuff was already done in the 90's + some of the exampples like liquid funk.. are not really stereotypical examplos imo

though it's a cool summary of developments(whether u like them or not)

[FruangenTVservice]

The Skweee track in the vid is "The High" by Randy Barracuda, released 2006

[HayenMill]

@FruangenTVservice: Thank you for the information! Description info now updated.

[adamshiftyelso]

nicely compiled video, never heard of half of these. Skweee sounds a lot like Broken Beat and Fusion

Plus marks for all the UKG style ones... dubstep, grime, funky, bassline, grindie

also for including liquid funk, sambass, fidget, electrotech, electrohouse

btw, clownstep is also known as 'jump-up'

[HayenMill]

@adamshiftyelso : Thanks! I've also heard the terms jump up and clownstep being thrown around synonimously, but Jump Up is listed as being older (90s), which is why i haven't included it. I do agree they sound quite similar though

[theones77]

NO PROG HOUSE WTF.

also, u missed like, about 587588736783783 genres, but whatev

[HayenMill]

@theones77 : According to my source, Prog House has cultural origins in the early 90s, not the 2000s, which is what this video was about. I AM planning on making video with ALL the music genres created during the 20th century, but my WMM isnt working. Do tell me what zillion genres i've missed during the 2000s, though. I'm all ears!

[theones77]

@HayenMill naw, i over exaggerated like i always do when im tired. but, i knew u missed some, such as hands up (i THINK), hardstyle (but that may have started in the late 90's), progressive dubstep, schrans, and all these little, barely known sub-sub-sub genres that are made every week. its nothing really major, and im probably wrong with this, but it's just something to consider researching more about.

also, thanks for the info on progressive house and great video!

[HayenMill]

@theones77 : Thanks for the info. However, hands-up (aka eurodance) has its roots in (early) 90s, so does hardstyle (late 90s). Schranz is also from the 90s. I couldnt find any info on progressive dubstep. If it really exists, then its definitely worth including in the video (btw, i updated the video info with a genre i forgot: electroswing). Once again, thanks for the feedback.

[RaynaDJ]

dnb started in the 90s, could say even late 80s. raggacore is actually called breakcore and started in the 90s. electro started in the 80s. that grindie (??) just sounded like breaks/breakbeat to me and that started in the 80s. dubstep started in the 90s, maybe even earlier depending on how strict you wanna be. grime started in the late 90s too, just wasnt very big.

[HayenMill]

@RaynaDJ : There was no genre described as "dnb". I only showed subgenres of dnb created during the 2000s. OBviously that dnb is older. Some of its subgenres are also older, such as Neurofunk. Breakcore is indeed from the 90s, but I specifically mentioned Raggacore as legitimate variant, and i'm quite sure you won't find any examples of Raggacore of te 90s, only breakcore. Electro is different from electro-house. Electro IS from the 80s, but electro-house is from 00s. Continued in next post.

[HayenMill]

@RaynaDJ : Grindie is actually a fusin genre from Grime and Indie Rock. It might sound as breakbeat (which you are right, is from the 80s), but they'r different things. There are experimental dub samples from the 90s, but dubstep as we know it and as the genre started to become an actual genre, was only during the 00s. I also don't see how you can claim grime to be from the 90s. All my sources are from wikipedia. It might not be perfect, but its the most accurate yet. Thanks 4 commenting.

[RaynaDJ]

@HayenMill well wikipedia isnt always right. dubstep definitely started in the 90s, and grime in a very early form was definitely in the 90s, pretty much exclusively on pirate radios in london, but it was definitely about.

[HayenMill]

@RaynaDJ : Yeah I get what you mean. There's definitely some early recordings of dubstep, but they were pretty much instrumental dub remixes of 2-step garage tracks attempting to incorporate the funky elements of breakbeat, or the dark elements of drum and bass into 2-step. As for grime it also makes sense to have appeared earlier, but there aren't any examples of both of these genres from the 90s. You can prove me wrong though, and I will stand corrected.
