Genre Research.

As soon as we started on our project our first job was to choose a genre. We would like to pick a genre style that will definitely be effective to our target audience, so to achieve this we have decided each to look at different genres such as Rock/Pop/Hip-Hop/Pop-Rock/Indie/Acoustic/Alternative etc. I have chose to look at the following 4 genres which you can see below.


Pop-Rock- is a music genre which mixes a catchy pop style and light lyrics in its (typically) guitar-based rock songs. There are varying definitions of the term, ranging from a slower and mellower form of rock music to a sub genre of pop music.

Pop-(a shorter saying for 'Popular')this type of genre is typically distributed to large audiences through the music industry. Popular music is a generic term for music of all ages that appeals to popular tastes, whereas pop music usually refers to a specific musical genre.

Hip-Hop- is an American musical genre in which rhythmic and rhyming speech is chanted to musical accompaniment. The term hip-hop music is sometimes used synonymous with the term rap music.

Acoustic Music-  Acoustic music comprises music that solely or primarily uses instruments which produce sound through entirely acoustic means, as opposed to electric or electronic means. The term "acoustic music" appeared after the advent of electric instruments, such as the electric guitar, electric violin, electric organ and synthesizer.
