3. Music is a really deep zone to explore. It has
many styles, genres and then sub-genres ,
which are represented in their very own way
by its followers.
I’ll be naming some of the music genres in
this presentation with their minor details.

5. Hard rock (or heavy rock) is a loosely defined subgenre of rock
music which has its earliest roots in mid-1960s garage rock, blues
rock and psychedelic rock. It is typified by a heavy use of
distorted electric guitars, bass guitar, drums, and often
accompanied with pianos and keyboards.

Hard rock is a form of loud, aggressive rock music. The electric
guitar is often emphasized, used with distortion and other
effects, both as a rhythm instrument using repetitive riffs with a
varying degree of complexity, and as a solo lead instrument.
Drumming characteristically focuses on driving rhythms, strong
bass drum and a backbeat on snare, sometimes using cymbals for
emphasis. The bass guitar works in conjunction with the drums,
occasionally playing riffs, but usually providing a backing for the
rhythm and lead guitars. Vocals are often growling, raspy, or
involve screaming or wailing, sometimes in a high range, or even
falsetto voice . Hard rock has sometimes been labeled cock rock
for its emphasis on overt masculinity and sexuality and because it
has historically been predominately performed and consumed by
men: in the case of its audience, particularly white, working-
class adolescents.

7.  Hard rock developed into a major form of
popular music in the 1970s, with bands such
as Led Zeppelin, The Who, Deep
Purple, Aerosmith, AC/DC, and Van
Halen, and reached a commercial peak in the
mid to late 1980s.

9. Punk rock is a rock music genre
that developed between 1974
and 1976 in the United
Kingdom, United States, and
Australia. Rooted in garage rock
and other forms of what is now
known as protopunk music, punk
rock bands eschewed perceived
excesses of mainstream 1970s
rock. Punk bands created
fast, hard-edged music, typically
with short songs, stripped-down
instrumentation, and often
political, anti-establishment
lyrics. Punk embraces a DIY
ethic; many bands self-produced
recordings and distributed them
through informal channels.

11. Jazz is a music genre that originated at the
beginning of the 20th century, arguably
earlier, within the African-American
communities of the Southern United States.
Its roots lie in the adoption by African-
Americans of European harmony and form,
taking on those European elements and
combining them into their existing African-
based music. Its African musical basis is
evident in its use of blue notes,
improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation and
the swung note. From its early development
until the present day, jazz has also
incorporated elements from popular music
especially, in its early days, from American
popular music.

13.  Hip hop music, also called hip-hop, rap
music, or hip-hop music, is a music genre
consisting of a stylized rhythmic music that
commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic
and rhyming speech that is chanted. It
developed as part of hip hop culture, a
subculture defined by four key stylistic
elements:
MCing/rapping, DJing/scratching, break
dancing, and graffiti writing. Other elements
include sampling (or synthesis), and
beatboxing.

15. Pop music (a term that originally derives
from an abbreviation of "popular") is a
genre of popular music which originated
in its modern form in the 1950s, deriving
from rock and roll. The terms popular
music and pop music are often used
interchangeably, even though the former
is a description of music which is popular
(and can include any style).

16. A body of music which is
distinguishable from popular,
jazz, and folk music. Although
pop music is often seen as
oriented towards the singles
charts it is not the sum of all
chart music, which has always
contained songs from a variety
of sources, including classical,
jazz, rock, and novelty songs,
while pop music as a genre is
usually seen as existing and
developing separately. Thus "pop
music" may be used to describe
a distinct genre, aimed at a
youth market, often
characterized as a softer
alternative to rock and roll.
