I've enjoyed Ishkur's Guide since the old version. Checking out music genres I hadn't experienced, seeing the history, it's all great. But the best part is his descriptions of the genres. This is one of my favorites: Funk music started out in the 1970s as something black guys would occasionally perform while wearing capes, jamming on synthesizers and laying out long, noodly basslines while singing about spaceships and elves. It is the coolest music ever. This contrasts with Progressive Rock which also started out in the 1970s as something white guys would occasionally perform while wearing capes, jamming on synthesizers and laying out long, noodly basslines while singing about spaceships and elves. It is the dorkiest music ever. |
