Genre and artist case study

Bands Like these took punk to the next level and started experimenting with new sounds; they kept the mall ethos of punk, but experimented with image, making it more arty and different with synthesizers being added to the mix. This genre also added elements from ass’s disco. ‘Post-Punk also drew on ass’s disco and club, adding a dance-ability that punk never had. ‘ – Paul Rhodes www. Wine. Com The Post-Punk Revival genre retains the original punk sounds: spiky angular guitars tend to be used, and the songs have a short sharp feel to them.

The lyrics are often about everyday life, and is seen as something that a lot of people can link to, this is another reason that it is part of our lifestyle, it talks about our lifestyle. When is comes to working relationships in the genre the key issues are reckless and unprofessional artists.

Independent Music Consultant. I agree with this and think that this is a common mistake in this genre, artist’s come to the music industry thinking that they are in once their name gets big, but really they need to build a working relationship with colleagues. And the working relationship means that, now that they are in the spotlight they can’t Just do whatever they like.
