But usually, electronic music refers to all kinds of unique sounds explored by artists through electronic equipment at the beginning, and works created by later generations to inherit these pioneers. Avant-garde composers have long been fascinated by the use of advanced technology to create those unprecedented electronic sounds. French composer Edgar Valle is a pioneer in this field. He invented his own electronic music equipment as early as the 1920s, and began to experiment with tape delay technology in the 1950s. Valle's works greatly influenced American avant-garde artist John Cage and German composer karlheinz Stockhausen, who greatly expanded the musical structure of electronic music. However, it was not until 1970s that sequencers and synthesizers became cheaper and simpler, and electronic music really came into public view. 1968, wendy carlos released a Bach album with psychedelic nature, and realized some Bach music clips with Moog synthesizer.

In the folk, light music is very popular and has a wide range of social significance and spiritual functions.

World music in a broad sense can refer to all national music in the world. However, the world music we are going to introduce here mainly refers to a new form of music that is dominated by American pop music and integrates national music elements from all over the world since the end of World War II. American pop music has occupied the whole world since the end of World War II. Blues, jazz, rock music, Sol music and other forms are everywhere in the world, which have brought great impact to pop music in various countries. In fact, all these forms of "America" are actually gene transfer of African descent, which is the beat of the spread of slavery to North America. When these rhythms were slightly processed and returned to their hometown in a new form, it affected their culture and gave birth to an exciting hybrid variety-world music. World music in 1980s had a great influence on the development of western pop music. Interestingly, this influence is a circular relationship: African black culture, as the source of pop music, has made it develop rapidly, which is obvious to all. However, when this American pop music returned to Africa, it promoted the birth of world music. In the 1980s, when the influence of world music was gradually expanding, musicians from all over the world (especially in Asia and Africa) fully embodied more avant-garde contemporary consciousness through various advanced means, thus returning to promote the development of pop music. Therefore, we can clearly see that world music does not exist in isolation. It combines pop music, folk music and even traditional music.

Brief introduction of "rock"

Apartheid in the United States has always been very serious. In residential areas, schools, churches and various social facilities, whites and blacks are separated. Under the policy of apartheid, blacks kept their religion, language, clothing, dance and music. Rhythm and blues, like other black music, has its own set. It is called "racial record", which is separate from the white music market. Rhythm and blues is the result of the continuous development of blues music after World War II. On the basis of urban blues, it combines the characteristics of swing music and piano music Buji-Wuji, and its voice becomes more powerful, highlighting the rhythm of continuous progress. It also retains the tradition of improvisation of black music, and the ensemble still adopts the blues form of 12 bar and the repetitive harmony framework. Before World War II, Blues records were operated by small record companies. After the war, due to the change of black social status, several major record companies became interested in black music. At this time, the leaderboard began to replace the original "national record" with "rhythm and blues". The representative figures of this period are Louis? Jordan (louis jourdan, 1908 ~ 1975), Joe? Joe Perkins and others. The characteristics of rhythm and blues are directly reflected in many rock music, especially the early rock music, many of which are "cover versions" of rhythm and blues. In 1970s, the combination of rhythm and blues and gospel gradually accelerated its development. As a result, all black music in the 1970s has a strong flavor of rhythm and blues, especially Sol music (see Sol music section for details), which is sometimes almost indistinguishable from rhythm and blues (such as Marvin? Guy, Jackson 5 and others). After 1980s, R&B incorporated more pop music elements, making it more commercialized. For example, many rhythm blues have lost their original characteristics, and emphasizing the rhythm of backhand has become its main body. Sometimes, in singing, you can find a few blues notes brought out by sliding. Like the so-called rhythm and blues singer Brandy&Monica, Brian? In fact, the music of mcknight and others is no longer a real R&B. If we insist on theoretical analysis, we can only regard it as a commercial R&B bleached by the pop music market. But not all rhythm and blues are like this, such as 1997' s two Grammy-winning works: Eric? Eric clapton's Change the World and Tracy? Tracy Chapman's "Give me a reason" (case 17) is a masterpiece of modern rhythm and blues, which combines pop music elements and maintains the characteristics of blues. Rhythm and blues, as one of the important sources of rock music, has become a witness of history. After influencing rock music, its own continuous development also makes it one of the most popular music in the pop music world today. -① Introduction to "britpop Brit Rock'n'Roll" The so-called britpop usually refers to Brit-Pop. Brit-Pop is actually not a music type, but a group of bands that appeared in a certain period. In other words, Brit-Pop is not a specific recognizable form. The music of these bands may be very different, but they are connected by something. Therefore, people call them BR-② "alternative rock Alternative". Adult alternative rock is a branch of alternative rock relative to mainstream music. Adult alternative pop is very commercialized, but artists do not aim at business. They come from traditional pop guitar music, pop dance music in the 1980s (just like the music of Juniper Blossom and Naked Girl), folk songs and traditional singers (just like the music of Indigo Girl, Tori Amos, Jeff Buckley, sarah mclachlan, Fiona April and Jewell), and american trad rock music (just like the music of Sheryl Crow and Hu Di&; Pufferfish, Dave Matthews's music), fashionable trip-hop electronic products (just like Portishead's music). The emergence of adult alternative pop/rock comes from the maturity of people's senses: it has become the mainstream music form in the 1990s intentionally or unintentionally. Make the form of rock more loose and pay more attention to creative skills. Its disadvantage is that the inspiration of alternative rock, an adult, only stays on the material surface-he often becomes artificial in his performance because of his deliberate pursuit, deliberately making music sweet or his voice low. But in terms of advantages, this style has created excellent artists who need classical music instead of singing loudly. When the sour indoor music was silent in the mid-1980s, it became a period for the younger generation to sink in and deepen their impressions, and they became very susceptible to the influence of sound. In the early 1990s, some of them began to make music, while others adapted their voices to technology, rather than the soft and warm style of classical Chicago chamber music, which was very similar to the early German trance. Acidity figures include many early records, such as Aphex Twin, Plastikman and Dave Clark. ————————————————— (3) "Punk/New Wave Punk &; Introduction to "New Wave Music" Punk was born in the mid-1970s. It is a simple rock music that originated from garage rock and pre-punk rock in the 1960s. Punk band is based on the simple music of underground velvet, clown, New York doll and other bands, trying to restore the simple essence of rock music through simple triads. Punk music doesn't pay much attention to musical skills, but prefers a clear stand of ideological emancipation and anti-mainstream. This original intention was actively imitated by Britain and the United States under the specific historical background at that time, and eventually formed the punk movement. Although most punk bands are strikingly similar and their works are too monotonous, many famous punk bands have their own distinctive personality characteristics, such as ramones's bubble gum pop music, the strong chord like the face of a sex pistol, the popular feeling of Buzzcocks, the reggae element of Clash and the artistic experimental characteristics of the Wire. Since then, punk has gradually transformed into post-punk, trendy and hard-core styles. In the mid-1980s, the punk movement as a whole fell into a low tide. In the early 1980s, the rapid expansion of punk gradually made it obsolete, and the new wave movement began to enter the historical stage. The diversity of music embodied in the new wave movement meets the needs of some fans who are allergic to punk. The popularity of Power-Pop, Synth-Pop and Pop- reggae based on pop music has contributed to the new wave movement. The great success of the new wave movement should be largely attributed to the birth of MTV in the 1980s. With its help, the new wave movement also has a huge market in the mainstream society and has formed a competitive situation. Around 1982, the new wave movement began to die under the rumbling wheels of heavy metal chariots, but it laid the foundation for the later academic rock and the mainstream of alternative rock in the 1990s, and became an important stage in the history of rock and roll. -"Metal Music" introduced metal music, which began in Britain in the 1960s. At that time, the blues in European music had reached a low point, and some top musicians planned to find a new way out from the old blues and classic rock music, so hard rock music was produced, which was stronger than classic rock music. -⑤ Introduction to Independent Music The name of independent music is taken from the word "independent", which is used to refer to bands that adhere to the DIY spirit in music and records released by small brands with low budgets. ———————————— ⑥ Introduction to "Alternative/Gothic Alternative/Goth" Alternative Goth is a Goth originated from post-punk, and it is a black wave that inherits the spirit of the Middle Ages. ⑦ "Visual Rock"-"Pioneer/Experimental Instrumental Music".
