The other day someone asked what kind of music I listen to and I said frank schauthiggua, they asked what genre and I said mostly cerebral catwave. It seemed like he took it seriously or he was really good at pretending to know what that is. I at least think I made those up. His reaction made me question…
I have almost no idea what any of the more specific genre tags I see on a lot of songs even mean. Has anyone already made something like a list of genres with some examples?
Edit: Thanks everyone, I’ll check those on my next break or maybe when I get home if they get on my case about headphones at work


something like https://everynoise.com/ ?
https://music.ishkur.com/ is also fun
