30 Subgenres of House: ruclips.net/video/VWxeD3u44yI/видео.html The track names for Liquid DnB are wrong... The first one is acutally donnie dubson & stunna - forever and the second one is The Invaderz - So Low (DJ Marky And Bungle mix).
Fantastic video. I adore Drum n Bass. I like the passion and love that avid listeners share and I’ve seen plenty of wholesome interactions in the community from that. But there is a weird gatekeeping “um achtually 🤓” corner of the DnB community in naming its subgenres that makes me hesitant to discuss or describe music I like or even question how to label the music I make. So this video is helpful in more ways than you might have known. I know this video isn’t (nor does it try to be) the DnB Bible but it helps me feel like I know the subject better. Thank you for not making me feel like an idiot for not knowing what industrial-microtonal-neurofunk-cottagecore-breakdance-IBS-locrian-junglebreak is.
Great video! I also really love how it transitions so nicely to each song and each section. Though I gotta point out how you for some reason have 2 instead of 3 on Ragga Jungle
Really cool stuff, I knew DnB has a long and diverse history, but I wasn't even aware of some of the subgenres I listen to. This will definetely help me find more good music, so thanks!
Nice video! Well put together. One thing - drumstep specifically has a half-time feel in the drums (so it sounds like sped-up dubstep). I'd probably have added Halftime as a subgenre (see - Om Unit, Alix Perez) - also has the half-time drum feel but is less EDM-Dubsteppy. Good work regardless :)
@@Sqlut Drumstep is dubstep at dnb tempo (170+ bpm but half the snares) created so dnb DJs could mix in dubstep to their sets without changing the tempo
The only thing i wish is that ytmusic to recommend everybanger from this video, i wish a fully functional algorithm or mix so i can jam while doing something, i've never throught dnb to be this diverse im actually impressed
i LOVE DnB !! thank you so much for this video, i already knew most of these but some caught me off guard. if anyone has other videos, subreddits, websites, etc... to give me so i can learn some more about DnB or House, Techno or Trance i d love that !
I'm glad you enjoyed it :D Hopefully I'll be able to cover all genres in the future! Here are the ones I already have in case you didnt already see them (though I'll redo the Techno one since there are some inaccuracies) ruclips.net/p/PLoqt_lVI3M8yS4SIwkwp2aMdjQZ8PqsVC
This is awesome, I have a much clearer understanding now; such an interesting evolution. Where would pink pantress be ?? Or is she in another subgenre;;; amazing vid :))))
13. Darkstep 3:33 "certain type of bass" you are talking about the reese bass right? Also it's funny how you merged the breakbeat scene and jungle dnb scene together. I usually split them but I get your point. Future Prophecies - Jack the groove is techstep for me, but the moment you picked does not reflect the song imo Thank you for the great video
Back in my day, we knew Jungle and Drum&Bass ! Many of these names of subgenres must be invented 20 years later? Or I am just old, that's also a possibility :D
I think around half of them where invented in this century, but many of them arent really something different than jungle/dnb, but rather just finer specifications, so thats probably why
it's really sad to see how this new style direction (modern liquid dnb) has gone too soft pop. real liquid funk/dnb is almost a lost art these days and only a smaller number of underground artists do this real liquid funk and not the modern pop liquid dnb of today, it's awful and I love the old school liquid funk style which sounds 100% better. and if you want to hear my own songs that are *liquid funk* dnb style, you can find them on my channel 🥳🍫☕🍹🍸🥂this was interesting video
Atmospheric/intelligent/ambient dnb is having a nice revival right now and it’s the roots of liquid dnb, highly recommend checking some out. I love the original liquid dnb too and I think you’ll like that stuff
Some recs: Artemis - Elysian Fields Makoto - Wave LTJ Bukem - Music Future Engineers - The Silence Arcologies - Reflections of the Mind PFM & Peshay - Unreleased Remix Aural Imbalance - Astral Forest Mirage - Personal Hope you find something you like!
The track names for Liquid DnB are wrong, sorry for that. The first one is acutally donnie dubson & stunna - forever and the second one is The Invaderz - So Low (DJ Marky And Bungle mix)
Well, I can't blame you for adding the break into drum and bass, but you missed adding the west coast break, which started the florida break, the progressive break, the baltimore club, and the hardcore breaks that would be its revived version of hardcore rave which in turn is known as breakbeat hardcore or oldskool hardcore!!! and on the drum and bass side, you have not added technoid, halftime, footwork jungle, dubwise, drumfunk, and crossbreed!!!
Whats the difference beteen hardcore breaks and hardcore rave? I already have progressive breaks. Baltimore Club I would say thats basically just Truntabelism and falls under Hip Hop, no? Technoid falls under Techstep I'd say, footwork jungle is the same as ragga jungle, I wouldnt say Dubwise is dnb, Drumfunk is debatable, but what I heard so far that people call drumfunk was always either Atmospheric Jungle or Breakcore (feel free to give me a counter example though) and Crossbreed even though is has drumbreaks, I would definitely put that under hardcore and not dnb. West coast breaks is a good one tough.
@@donit. The difference between hardcore breaks and hardcore rave is that hardcore breaks is a revival of hardcore rave, which by the way is breakbeat hardcore (its main name, of course), which also has resurfaced since 2000 since hardcore rave It has ceased to be relevant since the mid-90s, so hardcore breaks takes influences from the original hardcore rave and adds modern styles such as dubstep and footwork and drum and bass and finally the uk bass!!!
I thought all the music choices were great except for Neurofunk, the examples you picked did not fit modern neurofunk in the slightest. I'm not sure but I thought Neurofunk was a quite modern subgenre
I mean I'm pretty sure it already existed before 2000... but you are right that what people call neurofunk has evolved quite a bit over the years. maybe I should have also put in a more modern version of neurofunk as a seperate genre, but I didnt want to just invent terms.
@@Ossipeks I wouldnt call it dub infused just because the bass reminds of a dubstep bass. the difference to other jungle tracks is mostly the atmosphere and I think thats whats the most important thing about the genre neurofunk
for neurofunk I think that he should've picked anything from the "current value - back to the machine" album and maybe "edrush, optical, fierce - alien girl" or something like that
Neurofunk (Breakage) I don't think that's the best example you could have put there my man lol Breakage is waaaaaaaaaay too chill for neuro and hes more known for his jungle stuff. I think a better example would have been any current artist on Blackout and such, Pythius is a good example I'd say, Counterstrike is great too but that's more on the Technoid side of things which is even more aggressive Neuro basically lol as for an older neurofunk example maybe Optiv - Brainworm or Ed Rush & Optical - Chub Rub or any old BSE / State Of Mind stuff As for modern liquid it actually hasn't moved to a more pop sound, you're just not looking in the right places or the right artists, plenty of artists still doing traditional liquid today
Fair point with the neurofunk. With the modern liquid genre I didn't mean to imply that that all that liquid is nowadays. Rather I wanted to seperate the more modern varient from the classic one, but of course both still exist!
I’ve been searching any info about the whole new trend of dnb style which I could not name… Maybe you can tell me? For example: Wingz & Koharent - Satisfy Or Cesco - Rattler Or even DMR - Guilt I think the style of these three tracks is very similar and I really love it. But I can’t help to define it by myself. Can you help me please? Anyone?
its closest name if not the exact one minimal/deep although me and many other DJs define the genre their mixing as "deep" it very often crosses paths with liquid, tech step dark step and sounds often minimalistic
@@xicyDJx hey mate. thank you for your answer, appreciate it. Before i read your reply i was searching the answer by my own and i found one interesting mention: "bristol dnb". can you tell me what it is? is it also a sort of "deep dnb" or is it a whole new subgengre?
@@LF7D_ i would say it falls under said "deep" category... sofa sound is a good example for a label from bristol that makes that kind of music a lot. Overview UK is not from Bristol iirc but also a good example Wingz for example is under even though he is from austria/vienna.
@@xicyDJx no mate, i was told that its a whole subgenre called "bristol dnb" and all those sofa sound, overview uk, 1985 music, Flexout and even Critical (o.O) are among that style lebels. so i am a bit confused now... i thought those labels are Deep/Minimal...
@@LF7D_ and what i am saying is that you can sort of put bristol dnb under the deep/minimal umbrella... if even Markus Wingz who i know personally says so... i mean its just me telling you so believe me or not... but thats my whole stance on it.^^
@@donit.The first example of neurofunk is poorly chosen. The second is ok. Similar to Liquid, I would differentiate between old and new. Examples of new would be Prolix - Beat Down or State of Mind - Giant VIP. But all in all a very informative video!
Cool concept for a video but the choice of examples for jump up and neurofunk are …. Interesting. those are some of the most popular subgenres and the examples do not capture the sound well. Based off those I would imagine the accuracy for genres I’m not as familiar with are also questionable. Also where is liquid funk? And halftime? And calling modern liquid not “real” liquid is pretty shady lmao like why is that necessary when explaining the genre
Maybe you think of more modern varients of the genres, but I think the examples for jump up and neurofunk are very typical... What examples would you have chosen? What people call liquid funk is usually either liquid dnb or microfunk. Halftime is something I would count under Darkstep, though here I think its also ok to see it as a seperate genre. And sorry if it came across that way, but I didn't intend to call modern liquid dnb no real liquid dnb, I only used the word to differentiate between it and the one that existed first. Thats also why I put it in quotes, because I wanted to emphasize that none of them is more "real" than the other.
I would usually count that under Hardcore Rave. But some people differentiate between them as Hardcore Rave being the "oldschool" genre and Crossbreed the more modern one, I think thats fair too.
Maybe if you see Breaks as a seperate genre, but I don't think there's any subgenre in there that wasn't at least very strongly influenced by DnB or Breaks. Regarding your alleged wrong and missing genres, it would be helpful if you could be a bit more specific there, what do you think is wrong or missing?
@@donit. Theres a genre called breakbeat that encompasses everything you call breaks. Hardcore rave is definitely not DnB. Jungle makes a bridge between Breakbeat Hardcore and DnB, but is also a distinct genre, but thats ok if you put it inside DnB genre. First Jump Up example you mention is not the old Jump Up, is actually more turned to the Nu Jump Up you later present. Old Jump Up is a subgenre of Jungle (check this one for old Jump Up: Dead Dred - Dred bass). Big Beat is a subgenre of breakbeat (The Prodigy is not DnB). Kemal - Hostile is more Techstep than Darkstep, so not a good example. A better example is DJ Hidden - The Narrators (Eye-D remix). What you call Psybreaks is actually Neurofunk, you should remove the examples you call Neurofunk and replace them by the ones you call Psybreaks. The first one you call Neurofunk (Breakage) seems more Techstep / Drumfunk. The second one (Counterstrike) seems more Techstep / Darkstep (check instead the more recent Counterstrke work, most of it is Neurofunk). Breakcore is also not DnB. It is a unique genre, more turned to Breaks and Hardcore Techno. But Drill and Bass is a mix of Breakcore and DnB. The examples you call Drumstep are Nu Jump Up. A good example of Drumstep is Rusko - Everyday (Netsky Remix). The first example you call Dancefloor is Liquid Dnb, the second one is more turned to Liquid and Microfunk. Missing genres: Halftime / Halfstep (different than Drumstep), Technoid, Skullstep, Crossbreed, Drumfunk, Dubwise, Trancestep, Hardstep (Jungle), Atmospheric DnB (not the Jungle one), Neuro Jump Up (Neurofunk + Nu Jump Up), Abstract DnB (well you can ignore this one). Check out some Zardonic stuff too, he combines DnB with Metal. I may be missing some genres too.
@@birdman8375 I agree that Hardcore Rave is more Hardcore than it is DnB, but I would say its a subgenre of both, since it has strong enough influences from both. Same with Breakcore (including The Prodigy). Regarding the missing genres: Technoid - Whats the difference to Techstep? Skullstep, Hardstep - Same as Darkstep. Crossbreed - Same as Hardcore Rave Drumfunk - Same as Microfunk Atmospheric DnB - Whats the difference to Atmospheric Jungle? Halftime - I put this under Darkstep, but since there is actually a clear line you can draw, I also don't disagree if somebody sees it as a seperate genre. Dubwise - Same As Ragga Jungle Trancestep - Usually used for either Dancefloor or Chillstep, maybe give an example of what you mean? Tbh I have no idea how you can think that my Dancefloor examples are Liquid DnB and Microfunk, they are clearly way more energetic and noisy. Also the first Jumpup example is definitely not Nu Jumpup, if you listen to the entire song you can tell for sure because of the long intro and non-modern structure. I think even the small part is a very typical example of Jumpup. I think Kemal - Hostile is Darkstep, because its more agressive and has emo and punk elements. Darkstep and Techstep are generally quite similar though. That Psybreaks and Neurofunk is basically the same is one thing I agree with, I only noticed a couple of months after making this video when I listened to the genres a bit more, that its a bit pointless to differentiate between them.
@@donit. No no no no. Hardstep is a genre of Jungle, similar to Darkside, but heavier and not so dark. It has nothing to do with darkstep. Examples are DJ SS - Black or Renegade - Terrorist. Skullstep is related to Darkstep, but much harder. Check out Synthakt - Desert Sun. Technoid is way different than Techstep, it is a mix of techno and DnB. A good example is Raiden & Current Value - RM Bleeps. Crossbreed is not Hardcore Rave. Creebreed is a crossover between hard DnB (mostly Darkstep), and Hardcore Techno. An example is Lowroller - Mixbreed Soldier, another example is Frazzbass - I Lied. Its much more recent than Hardcore Rave (I see what you mean with Hardcore Rave, it comes from Breakbeat Hardcore, but don't confuse it with Hardcore Techno, it also evolves from it, but is something completely different now). Microfunk is the same as Minimal DnB. Drumfunk is focuses on complex drum beats and has nothing to do with minimal. Check out Seba and Paradox for drumfunk stuff. Atmospheric DnD (Adam F - Aromatherapy) is drum and bass, while Atmospheric Jungle (DJ Crystl - Meditation) is jungle. Thats why I told you should distinguish between Jungle and DnB. Liquid DnB builds upon Atmospheric DnB. Halftime is drum and bass with half tempo. If it has dubstep influences, you can call it Drumstep. Otherwise its just Halftime. Here is an example of Technoid Halftime: Dean Rodell - Proximity. Once again, Ragga Jungle is jungle, while Dubwise is drum and bass. Here is an example: Juju - Skylarking. Trancestep mixes psytrance and DnB. Concord Dawn is probably the most known artist of the genre. Concord Dawn - Cloud City. Dancefloor I dont think is a genre. Maybe its dancable drum and bass, but in that case it should encompass a lot of genres. Chillstep I also dont know, but should be a genre of Dubstep, not DnB. Psybreaks is not Neurofunk. Psybreaks mixes breakbeat and psytrance. Neurofunk is a distortion of funky bass, it is also psychedelic, but has nothing to do with psytrance nor breakbeat. There are other two genres related with Neurofunk that are not DnB anymore: Glitch Hop and Neuro Hop. Darkstep has no emo or punk elements. Its just dark and heavy DnB. Known artists are Switch Technique, SPL, DJ Hidden, Donny, Katharsys, Counterstrike. Kemal - Hostile is between Techstep and Darkstep, but is not the best example for Darkstep. Old Jump up is characterised by its bassline, here is another example of Old Jump Up: Aphrodite - Stalker. Nu Jump Up started with this track: Shimon & Andy C. - Body rock. Nu Jump Up is dancable and jumpable and good for partying, and thats why it used to be also called Clownstep. Then you have what I call Nu Nu Robotic Jump Up to refer to that more recent robotic sound that is mainstream right now. It is usually bad and repetitive, and even more clownstep than before. Here is a nice example: Subsonic - The Storm.
To me personally only two subgenres of dnb exist in my head. If it's melodic and uplifting or chill it's liquid if it's heavy and makes you wanna dance it's neurofunk. All these different names make little to no sense to me. Like pretty much every dnb tune by noisia to me is neuro
@@donit. Would argue that modern Jumpup is a lot bigger Neurofunk at least in the UK and is what is most commonly associated with the genre of drum and bass nowadays

nice vid, i also like that u use 2 examples per genre to give a more diverse intro to each genre
Chemical Breaks and Big Beat are basically the OST to anything "cyberspace" related in 90s and 2000s Shows and Movies😂
True, when somebody asks me irl I always just mention The Matrix
Thanks for the breakdown! I like the Atmospheric Jungle, Old school Liquid, and Jazz step. I basically got introduced to DnB by jazz drummers 🤙
Drill 'n' bass is underrated
I absolutely LOVE Modern Liquid DnB! Dancefloor is also very nice!
Aye, man you slid on this. Them Darkside joints were amazing and the ambient jungle.
Fantastic video. I adore Drum n Bass. I like the passion and love that avid listeners share and I’ve seen plenty of wholesome interactions in the community from that.

@@SkippyZii ah damn it I see it now
Pleasantly surprised to see Evil Nine make an appearance on here! Absolutely love their music, and I also enjoyed the mention of Voyager :)

Nice video. Learned a lot!
Rediscovered my love for D&B recently and your video helped me understand the specific sub-genres that get my gurn goin'
Thanks for including 2 examples each time, so we can grab the common part of them to get the specificity of the subgenre.
def the best dnb guide! thanks!
you really put a good example on most of the subgenres huh, this is cool wtffff

@@torstenjensen4708 check Tetsuo Redemption by Koan sound (classic drumstep track) on rekirdbox, you'll see
My favorite D&B Song is the powerpuff girls theme song :p
I've known about DNB subgenres for years i come here sometimes to refresh or see if I missed anything I adore DNB
Just saw a meme and i couldnt find the name of the song in it, this makes finding it so much easier. Thankyou so much!!
The only thing i wish is that ytmusic to recommend everybanger from this video, i wish a fully functional algorithm or mix so i can jam while doing something, i've never throught dnb to be this diverse im actually impressed
You have a really good taste of music ,i really enjoy your videos❤
Modern liquid and dancefloor are my favorite 🫶🏻
This is pretty awesome.
I don't think I would categorize breaks and the breakbeat subgenres as offshots of drum and bass. But, this was a lot of fun!

hell yeah, the more chilled out and melodic stuff sounds so good@@donit.
lol. had an exact same thought
Beautifully made, really appreciated

I love this, thank you!
Amazing to know this 😂 everything for me was jungle I'm afraid 🤣🤣
Very useful video, thanks for sharing knowledge.
Thank you for making this .
man dark step takes me back to midnight club 3
Thank you for expanding my knowledge of dnb ☺️
Great video, great examples!
my head is spinning. all my life i have only known jungle and breakcore
13. Darkstep 3:33
"certain type of bass" you are talking about the reese bass right?
Also it's funny how you merged the breakbeat scene and jungle dnb scene together. I usually split them but I get your point.

Do you have an example you wanna share? I'm not sure if I fully understand what you mean.

I think he refers to halftime

@@donit. Thanks! It was a banger so was hoping i'd get the track name
From psytrance I probably most like psybreaks and my favorite is Cybernetika
Some of these are breakbeat subgenres
yeah, its both breakbeat and dnb
Does Crossbreed fit under this umbrella?
which song starts at 4:51 ? because its not the one on screen
The track names for Liquid DnB are wrong, sorry for that. The first one is acutally donnie dubson & stunna - forever and the second one is The Invaderz - So Low (DJ Marky And Bungle mix)
can you tell me what subgenre is music like "Stomping Ground" - Formula or "Bands" - Jenks (UK)
very nice video
Skullstep and crossbreed were missing
also drumfunk
Dancefloor (modern jumpup) and modern liquid is basically what hospital records with forza horizon today
Was there meant to a 3 slide?
I forgo💀, but instead there are two 2 slides
No artcore in this is a crime. still a solid video tho
Well, I can't blame you for adding the break into drum and bass, but you missed adding the west coast break, which started the florida break, the progressive break, the baltimore club, and the hardcore breaks that would be its revived version of hardcore rave which in turn is known as breakbeat hardcore or oldskool hardcore!!!

add minimal dnb as a subgenre such as some of the 1985 label stuff like visages alix perez skeptical etc but otherwise decent video
what about halfstep, deep dnb and minimal dnb?
6:17 Sorry, Gucci Belt is not Drumstep, but it's actually a Jump-Up DnB song with Drumstep hooks attached.
I guess that might be true... still the part I played is drumstep I would say
Where does Dubstep fit in?

@@xicyDJx no mate, i was told that its a whole subgenre called "bristol dnb" and all those sofa sound, overview uk, 1985 music, Flexout and even Critical (o.O) are among that style lebels. so i am a bit confused now... i thought those labels are Deep/Minimal...
@@LF7D_ and what i am saying is that you can sort of put bristol dnb under the deep/minimal umbrella... if even Markus Wingz who i know personally says so... i mean its just me telling you so believe me or not... but thats my whole stance on it.^^
need belgian dnb 😈
Noob question, why do some people hate Jump Up?
Well I dont hate it, but maybe check out this guy music.ishkur.com/JumpUp?query=Jumpup
Some weird demo choices in there.
which ones do you not like?
@@donit.The first example of neurofunk is poorly chosen. The second is ok. Similar to Liquid, I would differentiate between old and new. Examples of new would be Prolix - Beat Down or State of Mind - Giant VIP. But all in all a very informative video!
Im kind surprised crossbreed and halftime aren't in this. granted it is a bit niche
do you have any examples for these?
What was #3 ?
I just accidentally put the number 2 for number 3. So there are 2 number 2 now, but there isn't genre that's missing or that I removed.
Cool concept for a video but the choice of examples for jump up and neurofunk are …. Interesting. those are some of the most popular subgenres and the examples do not capture the sound well. Based off those I would imagine the accuracy for genres I’m not as familiar with are also questionable. Also where is liquid funk? And halftime? And calling modern liquid not “real” liquid is pretty shady lmao like why is that necessary when explaining the genre
Maybe you think of more modern varients of the genres, but I think the examples for jump up and neurofunk are very typical... What examples would you have chosen?
What people call liquid funk is usually either liquid dnb or microfunk. Halftime is something I would count under Darkstep, though here I think its also ok to see it as a seperate genre.
And sorry if it came across that way, but I didn't intend to call modern liquid dnb no real liquid dnb, I only used the word to differentiate between it and the one that existed first. Thats also why I put it in quotes, because I wanted to emphasize that none of them is more "real" than the other.
where crossbreed
I would usually count that under Hardcore Rave. But some people differentiate between them as Hardcore Rave being the "oldschool" genre and Crossbreed the more modern one, I think thats fair too.
This guy was bored and just started making shit up 😂😂
For example?
Microfunk is minimal dnb bro 😂
yes its different words for the same thing
@Donit you forgot Skullstep/Militarystep
militarystep? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_step
@@donit. maybe he refers to footwork.
@blackjo56 *me slient for moment to 2024 cuz he's being the smartest shit for Skullstep fans*
Half of the genres in the video are not DnB. Florida Breaks? Is that a joke? Many genres are also wrong. And many more are missing.
Maybe if you see Breaks as a seperate genre, but I don't think there's any subgenre in there that wasn't at least very strongly influenced by DnB or Breaks.
Regarding your alleged wrong and missing genres, it would be helpful if you could be a bit more specific there, what do you think is wrong or missing?
@@donit. Theres a genre called breakbeat that encompasses everything you call breaks. Hardcore rave is definitely not DnB. Jungle makes a bridge between Breakbeat Hardcore and DnB, but is also a distinct genre, but thats ok if you put it inside DnB genre. First Jump Up example you mention is not the old Jump Up, is actually more turned to the Nu Jump Up you later present. Old Jump Up is a subgenre of Jungle (check this one for old Jump Up: Dead Dred - Dred bass). Big Beat is a subgenre of breakbeat (The Prodigy is not DnB). Kemal - Hostile is more Techstep than Darkstep, so not a good example. A better example is DJ Hidden - The Narrators (Eye-D remix). What you call Psybreaks is actually Neurofunk, you should remove the examples you call Neurofunk and replace them by the ones you call Psybreaks. The first one you call Neurofunk (Breakage) seems more Techstep / Drumfunk. The second one (Counterstrike) seems more Techstep / Darkstep (check instead the more recent Counterstrke work, most of it is Neurofunk). Breakcore is also not DnB. It is a unique genre, more turned to Breaks and Hardcore Techno. But Drill and Bass is a mix of Breakcore and DnB. The examples you call Drumstep are Nu Jump Up. A good example of Drumstep is Rusko - Everyday (Netsky Remix). The first example you call Dancefloor is Liquid Dnb, the second one is more turned to Liquid and Microfunk. Missing genres: Halftime / Halfstep (different than Drumstep), Technoid, Skullstep, Crossbreed, Drumfunk, Dubwise, Trancestep, Hardstep (Jungle), Atmospheric DnB (not the Jungle one), Neuro Jump Up (Neurofunk + Nu Jump Up), Abstract DnB (well you can ignore this one). Check out some Zardonic stuff too, he combines DnB with Metal. I may be missing some genres too.
@@birdman8375 I agree that Hardcore Rave is more Hardcore than it is DnB, but I would say its a subgenre of both, since it has strong enough influences from both. Same with Breakcore (including The Prodigy).
Regarding the missing genres:
Technoid - Whats the difference to Techstep?
Skullstep, Hardstep - Same as Darkstep.
Crossbreed - Same as Hardcore Rave
Drumfunk - Same as Microfunk
Atmospheric DnB - Whats the difference to Atmospheric Jungle?
Halftime - I put this under Darkstep, but since there is actually a clear line you can draw, I also don't disagree if somebody sees it as a seperate genre.
Dubwise - Same As Ragga Jungle
Trancestep - Usually used for either Dancefloor or Chillstep, maybe give an example of what you mean?
Tbh I have no idea how you can think that my Dancefloor examples are Liquid DnB and Microfunk, they are clearly way more energetic and noisy.
Also the first Jumpup example is definitely not Nu Jumpup, if you listen to the entire song you can tell for sure because of the long intro and non-modern structure. I think even the small part is a very typical example of Jumpup.
I think Kemal - Hostile is Darkstep, because its more agressive and has emo and punk elements. Darkstep and Techstep are generally quite similar though.
That Psybreaks and Neurofunk is basically the same is one thing I agree with, I only noticed a couple of months after making this video when I listened to the genres a bit more, that its a bit pointless to differentiate between them.
@@donit. No no no no. Hardstep is a genre of Jungle, similar to Darkside, but heavier and not so dark. It has nothing to do with darkstep. Examples are DJ SS - Black or Renegade - Terrorist. Skullstep is related to Darkstep, but much harder. Check out Synthakt - Desert Sun. Technoid is way different than Techstep, it is a mix of techno and DnB. A good example is Raiden & Current Value - RM Bleeps. Crossbreed is not Hardcore Rave. Creebreed is a crossover between hard DnB (mostly Darkstep), and Hardcore Techno. An example is Lowroller - Mixbreed Soldier, another example is Frazzbass - I Lied. Its much more recent than Hardcore Rave (I see what you mean with Hardcore Rave, it comes from Breakbeat Hardcore, but don't confuse it with Hardcore Techno, it also evolves from it, but is something completely different now). Microfunk is the same as Minimal DnB. Drumfunk is focuses on complex drum beats and has nothing to do with minimal. Check out Seba and Paradox for drumfunk stuff. Atmospheric DnD (Adam F - Aromatherapy) is drum and bass, while Atmospheric Jungle (DJ Crystl - Meditation) is jungle. Thats why I told you should distinguish between Jungle and DnB. Liquid DnB builds upon Atmospheric DnB. Halftime is drum and bass with half tempo. If it has dubstep influences, you can call it Drumstep. Otherwise its just Halftime. Here is an example of Technoid Halftime: Dean Rodell - Proximity. Once again, Ragga Jungle is jungle, while Dubwise is drum and bass. Here is an example: Juju - Skylarking. Trancestep mixes psytrance and DnB. Concord Dawn is probably the most known artist of the genre. Concord Dawn - Cloud City. Dancefloor I dont think is a genre. Maybe its dancable drum and bass, but in that case it should encompass a lot of genres. Chillstep I also dont know, but should be a genre of Dubstep, not DnB. Psybreaks is not Neurofunk. Psybreaks mixes breakbeat and psytrance. Neurofunk is a distortion of funky bass, it is also psychedelic, but has nothing to do with psytrance nor breakbeat. There are other two genres related with Neurofunk that are not DnB anymore: Glitch Hop and Neuro Hop.
Darkstep has no emo or punk elements. Its just dark and heavy DnB. Known artists are Switch Technique, SPL, DJ Hidden, Donny, Katharsys, Counterstrike. Kemal - Hostile is between Techstep and Darkstep, but is not the best example for Darkstep. Old Jump up is characterised by its bassline, here is another example of Old Jump Up: Aphrodite - Stalker. Nu Jump Up started with this track: Shimon & Andy C. - Body rock. Nu Jump Up is dancable and jumpable and good for partying, and thats why it used to be also called Clownstep. Then you have what I call Nu Nu Robotic Jump Up to refer to that more recent robotic sound that is mainstream right now. It is usually bad and repetitive, and even more clownstep than before. Here is a nice example: Subsonic - The Storm.
@@birdman8375 soooo what about minimal/deep?
I think the breakcore examples are terrible, those sounds more like drill and bass
they are quite different, breakcore girl and igorrr have good examples
maybe something more distorted or energetic would have gotten the point across better, I still think theyre Breakcore though.
Please educate yourself more. Talk to old people in the scene, watch documentaries.
what parts do you disagree with?
@@donit. I think u misssed Deep. It cannot be related to jazz, nor liquid, nor "microfunk"
@@donit. you also missed Technoid, Techno DnB
@@blackjo56 Deep Drum n Bass? Can you give some examples? when I google it I only get results related to liquid dnb.
@@blackjo56 whats the difference between those and tech step?
To me personally only two subgenres of dnb exist in my head. If it's melodic and uplifting or chill it's liquid if it's heavy and makes you wanna dance it's neurofunk. All these different names make little to no sense to me. Like pretty much every dnb tune by noisia to me is neuro
Liquid DnB and Neurofunk are probably the two most popular subgenres at least, so I understand where youre coming from
@@donit. Would argue that modern Jumpup is a lot bigger Neurofunk at least in the UK and is what is most commonly associated with the genre of drum and bass nowadays
