OUGD505 - Design Practice 2 - Studio Brief 1 - Micro-Genres of Music - Initial Thoughts

Studio Brief 1 for this module is to design an object that celebrates (or critiques) an aspect of genre's specific characteristics, be it political, aesthetic, production methods, audience demographic, key intentions or its connection to place.

We need to research into how these micro-genres help us understand wider issues about the society that created them.

INITIAL POTENTIALS;

-deep tech house
-funky tech house
-deep liquid
-workout
-house
-disco house
-speed garage
-bubblegum dance
-uk garage
-alternative dance
-pop emo
-candy pop
-vegas indie
-post disco
-rap
-hip-hop
-dance rock
-r&b
-pop rock
-indie r&b
-modern rock
-kids dance party
-bubblegum pop
-pub rock

I am planning on looking at some imagery for a few of these genres to see if I could get a better 'vibe' for them.
