It's evocative of emotion, it's fun, it's catchy, and it is most importantly. But I had to go with my favourite, the raucous hooting, hollering, country breakdown in the midst of a violent metal song promising war between the two factions (the album "Warring Factions" is a complete story of battles between generals representing opposite sides, and this one of the main climaxes in the story) is brilliant. From saxophones and organs in progressive extreme metal, it was very difficult to pick out just one "G+G" moment from them. Their whole album has a few "G+G" moments, but this one tops the rest because from metal to dubstep seemed impossible until you hear it done.Īnd now to Example #3: Ansur's "An Exercise in Depth of Field." Ansur has always been one to try and break the rules of "genre" and have always been very hard to describe. It's challenging, it's different, it's so wonderfully unique and incredibly well done. From a powerful progressive metal song to an electronic, funky, little dub-step track, and then to build it up to metal again. The transition between "The Guest of Divinity" and "Chrysanthemum" is something that has as far as I know, never been tackled in music before. With their incredibly creative 16 minute EP "The Cycle" (which you can listen to as one long flowing, infinitely repeatable track) Bispora gave us a strong, cohesive piece of music as well as excitement for more to come. Usually when a new band with talent puts out an EP, it's very tantalizing, there are hints of what could be there, and there's a chance these guys could do something awesome once they start to refine. It's not often that the very first EP by such an experimental, progressive and unique band comes together as a strong piece of work. A treat to listen to, an incredible journey, and that vibrant, energetic guitar coursing through the spine gives this song a "G+G" moment.Įxample #2: The young metalheads from San Diego, CA known as Bispora burst onto the scene out of nowhere last year in 2011 and caught a lot of well-respected metalheads by surprise. This song gets a nod at a genreburst because years ago when I listened to it it was the first example of a distorted electronic guitar being used in a song that was designed for a smoky, pulsating, lights-flashing dance floor. "It's not a song, it's a journey." When they are at their best, IM tends to bring you anywhere and everywhere on their journeys. Heavyweight is one of their best tracks, highlighted by what the top YouTube comment has to say.

Here are a few of my favourite examples, I will discuss why afterwards, and I do recommend to give the full tracks a listen-to if you have the time.Įxample #1: Infected Mushroom's "Heavyweight"Įxample #3: Ansur's "An Exercise in Depth of Field"Įxample #1: The psytrance artists Infected Mushroom are some of the most creative electronic music artists out there today. 30 seconds where the song transitions from one genre into another.

It's when genre is transcended in music, when something you have NEVER heard before ni music, when completely and utterly unique comes into existence.įor sake of concision, the working definition of a "moment" by this blog, is around 30 seconds. When the indie track you're listening to transitions into a groovy stoner rock song. When your electronic, pulsing, psy-trance track has an incredible guitar riff in it. What is, "genrebursting"? It's that moment when the progressive-metal song you are listening to all of a sudden breaks down into a country hoe-down. Moments of goosebumps, and moments of genre-bursting.
