| | Music genre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Jazz is a musical form that grew out of a cross-fertilization of folk blues, ragtime, and European music, particularly band music. |  | | Melodic music is a term that covers various genres of non-classical music which are primarily characterised by the dominance of a single strong melody line. |  | | Traditional pop music overlaps a number of these categories: big band music and musical comedy, for example, are closely allied to traditional pop. |

| | Music of Puerto Rico - Genres: Plena |
 | | Similar music genres, according to Lopez Cruz, are the "corrido" of Mexico, the "romance" of Spain, the calypso of Trinidad, the "porro" of Colombia and the merengue of the Dominican Republic. |  | | Music historian Francisco Lopez Cruz makes a distinction between the music and dance components of the plena, claiming that the musical elements can be traced back to songs as around 1875, preceeding the dance elements which can accurately be said to have its roots in Ponce. |  | | They validated the plena as a traditional music genre, for the younger generations of Puerto Ricans who were only familiar with salsa and thought that the old folk music was passé. |

| | Genre and recalcitrance. Country music's move uptown |
 | | Honky-tonk music is the music of the exile, of the man who comes to the city, and watches as his dreams are shattered by the neon lights, taverns and estrangement of city streets. |  | | The specter of country music being obliterated, unless it cloaked itself in the dominant music, pop music, is still invoked in Nashville today to explain the abandoning of honky-tonk instrumentation in the 1950s. |  | | Country music, before during and after the 1950s, was consciously created by people, not forces, and their beliefs about the nature and implications of change in the music was what ultimately transformed it. |

| | Heavy Metal Music by Genre Including Death Metal and Black Metal and Grindcore and Thrash |
 | | While this music was highly complex and often inventive in structure, it remained roughly within the confines of rock-based mainstream music and passed its technique on to the underground death metal, thrash and grindcore to follow. |  | | When hardcore and metal collided thrash emerged as a fusion of punk song stylings and musical ethos with metal riff styles and topics. |  | | Where death metal broke music into raw rhythm and structure, black metal built upon that foundation in technique by exploring the use of melody as the central principle of songwriting. |
