I always get influenced by the genre I listen to at a certain period and it transposes in my music,so can't define myself yet.

music I can do poetry over, but that ranges from acoustic guitar to harsh noise to electronic hardcore/punk (peers call it chipthrash) I'll probably upload pieces that are just poems as well

^this. I really admired your work in 2012 and will try to move in that direction, as well. Glad you're here!

Indie-Classical, Contemporary classical, minimalist, experimental, electro-acoustic.
Classical is a pretty 'loaded' term so I try to unload it

It varies. I've been involved in experimental, classical, jazz, electronic, electroacoustic, acousmatic, various pop styles and other things that I can't remember right now. I've started off with a more experimental track this week. I might do something completely different for next week, who knows? This could be an opportunity to get some of things out of my system that have been bugging me but I haven't found a place for.

That scene is so 30 seconds ago!

I guess we all are trying to give some orientation about what to expect, given that what I've heard in this community is miles ahead (both in quality and "openmindedness") from a lot of more hyped commercial stuff (commercial as in "sold for profit", not as in "you sell millions and I'm obscure so I'm better that thou").

To answer the question, I make Electronic music. Can be glitchy, thematic, pop, rock, hip hop, breaks, big breaks, bigger breaks, old school, new school, graduate school, house, experimental, happy, sad, happy-sad... whatever works in whatever combination really. When it happens to work, that is.

Anyways, I look forward to this

Weekly Beats is for me genre free. Everything is made with computer so it's mostly some kind of electronic music.
First track i'm (still) working on for WB is called: The Drink I Would Not Drink To Get Drunk. (Lemmy influenced post-futuristic-R'n'B)

Lo-fi electronic pop I guess?

All over the shot! Chip / techno / rave / jazz / fusion / metal / 80s rock / synthwave / dub.

Whatever comes out in the moment :-P

Completed WB2012 and it nearly destroyed me (and defs helped destroy a relationship) but it was a great musical year. WB2014 started to divebomb mid way and I let it go so it didn't effect my work life. This year I'm already hating my tunes / pulling last minute all-nighter and ready to quit! Maybe other peoples tunes can inspire me...

Kraut oriented electronic music. We call it Krautelektro in case the musical focus is set on electronics and Elektrokraut if we place the emphasis on Kraut.
