Hear What Sounds Like Literally Every Genre of Music With This Instrument
There are many different genres of music. Like a lot . Don’t believe me? Try this time-consuming tool called Every Noise at Once.
When you load the page in your browser , you will be greeted by a huge wall of colored text links. Each represents a specific genre of music. It has everything from Taiwanese pop to dark psycho trance, Danish jazz, steam jerking, Brazilian gospel, funk rock, discofox and good old hip-hop. With over 1,500 different music genres at stake, it has it all .
If you hover over one of the genres, you will be presented with an example of an artist and song that reflects the sound of the genre. If you click that link, it will even play you this example song. As you explore, keep in mind that scrolling down will make the music more organic, upward more mechanical and electronic, on the left more dense and atmospheric, and on the right sharper and firmer.
But wait, that’s not all! When you hover over a genre, you will also see an arrow pointing to the right. If you click that arrow, you will be taken to a new page that lists all the artists that fit that genre, each with their own examples. If you click the arrow on one of these artists, you will be taken to Spotify, where you can listen to that artist’s library. If you want to hear every song featured on the homepage, you can do so with this nearly 111 hour Spotify playlist :
Or you can listen to playlists for each specific genre here . Say goodbye to the day!
