Wel-lo-ho, kids! Feel free to use this thread so that other people would be able to help you identify what style (if jazz, then what kind of jazz; if classical, then what kind of classical music; etc.) a passage of your interest is in.
For example: granted my rather very poor knowledge of the characteristics of various classical music styles, I've been wondering in what style this passage on (deep breaths, everyone) "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast" is in. It starts at 1:31 on the track. Sounds a bit like something by Bach, only slowed down. Obviously, there is a low register melody on repeat. Does this sound a bit like Baroque or what is it?

Proto-Math Rock.
Cool thread idea.

I don't know what I'd call the style of the majority of the music on my Superdensecrushloadfactoid EP.

OK ... how about this one?
... or does it sound too amateurish to belong to any style?

The first one sounds like late Romantic, with maybe a bit of Impressionism and some Copland?

What about this one? :
Does it sound more like late Romantic or Impressionism? Edited by Dayvenkirq - May 15 2016 at 21:53 |

Closer to Romantic, but not particularly either. Melodically it sounds like a hymn or a musical theater song more than a classical piece.

^ I see. I will definitely look into these. Thank you.
By the way, how do you get your information (in text and on audio) for the characteristics of these styles? Did you have to study all of them formally?

A children's tune, nursery rhyme; think Twinkle,Twinkle Little Star-- basic major and chromatic ascentions resolving to a soothing emotive. |

^ Interesting. Duly noted (even if this does sound different from what Tony suggested).

How about this one (minus Eno and Manzanera's parts) ? :
Can't be a nursery rhyme, right?

Looks like a pass on Nico's "You Forget To Answer". OK. How about Anthony Phillips' "Collections" ? :
I wonder what style this kind of orchestral music is grounded in.

^ video clip not posting again, but no matter-- 'Collections' sounds like what John Lennon ~ and Paul too, to an extent ~ was trying to do right around the same time: Heroin-rock, basically. An aimless and somewhat sad time in popular songcraft.
Style? I'd call it a Lament, a song of loss. |

^ 1) See if the Nico clip is fixed for you now.
2) I've skimmed through some material on Wiki. You mean "the lament" of the Baroque and Romantic periods, correct?
