Shameless plug: Music genres website

[GeckoYamori]

Schranz is just a German term for hard techno that got popular.

Now how did ambient influence... Pirate metal?

4 last (pretty hard) suggestions before I jump in my bed:

Screamo
Emocore
Metalcore
Horrorcore

It's user driven so someone thought that was an influence. You can see that it's right at the bottom of the list so it's scoring very low as an influence.

At some point, I'll have a daemon that will run and clean up any low scoring influences like that. The idea being that it's a gestalt of everyones opinions, even those that are trolling the system.

For example, the site knows that Drum and Bass was influenced from Jungle and Techno Dance

There's also a huge Jazz influence - particularly on artists like Goldie and Reprazent. Main reason I took to it, when normally I have little interest in dance genres, is the level of sophistication and use of space reminded me so much of great Jazz.

What about frying pan, or experimental crow, or ambient death polka? KVR is so unrepresented there...
