Music styles

I just posted a song, called "Another Rock Song."
Wanna guess which style of music it is?
.
My question is this: Why does Bandmix not recognize "Rock" as a style of music?
I had to select "other," which seems kind-of retarded to me . . . .

Enjoyable and somewhat reminiscent of a classic from the 60's though for the life of me the name and artist escapes me.

Thanks for posting music on our musical web site. :wink:

Thanks.
.
So, seeing as most of the people here are rock musicians, shouldn't Bandmix allow us to call rock songs - "rock?"
. . . or has this subject already come up before?

They should either include rock as a genre or expand it to include other rock genres such as Progressive, Rockabilly, New Wave, etc.

Not too long ago they asked what change we'd like to see.
( the question was posed on Facebook )

My response ... allow us to type in our own genre'

I don't think our music fits too neatly in " Christian contemporary "

Do you?

Yeah.

I don't know how many years of my life have been wasted trying to decide the "closest within sick and twisted reason" to fill in the genre box whenever I post a song. What a PIA that is. Almost makes ya wanna quit playin.........

I always just put the style of music next the title line in Parenthesis.

Ei.... Welcome to the Jungle(Rock song)



It seems to give a good explanation.
