The term "Mechanical Music" is used when, for example, a music track (usually electronic music) is characterized by elements of "mechanical sound design."

"Mechanical sound design" refers to the use of techniques such as time stretching, re-pitching, and looping (typically with very tight or extremely long loop times) in the sound design process.

IMPORTANT: The warping algorithms offered by Ableton Live are originally the main solution for achieving mechanical sound design in its true essence (beats mode, re-pitch).
Example: I take an electronic music track and stretch it to extreme levels (700-800-999 bpm) until I get interesting textures both audibly and creatively, using Ableton warping modes like beats or re-pitch. Then I can chop most interesting parts to obtain Mechanical Music / Mechanical Sound Design

musical identity crisis

When a person can't decide on what to listen to so they end up jumping all over the place.
I couldn't decide what to listen to. I started w/ ska, went to pop punk, 90s country, the soundtrack to Dear Evan Hansen, and finally settled on early 2000s Taylor Swift. I was having a full blown musical identity crisis.

Laser Music

Electronic music. Typically heard at raves or European discos. Sounds like a fire fight from an 80s G.I. Joe episode (all of their guns shot laser beams).

A hallmark of Laser Music is a highly repetitive beat and "laser sounds" (e.g. pew pew pew pew beeet beet beet beet, etc) that requires a heavy dose of illicit drugs (ecstasy and the like) to enjoy.
Person A: "They said they were gonna be at xyz club tonight and that we should go"
Person B: "Xyz club? That's a laser music club! Fuck that!"
Person A: "What? You mean you are fresh out of glow sticks and ecstasy?"

Post-Music

Post-music refers to a genre of sound art that transcends traditional music conventions, often abandoning melody, harmony, and rhythm. It explores uncharted sonic territories, incorporating elements like noise, drone, texture, and atmosphere. Post-music challenges our understanding of music itself, embracing experimentation and pushing the boundaries of auditory experience. It's a realm where sound becomes a medium for artistic expression, liberated from traditional musical structures and expectations.
"The artist's latest release is a pioneering work in post-music, blurring the lines between sound and noise, and challenging listeners to reconsider their assumptions about the very nature of music itself."
