What is EBM?????

[mas]

Maybe a bit a stupid question. :oops:

But what the hell is EBM??? I've already read that quiet a lot but I don't have any idea what sort of music that is.

[mas]

is that such a stupid or such a difficult question that nobody answers?

[Merlot]

Just a guess, but maybe Electronic B????? Music

Actually....I have never heard of EBM. So yeah, c'mon guys, what the hell is it????

I've found the comment underneath on the access virus page. It is a description of a soundbank. Unfortunately I don't have any time to try it out because I go abroad in a few weeks and I've got a lot to do before.

>>This soundset is EBM and progressive dance oriented.

I've read this expression on other pages as well but nowhere an explanation so I'm just wondering.

[DIGITAL SCREAMS]

My guess is: Electronic Bass Music

Ah but thats a guess......if you want to really find out ask the guys on this forum www.darksonus.com

I post there....and sometimes I get raped for liking 80's music. THey like their depressive gothic/industrial/ebm styles. Fair play...music diveristy is a good thing.

And you ask this after you said;

Expressed Breast Milk?

Expresso Breast Milk. There isn't anything quite like it

[CJ]

"Electronic Body Music" was the correct answer . . .

Hehehe.

How about "Ebola's Beautiful Mutations"
or......."Ebony's Big Muchachas"
or......."Evan's Breathtaking Marksmanship"

Now I'm out of ideas.... :D

[jasedee]

I think it should be changed to Electronic Booty Music

[Panopticon]

EBM has been used as a term describing a certain branch of industrial in the last couple years. I remember a Keyboard magazine article from a year or two ago that was talking about Front 242 and calling them EBM, but who knows? Genre classification is always imprecise, and most of the time grossly inaccurate in a broad, sweeping sense as well.

I like that ebola thing of Hollowcell :lol:

[xmm0]

EBM is electronic body music, the term was coined by Front 242. Recommendations for an introduction are http://www.rantradio.com/rr-industrial128.pls and www.ebm-radio.de Both webcasts go beyond EBM and play Industrial, Electro, and Wave as well. However, if you cannot say that sounds like "Industrial/Electro/Wave" then, yessir you are in fact listening to EBM. Alas, modern EBM often takes on some of the qualities of Trance (ick!) but much harder, so that is also a pointer.

Our music falls into the EBM or Electro definition. Check it out at :

After listening to the sample I think it stands for Erasure Bronski Beat Music. You need to listen to it with blue jeans and a tight white T-shirt on. I was just waiting for Andy Bell to dive into one of his falsetto, sprawling melodies.

Electro Beat Music

Pipe Organ Owners and Players
