All the Segments

1. Cover of the Week
 - Here we go, this is is pretty self-explanatory, every week I'll post a Cover of a song that I think is good.  I'll provide my insight as well as compare and contrast the two songs.
2. Genre Clash
 - In Genre Clash, I will pick two different Genre's such as, Punk Rock, and Alternative, and pit them against each other, which has the better artists/bands? Which is more prevalent in modern music, etc.
3. Band of the Day
- In Band of the Day I'll pick one of my favorite bands and give a brief history, a bio of each member, and what genre they play, how they got started, what their history looks like, and what they might do in the future. I will also link to my favorite song by them.
4. Obscure Artist Spotlight
- In OAS, I will highlight an artist or band, that most people, have never heard of. This could be from any genre, and will be all new/modern music. YouTube Stars will most likely be put in this category.
5. Oldies but Goodies
 - In this segment I will showcase a song that I like, that most of you haven't heard in a long long time. Most oldies I like are country, like George Jones or Merle Haggard, but definitely won't be limited to that.
6. Pump-Up Music
 - Here I will post a song that will pump you up. Or at least, song that pump me up.
7. That's a Genre?
 - Non-mainstream Genres will be here. Stuff that I listen to, and the only people that listen to it that I know, I showed it to.
8. Music For Geeks
 - Here I will post a video-game song, or 8bit music, or well, music for geeks. Cause we are awesome.
9....We will see.

Welcome to Eclecticismal

Eclecticism:  a conceptual approach that does not hold rigidly to a single paradigm or set of assumptions, but instead draws upon multiple theories, styles, or ideas to gain complementary insights into a subject, or applies different theories in particular cases.


Basically, this blog is going to bring you Music, from every genre and every region. Whether it be post-rock, dubstep, hardstyle, punk, electro, metal, classical, jazz, rock and roll, blues, folk, or pretty much anything.

I'll have many segments that I'd like to show, including but not limited to:
1. Cover of the Week
2. Genre Clash
3. Band of the Day
4. Obscure Artist Spotlight
5. Oldies but Goodies
Etc..

In my next post I'll give a description of each segment named, and my other goals.
