One genre of EDM that hasnt been talked about yet on Quoth The Raver is glitch. Glitch as a genre gets its unique sound from the unusual sounds it uses and the general random structure of the music. The kinds of sounds that are usually considered unwanted or the sign of low quality recording (white/pink noise, pops, hisses, quick snaps or disconnects) are all used in glitch to create very cool and original sounding music.

The struggle with making Glitch music is finding a way to make all this randomness sound whole. After all, music is built around patterns and melody. One way to do this is combine Glitch with another genre; using Glitch sounds and techniques but letting the other genre guide the rhythm and melody.

So here we have The Glitch Mob! A combination of Glitch and Hip-Hop. They just released a new EP today and I'l be going to their concert in two weeks so what a great time to share their music! Take a look:
