In order for me to add a new style, I will require a style request to be made in the following threads given below. The style request should be in the following format, and include all required fields:
* Style Name (required). The style must be internationally accepted - no regional names for styles if possible. No micro-styles. There are some styles that are too specific or denote a minor style element. Adding these styles at this point would clog up the system. These micro-styles oftem denote only a small change from similar styles, for example, a specific lyrical or musical theme, or simply add an adjective onto an existing style. Some examples of this can be found in the metal and electronic genres.
* Alternative Names
* Genres (required). Genre/s that the style falls under must be included.
* Description (required). The style request must come with a full description of the style. Look at http://wiki.discogs.com/index.php/Style_Guide for examples. Include a musical description, common instruments and sounds, dates, example artists etc.
* Examples (links to at least 3 releases) (required)
* Associated Styles (this should make links to existing styles). Other styles that relate the the requested style must be listed.
* External citations - The style request must come with at least three trustworthy external citations of it's use.
* Notes
Style requests that do not include the required information or go against the above rules will not be added, and may be deleted from this thread. I reserve the final say in whether a style is added or not.
