Music Genres IIDX needs to see more of?

[Kyle Snyder]

I've been thinking about this for a while, and I've noticed that IIDX is lacking in some music genres. Personally, I think there should be some more Ambient and Drum'n'Bass in future IIDX styles. The reason why I say Ambient is because there's not a lot of different styles that we have in it (most are Piano Ambient). I really like Still My Words, and I'm still waiting for the day IIDX gets another Ambient song similar to that. As for Drum'n'Bass, yes, there are some tracks of that genre (some of my favorites are Empathy, Era (Step Mix), and Photongenic (really cool song, BTW)). But I've been getting into Drum'n'Bass over the past few days, and I want to see more of it in IIDX. Thoughts, anyone?

More neoclassical piano stuff, like Scorpion Fire and Presto.

Agreed Evi,

Dirge
Speedcore/hardcore (Erasermotor Phantom type)
Gabber
Electronica
HARD RAVE!!!! (one or eight style)

How about some more Human Sequencer?

More Drum and Bass? While I agree - there's a ton of DnB in IIDX. (Real, G2, The Cube, Gentle Stress, All Right, Feel It, etc, etc.) You might want to invest in earlier styles... :P

I really can't say that I want more of one genre, since there's a half-million of them in IIDX. I do wish some artists would revert back to thier roots. Kubota-san needs to go back to his ambient piano tracks. Seriously.

Edit: Come to think of it - I do miss the Big Beat genre (mostly from TaQ - so it's a long hope....)

I definitely wouldn't mind seeing more genre-bending classical pieces like Vanessa. in future styles. I would have never thought to mix Gabber and Classical, and I think it merges really nicely.

Seconding that. Kubota needs to go back to doing pieces like Foreplay and stuff like Sanctus. More of the Medieval Choir-esque songs would be nice. (Though I'd want to see composers other than Tatsh tackle it.)

I say more Drum & Bass, Hip-Hop, Breakbeats, Piano, HOUSE!!!!!! more HOUSE

[Oni140]

I think more traditional Japanese style music should be done, only ones I can think of so far are 花吹雪～IIDX LIMITED～(HanaFubuki?), 華蝶風雪 (Kachoufusetsu), and 雪月花 (Setsugekka) for right now, there are probably some more, but I don't think they've made that many traditional-like Japanese songs so far...

I'd like to see some really dark, chopped up Jungle/Drum'n'bass and/or IDM. Something along the lines of Breakage, Dom & Roland, Squarepusher, etc. I used to DJ this kind of stuff, and it was practically my whole life for a couple years. I still love it. The DnB in IIDX usually seems so watered down.

[PICASIO PICASIO]

Extratone and Power Electronics. Noizecore would be fun too!!

Real: Electronica. I hate that word, but if it means more COSMIC RAISE, I'm fine.

[Creed Bratton]

jungle, experimental rock, speedcore, post rock, digi rock, oldschool rave, slowcore, big beat, visual kei, trancecore

[ellipse]

Rock That Sounds Like It Came From America, But Didn't

(read: Wana and four-leaf)

For that matter, more of the Dennis Guinn is-that-even-hiphop would do.
