minimal wave
Minimal wave is a contentiously named genre of electronic music which focuses on electronic, pre-MIDI (1982, but not pre-sequencer) instrumentation and themes of sincere, rather than ironic, detachment.〔 It comprises obscure, atypical examples of genres such as new wave, so-called "minimal" electronic or synthesizer music, electropunk, synthpop, post-punk, coldwave, electroclash and electropop.〔 Although much Minimal Wave music was created in the late 1970s and early 1980s and subsequently appeared on bootleg and one-off compilations, the genre didn't have a name until a record label of the same name began releasing compilations and reissues in the mid-2000s.〔
==Characteristics==
The genre's hallmarks include minimal musical structures,〔 relatively unpolished production,〔 and the use of analog synthesizers and drum machines manufactured in the 1970s and 1980s.〔 The instrumental arrangements featured "mechanical beats" and "short repetitive patterns", plus "noticeably synthesized drum programming and trebly, thin melodies" which emphasized the artificiality of synthesized sound.〔 Vocal arrangements "acted as a counterpoint to that artificiality."〔
Musicians in the genre were often influenced by avant-garde movements such as futurism and constructivism, and by the literature of science fiction and existentialism.〔
The music and its original releases generally has a D.I.Y. aesthetic; in the genre's original production era, most artists recorded in their home studios and released music in small quantities, on cassette or vinyl, with artwork they created themselves.〔
