I'm curious, if each color of magic had their own genre(s) of music, what would they be?
I would figure something like the following???

:w:

: Gospel, country, baroque
:u:

: Techno

: Metal, Emo
:r:

: Punk rock, alternative, rap
:g:

: Zen, instrumental
:ur:

: Dubstep/techno

What do you guys think???

Odd, I listen to Tull, BOC, and occasionally Zeppelin, but my favorite colors are blue and black.

Seeing Blue Oyster cult in green makes me happy inside. Because the person that made that just understands what they were about.

But if we're talking music at a genre level...isn't all music red? Music is about evoking an emotional response through art and that's the very essence of what red is.

well, yes and no. serialism, for instance, is more about structures and mechanical execution than it is about emotional response. granted, it is supposed to evoke emotions, but the premise of serialist music is a series of unbending mechanical rules. that puts it somewhere in the

spectrum, probably more

.

but yeah, most popular music falls squarely in red's domain.

It's not YOUR favorite colors, it's THEIRS.

I have the psd (photoshop) file if anyone wants to hack it up. It took several hours to erase the text from a stock image, so someone might as well get some amusement out of it.

Finding bands/things of the correct length in characters at that font isn't trivial. I have no comment on OP or whether all music (or all art) is a single color.

I would like Dream Theater in Blue. To me, they are the most Blue rock band there is. Their albums are full of hidden patterns and clever technicalities.
