Group.8 kimVillegasLegaspiConcepcion BautistaElectronic musicElectronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments and electronic music technology in its production, an electronic musician being a musician who composes and/or performs such music. In general a distinction can be made between sound produced using electromechanical means and that produced using electronic technology.Examples of electromechanical sound producing devices include the telharmonium, Hammond organ, and the electric guitar.The first electronic devices for performing music were developed at the end of the 19th century, and shortly afterward Italian Futurists explored sounds that had previously not been considered musical.Electronic musicLate 1980s to 1990sThe trend has continued to the present day with modern nightclubs worldwide regularly playing electronic dance music (EDM). Nowadays, electronic dance music has radio stations,websites,and publications like Mixmag dedicated solely to the genre. Moreover, the genre has found commercial and cultural significance in the United States and North America, thanks to the wildly popular big room house/EDM sound that has been incorporated into U.S. pop musicand the rise of large scale commercial raves such as Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland (festival) and Ultra Music Festival.2000s and 2010sIn recent years, as computer technology has become more accessible andmusic softwarehas advanced, interacting with music production technology is now possible using means that bear no relationship to traditionalmusical performancepractices for instance,laptopperformance (laptronica) andlive coding. In general, the termLive PArefers to any live performance of electronic music, whether with laptops, synthesizers, or other devices.

Nu metalNu metal (also known as n-metaland aggro-metal) is a form of alternative metal that combines elements of heavy metal music with elements of other music genres, including hip hop, alternative rock, funk and grunge.Nu metal is part of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal.Nu metal bands have derived influences and elements from a variety of musical genres, including electronic music, funk, grunge, gothic rock, hardcore punk, death metal, hip hop, punk rock, dance music, new wave music, industrial metal, jazz, post-punk, symphonic rock and synthpop.Nu metal is also influenced by multiple genres of heavy metal music including death metal, rap metal, groove metal, funk metal, alternative metal and thrash metal.Predecessors and influencesAlternative metal, industrial, funk metal, alternative rock, experimental metal, rap metal, grunge and industrial metal bands of the 1980s and 1990s including Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jane's Addiction, Primus, Rage Against the Machine, Helmet, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Godflesh, Nine Inch Nails and Ministry have been credited with laying groundwork for the development of nu metal by combining heavy guitar riffs with pop music structures, and drawing influences from subgenres of heavy metal and other music genres.Early development and rise (earlymid 1990s)

Joel McIver acknowledged the nu metal pioneers Korn as starting the New Wave of American Heavy Metal, which is a heavy metal music movement that started in the 1990s.The origins of the term nu metal are often attributed to the work of producerRoss Robinson, who has been called "The Godfather of Nu Metal".In 1994, Korn releasedtheir self-titled debut album, which is widely considered the first nu metal album.1998 is generally recognized as the year when nu metal broke into the mainstream with Korn's third album,Follow the Leader, which peaked at number 1 on the Billboard 200,became a multi-platinum hit, and paved the way for other nu metal bands.

During the 2010s, there was a discussion within media of a possible nu metal revival because of bands fusing nu metal with other genres, the return of nu metal bands, extant bands going back to the nu metal genre and nu metal bands forming. Despite the lack of radio play and popularity, some nu metal bands recaptured some of their former popularity as they released albums in a nu metal style. Korn's 2010 studio albumKorn III: Remember Who You Aresold 63,000 copies during its first week of release and peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 200.Where are you now- Skrillex
