Music style guide

Glitch hop

Glitch hop connects hip-hop-influenced rhythm with deliberately fragmented electronic sound. Edits, digital artifacts and tightly shaped bass can become part of the groove rather than interruptions to it.

What to listen for

Focus on the swing and the placement of tiny rhythmic details. The busiest sounds often make more sense when heard against the underlying beat. Use the artist profiles below to hear how different musicians approach this sound. These are listening connections, rather than a claim that each artist works exclusively within one style.
