My chosen genre and the inspiration behind it

• The genre that have chosen is alternative as I find it is quite a unknown genre that is not as common as other genres such as pop or rap. Also it doesn’t really follow a set pattern so the audience will not know what to expect as it doesn’t follow a generic path.

• The conventions of my genre is that the alternative scene is unconventional and is not known throughout the world as widely as pop or the metal genre that have become very popular in recent years.
