Aka Meloncholia, often confused with soul or rock music. See also "The Blue Period" a term used in Art to define to the works produced by Spanish painter Pablo Picasso between 1901 and 1904, when he painted essentially monochromatic paintings in shades of blue. In music, the "blue" is often the sound of emotional loss or heartbreak, with a 1-4-5 progression using dominant 7th or minor 7th chords to give a dissonant tonality. Some EDM is bluesy. Many people say Robert Johnson invented the blues, but they never had the true blues, or they'd know better. Blues is old as life.
