Less than 12 months ago, Frank Kaminsky drooped on a podium chair between guard Josh Gasser and head coach Bo Ryan with his left hand buried in his messy black hair. His body language told the story of what had ensued earlier that evening. The Badgers had just lost the National Championship Game to Duke and Kaminsky, visibly depressed, was addressing the media.

On the Wikipedia page “List of electronic music genres,” house music boasts a dizzying 29 separate subgenres, while sounds like hardcore, electronica and techno sport several classifications of their own.
