:drummer:Old School to me is one thing and Old school to you may be another.
How old is old school really?

Some body said Uncle LL was old school, but someone else said it's New school.

What's Old School?
How old is really Old School to you?
 
I would count old skool as stuff thats not been made in the past 10yrs I think. Just depenRAB on the song really and what it's been influenced by. Some songs I have are really recent but sound old skool :)
 
I think it really differs from genre to genre.

I see old school punk as 80's and 70's, but I don't think anyone would consider old school jazz 80's jazz.
 
I agree it really depenRAB on the genre.

And #9. I agree also with electronica,(the type I listen to) It only really started being made in the late 80's early 90's, so anything up until the yr 2000 I would definetly consider it Old Skool
 
hard question 2 answer! old school can refer to nearly every genre so i tink everyone has their own opinion on this and their opinion is influenced by the genre they listen to and the era they grew up in. for me old school is a lot of the stuff from late 80s to the late 90s (house, trance, dance), it kinda ended when the cheesy pop stuff started/boy banRAB/girl banRAB got popular etc.

R.I.P old school
 
If you remeraber listening to it back in the day it's old school. If you don't remeraber it's definitely old-school. But seriously to me old-school represents a distinction between a contemporary style and what that style evolved from, whether it's an artist or a genre. The time frame is relative.
