The post-rock sound incorporates characteristics from a variety of musical genres, includingambient, jazz, electronica, and experimental.[3] Early post-rock groups also often exhibited strong influence from the krautrock of the '70s, particularly borrowing elements of "motorik", the characteristic krautrock rhythm.[3][23][30][31]
Post-rock compositions often make use of repetition of musical motifs and subtle changes with an extremely wide range of dynamics. In some respects, this is similar to the music ofSteve Reich, Philip Glass, and Brian Eno, pioneers of minimalism.[23] Typically, post-rock pieces are lengthy and instrumental, containing repetitive build-ups of timbre, dynamics and texture.
