Genre:
Genre - French for sort.
A conventional category that identifies pieces of music which share certain beats or set of conventions. Distinguished from musical form and musical style all songs have a certain genre that they're put in, this allows the audience to get a rough idea which genre the piece of music possibly could come from. Rock tracks may have some guitar solos which could be used as an identifier whereas, dubstep has deep drops from the chorus at times which is also an identifier.
Subgenre:
A more specific generalization of similar types of styles within a less specific genre. Subgenres are constantly changing, as they are so specific if artists in one subgenre changes their style a little this sometimes redefine the subgenre completely. Some subgenres include Indie-pop, RnB-soul, Dubstep-rock etc.
