From demo + style.

demostyle (not comparable)
- (demoscene) Of a musical style popular in the demoscene, involving tracker modules usually assembled from samples played at various pitches.
1999, Luke Drelick, “ZZT”, in alt.games.final-fantasy (Usenet):Yea, it's got some good GDM's... The music is basically a cross between House, Demostyle, and Classical (don't ask). It's got some killer music in it, like Click.gdm, and Bounce.gdm (take a guess what that is :) )
2000, eggbird, “Need sound files for tracking”, in alt.music.mods (Usenet):download modules in the same style as your ideas , and extract the samples. that is by far the best way to get suitable samples. Archives very often contain bad or useless samples except for this very one single particular style/setup/idea/emotion/etc.
