This is why millennials have had to go retro for inspiration.

I like Millennial pop music, EDM is just Gen X House music remixed, fine by meHanarchy Montanarchy wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:28 am To be clear, are we talking about such 90s gems as 1993 #1 song, "Informer" by Snow, or 1997 #1 song "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls?
No, my friend. 90s culture and music are trash and have been repudiated by millennials with superior taste. That is why you Gen-X old farts don't like it.
Pop culture has sucked since the suits took over in the 70s/80s. Can’t judge anything by the Top 40.Hanarchy Montanarchy wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:28 am To be clear, are we talking about such 90s gems as 1993 #1 song, "Informer" by Snow, or 1997 #1 song "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls?

I would say Hip Hop & House are their own thing, I know Boomers make no claims to itHanarchy Montanarchy wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:41 am House music is a literal remix of disco and soul. It was literally DJs spinning disco and soul records at house parties.
Grunge is just a remix of blues based rock with a little prog, played by people who such at guitar.
Gen-X didn't invent shit - just remixed the generation before them, poorly.
Bruh. Gangster rap and country music peaked in the 90s. Also, Nirvana and the rest of the shitty grunge thing was a 90s invention.Hanarchy Montanarchy wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:41 am House music is a literal remix of disco and soul.

The suits have always been in charge. Impressarios with deep pockets and expensive suits controlled what got produced in the 1790s. They preferred simple plots with a lot of room for flashy stage productions to quality music and interesting stories.SuburbanFarmer wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:40 amPop culture has sucked since the suits took over in the 70s/80s.

You would say that, because you would say anything to preserve the pretense of Gen-X originality. The simple fact is that they are remixes.Smitty-48 wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:44 amI would say Hip Hop & House are their own thing, I know Boomers make no claims to itHanarchy Montanarchy wrote: Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:41 am House music is a literal remix of disco and soul.

I don't know what distinctively Millennial music would be, I don't see the new music being invented by Millennials
