Is there a name for the "new" music of today?
In recent weeks I have been in several business from large medical complexes to grocery stores, and small businesses. Most of the places are populated with what I presume are Millennials. There is usually some music playing softly in the background.
It is not objectionable, and I and NOT complaining about it.
My question is a LOT of it is women with very high pitched voices, many of the lyrics are just the same short phrase repeated over and over and over and over and over, with no real story or description of an event or theme like the classic rock I prefer. (Yea, another old white dude here)
And they are using what I have to assume is pure computer generated sounds akin to the way music sounded when we played music backwards trying to hear the hidden music we had heard stories about. The tone stops suddenly, and starts quietly and builds in volume.
Again, it better than hearing RAP or bad Country and Western but I don't even know who the singers are or the name for the style of music. I am just clueless. It has to have a style or name.
I remember the bad old days of Disco, and Bubblegum music.
So what is that "style" of music called?
