Music "Movements"


Post modern music is the adaption to music with society going more modern. Post modern music does not describe a type of music in general, but an actual era. One of the most famous groups that came from this era is U2. Who have recently became the world’s highest paid musicians. This was an Irish Rock band, who really spread the popularity of rock across the world.
Another era of music was the house influencers.  One of the largest groups to come out of this musical era was daft punk. Daft Punk first started their group in Paris in the early 90’s. They pushed French EDM sound of music, making EDM one of the most popular genres of music in current day.
In the 70’s, disco was an extremely popular form of music. Unfortunately, this is one of the genres that have seemed to die down with modern times. One of the most influencial artists to come out of this musical era was Van Mccoy. Van was very musically talented being a songwriter, singer, and conductor in the music industry. Unfortunately, Van Mccoy died shortly after the widespread popularity of his music.
The producer/DJ culture has came more into effect with the widespread popularity of EDM. One of the most popular artists to come out of this culture has been Avicii. Avicii was a good example of all that adds up to this culture of music. He was a DJ, producer, and remixer.  He really shaped EDM remixes and was the reason for the widespread form of this music in recent years. Unfortunately, he passed away due to a drug overdose.
The ninetees was a decade filled with a variety of different genres. One of the largest and most influencial groups to come out of this decade was radiohead. This is an English rock band that gained heavy popularity in the ninetees due to their unique and different rock sound. They changed the sound of modern rock as an influencer.
