ABOUT THE GENRE

Britpop

Britpop music is often characterized by infectious pop hooks, energetic guitar, and a joyful energy. It emerged in the mid 1990s as a child of alternative rock and British culture. Iconic Britpop songs such as Oasis's Wonderwall and Blur's Country House featured lo-fi analogue production techniques, creating a distinctive sound of the era. Many other popular Britpop acts continue to influence current Indie Pop today. From Travis' emotive lyrics to Coldplay's melodic anthems, many popular UK bands owe something to their Britpop predecessors. The 90s were also selected for reiving post punk and traditional British pop music that eventually evolved into the psycuadelia and krautrock elements famous today. Whether you dig through forgotten records or looking for fresh vibes from modern artists, finding classics or discovering new sounds for the first time, any fan of pop music can appreciate creativity in music with Britpop at its heart.
