The oldest Gen Z is 29 now,The oldest Gen A is 17.What kind of music do we think Gen A will be making during their coming of age in the next few years? And now that Gen Z is leaving behind their years of peak creativity what did we think of their musical run?
>>129798711What is this stupid fucking image
Looks pretty bad. Alphies are into music even less than zoomers
I'm fucking tired of everything being about generations. They were literally made up by marketing companies to sell us things. I can't believe how big of a thing they are now and how many people make it a genuine part of their personality, it drives me insane
>>129798753Still useful to categorise groups of people and understand them.
>>129798753People with autism tend to want to categorize things whether it's warranted or not, which is why generational shit is so prevalent on the internet
>>129798744>>129798769>What is this stupid fucking imageModern generational categories are the product of overpaid marketing grads artistically compartmentalizing people into neat, easy categories so as to more easily sell them useless crap.>>129798753>how many people make it a genuine part of their personalityIt's like homosexuality. If someone makes being a Gen Zed or a Gen X or a Baby Boomer or whatever a serious part of their identity, they have literally nothing else going for them that their age range is something they're genuinely proud of.
>>129798711>what did we think of their musical run?GOD AWFULHope Gen A can turn it around
>>129798753this also did you know Santa Claus was invented by Coca Cola?? It's all just corporations and marketing man, it's bullshit
Gen X had better music than Millennials didGen Z also had better music than Millennials didMillennials just can't stop losing, but maybe Gen As music will be worse so they can get a win
>>129798791That’s not true, it’s a myth
>>129798814>Gen Z also had better music than Millennials didprovide literally one good Gen Z music
>>129798753Every generation in history was squaked over the "young generation"
>>129798753>>129798791>muh corporations!!! money le bad!!!Shut the fuck up and shove your lukewarm, milquetoast takes up your ass, leftypol. Here, this is your theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLVyE2Zv1OI

>>12979871117 year olds are Gen Z, the oldest Gen Alpha is about 16-15 now
>>129798850Millennial music is objectively the worst, this isn't even a contest dude>Stomp Clamp Hey>Max Martin>Imagine Dragons>Black KeysAll complete trash
>>129798872Generic pop slop>>129798902ok so give a good Gen Z song

>>129798753cannibals are cunts tho
>>129798711>What kind of music do we think Gen A will be making during their coming of age in the next few years?Nigga, Gen Alpha music is already here https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xyc88DSN8Xs
>>129798940Shit trust fund band. I'm still right, gen z music is objectively fucking trash. Kill yourself zoomer shitbag.
is there a generation brain jak like the political direction brain one?
>>129798999Go back to Fleet Foxes or whatever soilennial core you like you cuck>>129799011make one yourself you lazy asshole
>>129798769autists have legitimately ruined the internet. they should all be put in camps with no internet access.
Nope. Here are the official generational brackets:>Lost generation: c. 1880's - 1904>WWII generation: 1905 - 1924>Silent generation: 1925 - 1944>Baby Boomers: 1945 - 1964>Gen-X: 1965 - 1981>Millennials: 1982 - 2001>Zoomers: 2002 - 2021>'Gen-A'/Generation Alpha: 2022 - presentTherefore, the oldest zoomers are 24, and the oldest alphas are 4.
>>129799041good bait
>>129798902Literally the biggest genre for millennials was the whole umbrella of EDM, it influenced everything and resulted in tons of happy, upbeat and fun pop tracks. Gen Z is depressing shit in comparison.
>>129799031>make one yourself you lazy assholeno
>>129799088EDM is more Gen X. Millennials just ended up co-opting it
>>129798994That's just the modern day version of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7uVVImPhdY
>>129799098Maybe in europe where its always been popular but in the USA it only really became a thing in like 2009.
>>129798711the oldest gen a is 14
>>129798711>The oldest Gen A is 17.?

>>129798753this
>>129798711nothing
>>129798711I don't care. Shut the fuck up
>>129798814>Gen Z also had better music than Millennials did
>>129798970If we judge this in terms of target public rather than the age of the music makers, then millennial music included:The Strokes White StripesArctic MonkeysThe Last Shadow PuppetsVampire WeekendDavendra BarnhartNeutral Milk HotelAtmosphereSimian Mobile DiscoEdward Sharpe & The Magnetic ZerosPeter Bjorn and John Black KidsCrystal CastlesThe Faintelectroclash (Miss Kittin, Soviet, Fischerspooner)Oneohtrix Point Neverhypnagogic pop vaporwaveInterpolToro y MoiThe XXMGMTMetronomyM.I.A.Jai PaulM83Birdy Nam NamNicolas JaarThe KnifeHot ChipLa Roux
>>129802349you forgot deadmau5
>>129802354I'd also include some of the 00s stuffGod Lives UnderwaterThe WalkmenSkrillexLinkin ParkFrankmusikArchitecture in HelsinkiKlaxonsThen there's of course a lot of pop/mainstream stuff I haven't included, some of it occasionally ok.
>>129802410Like I didn't mention The Killers, which straddles this space between mainstream and niche/indie scenes
>>129802349If you think about it, the creative force behind Bilie Eilish is her millennial bro, even though their public is mostly zoomersAlso bands like Idles, King Gizzard, they're late millennials
Never understood these generation wars. People have made good music in every single modern generation. Judging from the replies here though, this board doesn't know shit about music. Cameron Winter? Arctic Monkeys? Absolute garbage and super boring mainstream.
>>129802349Half of this list is faggy as fuck
>>129799031At least Fleet Foxes is better than anything Gen Z shat out. Cope
>>129806029Homophobe
>>129798711Gen A will be a bit of a mess culturally.Here's your trends/pressure centers:>aging society and smaller demographic weight meaning the dominant artists continue to skew nostalgic>increasing prevalence of AI art eating the middle 50% of "mid" art - this may/will incentive artists and consumers to some kind of "authenticity" or walled garden communities>Millennial nostalgia>continued social atomisation and frustration with IoE and tech prevalence leading to veneration of rustic/lo-fi culture (think repeat of 2012 millennial hipsterism) and community anchored culture (like millennial hipsterism this will probably end up more culturally visible than it will be a sincere lifestyle mode) - Zoomers have already presaged this backlash with the mass popularisation of alts/burners as a lifestyle choice and the fact anxiety towards the social media panopitcon is so legibile in zoomer culture means that anxiety will be reacted to in some way>Cultural atomisation will continue, aided by AI which can increasingly generate tailored content, meaning the commons shrink and content platforms prioritise engagement over fashion, so nostalgia acts will continue to rattle around with increased relevancy like they do now - the fact nostalgia acts also provide more "training data", as well as increased visibility, means you're going to be swamped with a billion robot Paul McCartneys for every Jeff Rosenstock sound-a-like output.
>>129799137electronic music was shit by 2009, it peaked in the 90s
>>129802349holy shit didn't know that millennial music was this awful but seeing it all listed together. Music died with Gen X
>>129802349>>129802410You just listed a bunch of Gen X bands that happened to be popular with millennials
>>129802349target age doesn't matter also there's way better examples then that most of that stuff. Saetia, The Fall Of Troy, most of the 2010s Hip Hop scene. Comb through it.>>129809515It's mixed if you actually knew what they were.>>129799041kill yourself
>>129798711>the oldest Gen Z is 29>The oldest Gen A is 17wrongyou had one job
>>129798814all true except gen A will also beat baldlennials
>>129799031Fleet Foxes > le epic XD quirky shitty art punk trust fund band
Millennials have Joanna Newsom, Julia Holter, and SOPHIE(rip).
>>129798814Soillennials have to be the most pathetic generation to ever exist. Utterly impotent disrespected by all who came before and after them.
