Every genre is deeply connected to the time it appeared and the events that shaped it.
I don’t expect punk rock to have a resurgence any more than I expect disco music to come back. They had their time and function. They will influence new things to come as did all the stuff that came before.
Having said that, I expect everything will become a mishmash of AI slop, so who knows?

I might like some bluegrass. Iron Horse is a bunch of middle-aged white guys that cover Metallica. Well, that’s where they started, but they’ve expanded.
Creeping Death sounds like something you’d hear in a one-room Kentucky church. Enter Sandman is delightful.
Iron Horse’s banjo picker is a monster.
Check out the Steeldrivers. They have some really good songs.
Disco
Jazz
There’s some great modern jazz coming out of Japan these days. Check out the likes of:
- Hiromi Uehara (and the Trio Project)
- Takuya Kuroda
- Sinsuke Fujieda Group
Also, UK too, check out the Ezra Collective.
Plenty of modern jazz out there, it’s just not mainstream anymore.
Jazz never left.
Clowncore. We really need to have a clowncore band in Eurovision.
We had a doll from Luxembourg this year. Close enough?
Baroque.
It’s bound to come back any day now…
If it ain’t baroque don’t fix it
Why do you want to know this?
You scare they’re feeding the answers to Grok?
It’s not really a weird question, is it?
On the contrary, to me this is a really weird question, I struggle to guess why anyone would want to know what a random bunch of strangers think about this.
Becaaussee I like music and wanted to have an interesting discussion?
Fair enough. Though the format of this community is quite literally finding out what a bunch of strangers on the internet think about a given subject.
The blues
That would be so excellent! I became a fan of the blues going out to clubs: the rock bands would crank volume to painful levels and mumble the lyrics, but I could actually hear the blues, listen to the blues, grow to like the blues
Late-90s/early-00s-style lo-fi indiepop with glockenspiels/Casio keyboards (or similar cheapass-sounding synths with a nicely skronky/angular timbre) and the odd trumpet/brass section
Any bands like this you suggest?
Beulah, Eggstone, Lacto-Ovo, Mid-State Orange, a lot of bands on a German label named Apricot Records
Grunge
Buffa and other comic opera. More dumb plots, less experimental music!
Whatever type of music the Little Rascals played.
My producer, Neigsendoig, and I both want bossa nova to have a resurgence. Neigsendoig had already produced several bossa nova compositions (you can find them on his YouTube channel, [at]Neigsendoig).
That’s the same vein as happy hardcore, which Neigsendoig also produced too. I’m producing a continuation of his HHC album, The VST Test, per his request.
Where’s my 4th wave of ska??
Last I heard, Gwen Stefani had custody of it 🤷🏻
I would love a new wave of happy hardcore.
Neigsendoig and I are trying to bring it back. Sendo (Neigsendoig) even considered DJing a set in VRChat with some HHC group, though we’re very limited in how we can do that.
Dave Rogers tried to bring it back at one point too, he released bossa nova versions of some of his most popular songs but I don’t think they took off as well as they should’ve
Swing!!! I don’t mind jazz with quirky time signatures, but where’s the dance gone?
Electro swing is now (still) a thing. It’s out there on the internet. As with most of these genres based on some manner of synthetic zeitgeist, be prepared to be exposed to a lot of anime tiddies in the artwork, though.
I’m with the other comment, Electro Swing is very popular. If you’ve ever got the chance to go to a Parov Stelar concert don’t even think about not going! Top 5 concerts I’ve ever seen easily.
I’ve listened to a bunch of Caravan Palace, and I’m sure Parov Stelar is in some playlists. I never thought about going to a gig, I do a bunch of Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox, but they’re general jazz.
Edit, I’ve got All Night- Parov Stelar in my favourites.
Fortunately due to living in Belgium I’m in close proximity to some of the best festivals in the world. I saw them supported by a live orchestra at Dour Festival. But it was very similar to this performance a year later!
Great choice. Big Band in general would be nice, too.
