 Ah . . . 90s music.
This is the decade that saw music go digital. Gone are the
days of cassette tapes. 90s music was in new formats and
available to share online like never before.
The 1990s were one of the most diverse, fractured and explosive musical
decades since the 60s. While things stated off strong for hair metal, bands
like Bon Jovi and Metallica soon found themselves losing their audience to a
different brand of loud, aggressive, but introspectively emotional music
that would be labeled 'alternative.' Nirvana, Pearl Jam and the Smashing
Pumpkins were the new rock royalty, shattering radio formats and giving
teens a fresh outlet for their angst. The
Grunge movement
and the Seattle
scene dominated both music and
fashion at the
dawn of the 90s
.

The decade wouldn't just be filled with the sound of screaming guitars.
Rave and electronic beats would nudge their way into the mainstream. 90s pop
music would see a radical transformation of its own, moving
from the scandal of lip-syncers Milli Vanilli to an explosion of teen idols
named
Britney
, Christina and Justin. The Spice Girls would join forces with
the Backstreet Boys and ‘N Sync to force feed sugary-sweet sounds to the
masses. By the end of the decade, however, rap music and hip hop culture
would achieve an almost total dominance over the record industry, lead by
artists like Notorious B.I.G., Jay Z and Puff Daddy. This fusion of 1990s
pop sensibilities and street cred transformed the face of music forever.
