1. Cloud-rap
Many people believe that rap - it's songs exclusively about a successful career in the criminal world and extremely diverse sexual life. These topics are, of course, immortal, but everything evolves, and rap is no exception. So in this genre appeared their existential heroes.
Bones American and a Swede Yung Lean Cloud pioneers not rap, but, perhaps, one of the most interesting representatives of the genre, if we take those who have achieved impressive popularity.
2. Trap
Even if you do not listen to music, this genre you definitely met somewhere in the mall or something.
"Dry" drum machines from the 80's, angry rhythm, drug traffickers in gold chains with the word SWAG... Over the past a few years all this has had time to get bored so that in 2017 Trap can be perceived only in a humorous context.
3. Lo-Fi
Strictly speaking, Lo-Fi is not a genre, a sound symbol that is decimated by zatortuyu audiocassette. Well, or a cheap tape recorder. In general, for all that has a low playback quality. What for? The answer is simple: it is pleasant to people.
There are both guitar Lo-Fi-music, and Lo-Fi-electronics. For example, in 2016 from the underground rapidly broke Lo-Fi House, immediately winning the lounge area around the world: all the same on the dance floor kind of music is not always rolls.
4. Future Bass
Genre Future Bass exists even with zero years, but gained widespread popularity in the last couple of years. This music is isolated through fractured knee DJ beats and the most "futuristic" sound (pardon the tautology).
One of the pioneers of the genre in Russia, and indeed one of the most famous Russian electronics is Pixelord. If you find that there is a future building your generation, do not worry: a year or two fashion and this genre will be held.
5. Chillwave
The aesthetics of the 80's and 90's, mineral water without gas, clips captured on tape camera - it's all about the music Chillwave. The bottom line is the name of a genre - it sounds ideal to about anything not to think.
Although the peak of the popularity of the genre has passed a few years ago, Chillwave and thought to die. He became more electronic, and now you can listen to 24/7:
6. Vaporwave
In May 2017 the musician with difficult pronounceable pseudonym Oneohtrix Point Never received an award at the Cannes Film Festival for best soundtrack. The present name of the musician - Daniel Lopatin. He is the son of Russian immigrants living in New York, as well as one of the most popular DJs in the world, playing experimental music.
Award given for recorded with Iggy Pop soundtrack for the film "Good time."
Daniel Lopatin is one of the pioneers of the genre Vaporwave, which is close to the aesthetics of Chillwave, but more experimental. Music Vaporwave - is something like a sad audiokollazha of samples cut from hits, commercials and movies 80s and 90s.
7. New Russian Wave
"Why here alone electronics, but where is the live music?" - it is reasonable to ask you.
A few years ago in Russia, suddenly there was a new and interesting rock music, and in large numbers. The flagship of the movement was the festival "Pain" - if you want to know what a rock band is now popular, just look who is there stands this year.
And this is just the most interesting bands and performers of the new Russian wave, from the point of view of the author:
