As our musical tastes have changed over the last 20 years

2000-2005 years: the end of an era of nu-metal, R & B-pop and MTV

In the early 2000s, continued to exist genres of the 1990s. In this style of heavy music was nu metal. The most outstanding works at the time, you can call the album Iowa group and Slipknot Untouchables by Korn. Nevertheless, nu-metal was living out the last good years: soon these and similar groups or adjusted to the changing preferences of the audience, or disappeared from the radar.

Musical tastes significantly determined by radio and television, especially the channel «MTV Russia." Due to it, our listeners so loved group linkin Park, Evanescence, HIM and The Rasmus.

The world has been popular pop-punk. MTV played music conductor Blink 182, Sum 41 and early Avril Lavigne.

"Our radio" by Mikhail Kozyrev determined Russian rock of the new decade - about the same that fans of the genre listened until now. Admirers found work "Spleen", "B-2" and "The King and the Clown" - in the early 2000s, this music has been especially popular with fans yesterday of the "Cinema" and "Nautilus." One of the main stars of the era - Zemfira.

Serious changes took place in pop music: split up the main boy band of the 1990s and the fashion on the R & B and soul. On MTV sounded Cry Me a River - it played Justin Timberlake, just left the 'N Sync band.

No less successfully mixed tradition of R & B and pop music artists such as Craig David, Usher and recently began his creative career of Rihanna. In 2003, Beyoncé Knowles of Destiny's Child released her debut solo album Dangerously in Love.

Second hit album after Crazy In Love — Baby Boy. And here it is possible to trace the trend: in pop music are increasingly began to meet the features of the eastern ethnic and Reggaeton - a genre based on the reggae and popular in Latin America. Fashion for the synthesis of styles is saved and now in the genre of Latin American pop anthems packs are written for the football championships, and hits like Despacito confidently occupy the top of the charts.

Major domestic pop stars of that time - the controversial duo t. A.T.u. On their account full of hits album "200 in the opposite", some popular videos and the third place at the "Eurovision-2003".

Hip-hop in the 2000s has not yet managed to become the most progressive genre, but still was popular. Major Western rappers for our listeners - Jay-Z and Eminem. Domestic - Decl, "Casta", "Ellipsis".

, 2006-2010: Emo fashion in the English indie music

Emo - last mass subculture time. Its representatives have found each other through the icons, ska checkered clothes, low-alcohol drink bottle in his hand and, most importantly, for a certain music in the player.

This music had nothing to do with emo previous eras (the term itself appeared as early as 1980). We have a number of branches of the genre, but Emo music of the 2000s was built on melodic singing, alternating with extreme vocals and heavy guitar riffs. Start the trend was laid in the first half of the 2000s bands such as Alexisonfire, The Used and Thursday, but the genre is completely unwound by 2007, which became a meme.

On MTV when it was possible to hear less extreme groups such as My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy.

Patriotic music also began to go to the people through the channel A-One, CD-collection "The sea of ​​emotions" subcultural concerts and the first broadband Internet. In playlists Emo kidov played "Origami», Amatory, Jane Air, Stigmata, «IdeYa Fix», Marakesh and Tenkorr.

The era of emo was short-lived: the young men quickly tired of heavy guitars and maudlin lyrics. Replaced by indie - the name given to a neat, prosperous and dance music. For this purpose we have already prepared the ground: the first releases came out Franz Ferdinand and The Killers. Their tracks and became the first indie anthems fans.

Along with the style of domestic teams you took the tongue. This has led to great bands, sounding "as if not from Russia." These include the On-The-Go, Tesla Boy and Pompeya.

William Bevan, more commonly known as by Burial, released in 2007 the album Untrue. This release was one of the shocks to revive dubstep - a genre of electronic music with a distinctive bass. Especially popular was Skrillex - dubstep solo project Sonny Moore left the emo band From First to Last.

For 2011-2015: Russian rap to the masses and the new Russian wave

It marked the fifth anniversary of the mass displacement of interest from guitar music to rap. It establishes the principle of rap new school: the rejection of the canons in the creation of bits edlibov use (for example, "Yak" and "Eschkere"), communication sub-genres of the genre with trendy attributes, and an endless stream of freshmenov that offer a fresh look at music.

He continued to grow in popularity and seep into popular music Trap - a sub-genre of hip-hop based on the sounds of drum machines, deep bass and cymbals-hetah.

One of the main figures of the pop music era became Adele - British singer, whose single Rolling in the Deep seven weeks held in the first position Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In Lana Del Rey released the album Born to Die. The self-titled single, as well as tracks Dark Paradise and Summertime Sadness were key songs early 2010's.

Daft Punk returned after a long hiatus with album Random Access Memories. After his release French duo once again disappeared from radar, but Get Lucky He became one of the main tracks as the 2013, and the entire decade.

Also at this time we began to talk about the phenomenon of Ukrainian pop. Ivan Dorn, "Time and Glass", the Moon, Quest Pistols - songs of these artists fall in domestic charts and influenced the image of the whole Russian-language pop music. Journalists believe EsquireWhy is the best pop music - in Ukraine, raves - in Tbilisi, and the coolest clips - to KazakhstanThat this is due to the historical democratic Ukrainian music radio stations and media and, therefore, with a lot of artists who are ready to experiment.

One of the most important guitar album early 2010's - AM from the Arctic Monkeys. This is not just a talented hooligan indie music, and real rock stadium - lively and interesting. Hits were songs Do I Wanna Know? and R U Mine ?.

2016-2019 years: the rise of strimingovyh services and music in all its diversity

Now the music is almost can not be imposed by means of radio and TV. Sometimes it is enough just to download a track on SoundCloud or videos on YouTube. Such a scenario has led to the success of pop singer and rapper Clairo XXXTentacion.

Similar cases exist in the music of Russia and the CIS. Successful video, a pair of mentions in the media - and the conditional "Tartar" group "AIGEL" or "FISH" Alyona Alyona become hits.

Another example of a rapidly soaring star - Monetochka with the album "Coloring for adults."

Forget about the artists have become even faster. So, for example, it happened to the "Valentin Strykalo". And the album of the more recently the main rapper Oxxxymiron countries expect much less than three years ago.

Main pop star of the new generation - Billy Aylish. The approach to the sound, melodic hooks and lyrics, based on reflection of a teenager, found an echo in every part of the worldWhere there are listening to pop music.

Orientation to the Western group and the English language in the songs of national teams did not pass the test of time. Some still continue to work in this way, but the popularity of the new Russian wave, which appeared in the mid-2010s - a phenomenon more obvious. For example, Tesla Boy is now performs songs in their native language, and one of the most talked about and popular in Russia in the West, local groups become St. Petersburg's Shortparis.

Democratic internet defines trends and sound-producing. Not necessarily sit on the release for years and hone each sound. For example, the debut album "Molly went" would be considered crude, at any time, in addition to our own, but this does not prevent him from becoming successful.

One of the most popular hip-hop projects late 2010s became the group "Mushroom".

We live in interesting times, in which all the genres of the past decades. Many of the styles are changing, go out of fashion and come back. In this case, indicate the trend is becoming increasingly difficult: there is no single horn speaker that made listening to today. Internet helps shoot projects, which yesterday no one heard, and therefore, ahead of only the more interesting.
