Alte music is a genre that emerged in Nigeria in the 2010s, characterized by its fusion of traditional Yoruba sounds, Afrobeats, and Western influences. Defining musical characteristics include laid-back, atmospheric production, often featuring a blend of electronic and organic instrumentation, such as guitars, percussion, and synthesizers. Vocal styles range from soulful, melodic delivery to spoken word and rap, often incorporating Nigerian Pidgin English and Yoruba lyrics. Alte's origins are rooted in the Nigerian indie music scene, where artists began experimenting with alternative sounds, drawing from their cultural heritage and international influences. The genre gained popularity around 2015-2018, with its cultural significance lying in its ability to push the boundaries of traditional Nigerian music, providing a platform for artistic expression and storytelling. Alte's unique blend of traditional and modern elements sets it apart from other Afrobeats sub-genres, such as Fuji and Highlife, while its experimental nature draws parallels with global indie and alternative scenes.
