Retro

Retro music is a vibrant genre that fuses various elements from past musical eras, infusing them with a modern twist to create a nostalgic yet fresh auditory experience. It draws from the exuberant sounds of vintage funk, disco, and early pop, often characterized by upbeat rhythms, lush instrumentation, and catchy hooks. Artists like Kendra Morris and the Boogie Wonder Band evoke memories of the '70s and '80s, using groovy basslines, brass sections, and soulful vocals to capture the essence of those decades. Fusing global influences with these classic sounds, retro artists often experiment with modern production techniques to craft something both familiar and innovative, appealing to a diverse audience.
