Retro-futuristic

Retro-futuristic music blends nostalgic elements of past decades—especially the '80s and '90s—with a forward-looking, innovative sound. It often features glossy synthesizers, funky basslines, dreamy reverb, and intricate electronic production that evokes both vintage technology and an imagined future. The genre pulls from synthwave, funk, house, and city pop, creating everything from cinematic soundscapes to danceable grooves. While some artists lean into hazy nostalgia, others infuse glitchy, cyberpunk aesthetics, crafting music that feels both familiar and fresh—like a memory of the future that never was.
