Retro pop is a genre that blends the nostalgic charm of past musical eras—particularly the 1960s to 1980s—with modern production sensibilities. Drawing from the melodic structures, vocal harmonies, and instrumentation of vintage soul, funk, surf rock, Motown, and synth-pop, retro pop often features lush arrangements, analog textures, and catchy hooks. While it nods heavily to the aesthetics of the past—such as reverb-drenched guitars, horn sections, or vintage keys—it presents these sounds with crisp, contemporary polish. The genre evokes a sense of timelessness, appealing to both nostalgia and fresh musical creativity.
