Stupid Love's genre is synthwave, NOT pop/dance/EDM

"Synthwave (also called outrun, retrowave, or futuresynth) is a genre of electronic music and an internet phenomenon influenced by 1980s film soundtracks and video games.

According to musician Perturbator the style is mainly instrumental, and often contains 1980s clichéd elements in the sound such as electronic drums, gated reverb, and analog synthesizer bass lines and leads (Synthwave artists and producers typically use vintage equipment from the early/mid 1980s, as opposed to sampled sounds) - all to resemble tracks from that time period."

-source: professor wikipedia

Pop music stands for popular music, and the pop scene atm is either billie-pop, that same hip hop/trap crap, or tropical pop which always gets a free ticket to the charts

80's bass?  electronic drums?  retro synth?  gated reverb?

Your definition of pop music is grossly outdated :enigma:

Anyways, lyrically, it resembles a pop song. It's definitely a synth-pop dance song.

No, no and no. There's not enough detail and depth in the instrumental to qualify as synthwave. It's just dance-pop.

it literally checks all of the synthwave 'requirements' which i listed :poot:

as 'dance-pop' which is too vague with no real classifications and it's more of a sub-genre

No, it doesn't :toofunny: Where's the synths? Katy's Never Really Over has more synth accents than Stupid Love but I'm sure you won't call that song synthwave :ladyhaha:

Dance-pop is vague, yes, but so is the genre of SL :flop: It's very mildly inspired by synthpop (not synthwave) but it's mostly just a regular pop song that relies on a beat and a few typical chords. It doesn't really have a specific music genre is the right answer.

The cyberpunk style comes hard this year, so it's a good idea to include cyberpunk music on LG6 (synth wave, techno trance and dubstep)
