The Gen Alpha Melody

1 post in this topic

Kill meee, now I have another reason to cringe when at the gym.

 

Some observations I've found myself:

  • So much gen alpha music (and probably earlier) steals whole songs, perhaps modulates and changes the rhythm and places a generic EDM beat on top. Like purely shameless stealing. The last example I heard of this was with The Sound Of Silence cover by Disturbed (which is itself a cover, so it's already recycled); and it's so bad to listen to because they sped it up so much the vibrato sounds like something from an Alvin and the Chipmunks YouTube cover.
  • "Don't you worry about a thing, everything is gonna be alright" lyrics is everywhere and it drives me beyond the realms of insanity.
  • Lyrics about partying and getting drunk (not a purely gen alpha thing but still).
  • Songs where you just know some producer used a list to check off the most formulaic ways to create a song that maximizes commercial appeal.
