Will there be a vaporwave/synthwave equivalent for the 2000s? We've had a lot of 80s and 90s nostalgia for a while and I think it's time to move on to 2000s nostalgia.

"80's nostalgia" in the roaring 20's
Dylan Diaz
the thing i most associate with the 2000s vibe is staying up late at night as a kid to listen to trance and deep house television radio stations and getting really freaked out
Connor Smith
But we've had 80s nostalgia since the mid 2000s. Enough already. I'm sick of it.

>That takes us to the current day, and, at last, to the reasons behind the rule. What drives the cycle isn’t, in the first instance, the people watching and listening; it’s the producers who help create and nurture the preferred past and then push their work on the audience. Though pop culture is most often performed by the young, the directors and programmers and gatekeepers—the suits who control and create its conditions, who make the calls and choose the players—are, and always have been, largely forty-somethings, and the four-decade interval brings us to a period just before the forty-something was born.

What would 2000s nostalgia even sound like?
Boyband rapmetal with the dress aesthetic of the strokes?

In the same way that vaporwave remixes cheesy 80s pop, smooth jazz, and new age music, the 2000s version would remix cheesy corporate Starbuckscore "indie" car commercial music, crunk/ringtone rap, dance pop, buttrock, metalcore, dance punk, dubstep, and electrohouse with samples of Windows XP/Vista sounds.

Probably something like this.
