In answer to your closing rhetorical, I'd like the throw a curveball: Corporate Businesswave, the genre of truly creative artists riffing on soulless corporate jingle culture. Plenty of 80s/90s aesthetic to go around here. I personally love "Money Can Buy Happiness" and "Mark to Market" by New Century, "Pump and Dump" by Shadow and Mirrors, and "Insider Trading" by Michael Weber.
A good jumping-off point: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/39pqsBTsb9UNYv1dXbZpff?si=b1ea5573a6874a1e https://open.spotify.com/playlist/39pqsBTsb9UNYv1dXbZpff?si=...
- IggleSniggle 5y agoThank you for this!
- huskyr 5y agoProbably the most famous example of this genre is James Ferraro's "Far Side Virtual", which can be listened to in its entirety here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pd-uSm8ittU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pd-uSm8ittU
- kfarr 5y agoThanks for sharing, favorite so far is also "Money Can Buy Happiness". The song would be perfectly at home in the GTA Vice City soundtrack including lyrics like: "More is more and less is less, money can buy happiness" "Life can be so effortless, money can buy happiness"

- twic 5y agoI work in finance, so this playlist has been highly entertaining, thanks. Especially when one of my trader colleagues pops up on voice chat to unwittingly duet with Gordon Gekko.
