    That’s not that weird though.

    The sound or design choices that come to define a decade, often pre-date it.

    Eg. House music originated in the 80s but became mainstream in the 90s. So if I popped on a random 80s house track, if you don’t know your stuff, you’re likely to think it’s 90s.

      Yeah, often sounds progress over several years and you might have someone from one decade that was a groundbreaker, and then tons of bands 5 years later sound like them.
