20th Century
20th Century music is like a musical buffet, beginning around 1900 in a burst of genres that makes one's head spin, from jazz to rock and everything in between. It's characterised by an eclectic mix of styles and the joyous chaos of innovation, often sounding like a group of musicians hopelessly trying to agree on a key whilst secretly enjoying the mayhem. Crucially, it laid the groundwork for the audacious musical experiments that would keep teenagers baffling their parents for decades to come.
