Animation
Animation music, alongside the rise of animated films in the early 20th century, became a delightful concoction of whimsical melodies and imaginative storytelling, often courtesy of Disney and their ilk. The genre sounds like an orchestra and a playful fever dream had a baby, where catchy tunes dance about like cartoon characters, evoking everything from joy to a touch of nostalgic melancholy. This charming style has influenced countless soundtracks, leaving fans with the delightful notion that their lives could use a theme tune, preferably one involving a jaunty piano melody and possibly some anthropomorphic animals.
