I think they are claiming there are no waves because it doesn't need it, the 90s never really left
well nothing ever fucking left, it's called object permanence. Stoners have put posters of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of The Moon" and pretentious assholes* have listened to Bach since they existed. "Retro waves" are when these things become more significant than their usual levels of cultural impact and human ritual.
*I include myself in this group, Bach kicks ass.
Do you know why Mozart killed all his chickens?
Because they all went “BACH BACH, BACH BACH!”
Thank you, I’ll be here all week!
baroque for life my brother, it never really left, now it lives on every progrock band and 80s videogame composers
