Electropop

Electropop was a particular style of Synthesised pop music which flourished during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Although definitions are difficult Electropop was characterised by a cold harsh computerised electronic sound, which was largely due to the limitations of synthesiser technology of the time.

Elecropop relied on simple repetitive, elecronicaly generated rythms. It differed from later forms of electronic music in that melody was emphasised instead of rythm although this was not always the case.

Groups that can be described as makers of Electropop were.
