Futurepop is an electronic dance music genre, incorporating influences from synthpop (such as song structure and vocal style), uplifting trance (grandiose and arpeggiated synthesizer melodies and fast-paced synthesizer beats), and EBM (the worldviews presented in lyrics). The term was coined by Ronan Harris, of VNV Nation, and Stephan Groth, of Apoptygma Berzerk, to describe their style.[1]
