Подробнее о видео

Has musical innovation slowed to the point where no significant new genres have emerged? Or was the decade, in fact, full of innovation; you just had to know where to look? Well if the length of this video is any indication, it turns out it's the latter. There were a TON of new genres, more than we could include even in a 1 hour+ video.
