One hundred years of music that helped shape the world.
Sounds that walk up the street, walk into your heart, and connect generations. From intimate love songs to choruses that make entire halls sing along, from one guitar chord to a musical revolution.
POP is more than music. It is memory and renewal at the same time: the soundtrack of your youth, a voice against injustice, or just that beat that brings everyone together.
From the jazzy crooners of the 20s and 30s to the hip-swaying revolution of Elvis. From the timeless melodies of The Beatles to the dreamy sound worlds of Pink Floyd. From synthpop and new wave to the raw grunge of Nirvana. And further, to the electronic beats of the 2000s and the boundless pop of Billie Eilish. From soul to punk, from disco to funk, from dance to electronic pop. A trip around the world, from America to Australia.
One thing remains: music that touches, connects, and continues to resonate.
